This paper presents hot spot behaviors on the rubbing surface of disk-pad type brake by using coupled thermal-mechanical analysis technique. The height of micro-asperity on the rubbing surface is usually 2∼3 ${\mu}$m in practical disk brakes. Non-uniform micro-contacts between the disk and the rigid friction pads lead to high local temperature distributions, which may cause the material degradation, and develop hot spots, thermal cracks, and brake system failure at the end for a braking period. The friction temperatures on the rubbing surface of disk brakes in which are strongly related to the hot spot and thermal related wears are rapidly concentrated on the micro-contact asperities during braking. The computed FEM results show that the contact stress, friction induced temperature and thermal strain are highly concentrated on the rubbing micro-contact asperities even though the braking speed and force are small during the braking period. This hot spot may directly produce the slippage and various thermal wears on the brake-rubbing surface.

The precision grinding process is carried out with fine-cutting operation after coarse-cutting operation. So, the laminated grinding wheel has been developed to reduce the ineffectiveness induced by changing the operations. In this study, to investigate the possibility of the practical use of the laminated grinding wheel, the surface residual stress of the workpiece ground by the laminated grinding wheels was compared with that ground by the general grinding wheel, and the influence of the difference in grain sizes, between the coarse grit and fine grit of the laminated grinding wheel, on the surface roughness of the workpiece was investigated.

Recently, mussel-inspired surface modification, called polydopamine coating has been extensively implemented to many areas, due to its material versatility and ease to use. In particular, incubation of substrates in an alkaline dopamine solution resulted in self-polymerization of dopamine and modified variety of material surfaces, including noble metals, metal oxides, ceramics, and synthetic polymers. However, the polydopamine coating has a drawback to practical use; it takes more than 12 hrs to introduce sufficient polydopamine layers to solid substrates. Here, we investigated the rate-enhanced polydopamine coating by varying reaction conditions: pH, concentration, and the addition of the oxidizing agent. As a result, the optimum condition for fast polydopamine coating was found, and solid substrates were efficiently coated with polydopamine layers in just few minutes using the condition. The polydopamine-modified surface was characterized by XPS and contact angle goniometry, and the biocompatibility of the modified surface was also proved by cell attachment test.

This paper deals with a new geometrical surface modeling method of forebody's hull form which is fully defined by form parameters. The complex hull form in the forebody can be modeled by the combination of three parts: bare hull, bulbous bow and blending part which connects a bare hull and a bulbous bow. All these subdomain parts are characterized by each own form parameters and constructed with simple surface model. For this, we need only 2-dimensional hull form data and then the form parameters are calculated automatically from these data. Finally, the smooth hull form surfaces are generated by parametric design and fair-skinning. In the practical point of view, we show that this new method can be useful and efficient modeling tool by applying to the hull form surface modeling of Panamax container's forebody.

Surfaces of many engineering structures, specially, those of ships and airplanes are commonly fabricated as doubly curved shapes as well as singly curved surfaces to fulfill functional requirements. Given a three dimensional design surface, the first step in the fabrication process is unfolding or planar development of this surfaces into a planar shape so that the manufacturer can determine the initial shape of the flat plate. Also a good planar development enables the manufacturer to estimate the strain distribution required to form the design shape. In this paper, an algorithm for optimal approximated development of a general curved surface, including both singly and doubly curved surface is developed in the sense that the strain energy from its planar development to the design surface is minimized, subjected to some constraints. The development process is formulated into a constrained nonlinear programming problem, which is on basis of deformation theory and finite element. Constraints are subjected to characteristics of the fabrication method. Some examples on typical surfaces and the practical ship surfaces show the effectiveness of this algorithm.

The article is focused in three areas. In the first part there are analyzed the adhesion forces at the liquid and solid surface interface. There are shown the measured values of surface energy for different types of surfaces. The value of surface energy is decisive for determining the extent of the surface wettability by the liquid. The second part points to the possible negative effects of partly wettable surfaces, showing susceptibility to cavitation. The third section describes the practical aspects of surface wettability by the liquid. Under the new boundary conditions bases, expressing the effect of adhesion forces, there are determined the centrifugal pump characteristics.

Surface erosion using focused ion beam irradiation is the most promising technology for the realization of micro/nanofabrication. However, accurate fabrication of predefined structures is still challenging. This article introduces a single step surface driving method to fabricated predefined curved structures. The previously reported multi step surface driving method (MSDM) has been modified so that a single ion dose profile can be used instead of multiple ion dose profiles. Experimental realization of the method is presented with the fabrication of predefined curved surfaces as well as reference to surface propagation theory. For the purpose of verification, simulations are performed on the basis of a sound mathematical model.

In this paper, we have studied the deformation problem of the scaffold caused by the FDM type 3D printer. The Practical TRIZ technique was used to solve the deformation problem of the scaffold generated from the adhesion surface between the scaffold and the bed. The Practical TRIZ methodology was used to derive the solution and the experiment was conducted on the derived solution. As a result of evaluating the experimental results obtained for the solution, it was found that the deformation of the scaffold was much improved to the satisfactory level.

The influence of surface elasticity and surface residual stress on the elastic field of an isotropic nanoscale elastic layer of finite thickness bonded to a rigid material base is considered by employing the Gurtin-Murdoch continuum theory of elastic material surfaces. The fundamental solutions corresponding to buried vertical and horizontal line loads are obtained by using Fourier integral transform techniques. Selected numerical results are presented for the cases of a finite elastic layer and a semi-infinite elastic medium to portray the influence of surface elasticity and residual surface stress on the bulk stress field. It is found that the bulk stress field depends significantly on both surface elastic constants and residual surface stress. The consideration of out-of-plane terms of the surface stress yields significantly different solutions compared to previous studies. The solutions presented in this study can be used to examine a variety of practical problems involving nanoscale/soft material systems and to develop boundary integral equations methods for such systems.

When an almost flat surface under test is measured by an interferometer, the measurement result is largely influenced by systematic errors that include geometrical errors of a reference flat surface. To determine the systematic errors of the interferometer by the conventional method that is called the three flat method, we must take the reference flat surface out from the interferometer and measure it. Because of difficulties to set the reference flat surface to the interferometer exactly and quickly, this method is not practical. On the other hand, the method that measures a surface under test with some shifts in the direction being perpendicular to the optical axis of the interferometer is studied. However, the parasitic pitching, rolling and up-down movement caused by the above shifts brings serious error to the measurement result, and the algorithm by which the influences can be eliminated is not still established. In this paper, we propose the self-calibration algorithm for determining the systematic errors that include geometrical errors of a reference flat surface by several rotation shifts and a linear shift of general surface under test, and verify by a numerical experiment that this algorithm is useful for determining the systematic errors.
