However, there is no appropriate method for measuring the internal velocity because of the destructive power of debris flow process. In this paper, we address this problem by using the relationship between velocity and kinetic pressure, as described by surface velocity and surface kinetic pressure data. Kinetic pressure is the difference of impact pressure and static pressure. The former is detected by force sensors installed in the flow direction at the sampling section. Observations show that static pressure can be computed using the formula for static water pressure by simply substituting water density for debris flow density. We describe the relationship between surface velocity and surface kinetic pressure using data from seven laboratory flume experiments. It is consistent with the relationship for single phase flow, which is the measurement principle of the Pitot tube.展开更多

In addition, two instances of the application of this principle to ultra-precision machining of KDP crystals are presented. Computer-controlled optical surfacing （CCOS） and diamond wire cutting （DWC） process were carried out according to the MWDM principle. In the case of the CCOS technology, it is found that the micro-waviness was removed completely by following the MWDM principle. The surface undulation decreased from 40 nm to less than 10 nm, and the surface root-mean-square （rms） roughness obviously reduced from 8.147 to 2.660 nm. In the case of the DWC process, the surface rms roughness reduced from 8.012 to 2.391 gm, and the cutting efficiency was improved. These results indicate that the MWDM principle can efficiently improve the machining quality of KDP optical crystal and has a great potential to machine water-soluble materials.展开更多
