Study on process and performance of laser heating assisted micro cutting of alumina ceramics
For the study of alumina ceramic micro turning machining performance, using (IPGPhotonis) fiber laser heating assisted cutting. Due to the high strength and hardness of the alumina ceramics, using cubic boron nitride (CBN) tool for turning experiment. The effects of different processing parameters such as laser power, spindle speed and feed rate on the surface roughness and tool wear were studied. Compared with the experimental results obtained by laser heating and non-laser heating, we found that the surface quality is improved by laser heating, and the service life of the cutter is prolonged.
Tribological Action and Cutting Performance of MQL Media in Machining of Aluminum
The tribological action of MQL media and atmospheric carrier gases was investigated using controlled atmosphere cutting apparatus. The investigation demonstrated their adsorption behavior onto metal surfaces was in close connection with the cutting performance of a lubricant synthetic ester and carrier gases in practical MQL machining. In particular, the presence of oxygen resulted in unfavorable cutting phenomena in MQL machining of aluminum. A unique technique of MQL media treatment was further proposed to prepare oil mist sprays containing microdroplets of water. This advanced technique provided some possibilities of improving the tribological action of MQL media in machining of aluminum.
Frontal cognitive dysfunction in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy
Purpose: The aim of the present study was to investigate the possible frontal cognitive dysfunction in patients with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) and to compare the results with those of patients with frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE) and temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), as well as with controls.
