A new dimension measuring method for the measurement of diameter of an object has been developed using laser triangulation. The 3-D data of an object was calculated from the 2dimensional image information obtained by the laser stripe using the laser triangulation. The system can measure the diameter of hole not only in a normal plane but also in an incline plane. We can experiment with magnification that is optimized according to size of object using zoom lens. In this paper, the theoretical formula and calibration of the system were described. The measuring precision of the system was investigated by experiment.

In many metal forming processes, it is common to use stress rings for reducing elastic deformation and failures of forming dies. But, shrink fit of dies inner diameter of die insert, machining is reuqired after shrink fit processes. The reduction of inner diameter can be predicted by the analysis of elastic-plastic finite element method. The dimension of dies before shrink fit can be determined to minimize or remove machining after shrink fit processes by deformation analysis of die. The computation of contacting stresses along die surface was analyzied by rigid plasitic finite element method, and data were interpolated by the contact search algorithm. In this paper, we propose the analysis method of forging dies after shrink fit and forming to improve dimensional accuracy of final products.

In this study, the nose of cam in the automobile engine was modelled into circular disk to analyze the torsional vibration of the cam shaft. The distance between disks was fixed, but the diameter of disks was changed. The torsional vibration of the cam shaft was studied experimentally by the motion of the modelled disk with changing the disk diameter. And the sizes of the modelled disk were selected not to show the natural frequencies over all the experimental ranges. The torsional vibration meter used in this study has a laser system with non-contact measurement method, which can measure both torsional angular vibration velocity and torsional angular vibration displacement simultaneously. The Experimental analysis shows that the characteristics of the torsional vibration in the horizontal rotating shaft can be considerably affected by the arrangement of the modelled disks.

The aim of this study is to provide fundamental information for the development of Semi-Active Damper Using Magnetic fluid. To achieve the aim, the damping effect of magnetic fluid is investigated by experiments that the diameter of inner circular bar and the input amplitude were varied in the magnetic field generated by the permanent magnet and the electromagnet coil. From the study, the following conclusive remarks can be made. As the diameter of inner circular bar and input amplitude increase, the damping effect is improved. This is explained by the fact that as the contact area between inner circular bar and magnetic fluid increases, the increase of friction lowers kinematic energy. If the magnetic field is generated, the damping effect is improved. This is explained the assumption that as the intensity of magnetic fluid particle increases, there is virtual mass phenomenon.

Electrostatic printing either it is drop-on-demand or continuous has immense applications in non-contact printing systems such as solar cells, flexible printed circuits, RFIDs and bio applications. In this paper a laboratory manufactured nozzle has been designed for the experimental investigation of electrostatic dripping and atomization of liquid. Dripping and atomization conditions such as voltage, nozzle tip diameter, distance between counter electrode and flowrate has been indentified for the designed nozzle. Furthermore it is also demonstrated that the diameter of a generated droplet could be reduced from a significantly large size to a narrow size distribution which can be controlled by volumetric flow rate and applied voltage. This study will help in classify the conditions between different electrostatic dripping mode such as drop-on-demand formation, jet mode and finally the atomization mode based on the laboratory fabricated nozzle head.

Models for the rate of atomization and deposition of droplets for stratified and annular flow in horizontal pipes are presented. The entrained fraction is the result of a balance between the rate of atomization of the liquid layer that is in contact with air and the rate of deposition of droplets. The rate of deposition is strongly affected by gravity in horizontal pipes. The gravitational settling of droplets is influenced by droplet size: heavier droplets deposit more rapidly. Model calculation and simulation results are compared with experimental data from various diameter pipes. Validation for the suggested models was performed by comparing the Safety and Performance Analysis Code for Nuclear Power Plants calculation results with the droplet experimental data obtained in various diameter horizontal pipes.

An experimental study was conducted on the film boiling of nanofluid droplets at a surface temperature range of 300 to 500℃. The nanofluid was made by mixing pure water with copper oxide powder of diameter of 80 nm. The initial volume of the nanofluid droplet ranged from about 21 to 44 ㎕, and the volume, base diameter, and time were measured during the evaporation process. It was found that nanofluid droplets evaporate faster as the surface temperature increases. Also experimental results showed the droplets evaporate quickly at the beginning of evaporation, but as the volume of the droplets decreases, the evaporation rate gradually slows down, and this trend becomes stronger as the surface temperature increases. In addition, the evaporation rate of nanofluid droplets was slightly faster than that of pure water droplets, this was believed to be because the contact area of nanofluid droplets increased.

Objectives: This study used cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images to categorize the relationships between the mandibular canal and the roots and investigated the prevalence of nerve damage. Materials and Methods: Through CBCT images, contact and three-dimensional positional relationships between the roots of the mandibular third molar and the mandibular canal were investigated. With this data, prevalence of nerve damage according to the presence of contact and three-dimensional positional relationships was studied. Other factors that affected the prevalence of nerve damage were also investigated. Results: When the mandibular third molar and the mandibular canal were shown to have direct contact in CBCT images, the prevalence of nerve damage was higher than in other cases. Also, in cases where the mandibular canal was horizontally lingual to the mandibular third molar and the mandibular canal was vertically at the cervical level of the mandibular third molar, the prevalence of nerve damage was higher than in opposite cases. The percentage of mandibular canal contact with the roots of the mandibular third molar was higher when the mandibular canal was horizontally lingual to the mandibular third molar. Finally, the prevalence of nerve damage was higher when the diameter of the mandibular canal lumen suddenly decreased at the contact area between the mandibular canal and the roots, as shown in CBCT images. Conclusion: The three-dimensional relationship of the mandibular third molar and the mandibular canal can help predict nerve damage and can guide patient expectations of the possibility and extent of nerve damage.

The objective of this work was finding out the most advisable testing conditions for an effective and robust characterization of the tensile strength (TS) of concrete disks. The independent variables were the loading geometry, the angle subtended by the contact area, disk diameter and thickness, maximum aggregate size, and the sample compression strength (CS). The effect of the independent variables was studied in a three groups of experiments using a factorial design with two levels and four factors. The likeliest location where failure beginning was calculated using the equations that account for the stress-strain field developed within the disk. The theoretical outcome shows that for failure beginning at the geometric center of the sample, it is necessary for the contact angle in the loading setup to be larger than or equal to a threshold value. Nevertheless, the measured indirect tensile strength must be adjusted to get a close estimate of the uniaxial TS of the material. The correction depends on the loading geometry, and we got their mathematical expression and cross-validated them with the reported in the literature. The experimental results show that a loading geometry with a curved contact area, uniform load distribution over the contact area, loads projected parallel to one another within the disk, and a contact angle bigger of $12^{\circ}$ is the most advisable and robust setup for implementation of BT on concrete disks. This work provides a description of the BT carries on concrete disks and put forward a characterization technique to study costly samples of cement based material that have been enabled to display new and improved properties with nanomaterials.
