The extruder screw is a part for extruding material in a injection molding machine. The screw's geometrical shape can mathematically be described by a sweep surface which is constructed by sweeping a section curve composed of a few circular arcs, along a helical guide curve. In the paper we developed a dedicated CAD system which basically is parametric in a sense that the system initially takes several design parameters to construct the geometric elements including the final sweep surface of the screw as well as section & guiding curves, along with feasibility check of the input parameter values, without further user interaction. The system has been developed as a built-in module onto a commercial CAD system, which can further incorporate additional NC-out functions with ease.

Radial immersion ratio is an important factor to determine the threshold in face milling and should be estimated in process for automatic force regulation. In this paper, presented is a method of on-line estimation of radial immersion ratio using cutting force. When a tooth finishes sweeping, sudden drop of cutting forces occurs. These force drops are equal to the cutting forces that act on a single tooth at the swept angle of cut and can be acquired from cutting force signals in feed and cross-feed directions. The ratio of cutting forces in feed and cross-feed directions acting on the single tooth at the swept angle of cut is a function of the swept angle of cut and the ratio of radial to tangential cutting force. In the research, it is found that the ratio of radial to tangential cutting force is not affected by cutting conditions and axial rake angle. Therefore, the ratio of radial to tangential cutting force determined by just one preliminary experiment can be used regardless of the cutting conditions. Using the measured cutting forces and predetermined ratio, the redial immersion ratio is estimated. various experiments show that the radial immersion ratio can be estimated by the proposed method very well.

Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) is an important task of civil engineering structure monitoring and inspection, but minor damage such as small cracks in local structure is difficult to observe. If cracks continued expansion may cause partial or even overall damage to the structure. Therefore, monitoring and detecting the structure in the early stage of crack propagation is important. The crack detection technology based on machine vision has been widely studied, but there are still some problems such as bad recognition effect for small cracks. In this paper, we proposed a deep learning method based on sweep signals to evaluate concrete surface crack with a width less than 1 mm. Two convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are used to analyze the one-dimensional (1D) frequency sweep signal and the two-dimensional (2D) time-frequency image, respectively, and the probability value of average damage (ADPV) is proposed to evaluate the minor damage of structural. Finally, we use the standard deviation of energy ratio change (ERVSD) and infrared thermography (IRT) to compare with ADPV to verify the effectiveness of the method proposed in this paper. The experiment results show that the method proposed in this paper can effectively predict whether the concrete surface is damaged and the severity of damage.

Forensic engineering is the area of expertise of people qualified to serve as engineering experts in courts of law or during arbitration proceedings. An aerial-lifter can lift and carry load, including people, using power. Recently, failure of aerial-lifter internal parts while working and sweeping causing injuries and damage to property almost always generates conflict between the automaker and customer. Hence, the investigation of such events generally involves an engineering analysis. One of the possible reasons for accidents, such as a vehicle catching fire is the failure of oil pressure machine and the supporting pin. The results of formal inspections and engineering tests can reveal the cause for the failure of the mechanical parts. Therefore, the failure mechanism is analyzed by adopting fractography methods and by applying an instrumented indentation technique to compare the material properties of the reference part with those of the malfunctioning part.

Incidence of rice stripe disease, caused by Rice stripe tenuivirus (RSV), was surveyed during 2002 to 2004. The incidence area and ratio of diseased fields were decreased gradually during those period. Rate of diseased plants were 45.8%, 45.0% and 43.7% in the susceptible cultivars Chucheong, Saechucheong and Ilpum, respectively. However, the rate was 4.4% in resistant cultivar Hwaseong. In addition, breakdown rate was also significantly high in the susceptible cultivars in Chucheong, Saechucheong and Ilpum showing 33.6, 33.2 and 31.9%, respectively. In Hwaseong, the breakdown rate was 0.8%. Collection efficiency was compared between two insect vector collection methods. Insect-sucking machine method was much more efficient than sweeping net method in collecting small brown plant hopper (SBPH). According to the survey of the population density of the insect vector during 2002 to 2004, the national average population density was gradually decreased year by year, 3.6, 2.3, and 1.3%, respectively. This result was significantly related with the decrease of the incidence of rice stripe disease. Control efficiency of rice stripe disease by treating several seedling box and water surface with insecticides against SBPH resulted that imidacloprid GR, Fipronil FG, Clothianidin+Probenazole GR and Thiamethoxam GR showed over 80% of control efficiency at 28 days after treatment at the early stage in nursery.
