Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is a powder-bed type Additive Manufacturing (AM) process, where parts are built layer-by-layer by laser melting of powder layers of metal. There are several SLM process parameters that affect the accuracy and quality of the metal parts produced by SLM. Therefore, it is essential to understand the effect of these parameters on the quality and properties of the parts built by this process. In this paper, using Taguchi design of experiments, the effect of four SLM process parameters namely laser power, defocus distance, layer thickness and build orientation are considered on the porosity of 17-4PH stainless steel parts built on ProX200 SLM direct metal printer. The porositywas found to be optimum at a defocus distance of -4mm and a laser power of 240 W with a layer thickness of 30 μm and using vertical build orientation.

To study the axial bearing capacity of elliptical concrete filled steel tubular (ECFST) stub columns, the calculation theory and accuracy of existing formulas are analysed. The comparison of the calculation results of existing formulas and test results shows that the calculation precision is within the scope of engineering tolerance. Therefore, the existing formulas are proposed for practical project.

The metal-containing (Cu, Co, Ag, Cr) polyacrylonitrile (PAN) thin films were fabricated using IR-pyrolysis under low vacuum conditions in different temperature and time modes. The thickness of the fabricated films was between 0.01÷0.68 μm. The metal-containing PAN films had the resistance values in the range from 2.9·10² to 5.1·10¹¹ Ohm. It has been investigated that the film thickness, resistance and gas sensitivity of the samples depends on the composition of the initial solution and on the process parameters of the film material's fabrication. It has been studied that the samples demonstrate gas-sensing properties to CO, NO₂, Cl₂ and gasoline vapours at room temperature.

In this study, novel nano- or submicron-scale tourmaline bacteriostatic ceramics in which nano or submicron tourmaline is one of the central materials, together with nano-zinc oxide, are prepared using ion exchange and solid-phase synthesis techniques. The material is then examined with IR, XRD and XPS and is tested for the ability to inhibit the activity of the sulfate-reducing bacterium (SRB). The calcination temperature of the ceramic is 600 °C, and the main components are present at 11.17% for Si2p, 3.12% for Mo3d, 3.47% for Zn2p3, 2.86% for Mn2p and 2.35% for Cu2p. Additionally, the density of this material is 1.4-3.5 g/cm³, and its compressive strength exceeds 5.2 MPa, meeting the requirements of ceramic standards. Consequently, the bacteriostatic ceramic inhibits the activity of the sulfate-reducing bacterium effectively without inhibiting the removal of COD and NO₃^-. These results indicate that the sulfate-reducing bacterium maintains its functional metabolism, apart from its sulfate reduction potential, when using this bacteriostatic ceramic, thus achieving the goal of inhibiting the action of the sulfate-reducing bacterium.

High-strength bolts have been widely used in power plants. However, the high-strength bolts which being employed in pumping station, steel structure and pipeline anti-whip structure have been found delayed fracture for many times in a power plant, this will affect the reliability of steel fracture and bring blow risk caused by falling objects. The high-strength bolt with delayed fracture was carried out fracture analysis, metallurgical analysis, chemical analysis, mechanical analysis, as well as bolts installation analysis, it can be comprehensively confirmed that the direct cause of high-strength bolts delayed fracture is the stress corrosion, and the root cause of high-strength bolts delayed fracture should be the improper installation at the initial and the imperfect routine anti-corrosion maintenance.

A wire rope continuously variable transmissions (WR-CVT) has been introduced in the paper, in view of its less research, this paper mainly studied the deformation distribution of 6×7+IWS bending wire rope. The results shown that in the same section, half of the side strands are in a stretched state and half are in a compressed state. When the transmission ratio i=2.35, the maximum deformation and the minimum deformation are decrease when section U1 to U2, U3 transition. Wire deformation distribution when the transmission ratio i=0.42 is similar to that of i=0.2.35. Wire deformation amount and the deformation difference decrease as the transmission ratio decreases, this shows that the increase in the bending radius of the wire will make the wire deformation more uniform, and the reduction of the deformation difference will also reduce the wear. This study provides a basis for the study of fatigue and wears failure of WR-CVT components.

