    The computational cost of conventional BEM is relatively high when solving large scale acoustic problems.A multipole Galerkin BEM based on Burdon-Miller formulation was established.Based on the former two dimensional fast multipole BEM code,diagonal expansion form of kernel function,the adaptive tree
    structure and the approximate inverse pre-conditioner were  adopted to improve the numerical efficiency.Finally,two numerical examples including a rectangular tube and a rigid cylinder scattering problem were solved by multipole Galerkin BEM.The numerical results show that, the non-unique problem associated with infinite domain acoustic problems is solved by the Burdon-Miller formulation.Compared with conventional BEM,the computational complexity of the multipole Galerkin BEM will be reduced from
    O(n2) to O(nlog2 n).These two examples demonstrate clearly  that the present multipole Galerkin BEM is effective to solve large-scale acoustic problems.

    thus for machining micro line blocks, a lookahead algorithm was proposed based on cubic polynomial displacement incremental acceleration and deceleration control model. This algorithm divided into two stages, including program segments preprocess and real time interpolation. By linking of program segments, the planning for program segments was changed for program links during program segments preprocess stage. During real time stage, the interpolation compution was achieved by the obtained data information of program links. The machining process of some free-form surface was presented to validate the efficiency of the algorithm.

    According to the actuality that practical application of parallel mechanism is limited by less flexibility, large joint errors, and strong nonlinear coupling, a new redundant parallel mechanism based on tetrahedral configuration was proposed. The degree of freedom and singularity behavior of the mechanism were both analysed based on the theory of reciprocal screw. Coupling characteristics were given quantitatively by the method of topology. Three-point method was used to derive the analytical expression of forward kinematics, and the errors were compensated by obtaining the minimum norm solution of constraint equations. Above results show that kinematics characteristics of the proposed parallel mechanism are superior, which provide forceful conditions for further controlling steadily, in real-time and accurately.

    herein for saving time.Numerical results reveal that,in the whole striking process,appearing and changing of the central pressure and edge-peak pressure are analyzed,and when the ellipsoid leaves the oil,these pressures are combined into a high pressure.A dimple of surface is produced by the effect of pure squeeze,and the pressure is distributed in the dimple.In addition the bigger ellipticity ratios,the shorter striking time,the less change of film thickness and the earlier inflection point of the curve.At last,the numerical simulation of the curve of the central pressure against time achieved by Safa and Gohar in their experiment is performed,and  the simulation results are close to the test curve, which prove the correctness of the procedure.

The results show that the residual static strength of material is increased with fatigue strengthening and decreased with fatigue damaging. The change trend of residual static strength is similar to that of the fatigue strength during strengthening and damaging process. However, there are more obvious change characteristics to the residual static strength under the optimal strengthening cycles and load, such as the stability, regularity and accuracy.
