There are many parameters affecting the amount of removed rust on the steel surface during ultrasonic cleaning. This article presents the experimental study results to determine the value range of some paratmeters of machining process to ensure the amount of removed rust on the steel surface with great value. Tests were performed in two different detergent solution media of without using acid and using acid. The reasonable value ranges of machine power, machining time, distance from steel plate to ultrasonic transducer (called machining distance) and detergent solution concentration have been determined. From the results achieved in this paper, the development direction for the next studies has also been proposed.

Ultrasonic steel surface cleaning technology is increasingly playing an important role in many different fields. The determination of the influence of the machining parameters on the amount of removed rust on the steel surface is important in the selection of these parameters to increase the machining productivity. In this study, we conducted tests to determine the influence of machining parameters on the amount of removed rust on the steel surface. Tests were performed according to Box-Behnken matrix in two cases: Acids are used or not used in cleaning solutions. In the absence of the use of acids, the selected parameters were the input parameters of the test including machine power, cleaning time and the distance from the steel surface to the ultrasonic head (referred to as the machining distance). Four parameters have been selected as the input parameters when using acids in the detergent solution, including machine power, machining distance, solution concentration and machining time. Finally, orientation for the next research has also been proposed in this paper.

In material removal processes, determination of optimal machining strategy is a key factor to increase productivity. This situation is gaining more importance when machining components with complex geometry. The current practice in the determination of machining strategy mostly depends on the experience of the machine operator. However, poorly designed machining processes lead to time-consuming and costly solutions. Therefore, the improvement of machining processes plays a vital role in terms of machining costs. In this study, the machining process of a boom-body connector (GGG40) of a backhoe loader was improved. Improvements of toolpaths and cutting conditions of 22 different material removal processes were checked through a CAM software. According to the simulation results, the process plan was rearranged. Besides, some enhancements in casting model were conducted to decrease in the number of machining operations. When compared to current practice, a reduction of 55% in machining time was achieved.

Drilling is a chip machining process widely used in manufacturing .The term drilling includes all methods for making cylindrical holes in a work piece with chip cutting tools. There are many applications where drilling is used, such as drilling holes in PCBs. Robotic systems are used today to perform the drilling process. A problem that affects the use of these systems is the drilling sequence, as there are usually a number of points to visit. The determination of the drilling sequence is similar to the problem of synchronization of movement and travel time. The main objective is to optimize the time and trajectory of the three axes robot equipped with an automatic drill that seeks the best performance. In this paper, we have built a genetic optimization and problem solving algorithms to shorten the machining time to drill a given group of holes and reduce machining costs in order to improve the efficiency of the machining process as well robotic machining with three axes without degradation of the precision of the movement. The results of the experiments show that the proposed approach is feasible and practical. It is particularly useful in planning and scheduling systems for real-time manufacturing processes.

Abstract The application of wire EDM to the machining of cylindrical parts is an emerging research topic. The current research is mainly focused on the machining of micro-cylindrical parts, and there is little research on the general-sized parts. This paper proposes to apply the principle of contour approximation method to the machining of cylindrical parts of general size. First, the basic principle of the contour approximation method is introduced, and the machining process is divided into three parts: roughing, semi-finishing and finishing. Roughing corresponds to polygon cutting. Second, the various indicators of polygon cutting are analyzed. The influence of the number of polygonal sides on the residual height and residual area is analyzed. Two methods are proposed for polygon cutting: sequential cutting and multiple edge cutting. The calculation formulas for the processing volume of the two methods are deduced. By comparing the two methods, it is found that different methods are applicable to different part sizes. At last, machining experiments were carried out. The selection of residual variables and the determination of polygon machining methods are detailed. The process parameters and machining time of each stage are listed. In addition, the measurement results of each stage of the machining are also analyzed.

Abstract A procedure for the enzymatic determination of lecithin and sphingomyelin in aqueous solution is described. The phospholipids are first dissolved in chloroform:methanol (2:1 by vol), the solvent is evaporated, and the residue is redissolved in an aqueous zwitterionic detergent solution. The enzymatic reaction sequences of both assays involve hydrolysis of the phospholipids to produce choline, which is then oxidized to betaine, thus generating hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide is subsequently utilized in the enzymatic coupling of 4-aminoantipyrine and sodium 2-hydroxy-3,5-dichlorobenzenesulfonate, an intensely red color being formed. The presence of a non-reacting phospholipid enhances the hydrolysis of the reacting phospholipid. Thus we added lecithin to the sphingomyelin standards and sphingomyelin to the lecithin standards. This precise procedure may be applicable to determination of lecithin and sphingomyelin in amniotic fluid.

