Measuring the errors of form of industrial surfaces: prediction and optimization

To acquire maximum information on the geometrical errors of industrially made surfaces at a minimum cost, a method for estimating conditional probabilities of a random signal (Bayesian prediction) is applied to three-dimensional metrology. First, a surface is interpolated between data acquired on a coordinate measuring machine (CMM). Then, for a given probability, limit surfaces are computed that bind a region of space containing the known data and the most probable interpolation of the missing data of the surface. These bounds can be treated as the surface; their points can be considered as if they were actual CMM data when fitting a tolerance zone or a datum feature to the data. For Bayesian prediction, the basic hypotheses on the signal are stationarity, ergodicity, and gaussian density. Deviations from these hypotheses and their consequences on the prediction are taken into account and corrections are proposed.

Optimizing Naphtha Utilization Based on Molecular Scale Management

The technology of separating normal paraffins from naphtha through adsorption using 5A molecular sieves was studied. The separation efficiency of the normal paraffins was above 99.99%. Using the desorption oil as the feedstock of steam cracking, the ethylene yield increased from 29.7-35.0% to 41.4-49.2% compared to that of the naphtha. The research octane number of the raffinate oil reached more than 85 units with an increase of 20 units compared to that of naphtha.     

Colour extension properties of individual pigments and effects on shades of foundations in cake form

The mechanism of colour change during the pigment dispersion process and during powder application to the skin surface was studied by examining the colour extension properties of Yellow. Red , and Black iron oxides in white powder bases. A new measure for the evaluation of the degree of colour extension was devised. This measure corresponded well with human visual sensation, and was found to be useful for comparing the rates of colour extension of pigments. The rate of colour extension of pigments was found to vary in the order: Yellow acicular Red granular Red Black. This result explains colour darkening and the change towards reddish tones during the pigment dispersion process, because Yellow extends fully in the early stage of the process but Red , especially in granular form, and Black continue to extend even in the later stage. Acicular Red iron oxide is more favourably employed than the granular form to attain sufficient colour extension of foundations with lower energy expenditure, and to decrease the discrepancy between the cake colour and the colour of applied powder.

Development and implementation of a NURBS curve motion interpolator

This paper deals with the issues of development and implementation of a real-time NURBS interpolator for a six-axis robot. Using an open-architecture controller system as a testbed, a real-time NURBS curve interpolator was developed, implemented and tested. Sample runs were conducted with the resulting trajectories measured in real-time during robot motion. The resulting trajectories are analyzed, discussed and compared with those from a commonly used point-to-point approximation technique. The real-time NURBS curve interpolator's feasibility, advantages and related issues are also discussed.     

分偏移距动校正方法的改进

在地震资料处理中，速度分析和动校正对资料品质的影响很大。由于动校正速度是随偏移距变化而变化的，而常规速度分析并没有考虑这一因素，动校正效果往往不是很理想，从而影响资料的叠加和成像效果。分偏移距动校方法是在不同偏移距上采用不同的速度进行动校正。但由于是在不同偏移距组上分别独立进行速度分析和动校正，因此不能将不同偏移距组的同一反射同相轴校正到同一to层位上。这样就需要进行繁琐的后续处理，而且还会降低同相轴的连续性和平滑性。为此，对该方法进行了一些改进，即固定to在不同的分偏移距段进行速度扫描，段与段之间的衔接问题采用平滑处理解决。理论模型分析表明，采取上述改进措施后，动校正效果得到了一定提高，改善了同相轴的连续性和平滑性。

An Efficient Code-Based Voxel-Traversing Algorithm

The paper considers an efficient approach to traversing a uniformly-subdivided space pierced by a line segment. A voxel, as the basic constituent element of the uniformly subdivided space, is restricted to having the form of a cube. The algorithm works in two steps. In the first step, the so-called Bresenham voxels are identified and, by comparing their position codes, their type of connectivity is determined. To achieve the required connectivity between neighbouring voxels, the second step of the algorithm is applied to find the missing voxels. In this way, the algorithm efficiently switches between face-, edge- and vertex-connectivity. Although the algorithm works with oating-point precision, it is extremely computationally efficient, and tests of speed compared with the Müller, Cleary & Wyvill, Amanatides & Woo, and Zemčik algorithms are described.     

Drag on two co-axial rigid spheres moving normal to a plane: Newtonian and Carreau fluids

The boundary effect and the presence of a nearby entity on the drag of a rigid entity is investigated by considering the movement of two identical, rigid, coaxial spheres normal to a plane in both a Newtonian and a Carreau fluid at a low to medium large Reynolds number. The parameters key to the phenomenon under consideration, including the nature of the fluid, the separation distance between two spheres, the distance between the near sphere and the plane, and the Reynolds number, on the drag coefficient are discussed. We show that the influence of a boundary on the drag coefficient is more important than that of the nature of a fluid and that of the separation distance between two spheres. The variation of the drag coefficient as a function of Reynolds number for a Carreau fluid is similar to that for a Newtonian fluid. Due to the shear-thinning nature of the former the drag coefficient in the former is smaller than that in the latter. The influence of the index parameter of a Carreau fluid becomes appreciable only if the Carreau number is sufficiently large. Correlations between the drag coefficient and the key parameters of a system are developed for the case when the Reynolds number is smaller than l.
