The purpose of this article was to evaluate the significance of the influence of five- axis orientation parameters of a toroidal cutter axis and the geometrical parameters of the machined sculptured surface on the intersection of the cut layer in a 5-axis machining. An impact assessment was performed by simulating concave-convex and convex-concave surfaces using a discrete method of direct transformation in a CAD environment. It was shown that only the radius of curvature of the surface in the feed direction and the angle of the tool axis affected the change in the intersection of the cutting layer. Subsequently, experimental tests were conducted that aimed at determining the mathematical models of the influence of these important parameters on the components of the cutting force. The object of the experimental studies was a convex and concave surface of a turbine blade of Inconel 718 alloy. The R300-016B20L-08L Sandvik Coromant toroid cutter was used for the tests. Based on the results of the study it was found that the lead angle in the machining of the convex surface and concave turbine blade should be continuously varied with the change of radius of curvature in the direction of the machined surface profile

AbstractOsseointegration is a fundamental phenomenon of dental implantology. It ensures the stability, the safety and the durability of dental implants and predictable clinical success in long-term. The geometric form of the implant is a defining parameter of osseointegration and implant-bone charge transfer. This is the essential constitutes of this study. In fact, we demonstrate using the finite elements method with tridimensional numerical computations, that the geometrical parameters of the implant conditionate the level and the repartition of the stresses, induced in the cortical bone and the spongy bone during the masticatory process, simulated here by dynamic charging. The effect of several parameters [size and conicity of the implant neck, size and radius of curvature of the implant apex] and the shape of the implant corps on the biomechanical behavior of the bone. The latest was analyzed in terms of variation of the equivalent stress induced in the bone. The purpose of this analysis was the developing of an implant form allowing stress relaxation, during the mastication process, in the living tissue.

Micro-milling is one of the most essential technologies to produce micro components, but due to the size effect, it has many special characteristics and challenges. The process can be characterised by strong vibrations, relatively large run-out and tool deformation, which directly affects the quality of the machined surface. This paper deals with a detailed investigation of the influence of cutting parameters on surface roughness and on the special characteristics of micro-milled surfaces. Several systematic series of experiments were carried out and analysed in detail. A five-axis micromachining centre and a two fluted, coated carbide micro-milling tool with a diameter of 500 µm were used for the tests. The experiments were conducted on AISI H13 hot-work tool steel and Böhler M303 martensitic corrosion resistance steel with a hardness of 50 HRC in order to gain relevant information of machining characteristics of potential materials of micro-injection moulding tools. The effect of the cutting parameters on the surface quality and on the ratio of Rz/ Ra was investigated in a comprehensive cutting parameter range. ANOVA was used for the statistical evaluation. A novel method is presented, which allows a detailed analysis of the surface profile and repetitions, and identify the frequencies that create the characteristic profile of the surface. The procedure establishes a connection between the frequencies obtained during the analysis of dynamics (forces, vibrations) of the micro-milling process and the characterising repetitions and frequencies of the surface.

Laminated Shells

The presence of cut outs at different positions of laminated shell component in marine and aeronautical structures facilitate heat dissipation, undertaking maintenance, fitting auxiliary equipment, access ports for mechanical and electrical systems, damage inspection and also influences the dynamic behaviour of the structures. The aim of the present study is to establish a comprehensive perspective of dynamic behavior of laminated deep shells (length to radius of curvature ratio less than one) with cut-out by experiments and numerical simulation. The glass epoxy laminated composite shell has been prepared in the laboratory by resin infusion. The experimental free vibration analysis is carried out on laminated shells with and without cut-out. The mass matrix is developed by considering rotary inertia in a lumped mass model in the numerical modeling. The results obtained from numerical and experimental studies are compared for verification and the consistency between mode shapes is established by applying modal assurance criteria.

In this study, we propose the simultaneous measurement method of the bidirectional reflection distribution function (BRDF) and the radius of curvature by using pattern illumination. For nonplanar objects, the angle of reflection light changes according to the surface normal angle of curved object. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the effects of curved surfaces when measuring the BRDF on non-planar surfaces. We suppose a convex surface that can be represented by a constant radius of curvature. The pattern of illumination was generated by placing the illumination mask with pattern apertures in the incident light path of the BRDF measurement apparatus in which the incident light is collimated light. We developed the measurement apparatus. We measured four types of sample with different BRDFs on three different radiuses of curvature. The results showed that the BRDF and the radius of curvature can be measured simultaneously by using the pattern illumination.

Background: The medial femoral trochlea (MFT) osteochondral flap is employed for reconstruction of unsalvageable scaphoid proximal pole nonunions. The convex surface of the cartilage-bearing proximal trochlea is used to replace the similarly contoured proximal scaphoid and articulate with the concave scaphoid fossa of the radius. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) comparison of the shape of the MFT as it relates to the native proximal scaphoid has not been previously performed. Our study aimed to quantifiably compare the shape of the MFT, proximal scaphoid, and scaphoid fossa. Methods: Using imaging processing software, we measured radius of curvature of the articular segments in MRI scans of 10 healthy subjects’ wrists and knees. Results: Compared with the scaphoid fossa, average ratio of the radius of circumference of the proximal scaphoid was 0.79 and 0.78 in the coronal and sagittal planes, respectively. Compared with the scaphoid fossa, average ratio of the radius of circumference of the MFT was 0.98 and 1.31 in the coronal and sagittal planes, respectively. The radius of curvature of the MFT was larger than the proximal scaphoid, in the coronal and sagittal planes. In the coronal plane, the MFT radius of curvature is nearly identical to the scaphoid fossa, a closer match than the scaphoid itself. In the sagittal plane, the radius of curvature of the MFT was larger than the radius of curvature of the scaphoid fossa. Conclusions: Our data suggest that the radius of curvature, in the sagittal and coronal planes, of the MFT and proximal scaphoid is disparate.
