In this study, a finite element analysis for high-speed blanking of mild steel is performed. A thermomechanically coupled simulation model of a blanking process was developed using ABAQUS/Explicit. Through a simulation of the high-speed blanking process of mild steel, the influence of the punch speed, tool edge radius, and work material thickness on the development of the plastic heat and punch load were studied. The results of the study revealed that a higher punch speed caused thermal softening of the work material and decreased the punch load. Decreasing tool edge radius could help reduce the punch load. In addition, the results of the study revealed that the thermal softening effect was more dominant in the blanking of a mild steel sheet with a greater thickness as compared to that in the blanking of a mild steel sheet with a lower thickness.

In this paper, a finite element method for predicting the temperature and stress distributions in micro-machining is presented. The work material is oxygen-free-high-conductivity copper(OFHC copper) and its flow stress is taken as a function of strain, strain rate and temperature in order to reflect realistic behavior in machining process. From the simulation, a lot of information on the micro-machining process can be obtained; cutting force, cutting temperature, chip shape, distributions of temperature and stress, etc. The calculated cutting force was found to agree with the experiment result with the consideration of friction characteristics on chip-tool contact region. Because of considering the tool edge radius, this cutting model using the finite element method can analyze the micro-machining with the very small depth of cut, almost the same size of tool edge radius, and can observe the 'size effect' characteristic. Also the effects of temperature and friction on micro-machining were investigated.

This paper is aimed to find out the impact of the geometrical parameters, mainly the radius and the height of a cylinder, on the SGEMP response including the famous scaling law in the classical cylinder model using a homemade PIC code UNIPIC-3D. We computed the electric fields at the center and at the edge on the emission head face with different radii and heights under normal X-rays incidence. The results show that the electric field will increase with the radius but decrease with the height. We analyze the scaling law that links the electric field product and fluence product, and whereafter an irreconcilable contradiction raises when the radius is changeable, which limits the application range of the scaling law. Moreover, the field-height-radius relation is found and described by a combination of logarithmic and minus one-quarter numerical fitting law firstly. Particle and magnetic field distributions are used to explain all the behaviors of the fields reasonably. All the findings will assist the evaluation of SGEMP response in spacecraft protection.

To restrain contact failure, present study investigates the influence of edge machining of an indenter (punch). As for the edge machining, rounding, chamfering, and chamfering and rounding are considered. Contact mechanics is consulted to examine the traction profile and the size of the contact region which are directly influenced by the end profile of the indenter. The effect of rounding size (i.e., radius) in the case of the chamfering and rounding edge-indenter is studied. Shear traction is also evaluated within the regime of partial slip. Size of slip region and its expansion rate due to the increase of shear force are considered to investigate the shape effect of the indenter on contact failure.

Recently there have been an increasing amount of bicycle accidents along with the increased usage of bicycles. Bicycle accidents occur frequently by perpendicular collision at the inner intersection. Bicycle traffic is especially concentrated in residential areas and around schools which results in the vulnerability of cyclists. This paper is to inform the potential risks of collisions between bicycles and cars turning right at the intersections using simulation analysis which focuses on the pavement edge of intersection geometric designs factor and checks on the drivers behavior. The result of the analysis shows that as the curve radius of pavement edge at the intersection becomes larger and the more attention drivers are paying to the rear by turning their heads to the right, the potential risk of collisions between bicycles and cars turning right will decrease.

This paper deals with the precision cutting characteristics of mono-crystal diamonds poly-crystal diamonds and tungsten carbide tool on ductile material. The cutting tests were carried out under various uncut chip areas and 20${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ depth of engagement. The machinability in precision machining was discussed from the viewpoints of the normal cutting forces and the surface roughness of the workpiece. As the feed rate decreases the normal force difference for cutting edge radii appears to large. In various cutting edge radii the surface roughness difference when cut the copper which is ductile material than the aluminium alloy is large. As the same cutting condition the hardness value on cut surface with the diamond tool appears to be smaller than that of the tungsten carbide tool.

The design of low-solidity vaned diffusers and the effect on the performance of a turbocharger compressor is discussed. The effect of vane number and turning angle was investigated while maintaining a basic design with a leading edge angle of $70^{\circ}$, leading and trailing edge radius ratios of 1.1 and 1.3. All results are compared with those obtained with the standard vaneless diffuser configuration and it was shown that all designs increased and shifted the pressure ratio to reduced flowrates. Despite the low-solidity configuration none of the vane designs provided a broad operating range, and the vane leading edge angle was not main factor that system went into the surge condition. The diffuser of higher trailing edge angle improved the flow range for the compressor to operate at lower flow region.

The leading edge of a low-drag super-cavitating foil has been made to be thick enough by using a point drag which is supposed to be a linear model of the Kirchhoff lamina. In the present paper, the relation between the point drag and the Kirchhoff lamina is made clear by analyzing the cavity drag of both models and the leading edge radius of the point drag model and the lamina thickness of Kirchhoff\`s profile K. The matched asymptotic expansion is effectively made use of in designing a practical super-cavitating fool which is not only of low drag but also structurally sound. Also it has a distinct leading edge cavity separation point. The cavity foil shapes of trans-cavitating propeller blade sections designed by present method are shown.

In this paper, the radius weight mean (RWM) and the feature-embedding technique are used to present a novel watermarking scheme for color images. Simulations validate that the stego-images generated by the proposed scheme are robust against most common image-processing operations, such as compression, color quantization, bit truncation, noise addition, cropping, blurring, mosaicking, zigzagging, inversion, (edge) sharpening, and so on. The proposed method possesses outstanding performance in resisting high compression ratio attacks: JPEG2000 and JPEG. Further, to provide extra hiding storage, a steganographic method using the RWM with the least significant bit substitution technique is suggested. Experiment results indicate that the resulting perceived quality is desirable, whereas the peak signal-to-noise ratio is high. The payload generated using the proposed method is also superior to that generated by existing approaches.

Magnesium alloy has low formability at room temperature and therefore, in many cases, forming at elevated temperatures is necessary to obtain the required material flow without failure. Tn the present study, square cup deep drawing tests using the magnesium alloy AE31 sheet were experimentally conducted using the porches and dies with different edge radius to evaluate the formability sensitivity to the die design variables. The experimental results showed that the fracture position over the cup wall moved from the punch nose to the flange as the die temperature increased, and that the drawing depth change was more affected by the punch radius than the die radius.