In this paper three types of thin sheets of highly energetic materials were prepared and characterized. The first based on 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocane (HMX). The second type based on 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazinane (RDX). Both types contain polyurethane (PU), formulated by hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) and Isophorondiisocyanate (IPDI). The third type based on (RDX) and polyisoprene (PI) as high elastomeric material. The first and second types of thin sheets were prepared by applying the casting technique while the third type was prepared by slurry technique then followed by rolling of the prepared beads of the RDX coated by PI. These high energy sheet materials were cured in oven at 60°C. The measured explosive properties of the prepared sheets were discussed and showed that the sensitivity to impact and friction of the prepared sheets explosives materials were markedly decreased when compared to pure HMX or pure RDX, but the sensitivity to heat was close to that of pure RDX. In spite of the markedly decrease in the sensitivity of these sheets, the explosive characteristics were nearly not affected the sheets have very good stress-strain values.

Annealing treatment is adopted for studying the changes of structure and low temperature superconducting performance of YBCO thin film on MgO Substrate. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis results show that c axis orientation of YBCO thin film is optimized with the rise of annealing temperature. It reaches the optimum value at 720 °C. The c axis orientation of YBCO thin film shows recession when the annealing temperature is higher than 720 °C. The change trend of increasing firstly and decreasing subsequently is also discovered with annealing temperature, the optimal critical current density value is obtained at about 730 °C. Research results show that the YBCO thin film structure and low temperature superconducting performance can be effectively improved through optimizing annealing temperature.

The preparation and application of Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium Bromide/Nano-ZnO and Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes (CTAB/ZnO-MWNTs) Modified Electrodes was studied, establishing a new electrochemical method for determination of carteolol hydrochloride in urine. After its pre-enrichment by adsorption and extraction on modified electrodes, electrochemical behaviors of carteolol hydrochloride on the modified electrodes were studied by CV and DPV. The response is linear at the range of 1×10^-3 ∼ 2×10^-1 g/L, with a detection limit of 2×10^-4 g/L. Under appropriate conditions, the content of carteolol hydrochloride in urine can be determined directly by the method, which had strong anti-interference ability and the recovery is 96.5% - 110.5%. In addition, extraction and adsorption behaviors of the modified electrodes for carteolol hydrochloride were studied by chronocoulumetry, and the results showed that extraction during the enrichment process played a major role at low concentrations, and contribution of surface adsorption became greater with the increase of concentrations.

Iridium tris-acetylacetonate is the most commonly used precursor for the metal organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) of iridium coating. In this paper, the crystal morphology effect of iridium tris-acetylacetonate on iridium coatings prepared by MOCVD was studied. Two kinds of Ir(acac)₃ crystalline powder were prepared. A precursor sublimation experiment in a fixed bed reactor and an iridium deposition experiment in a cold-wall atmospheric CVD reactor were designed. It is found that the volatility of the hexagonal columnar crystals is better than that of the tetragonal flake crystals under the experimental conditions. It's due to the hexagonal columnar crystals exposed more crystal faces than the tetragonal flake crystals, increasing its contact area with the transport gas. An adequate supply of iridium tris-acetylacetonate during the pre-deposition period contributed to obtain an iridium coating with a smooth and uniform continuity surface.

In this study, a novel non-residual fracturing fluid was developed. This fracturing fluid system is crosslinked under acid condition and owns the advantages of fast dissolving, excellent sand carrying ability, non-residual, good anti-swelling property and low damage etc. Experimental results show that this system viscosity can reach 95% of peak viscosity in 3 minutes, the surface tension of the gel breaking liquid is 25 mN/m, the residue content of the gel breaking fluid is 10mg/L, core permeability damage rate less than 15% which greatly reduces the damage to formation and fracture conductivity. The shear viscosity of fracturing fluid for 90min is 260 mPa.s, it has good resistance to high temperature and shearing performance and can meet the requirements of fracturing in tight reservoir. The new fluid was tested in 65 wells in the tight gas and oil reservoir in western China. Oil &gas production after stimulation using the new fluid increased 2-5 times compared with wells in similar locations.