AbstractIt is well-established that the secondary active transporters GltTk and GltPh catalyze coupled uptake of aspartate and three sodium ions, but insight in the kinetic mechanism of transport is fragmentary. Here, we systematically measured aspartate uptake rates in proteoliposomes containing purified GltTk, and derived the rate equation for a mechanism in which two sodium ions bind before and another after aspartate. Re-analysis of existing data on GltPh using this equation allowed for determination of the turnover number (0.14 s−1), without the need for error-prone protein quantification. To overcome the complication that purified transporters may adopt right-side-out or inside-out membrane orientations upon reconstitution, thereby confounding the kinetic analysis, we employed a rapid method using synthetic nanobodies to inactivate one population. Oppositely oriented GltTk proteins showed the same transport kinetics, consistent with the use of an identical gating element on both sides of the membrane. Our work underlines the value of bona fide transport experiments to reveal mechanistic features of Na+-aspartate symport that cannot be observed in detergent solution. Combined with previous pre-equilibrium binding studies, a full kinetic mechanism of structurally characterized aspartate transporters of the SLC1A family is now emerging.

The chip-forming precision machining process plays a significant role in the mechanical technology. In planning of machining operation, it is crucial to supply the information about the possible minimal value of the machining allowance. For the technologist, when planning the machining operation, it is important to define the minimal thickness of cutting layer correctly. This article presents a new method of describing the start of decohesion process in a workpiece, meaning the determination of the minimal thickness of cutting layer based on the AE signal generated in the cutting zone. The research conducted on the turning of an alloy steel and the analysis of the AE signal strength confirmed that the proposed method opens new possibilities in quickening the identification of the minimal thickness of cutting layer under normal machining conditions.

Abstract The determination of the oceanic Moho (or crust-mantle) density contrast derived from seismic acquisitions suffers from severe lack of data in large parts of the oceans, where have not yet been sufficiently covered by such data. In order to overcome this limitation, gravitational field models obtained by means of satellite altimetry missions can be proficiently exploited, as they provide global uniform information with a sufficient accuracy and resolution for such a task. In this article, we estimate a new Moho density contrast model named MDC2018, using the marine gravity field from satellite altimetry in combination with a seismic-based crustal model and Earth’s topographic/bathymetric data. The solution is based on the theory leading to Vening Meinesz-Moritz’s isostatic model. The study results in a high-accuracy Moho density contrast model with a resolution of 1° × 1° in oceanic areas. The numerical investigations show that the estimated density contrast ranges from 14.2 to 599.7 kg/m3 with a global average of 293 kg/m3. In order to evaluate the accuracy of the MDC2018 model, the result was compared with some published global models, revealing that our altimetric model is able to image rather reliable information in most of the oceanic areas. However, the differences between this model and the published results are most notable along the coastal and polar zones, which are most likely due to that the quality and coverage of the satellite altimetry data are worsened in these regions.

The joint roughness coefficient (JRC) of rock joints has the characteristic of scale effect. JRC measured on small-size exposed rock joints should be evaluated by JRC scale effect in order to obtain the JRC of actual-scale rock joints, since field rock joints are hardly fully exposed or well saved. Based on the validity analysis of JRC scale effect, concepts of rate of JRC scale effect and effective length of JRC scale effect were proposed. Then, a graphic method for determination of the effective length of JRC scale effect was established. Study results show that the JRC of actual-scale rock joints can be obtained through a fractal model of JRC scale effect according to the statistically measured results of the JRC of small-size partial exposed rock joints and by the selection of fractal dimension of JRC scale effect and the determination of effective length of JRC scale effect.


: This paper discusses the recent developments in the field of Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) hybrid process. Spark machining is a universally recognised unconventional process, excluding the restriction of having low machining efficiency. To overcome this, various investigations have been made on designing of electrode, types of dielectric medium, variations in input parameters etc. Although material expulsion rate have been found to improve, nonetheless it cannot encounter the requirements of modern industries and the quality of surface is inferior. To increase further the utility of EDM, its hybridization with other process have to be carried out. A hybrid process can reduce the machining time while maintaining better surface and material expulsion rate. In hybrid process, the mechanism of two processes is applied concurrently or consecutively. Although, the performance of combined process is better as compared to the individual processes but hybridization increases the process complexity.
