This study deals with roughing planning by cross sectional information generated from sculptured surfaces. Bicubic Bezier surface is adopted as sculptured surfaces in this paper. The system consists of 3 pstyd : 1) modeling sculptured surface, 2) reconstruction of cross-section in 2D coordinates, 3) determination of roughing tool path with structural data. The system is developed by using BIM-PC in the environment of Auto CAD R11, AutoLISP and MetaWare C. The proposed system shows an efficient algorithm for roughing planning with cross sectional information.

The welding technology and qualities are developed significantly, in recent years, in the use of automated processing technology and welding robot systems. But these automated welding technologies have many difficulties for finding the optimal welding parameter conditions. Because of the lack of mathematical model for determination of optimal welding process parameters. In this study, the sensitivity analysis of the empirical equations for finding weld bead width, height and penetration depth by using the published formulae. The selected major welding process parameters effected to weld bead geometries are the welding speed, current, voltage and weld wire diameter.

A model system allowing the experimental determination of the spin-motive force from the vortex gyration motion in a circular nanodisk is presented. It can be one way to get experimental detection of the spin-motive force and it will provide an important tool to study the relationship between the charge and spin transports in ferromagnetic system.

The investigation deals with of a intermediate process condition hving a bolt-shaped final product where it is required to extend tool-life in forging. In this study, optimization of the design variables is conducted by a genetic algorithm, where the fitness values are evaluated on the basis of FEM analysis model. The approach is applied to the determination of the intermediate process conditions which are optimal with regard to minimization of peak die pressure.

The sensitivity factors and the error propagation factors are defined for the three-parameter ellipsometry (TPE). The sensitivity factor is useful for understanding the nature of the TPE measurements in connection with determination of the optical properties and the thickness of a film. On the other hand, the error propagation factors provide a quantitative tool for predicting the optimum condition for TPE experiments. Their usefulness is demonstrated for the passive film formed on nickel in aqueous solution.

Sexual dimorphism in birds refers to male-female differences in body size, plumage, color and/or behavior. In general, many seabirds, including the family of Laridae, are monomorphic in plumage-color, which makes the determination of sex difficult in the field because both parents also tend to share a great portion of parental care. The development of an inexpensive sexing tool facilitates understanding the degree of sex-specific parental care in the evolution of the life history. Here, we developed a non-invasive method for the determination of sex using the bill-head morphometric of known captive pairs and applied this tool to wild pairs to document factors underlying male-female parental care during the incubation period of Saunders's gulls (Saundersilarus saundersi). Males exhibited relatively larger bill-head ratios than their mates within naturally formed pairs in captivity, resulting in the determination of sex in12 wild pairs at the nest during the incubation period. Males and females equally shared the incubation role during the daytime, attending the nest at a high rate of 95%. However, the male's proportion of nest attentiveness greatly increased with time towards sunset, presumably reflecting the male duty for nighttime incubation. The present study provides a non-invasive method for the determination of sex in a monomorphic seagull species and highlights how male-female incubation behavior is associated with time of the day, rather than other ecological conditions.

For the machining of the sculptured surfaces on 5-axis CNC milling machine, the milling cutter direction vector was determined in the study (I) with 5-axis post-processing. Thus, it was possible to cut the sculptured surfaces on five-axis CNC milling machine with the end mill cutter. Then, for smooth machined surfaces in five-axis machining of free-from surfaces, this study develops an algorithm for prediction of cusp heights. Also, it generates tool path such that the cusp heights are constrained to a constant value or under a certain value. For prediction of the cusp height between two basis points, a common plane, containing the line crossing two basis points and the summation vector of two normal vectors at two basis points, is defined. The cusp height is the maximum value of scallops on the common plane after end mill cutter passes through the common plane. Sculptured surfaces were machined with CINCINNATI MILACRON 5-axis machining center, model 20V-80, using end mill cutter. Cusp heights were verified by 3-dimensional measuring machine with laser scanner, WEGU Messtechnik GmbH.

Of all the rapid tooling (RT) methods currently available, thick-layer laminated tooling is the most suitable for large-scale, low-cost dies and molds. Currently, the determination of a lamina's contour or profile and the associated slicing algorithms are based on existing rapid prototyping (RP) data manipulation technology. This paper presents a new adaptive slicing algorithm developed exclusively for profiled edge laminae (PEL) tooling PEL tooling is a thick-layer RT technique that involves the assembly of an array of laminae, whose top edges are simultaneously profiled and beveled using a line-of-sight cutting method based on a CAD model of the intended tool surface. The cutting profiles are based on the intersection curve obtained directly from the CAD model to ensure geometrical accuracy. The slicing algorithm determines the lamina thicknesses that minimize the dimensional error using a new tool shape error index. At the same time, the algorithm considers the available lamination thicknesses and desired lamina interface locations. We demonstrate the new slicing algorithm by developing a simple industrial PEL tool based on a CAD part shape.

Recently, as the industrial demand for small quantity batch production of sheet metal components, the application of dieless forming technology to production of these component rise with the advantages of the reduction in manufacturing cost and time. In dieless forming processes, the determination of moving path of tool plays an important role in producing successfully formed parts. In order to obtain the optimized moving path of tool avoiding forming failure, it is necessary to examine the forming limit of sheet material. Therefore, in this study, as the new criterion to evaluate the formability of sheet material in dieless forming processes FDD(feeding depth diagram) with respect to feeding depth and punch diameter is proposed. Thus, the FDD for the sheet materials of STS304 and Ti-grade2 were obtained from a series of FDT(feeding depth test). In addition the possibility of the application of FLD in judging forming severity in dieless forming processes was investigated by comparing the results of FE analyses based on FLD and experimental FDT.

In machining operations, a burr is an undesirable material formed by plastic deformation in a workpiece. With the ongoing industrial developments, it has become an important issue to efficiently remove burrs. Several deburring methods have been developed to remove specific burrs that require special machining. However, to remove burrs formed while machining at the CNC machining center, deburring tools must be developed. In a previous study, a new deburring tool was developed by the authors. In this study, the influence of the rake angle and stiffness of the new deburring tool was analyzed to improve performance. The theoretical model was driven considering the rake angle and stiffness, and experiments were carried out to validate the model. Especially, conditions based on the designed rake angle and stiffness to effectively remove burrs, which is difficult, at the exit surface were suggested.