According to the geometric pass of roll and technological parameters of three-roller continuous mandrel rolling mill in a factory, a finite element model is established to simulate the continuous rolling process of seamless steel tube, and the reliability of finite element model is verified by comparing with the simulation results and actual results of rolling force, wall thickness and outer diameter of the tube. The effect of roller reduction, roller rotation speed and blooming temperature on the spread rule is studied. Based on BP(Back Propagation) neural network technology, a spread prediction model of continuous rolling tube is established for training wall thickness coefficient and spread coefficient of the continuous rolling tube, and the rapid and accurate prediction of continuous rolling tube size is realized.

To solve the metal corrosion problem of transmission line tower grounding grid, a composite grounding material technique based on flexible graphite grounding is proposed. Using CDEGS software, the power frequency grounding resistances with different soils layers and different ground network size of tower are simulated. The researches show that layered soil resistance can be reduced by laying vertical grounding body and uniform soil can reduce ground resistance by increasing grounding network size.

Vibration analysis is studied numerically in this paper for a simply supported composite plate subjected to external loadings. Vibrations are controlled by using piezoelectric patches. Finite element method (ANSYS) is used for obtaining finite element model of the smart plate structure, a layered composite plate is manufactured experimentally and tested to obtain the structure mechanical properties. Different piezoelectric patch areas and different applied gain voltage effects on vibration attenuation is studied. The numerical solution is compared with the experimental work, a good agreement achieved.

The microstructure, mechanical properties and damping capacities of Mg-Zn-Y alloys were investigated and compared systematically. The results showed that strength and damping of the alloy were increasing markedly with the increase of the volume fraction of long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase (8%, 16%, 32%, 64%, respectively) on the whole. The corporate effect of LPSO phase and solid solution atoms was beneficial to the strengths. The Mg-1.36Zn-2.28Y can be classified as high damping metals (Q⁻¹≧0.01) at strain amplitudes surpassing 1×10^-3. With increasing of the LPSO phase, the critical strain amplitudes of alloys gradually decreased so that alloys can break away from pinning points more easily, thus, achieving a more superior damping performance. In addition, the strain amplitude-independent damping and strain amplitude-dependent damping of the Mg–Zn–Y alloys both increased. The damping capacities of the alloys cannot be explained by the Granato–Lücke theory exclusively.

Damping properties of ZK60-2.8Nd magnesium alloys as-cast, solution and extrusion were investigated by dynamic mechanical thermal analyzer. The results show that ZK60-2.8Nd magnesium alloy extrusion and solution exhibit almost the same strain independent damping value as that of alloy as-cast, the critical strain amplitude is about 5×10^-5. Solution treatment effects the distribution of solution atoms, and dynamic re-crystallization during the hot extrusion increases movable dislocation density ρ, which makes the dislocations easier to move on the basal plane. Within the strain range of 5×10^-5≤≤4×10⁻⁴, the strain dependent damping value of ZK60-2.8Nd magnesium alloy as-solution is the highest, and that of the alloy as-cast is the least due to the grain sizes increase of the alloy as-solution and dynamic re-crystallization of the alloy as-extrusion leading the increase of movable dislocation density. Within scope of the experiment, the maximum damping value of alloy as-cast, solution and extrusion is 0.03371, 0.01546 and 0.01392, respectively.

In this paper, 72.5 kV oil-immersed bushing was produced in laboratory. The frequency-domain dielectric response tests of oil-immersed bushings were carried out at different test temperatures. The experimental data were fitted by using the modified double relaxation Cole-Cole dielectric model. The influence of temperature variation on the dielectric response test of the oil-immersed bushing and the Cole-Cole dielectric model parameters were analysed. The results showed that with the increase of the test temperature, the spectrum of the real and imaginary of the complex permittivity are shifted to the high frequency direction; the parameters of the dielectric model are significantly affected by temperature.

