The distance between Hemse church and the fields of Mästermyr on the Swedish Island of Gotland is about eight kilometers. The distance or rather the proximity between these two places is given importance in this filmed research article. In the 1930s, a farmer found a wooden chest in Mästermyr containing hundreds of forged tools and other artefacts. During a restoration of the Romanesque Hemse church in the 1890s, reused parts of a stave church were discovered in the wooden floor. The hypothetical question that is investigated in this study is whether the tools from Mästermyr were used in the construction of Hemse stave church in the early 1100’s? This filmed article analyzes and compares the traces of toolmarks in Hemse stave church and the woodworking tools from the Märstermyr finding. Through a forensic examination involving 3D scanning with structured light, 3D printing and reconstruction of tools and woodworking procedures, it is revealed that several toolmarks in the stave church correspond to the characteristics of woodworking tools in the Mästermyr find. The tool's shape, dimensions and mode of operation are traced in its negative imprint in the stave church’s oak wood.

AbstractHistorical costumes are part of cultural heritage. Unlike architectural monuments, they are very fragile, which exacerbates the problems of their protection and popularisation. A big help in this can be the digitisation of their appearance, preferably using modern techniques of three-dimensional representation (3D). The article presents the results of the search for examples and methodologies of implementing 3D scanning of exhibited historical clothes as well as the attendant problems. From a review of scientific literature it turns out that so far practically no one in the world has made any methodical attempts at scanning historical clothes using structured-light 3D scanners (SLS) and developing an appropriate methodology. The vast majority of methods for creating 3D models of clothes used photogrammetry and 3D modelling software. Therefore, an innovative approach was proposed to the problem of creating 3D models of exhibited historical clothes through their digitalisation by means of a 3D scanner using structural light technology. A proposal for the methodology of this process and concrete examples of its implementation and results are presented. The problems related to the scanning of 3D historical clothes are also described, as well as a proposal how to solve them or minimise their impact. The implementation of the methodology is presented on the example of scanning elements of the Emir of Bukhara's costume (Uzbekistan) from the end of the nineteenth century, consisting of the gown, turban and shoes. Moreover, the way of using 3D models and information technologies to popularise cultural heritage in the space of digital resources is also discussed.

This article delineates the characterization of the 3D printed MR elastomer through a forced vibration technique in the squeeze mode of operation. An anisotropic hybrid magnetorheological (MR) elastomer is developed via 3D printing. The 3D printed MR elastomer consists of three different materials; magnetic particles, magnetic particles carrier fluid, and an elastomer. MR fluid filaments are encapsulated layer-by-layer within the elastomer matrix using a 3D printer. When a moderately strong magnetic field is applied, the 3D printed MR elastomer changes its elastic and damping properties. The hybrid 3D printed MR elastomer also shows an anisotropic behavior when the direction of the magnetic field is changed with respect to the orientation of the printed filaments. The relative MR effect is higher when the applied magnetic field is parallel to the orientation of the printed filaments. The maximum change in the stiffness is observed to be 65.2% when a magnetic field of 500 mT is applied to the MR elastomer system. This result shows that the new method, 3D printing could produce anisotropic hybrid MR elastomers or possibly other types.

Nowadays, the generally used automatic spraying machines are only suitable for mass products or components. The usage for multi-type and small-batch products is much limited for its time and labor consuming off-line programming. So this paper present a 3D scanning based 4-axies driving automatic spraying machine to overcome the bottle-neck of programming. By the laser installed under the horizontal slid table of the machine a linear structured light is projected on the surface of the work piece. Besides, two cameras are also symmetrically installed on the side of the laser to acquire the image. The real-time images of the camera are acquired into the computer by the image acquisition board. And then a program will process the images and output the featured point of the work pieces. According to these points, a specially designed algorithm based on the spraying principle will find out the trajectory of the spraying gun. Finally, through the PCI based motion control board, the controlling pulses are sending to the controller of the stepper motor. Then the spraying gun can move along the trajectory to painting the work piece.
