Method of Precise Auto Tool Setting for Micro Milling

Based on microscope and image processing, a new method of auto tool setting for micro milling was presented. Firstly, a realtime image of tool setting area was obtained by microscope and CCD camera, then image processing was carried out on this image and the gap between the tool and workpiece was calculated. The gap measurement was sent to motion controlling card to make the tool approach to the surface of workpiece. These steps were repeated until the gap is zero, which means that tool setting was finished. Moreover, a reliability verification test was conducted. Results indicated that the precision of tool setting is satisfactory.

Calculation of Percentage of Coarse Aggregate Present in Concrete Using Processing of Digital Images Obtained with a Commercial Scanner

This paper presents a method for determining the percentage of coarse aggregate in concrete specimens by image processing. The test pieces were produced with the aim of obtaining images of their cross sections through a scanner table. In order to increase the contrast between mortar and coarse aggregate the sliced surfaces were treated with the phenolphthale in solution. The images obtained in the scanner were processed in a program developed with MATLAB （matrix laboratory）. The average coarse aggregate in each section and the mean of coarse aggregate per test body were calculated. With the results, it was revealed that the method returned satisfying results when compared to the original trace of the concrete.

Sustainable Design in Space Structures

The sustainable design approach presented in this paper supports an increased commitment to environmental stewardship and conservation, and results in an optimal balance of cost, environmental, societal, and human benefits while meeting the mission and function of the intended space structure. The aim of this paper is to develop the guidelines that could be applied in the design of a space structure in order to achieve the optimal overall lifetime performance of the space structure. Space structures are more than inanimate hunks of metal, glass and fabric. Every space structure that we design as structural engineers is like a child - a child that is conceived with a passionate vision of its form, structure and purpose; nurtured through the schematic design phase and the development of construction documents; and cared for during the labor pains of plan check corrections, requests for information, shop drawing review, and construction observation. Like children, our space structures mature, perform necessary functions during their lives, and eventually, grow old and die. The design of a sustainable space structure is a much more challenging and cross-disciplinary process than in the past and therefore it is necessary that the space structure is viewed as an integrated system and that all members of the design team work in a fully integrated fashion.

Dynamic Diagrams Post Processing Software Tools for Simulation Analysis of Spacecraft Docking Dynamics

Realistic 3D-animation is used in all motion simulation systems of mechanisms and other mechanicals systems. It provides a high-quality illustration of time processes, but it has a weak capability for analysis of their dynamics, for simultaneous display of contact interaction and functioning of mechanisms of different motion types. A spacecraft docking is characterized by a complex contact interaction of docking assemblies with mechanisms and devices of different motion types. Integration and time synchronization of the animation, plots and numerical values greatly facilitates the understanding of dynamics features of these processes. Usage of simple wireframe graphical models allows displaying all contact points. A changing of the set of graphical elements focuses attention on major events of a simulated process. Graphical models developed with consideration of these features and used for spacecraft docking simulation analysis are called dynamic diagrams and described in this paper.

Automatic GUI Test by Using SIFT Matching

In software development process, the last step is usually the Graphic User In- terface（GUI） test, which is part of the final user experience （UE） test. Traditionally, there exist some GUI test tools in the market, such as Abbot Java GUI Test Framework and Pounder, in which testers pre-configure in the script all desired actions and instructions for the computer, nonetheless requiring too much of invariance of GUI environment; and they require reconfiguration in case of GUI changes, therefore still to be done mostly manually and hard for non-programmer testers to. Consequently, we proposed GUI tests by image recognition to automate the last process; we managed to innovate upon current algorithms such as SIFT and Random Fern, from which we develop the new algorithm scheme retrieving most efficient feature and dispelling inefficient part of each algorithm. Computers then apply the algorithm, to search for target patterns themselves and take subsequent actions such as manual mouse, keyboard and screen I/O automatically to test the GUI without any manual instructions. Test results showed that the proposed approach can accelerate GU! test largely compared to current benchmarks.

An embedded lightweight GUI component library and ergonomics optimization method for industry process monitoring

Developing an efficient and robust lightweight graphic user interface （GUI） for industry process monitoring is always a challenging task. Current implementation methods for embedded GUI are with the matters of real-time processing and ergonomics performance. To address the issue, an embedded lightweight GUI component library design method based on quasar technology embedded （Qt/E） is proposed. First, an entity-relationship （E-R） model for the GUI library is developed to define the functional framework and data coupling relations. Second, a cross-compilation environment is constructed, and the QI/E shared library files are tailored to satisfy the requirements of embedded target systems. Third, by using the signal-slot communication interfaces, a message mapping mechanism that does not require a call-back pointer is developed, and the context switching performance is improved. According to the multi-thread method, the parallel task processing capabilities fbr data collection, calculation, and display are enhanced, and the real-time performance and robustness are guaranteed. Finally, the human-computer interaction process is optimized by a scrolling page method, and the ergonomics pertbrmance is verified by the industrial psychology methods Two numerical cases and five industrial experiments show that the proposed method can increase real-time read-write correction ratios by more than 26% and 29%, compared with Windows-CE-GUl and Android-GUl, respectively. The component library can be tailored to 900 KB and supports 12 hardware platforms. The average session switch time can be controlled within 0.6 s and six key indexes for ergonomics are verified by different industrial applications.