In the actual operation of butterfly valve, the butterfly valve is found severe erosion wear. A solid particle erosion analysis of butterfly valve based on the erosion theory is researched in this study. A CFD model has been built to simulate the flow erosion. Different parameters of butterfly valve including inlet velocity, particle mass fraction and solid particle diameter are separately analysed. The results show that erosion rate increase with the increase of inlet velocity, particle mass fraction and solid particle diameter. The peak erosion rate is up to 4.63E-5 (kg/m²/s) and erosion of valve disc mainly occurs around the upstream edge and the cylinder face.

Although surface wettability plays a major role in regulating protein adsorption and nanostructured ZnO has shown great potential in various biomedical fields, few reports have examined the influence of nano-ZnO surface wettability on protein adsorption. Herein, we explored the adsorption behavior of bovine serum albumin (BSA) on the superhydrophilic, hydrophilic, hydrophobic and superhydrophobic nano-ZnO surfaces. The adsorption amount of BSA increased with increase of hydrophilicity because of increased adsorption sites on the hydrophilic surface. The protein adsorption was proved to occur along with the desorption and conformational changes by well-fitted kinetic adsorption curves with the Spreading Particle Model and Fourier transformation infrared spectral analysis. The rates of BSA adsorption and desorption increased with hydrophobicity of the ZnO surfaces, which was considered to be related with the energy barrier created by water bound to the ZnO surfaces via hydrogen bonding. The rate of conformational change varied in a complex way, which might be influenced by the surface wettability of ZnO and some other factors. The present work may open up a new avenue to design nano-bio interfacial materials for advanced biological study and clinical applications.

In order to study the damage evolution law of composite solid propellants, the molecular dynamics particle filled algorithm was used to establish the mesoscopic structure model of HTPB(Hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene) propellants. The cohesive element method was employed for the adhesion interface between AP(Ammonium perchlorate) particle and HTPB matrix and the bilinear cohesive zone model was used to describe the mechanical response of the interface elements. The inversion analysis method based on Hooke-Jeeves optimization algorithm was employed to identify the parameters of cohesive zone model(CZM) of the particle/binder interface. Then, the optimized parameters were applied to the commercial finite element software ABAQUS to simulate the damage evolution process for AP particle and HTPB matrix, including the initiation, development, gathering and macroscopic crack. Finally, the stress-strain simulation curve was compared with the experiment curves. The result shows that the bilinear cohesive zone model can accurately describe the debonding and fracture process between the AP particles and HTPB matrix under the uniaxial tension loading.

In the present investigation, two methods were used for addition multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT_S) into carbon fiber (CF)/epoxy resin composite system. The mechanical properties of the prepared samples were compared to show the best method for addition of MWCNT_S from point of view of mechanical properties. The introduction of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) into fiber reinforced polymer composites has been achieved mainly via two routes: mixing CNTs entirely throughout the matrix (matrix modification) or attaching CNTs onto reinforcing fibers (interface modification). In all previous references the addition of CNTs occur through one route from the two routes but in this research, we introduced MWCNT_S into CF/epoxy resin composite through the two routes at the same time. Three CF composite samples were prepared CF/epoxy resin composite (C1), CF/1wt% MWCNT_S /epoxy resin composite (C2) in which MWCNT_S added via one route (epoxy resin system) and the third sample was CF/1wt% MWCNT_S / epoxy resin composite (C3) in which MWCNT_S added via two routes (epoxy resin and CF fabric). The result shows that the mechanical properties of C3>C2>C1, for example, the flexural strength of C3 higher than C2 by 19% and C2 higher than C1 by 51% respectively. This is because addition MWCNT_S via two routes increase the ability of good mixing of CNT_S with epoxy resin and good dispersion of CNTs into the CF fabric surface and this leads to improve the interface bonding between the CF and epoxy so improve the mechanical properties.

Scanning Acoustic Microscopy (SAM) is a typical inspection method in the semiconductor IC manufacturing industry. Because the die thickness is a key parameter for SIM card, a new method to measure the internal die thickness of SIM card is proposed with SAM's reflective scanning mode. Using this method the internal die thickness of SIM card can be accurately measured without introducing any damages to SIM card. The thickness model and methodology based on the SAM signals have been established. The model was properly verified and calibrated by two real test cases.

