The CNC machine tool is used to cut the coating and the X-ray stress equipment is used to measure the residual stress of coating. The experimental and FEM results agree with each other. Also, the residual-stress coating depth is deeper and the residual stress of the coating surface is larger with increasing cutting speed. In addition, the residual stress of the coating surface is in the suppression state affected by axial residual stress and circumferential residual stress, and the residual stress of the deeper coating is in the tensile state based on the original state of arc spraying and cutting process.展开更多

This study, conducted in Portland, Oregon, relied on the capabilities of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to precisely and scientifically identify an intervention area (with high shelter intake) and to identify control areas to compare the project results with community-wide trends. The intervention itself was designed and implemented in a comprehensive way by seeking numerous paths to engage pet owners and reduce shelter intake of cats and Pit Bull type dogs. This research highlighted the ability of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to significantly improve a community’s capacity to identify the most appropriate locations to focus resources and to closely track and measure interventions. Portland’s targeted intervention to reduce shelter intake utilized many outreach tools with varying levels of impact. The overall intervention yielded a reduction in intake of owned cats that was greater in total numbers and percentage than four control areas. Furthermore, this work identified a percentage of cat spay/neuter out of the estimated number of owned, originally intact cats within the intervention and control areas. As percentages approached or surpassed 20%, those areas realized larger intake reductions than control areas with lower percentages.展开更多
