And it is especially important to test forms completely and thoroughly. Therefore, this paper discusses how to carry out the form testing by different methods in the related testing phases. Namely, at first, automatically abstracting forms in the Web pages by parsing the HTML documents; then, ohtai ning the testing data with a certain strategies, such as by requirement specifications, by mining users' hefore input informarion or by recording meehanism; and next executing the testing actions automatically due to the well formed test cases; finally, a case study is given to illustrate the convenient and effective of these methods.展开更多

This paper simulates the microstructures of the hot forged titanium knee joint component by physical modeling. Ti-6Al-4V ELI were deformed by GLEEBLE 2000 hot deforma- tion simulator in compression mode to determine the hot workability, in the range of 900 to 1100℃, with the strain rates between 0.05 to 5 s^(-1). Test results derived from specimens processed by on-cooling test and on-heating test were compared, thereby estimating the effect due to thermal history. The forging process of Ti-6Al-4V ELI tibial base plate of knee joint prostheses was design based on the workability data obtained.展开更多

By studying the changes of intensity, volume, elastic modulus, quality, p H value, the Ca/Si, and mineral phase, it could be found that the first cement decalcification degradation process was the decalcification of calcium hydroxide, and then CSH gel, AFm, etc. The secondary ettringite deposition happened and the decalcification degradation depth was proportional to the square root of time. Moreover, the corresponding strength of cement would be gradually reduced, cement rock volume shrinkage occurred, p H values decreased, the surface elastic modulus decreased down to a certain level, and slightly changed and the Ca/Si was 3.1 from the beginning and lasted down to 1.3.展开更多

Even though this technology has been investigated for many years, insufficient joints can occur easily, as the brazing process is very sensitive concerning the handling parameters. Defects such as voids and cracks are hard to detect by commonly used visual inspection methods. Other nondestructive methods such as radiography or ultrasonic testing are usually not economical for the examination of these joints. Studies proved that the electrical resistance has the potential to serve as an effective alternative for the evaluation of brazed joints. In this study, the authors have compared the electrical resistance and the shear strength. For this, cemented carbides were brazed to steel by means of induction heating at an ambient atmosphere. A silver-based filler metal ( BrazeTec 4900 / Ag 449 ) and a flux ( BrazeTec spezial h / FH12) were selected to enable the brazing process. The brazing time and the temperature were varied in order to produce different joint qualities. After brazing, the resistance was measured on each joint with the 4-point probe method to facilitate a high accuracy. The results underline the possibility to use electrical resistance measurements as an effective tool for a quality control of brazed joints.展开更多

It mainly consists of an FPW delay line oscillator and optical strip waveguides. The fun- damental theories and principles of the device are introduced briefly. A flexural plate-wave delay-line oscillator is designed to work as an acousto-optic (AO) shifter, which has a Klein-Cook parameter of 0.38. Single-mode optical strip waveguides of 2 μm in width and thicknesses of 0.6 μm are designed by using the effective index method for light transmission. The E^y00 mode waveguide polarizers are designed to ensure the consistency of the light polarization in the waveguides. The fabrication process, based on (100) oriented, 450-#m-thick silicon wafers is proposed in detail, and some difficulties in the process are discussed carefully. At last, a series of process tests are undertaken to solve the proposed problems. The results indicate that the proposed design and fabrication process of the device is dependable and realizable.展开更多