The mesoporous perovskite morphologies and optical and electronic properties are influenced by many parameters with which the device performance could be affected. Firstly, the working temperature can be mentioned. Secondly the substrate temperature which combined with spin coated speed could permit to load perovskite inside the mesoporous independent to working temperature. And other factor as the methyl ammonium iodide (CH₃NH₃I) solution concentration could be temperature dependent on the lead iodide, means the reaction is most probable done when the concentration increase with the increasing temperature, whereas the reaction between lead iodide and methyl ammonium can be decrease with lead iodide thickness. It is most probable that the solution concentration also has a significant effect on the morphology of the perovskite that is confined in the pores of the mesoporous TiO₂. It is most probable also the spin coating speed has added at this decreasing, meaning the large size of crystal decreased the transformation lead iodide to Perovskite. Andhere it will try to explain thickness of capping layer can improve the short-circuit photocurrent (J_sc) but this enhancement decrease with high working temperature.

Magnetic sensors used in Above Ground Markers (AGM) to measure the magnetic field signals are one of the main parts of AGM. By collecting the change of magnetic field parameter using magnetic sensors, AGM can record the precise time when MFL_PIG is passing by the AGM. In this paper, the magnetic sensors, such as induced coil and magneto-resistive sensor, are investigated in characteristics and performance of measurement. With advantages of low cost, high resolution and wide range of measurement, the induced coil is adopted in a novel AGM. The traction test, seal ability test and temperature test show that the AGM with induced coil as magnetic sensor works well under extreme condition and reacts to change the magnetic field with high sensibility.

The limit switch plates of nuclear power plant unit 1 in the turbine bypass system valve are finding multiple fractures. On the basis of metallographic analysis and vibration analysis, the stress state of the pressure plate is simulated and calculated. The results show that there are some creases in the original plate of the limit switch and the installation error of the pressure plate is the main reason for the break.

In this article, heavy rain tests under two rainfall intensities are introduced. Three kinds of bushings with different water-cut-sheds were used in these tests. Then leakage currents monitored during tests are analysed and contrasted to obtain characteristics and tendency. The results show that maximum value of leakage current is affected by voltage applied, profile of water-cut sheds, and the rainfall intensity. Higher AC voltage applied on bushing leads to higher peak of leakage current. More and larger water-cut sheds makes bushing able to withstand higher leakage current. Heavier rain may cause leakage current rise totally. These results may be helpful in online monitoring of insulation.

With the large-scale construction of special high-voltage project, as well as power supply reliability, security, economic and other increasingly demanding, state monitoring equipment involved in more and more monitoring projects and more and more monitoring data, because these data exist in multiple isolated systems in the Ultra-High Voltage(UHV) AC-DC substation, there is no data sharing mechanism, so a holistic analysis, application and sharing approach for the data set will need a deep consideration. In this paper, the equipment condition monitoring system frame of the UHV converter station and the scheme of the equipment state data access of UHV converter station based on the multi-source and heterogeneous data fusion are presented. Then, data exchange technology of UHV equipment state early warning center was introduced, and a data access and conversion device in the Zhongzhou converter station was deployed to solve the timeliness and functionality difficult of the existing system to meet the requirements of UHV operation and maintenance support.

High-speed on/off valve, an important part of turbocharging system, its quick response has a direct impact on the turbocharger pressure cycle. The methods of improving the response characteristic of high speed on/off valve include increasing the magnetic force of armature and the voltage, decreasing the mass and current of coil. The less coil number of turns, the solenoid force is smaller. The special armature structure and the magnetic material will raise cost. In this paper a new scheme of double voltage driving circuit is investigated, in which the original driving circuit of high-speed on/off valve is replaced by double voltage driving circuit. The detailed theoretical analysis and simulations were carried out on the double voltage driving circuit, it showed that the switching time and delay time of the valve respectively are 3.3ms, 5.3ms, 1.9ms and 1.8ms. When it is driven by the double voltage driving circuit, the switching time and delay time of this valve are reduced, optimizing its response characteristic. By the comparison related factors (such as duty cycle or working frequency) about influences on response characteristic, the superior of double voltage driving circuit has been further confirmed.

