Finish machining of a curved surface is often carried out by an NC system with curve interpolation in the field. This NURBS interpolation adopts a feedrate optimizing strategy based on both the geometrical information and dynamic properties. In case of a finish cut using a ball-end mill, the curve interpolator needs to take the machining process into account for more improved surface, while reducing the polishing time. In this study, the effect of low machinability at the bottom of a tool on surface roughness is also considered. A particular curve interpolation algorithm is proposed fur generating feedrate commands which are able to control the roughness of a curved surface. The simulation of the machined surface by the proposed algorithm was carried out, and experimental results are presented.

The loss of strength in a structure as a result of cyclic loads over a period of life time is an important phenomenon for the life-cycle analysis. Service loads are accentuated at the areas of stress concentration, mainly at the connection of components. Structural components unavoidably are affected by defects such as surface scratches, surface roughness and weld defects of random sizes, which usually occur during the manufacturing and handling process. These defects are shown to have an important effect on the fatigue life of the structural components by promoting crack initiation sites. The value of equivalent initial flaw size (EIFS) is calculated by using the back extrapolation technique and the Paris law of fatigue crack growth from results of fatigue tests. We try to analyze the effect of EIFS distribution in a multiple site damage (MSD) specimen by using the extended finite element method (XFEM). For the analysis, fatigue tests were conducted on the centrally-cracked specimens and MSD specimens.

Among a variety of cleaning processes, the cryogenic carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) cleaning has merits because it is highly efficient in removing very fine particles, innoxious to humans and does not produce residuals after the cleaning, which enables us to extend its area of coverage in the semi-conductor fabrication society. However, the cryogenic carbon dioxide cleaning method has some technical research issues in aspect to particles' adhesion and removal. To resolve these issues, performing an analysis for the identification of particle adhesion mechanism is needed. In this study, a research was performed by a theoretical approach. To this end, we extended the G-T (Greenwood-Tripp) model by applying the JKR (Johnson-Kendall-Roberts) and Lennard-Jones potential theories and the statistical characteristics of rough surface to investigate and identify the contact, adhesion and deformation mechanisms of soft or hard particles on the rough substrate. The statistical characteristics of the rough surface were taken into account through the employment of the normal probability distribution function of the asperity peaks on the substrate surface. The effects of surface roughness on the pull-off force for these particles were examined and discussed.
