Let $M=H_1{\cup}_SH_2$ be a Heegaard splitting of a 3-manifold M, D be an essential disk in $H_1$ and A be an essential annulus in $H_2$. Suppose D and A intersect in one point. First, we show that a Heegaard splitting admitting such a (D, A) pair satisfies the disjoint curve property, yet there are infinitely many examples of strongly irreducible Heegaard splittings with such (D, A) pairs. In the second half, we obtain another Heegaard splitting $M=H'_1{\cup}_{S'}H'_2$ by removing the neighborhood of A from $H_2$ and attaching it to $H_1$, and show that $M=H'_1{\cup}_{S'}H'_2$ also has a (D, A) pair with $|D{\cap}A|=1$.

In this paper we investigate the distances between Dehn fillings on a hyperbolic 3-manifold that yield 3-manifolds containing a M$\"{o}$bius band and a Klein bottle.

We consider interesting conditions, one of which will be called the disjoint $(A^2,\;D^2)-pair$ property, on genus $g{\geq}2$ Heegaard splittings of compact orient able 3-manifolds. Here a Heegaard splitting $(C_1,\;C_2;\;F)$ admits the disjoint $(A^2,\;D^2)-pair$ property if there are an essential annulus Ai normally embedded in $C_i$ and an essential disk $D_j\;in\;C_j((i,\;j)=(1,\;2)\;or\;(2,\;1))$ such that ${\partial}A_i$ is disjoint from ${\partial}D_j$. It is proved that all genus $g{\geq}2$ Heegaard splittings of toroidal manifolds and Seifert fibered spaces admit the disjoint $(A^2,\;D^2)-pair$ property.

Vacuum carburizing process is well known process for its environment-friendly, low-cost, high-quality characteristics, compared with gas carburizing. In this study, a research was carried out to develop a process of vacuum carburizing for essential components of automotive transmission that is difficult to control its distortion. As a result, vacuum carburizing process is superior to gas carburizing in terms of cost, environment and quality.
