Diamond is one of the hardest and most difficult to polish materials. In this paper, the polishing of {111} and {100} single crystal diamond surfaces by standard chemical mechanical polishing, as used in the silicon industry, is demonstrated. A Logitech Tribo Chemical Mechanical Polishing system with Logitech SF1 Syton and a polyurethane/polyester polishing pad was used. A reduction in roughnes...

In drilling engineering, the wear of tribo-pairs is primary cause for rapid failure rotating seals in pneumatic downhole tools. order to reduce tribo-pairs, a new type was designed this work, which introduced copper alloys between stator and rotor. To elucidate mechanism copper-steel tribo-pair motors, pin-on-disc dry sliding tests with Qbe-2 beryllium bronze pin against 38CrMoAlA steel disc un...

(d) Mechanical propert, Defiexion method, brittle coating method, bonded wire technique, moist coating method, vibration methods involving frequency and damping or damping changes during fatigue test. (e) Penetrating radiation tests. (f) Ultrasonic testing Reflection or through transmission methods. (g) Magneto-inductive tests. (h) Electrical tests. Electrical resistance or tribo-electrical met...

This is a comprehensive review of the recent progresses made in the field of zeolite membranes. It describes zeolitic materials and methods of membrane fabrication, followed by a summary of applications for gas separation, pervaporation and separation of liquid mixtures. Special attention is called to polymer mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) and membranes based on metal organic frame works (MOFs)....

appearing a new field of psychiatry called social psychiatry and its applied field , community psychiatry , the attentions have been drawn toward socio- cultural factors in determining different pathologies and even some theories have been stated. psychiatric symptoms are considered as deviation from social norms and being mental patient is viewed as a social role. severe mental disorders are e...

Our question answering system was built with a number of priorities in mind. First, we wanted to experiment with natural language processing (NLP) technologies such as shallow parsing, named entity tagging, and coreference chaining. We felt that the small number of terms in the questions coupled with the short length of the answers would make NLP technologies clearly beneficial, unlike previous...

Oils and lubricants, once extracted after use from a mechanical system, can hardly be reused, and should be refurbished or replaced in most applications. New methods of in situ oil and lubricant efficiency monitoring systems have been introduced for a wide variety of mechanical systems, such as automobiles, aerospace aircrafts, ships, offshore wind turbines, and deep sea oil drilling rigs. Thes...
