Oscillating Cup Viscosity Measurements of Aluminum Alloys: A201, A319 and A356

An oscillating cup viscometer was developed to measure the absolute viscosities of molten metals. Previous experiments established the capability of the apparatus to characterize the viscosities of molten nickel-based superalloys. However, modifications to the instrument and its theoretical analysis were required for reliable measurements on molten aluminum alloys, presumably due to their lower densities and lower viscosities. The theoretical literature for the fluid flow inside an oscillating cup is reviewed, and a working equation without any correction factor is developed for the improved viscometer. Some design parameters of the viscometer that directly affect the accuracy of viscosity estimation by using the working equation are discussed. A special vertical furnace was adopted to uniformly heat a longer cylindrical sample (10 mm inner diameter and 120 mm length) with a temperature difference of less than 2°C over the sample length. The measuring procedure was also improved to get more accurate motion parameters. It is estimated that the working equation and improved instrument provide an uncertainty of less than 4%. In addition, applications and experimental data are presented for pure aluminum and three aluminum alloys: A201, A319, and A356.

Bench-scale tests to determine mechanisms of charge generation due to particle-particle and particle-wall contact in binary systems of fine and coarse particles

Bench-scale methods were utilized to determine changes in electrostatic charges and their mechanisms for various coarse and fine particles as they came into contact with each other and/or their containing vessel walls. Techniques included shaking tests and particle-copper plate contacting experiments. Electrostatic behaviour of coarse particles (glass beads and polyethylene) and fine particles (Larostat 519, glass beads and silver-coated glass beads) were investigated. Shaking tests resulted in charge separation in which the fine particles acquired significant positive charges, opposite to those carried by the large particles. In copper-plate contacting tests, charge transfer occurred between the fines and the copper plate with fines carrying away almost all of the initial charges on the plate followed by further charge separation. Charge separation was found to be the dominant charging mechanism between the coarse particle and copper plate, with the particles becoming negatively charged.     

多相主动轮廓模型的眼底图像杯盘分割

目的 视盘及视杯的检测对于分析眼底图像和视网膜视神经疾病计算机辅助诊断来说十分重要,利用医学眼底图像中视盘和视杯呈现椭圆形状这一特征,提出了椭圆约束下的多相主动轮廓模型,实现视盘视杯的同时精确分割。方法 该算法根据视盘视杯在灰度图像中具有不同的区域亮度,建立多相主动轮廓模型,然后将椭圆形约束内嵌于该模型中。通过对该模型的能量泛函进行求解,得到椭圆参数的演化方程。分割时首先设定两条椭圆形初始曲线,根据演化方程,驱动曲线分别向视盘和视杯方向进行移动。当轮廓线到达视盘、视杯边缘时,曲线停止演化。结果 在不同医学眼底图像中对算法进行验证,对算法抗噪性、不同初始曲线选取等进行了实验,并与多种算法进行了对比。实验结果表明,本文模型能够同时分割出视盘及视杯,与其他模型的分割结果相比,本文算法的分割结果更加准确。结论 本文算法可以精确分割医学眼底图像中的视盘和视杯,该算法不需要预处理,具有较强的鲁棒性和抗噪性。

Characterising and exploiting workloads of highly interactive video-on-demand

This paper presents a detailed characterisation of user behaviour for a series of interactive video experiments over a 12 month period, in which we served popular sporting and musical content. In addition to generic VCR-like features, our custom-built video-on-demand application provides advanced interactivity features such as bookmarking. The dramatic impact of such functionality on how users consume content is studied and analysed. We discuss in detail how this user behaviour can be exploited by content distributors to improve user experience. Specifically, we study how simple dynamic bookmark placement and interactivity-aware content pre-fetching and replication can reduce the impact of highly interactive media on CDN performance.