Photovoltaic (PV) system usually employed The Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques for increasing its efficiency. The performance of the PV system perhaps boosts by controlling at its apex point of power, in this way maximal power can be given to load. The proficiency of a PV system usually depends upon irradiance, temperature and array architecture. PV array shows a non-linear style for V-I curve and maximal power point on V-P curve also varies with changing environmental conditions. MPPT methods grantees that a PV module is regulated at reference voltage and to produce entire usage of the maximal output power. This paper gives analysis between two widely employed Perturb and Observe (P&O) and Incremental Conductance (INC) MPPT techniques. Their performance is evaluated and compared through theoretical analysis and digital simulation on the basis of response time and efficiency under varying irradiance and temperature condition using Matlab/Simulink.

In order to study the influence of temperature on the frequency domain spectroscopy (FDS) of the oil-paper insulation system, the 72.5kV bushing test model was fabricated according to the actual size, and the FDS of the bushing was tested at different temperatures. According to the test curves of the dielectric constant at different temperatures, the influence of temperature on FDS is analysed, and then the extended Debye equivalent circuit model is used to fit the FDS test curves at different temperatures. The characteristic parameters that could be used to characterize the temperature characteristics are extracted, and the relationship between the characteristic parameters and the temperature is established. The results show that dielectric constant tend to move in the high frequency with the increase of temperature. The parameters of the equivalent circuit model are sensitive to the temperature, the insulation resistance R_g and the maximum time constant branch parameter R₁ show the exponential function with the temperature, the minimum time constant branch parameter R₃ and the temperature show a power function relationship, so the variation of characteristic parameters can be applied to evaluate the influence of temperature on the FDS of the oil-paper insulation bushing.

Pipeline integrity is significant to safe operation of long-range pipeline. To avoid critical failure of the pipeline, which may lead to great loss of property and life, MFL_PIG is often used to detect the corrosion and leakage of the pipeline. To accurately locate the defects, mileage pulses emitted by the mileage wheel are used to and emit signal to single-chip microcomputer for position. This paper investigates the factors that may affect the precision of mileage wheel, an important part of pipeline corrosion and leakage detector (MFL_PIG), investigate its working principle and present an optimized algorithm for mileage wheel to increase the precision of detection.

A lot of research has been done on photovoltaic (the "PV") power system islanding detection in recent years. As a comparison, much less attention has been paid to islanding in wind turbines. Meanwhile, wind turbines can work in islanding conditions for quite a long period, which can be harmful to equipments and cause safety hazards. This paper presents and examines a double fed introduction generation (the "DFIG") islanding detection scheme based on feedback of reactive power and frequency and uses a trigger signal of reactive power infusion which can be obtained by dividing the voltage total harmonic distortion (the "THD") by the voltage THD of last cycle to avoid the deterioration of power quality. This DFIG islanding detection scheme uses feedback of reactive power current loop to amplify the frequency differences in islanding and normal conditions. Simulation results show that the DFIG islanding detection scheme is effective.

Shore-hoisting motor in the daily work will produce a large number of vibration signal data,in order to analyze the correlation among the data and discover the fault and potential safety hazard of the motor, the data are discretized first, and then Apriori algorithm are used to mine the strong association rules among the data. The results show that the relationship between day 1 and day 16 is the most closely related, which can guide the staff to analyze the work of these two days of motor to find and solve the problem of fault and safety.

The precise knowledge of the load weight of each operation of the quayside container crane is important for accurately assessing the service life of the crane. The load weight is directly related to the vibration intensity. Through the study on the vibration of the hoist motor of the crane in radial and axial directions, we can classify the load using K-means clustering algorithm and quantitative statistical analysis. Vibration in radial direction is significantly and positively correlated with that in axial direction by correlation analysis, which means that we can use the data only in one of the directions to carry out the study improving then the efficiency without degrading the accuracy of load classification. The proposed method can well represent the real-time working condition of the crane.

