    A simulation model established by finite element methods using ANSYS software shows the distribution temperature field on the diamond wheel. The actual dressing experiment was conducted by the same EDM parameters as the numerical simulation model. And the wheel surface topographies before and after dressing was observed by optical microscope (KEYENCE VH-8000 Digital HD).The analyses show that the theoretical calculation results are consistent with those of experiments under the same experimental conditions. The simulation model is benefit to quality forecast, parameter regulation and optimization in the process of truing and dressing diamond wheel. It also helps to avoid that high temperature make diamond grain graphitization or the temperature is not high enough to remove the metal bond well. The simulation model can keep from the blindness to true and dress diamond wheel directly.

    This paper focused on establishing a sound 3-D heat transfer formulation based on the meshless local Petrov-Galerkin(MLPG) method and was used to solve transient heat transfers in the plasma spraying. The unknown temperature functions were approximated and constructed by a weight function, a polynomial basis and a set of non-constant coefficients. A quartic spline function was selected as the moving least-squares weight and test function. A penalty technique was introduced to enforce the essential boundary conditions. The effect of scaling parameters on numerical solutions was discussed in detail. The substrate temperature was computed using this formulation numerically. It is found that MLPG solutions can achieve better convergence and higher accuracy compared with FEM and are in good agreement with those from the experiments, suggesting that the MLPG is feasible and efficient and therefore applicable to heat transfer problems during the plasma spray process.

    A novel design of MEMS electrical inertia micro-switch was proposed. In the design, an elastic beam with holes was used as the fixed electrode, and a suspended thicker mass block with conjoined snake springs was used as the mobile electrode locating between the supporting layer and the elastic beam. This designed switch structure benefits the improvement of the sensitivity,the contact effect, and protects the switch against intensive shock damage. The micro-switch had been fabricated using cost-effective electroplating nickel and tested subsequently. The result indicates that the response time and the contact time of the micro-switch are about 0.40ms and 12μs respectively when 100g acceleration is applied, which shows relatively better sensitivity and contact effect. This result has an agreement with that of dynamics finite element contact simulation about the designed micro-switch.

    In the laser tracking 3D coordinate measuring system, the self-calibration should be made before measurement that would take effect mostly on the result. But the precision of the self-calibration is not high. So, in order to enhance the calibration precision, especially give the absolute zero value of the system, a new method of calibrating the absolute zero point coordinates was proposed herein. First, a ordinary laser interferometer was employed to measure the displacement of the object mirror moved along the line, then the base coordinate and absolute zero value of this reference frame can be obtained. Considering the position distribution of base point and target point influence on the calibration precision of this system, an optimization distributions of the base point and the target points were analyzed and confirmed. After the simulation, the result shows that when the target points are distributed symmetrically relative to the base point, the measuring precision of the base point coordinates is much higher.

    The dynamic response frequency change of single tooth bending for automobile transmission gear was investigated during the process of damaging and strengthening. The experimental results show that the natural frequency varies with damaging and strengthening. The natural frequency decreases slowly along with damaging and descendes 3Hz when the single tooth is fractured. On the contrary the natural frequency may be increased to near 2Hz when the single tooth arrives to optimal strengthened effect. The reason of the natural frequency change was primary explained in microstructure. These investigation results will provide new technical base for estimating the damage or strengthening by the dynamic response frequency change.

The relationship between nonmagnetic induced shear capacity and the magnetic induced shear capacity of magnetron granular was established based on Mohr-Coulomb’s failure criterion, magnetic dipole and elasticity theory. And the shear capacity model of ferromagnetic granular in an ideal state was also established. Through the analysis of experimental data, combined with shear capacity model, the shear force model of ferromagnetic granular can be obtained in the role of the magnetic field. The results show that in magnetic field, the shear capacity of ferromagnetic granular includes nonmagnetic induced shear capacity, anti-shearing force, magnetic induced shear capacity, and its anti-shearing force. The magnetic shear capacity and anti-shearing force is related to magnetic field and the volume of ferromagnetic materials.
