In the previous paper, the author reported on a technique for preparing vapor-deposited single crystal films as high resolution standards for electron microscopy. The present paper is intended to describe the preparation of several high resolution standards for dark field microscopy and also to mention some results obtained from these studies. Three preparations were used initially: 1.) Graphitized carbon black, 2.) Epitaxially grown particles of different metals prepared by vapor deposition, and 3.) Particles grown epitaxially on the edge of micro-holes formed in a gold single crystal film.The authors successfully obtained dark field micrographs demonstrating the 3.4Å lattice spacing of graphitized carbon black and the Au single crystal (111) lattice of 2.35Å. The latter spacing is especially suitable for dark field imaging because of its preparation, as in 3.), above. After the deposited film of Au (001) orientation is prepared at 400°C the substrate temperature is raised, resulting in the formation of many square micro-holes caused by partial evaporation of the Au film.

Specimen support and astigmatism correction in Electron Microscopy are at least two areas in which lacey polymer films find extensive applications. Although their preparation has been studied for a very long time, present techniques still suffer from incomplete release of the film from its substrate and presence of a large number of pseudo holes in the film. Our method ensures complete removal of the entire lacey film from the substrate and fewer pseudo holes by pre-treating the substrate with Gum Arabic, which acts as a film release agent.The method is based on the classical condensation technique for preparing lacey films which is essentially deposition of minute water or ice droplets on the substrate and laying the polymer film over it, so that micro holes are formed corresponding to the droplets. A microscope glass slide (the substrate) is immersed in 2.0% (w/v) aq. CTAB (cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide)-0.22% (w/v) aq.

Cutting Inserts

In this paper, the thread turning of aluminum 7075-T6 alloy is studied using micro-hole textured solid-lubricant embedded carbide inserts. The primary focus of this work is to enhance the performance of the thread turning process for producing high quality threaded parts. To achieve this, micro-holes were generated by laser micro-machining on the rake face of tools and then, MoS2 and CNT (carbon nanotube) solid-lubricants were embedded into micro-holes. The effects of micro-holes and solid-lubrication on the performance of the thread turning process were examined using traditional tool ( T0), micro-hole textured tool ( T1), micro-hole textured MoS2 embedded tool ( T2), and micro-hole textured CNT embedded tool ( T3). In this study, cutting forces, chip-tool contact length, built-up edge (BUE), surface roughness, and operating cost were investigated. The influence of micro-hole generation on the mechanical strength of cutting inserts was evaluated using the finite element method. The results showed that the fabrication of the micro-holes on the rake surface of cutting inserts has no significant effect on the mechanical strength of the tools. The comparisons of our method with traditional tools demonstrated that the cutting performance improved in the threading process. Our results reveal that the main cutting force, radial thrust force, surface roughness, built-up edge, and chip-tool contact length reduced 37.1%, 40.9%, 37.9%, 58.3%, and 38.2%, respectively, as T3 tools are applied in this process. A cost analysis, based on estimated tooling costs, showed that the T3 tool can yield an 18% reduction in overall operating cost.

The inverse Finite Element Method (iFEM) is receiving more attention for shape sensing due to its independence from the material properties and the external load. However, a proper definition of the model geometry with its boundary conditions is required, together with the acquisition of the structure’s strain field with optimized sensor networks. The iFEM model definition is not trivial in the case of complex structures, in particular, if sensors are not applied on the whole structure allowing just a partial definition of the input strain field. To overcome this issue, this research proposes a simplified iFEM model in which the geometrical complexity is reduced and boundary conditions are tuned with the superimposition of the effects to behave as the real structure. The procedure is assessed for a complex aeronautical structure, where the reference displacement field is first computed in a numerical framework with input strains coming from a direct finite element analysis, confirming the effectiveness of the iFEM based on a simplified geometry. Finally, the model is fed with experimentally acquired strain measurements and the performance of the method is assessed in presence of a high level of uncertainty.