Quay container crane hoisting motor is a complex system, and the characteristics of long-term evolution and change of running status of there is a rule, and use it. Through association rules analysis, this paper introduced the similarity in association rules, and quay container crane hoisting motor status identification. Finally validated by an example, some rules change amplitude is small, regular monitoring, not easy to find, but it is precisely because of these small changes led to mechanical failure. Therefore, using the association rules change in monitoring the motor status has the very strong practical significance.

In this paper, we propose a selection method of the increased amplitude stability parameter for the unstable motion problem of the uniaxial shaker before its stable operation. On the basis of single-axis shaker dynamics equations, an ADMAS and AMESim combined simulation model is established. According to this model, the vibration characteristics under different parameters are solved by using the control variate method. The simulation results show that the motor speed, the eccentric mass and the inclination of screen surface are the three main factors which affect work starting state of uniaxial shaker. The working efficiency of uniaxial shaker is controlled by the motor speed while the amplitude is affected by the eccentric mass. Moreover, the inclination of screen surface plays a decisive role in the distribution of the vibration track before uniaxial shaker reaching the stable operation state. The relatively stable movement is obtained by optimizing the parameters, which provides a new way to improve the stability of uniaxial shaker.

As a sensor for direct measurement of gravity gradient signals, accelerometer plays an important role in the rotating accelerometer-based gravity gradiometer. Therefore, the way to position the accelerometer has an important influence on the gravity gradient measurement. In this article, we have analysed the principle of gravity gradient measurement, and points out some defects in the configuration of traditional gravity gradients. Finally, we proposed a new way to position the accelerometers in gravity gradiometer, in which, the sensitive axis of the opposite accelerometers are in the same direction. And the results of simulation indicate that the measurement error of the new way to position the accelerometers is about 9.29%, while the traditional configuration is about 39.68%, then the the efficacy of the new configuration method could be proven.

In the process of cutting tools, it is very important to monitor the working state of the tools. On the basis of acceleration signal acquisition under the constant speed, time domain and frequency domain analysis of relevant indicators monitor the online of tool wear condition. The analysis results show that the method can effectively judge the tool wear condition in the process of machining. It has certain application value.

Brake squeal is a result of a unstable flutter from brake system, it results to the noise pollution in railway side and excessive wear of wheel tread. A finite element model of brake system for rail freight vehicle is set up, the contact and friction between the brake shoe and wheel tread is considered, the complex modals of brake system are calculated, the possibility of happening chatter and squeal noise are analyzed. The results show that the pressure angle or the brake force direction have a important influence on the unstable chatter and squeal noise, the more greater the pressure angle deviates from the wheel center, the more greater the possibility of happening chatter and squeal noise is, and the possibility of happening chatter and squeal noise is also increased along with the addition of friction factor.

NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline) is widely used in CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design / Computer-Aided Manufacturing) to represent sculptured curves or surfaces. In this paper, we develop a 5-axis NURBS real-time interpolator and realize it in our developing CNC(Computer Numerical Control) system. At first, we use two NURBS curves to represent tool-tip and tool-axis path respectively. According to feedrate and Taylor series extension, servo-controlling signals of 5 axes are obtained for each interpolating cycle. Then, generation procedure of NC(Numerical Control) code with the presented method is introduced and the method how to integrate the interpolator into our developing CNC system is given. And also, the servo-controlling structure of the CNC system is introduced. Through the illustration, it has been indicated that the proposed method can enhance the machining accuracy and the spline interpolator is feasible for 5-axis CNC system.

Drug addiction poses a serious problem to our species. The worry that our significant family might be involved in drug use and are concerned to know how to detect drug use. Examinations of thirty taped EEG recordings were performed. The subjects consist of three group: addictive, methadone treatment (rehabilitation), and control (normal) which 10 subjects for each group. Statistical analysis was performed for the relative frequency of wave bands. The higher average amplitude is obtained from the addiction subjects. In the comparison with the signals source, channels P3 provide slightly higher average amplitude than other channels for all of subjects.
