Analytical investigations concerning the wear behaviour of cutting tools used for the machining of compacted graphite iron and grey cast iron

Compacted graphite iron (CGI) is the material for the upcoming new generation of high-power diesel engines. Due to its increased strength compared to grey cast iron (CI) it allows an increase in the cylinder-pressures and therefore a better fuel economy and a higher power output are possible. First examples of such engines are the 3.3 L Audi V8 TDI and the 4.0 L BMW V8. The reason why CGI is not used to a larger extent in large scale production up to now is its much more difficult machinability as compared to conventional CI, especially at high cutting speeds. In modern transfer lines high cutting speeds are used in the cylinder-boring operation. And especially in these continuous cutting operations the tool life decreased due to the change from CI to CGI by about a factor of 20. As was found out previously by us, the difference in tool lifetime can be explained by the formation of a MnS-layer on the tool surface in the case of CI. This layer cannot form when machining CGI because the formation of MnS-inclusions is not possible in this material due to the higher magnesium content which in turn is responsible for the formation of the graphite vermicles. The MnS-layer acts as a lubricant and prevents the adhesion of workpiece particles. This is the reason for the greatly reduced wear of CI in high speed machining operations. This MnS-layer is inspected closer by X-ray diffraction, X-ray induced photoelectron spectrometry, atomic force microscopy and secondary ion mass spectrometry in this work. Furthermore, available information on the performance of MnS as lubricant in PM-steels is comparatively discussed. This knowledge led to an economic solution of high productivity machining of CGI. The key was to reduce the cutting speed, replacing single insert tools with multiple insert tools. This allowed to increase the feed rate. By increasing the feed rate in the same amount as decreasing the cutting speed, the same productivity can be realized. This concept is leading to a number of multiple insert tools thus realizing a high productivity machining of CGI cylinder-bores with multi-layer-coated carbide tools.

Durability testing modified compression ignition engines fueled with straight plant oil

Many short-run studies point to the potential for direct fueling of compression ignition engines with plant oil fuels. There is a much smaller body of work that examines the potential for these fuels in long-run tests that illuminate engine endurance and longevity issues. Generally, longevity studies involving direct fueling of engines with straight plant oils have shown significant impact to the life of the engine, though test results vary widely depending on the oil, engine type, test conditions, and measurement approach. This study utilizes a previously designed modification kit [1] to investigate the longevity implications of directly fueling straight plant oil in an indirect injection (IDI) listeroid type, slow speed stationary engine common in agro-processing applications in developing countries. Specifically this study focuses on the lubrication oil by developing a model to characterize the engine wear and estimate lube oil change frequency. The model is extended to an analysis of the piston rings. Cylinder liner wear, emissions, engine performance, and a visual investigation of several critical engine components are also studied.     

Folded Architecture for Digital Gammatone Filter Used in Speech Processor of Cochlear Implant

Emerging trends in the area of digital very large scale integration (VLSI) signal processing can lead to a reduction in the cost of the cochlear implant. Digital signal processing algorithms are repetitively used in speech processors for filtering and encoding operations. The critical paths in these algorithms limit the performance of the speech processors. These algorithms must be transformed to accommodate processors designed to be high speed and have less area and low power. This can be realized by basing the design of the auditory filter banks for the processors on digital VLSI signal processing concepts. By applying a folding algorithm to the second‐order digital gammatone filter (GTF), the number of multipliers is reduced from five to one and the number of adders is reduced from three to one, without changing the characteristics of the filter. Folded second‐order filter sections are cascaded with three similar structures to realize the eighth‐order digital GTF whose response is a close match to the human cochlea response. The silicon area is reduced from twenty to four multipliers and from twelve to four adders by using the folding architecture.     

Dual Mode of Mitochondrial ROS Action during Reprogramming to Pluripotency

Essential changes in cell metabolism and redox signaling occur during the reprogramming of somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). In this paper, using genetic and pharmacological approaches, we have investigated the role of electron transport chain (ETC) complex-I (CI) of mitochondria in the process of cell reprogramming to pluripotency. Knockdown of NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase core subunits S1 (Ndufs1) or subunit B10 (Ndufb10) of the CI or inhibition of this complex with rotenone during mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) reprogramming resulted in a significantly decreased number of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). We have found that mitochondria and ROS levels due course of the reprogramming tightly correlate with each other, both reaching peak by day 3 and significantly declining by day 10 of the process. The transient augmentation of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) could be attenuated by antioxidant treatment, which ameliorated overall reprogramming. However, ROS scavenging after day 3 or during the entire course of reprogramming was suppressive for iPSC formation. The ROS scavenging within the CI-deficient iPSC-precursors did not improve, but further suppressed the reprogramming. Our data therefore point to distinct modes of mitochondrial ROS action during the early versus mid and late stages of reprogramming. The data further substantiate the paradigm that balanced levels of oxidative phosphorylation have to be maintained on the route to pluripotency.

Effects of charge temperature and exhaust gas re-circulation on combustion and emission characteristics of an acetylene fuelled HCCI engine

In this work, experiments were conducted on a homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine with acetylene as the sole fuel at different power outputs. Initially, the intake air was heated to different temperatures in order to determine the optimum level at every output. Charge temperatures needed were in the range of 40-110 °C from no load to a BMEP (Brake Mean Effective Pressure) of 4 bar. Subsequently, exhaust gas re-circulation (EGR) was done at the identified charge temperatures and brake thermal efficiency was found to improve. At high BMEPs, use of EGR led to knocking. Thus, fine control over charge temperature and EGR quantity is needed at these conditions. Nitric oxide and smoke levels were very low. However, HC levels were high at about 1700-2700 ppm. Brake thermal efficiencies were comparable to or even better than the compression ignition mode of operation.
