This paper mainly presents a set of new Sapphire Backside Roughing technology. Presently, the associated Sapphire Backside Roughing technology is still concentrated on chemical etching, as its yield rate and efficiency are often limited by lattice structures, and the derived chemical waste fluid after etching is most likely to cause ecological contamination. In this research, refined abrasive jet processing technology is adopted, and in the meantime, the Taguchi experiment design method is taken for detailed experimental planning. Through processing parameter conditions and abrasive selection and development, proper surface roughing and processing uniformity are obtained so as to improve the various weak points of the abovementioned traditional etching effectively. It is discovered that abrasive blasting processing technology is, respectively, combined with wax-coated #1000 SiC particles and wax-coated #800 Zirconium particles to process the sapphire substrate with initial surface roughness 0.8–0.9 μmRa from the experiment. A 1.1–1.2 μmRa surface roughness effect can be achieved about two minutes later. The experimental results show that the actual degree of sapphire substrate surface roughing obtained in the AJM process depends on the gas pressure, impact angle, wax-coated abrasives, and additives. The new Sapphire Backside Roughing technology has high flexibility, which not only meets the requirements for sapphire surface roughing specification but can also effectively reduce the sapphire substrate roughing time and related cost.

This study focuses on the process of the matte roughening technique of Sapphire. In order to effectively improve the shortcomings of conventional chemical etching, research adoptsthe micro abrasive jet machining technology with the experimental design method related experiments planned in order to effectively obtain the appropriate surface roughness and processing uniformity. Study found that # 800 Zirconium applied on the surface of sapphire with the initial surface roughness of about 0.9 μmRa for two minutes forms a surface roughness of about 1.1 μmRa. Not only does this conforms to the industrys sapphire surface specifications, it also effectively reduces the coarsening time and associated costs of sapphire.

Impact Angle Constraint

A new design method for trajectory shaping guidance laws with the impact angle constraint is proposed in this study. The basic idea is that the multiplier introduced to combine the equations for the terminal constraints is used to shape a flight trajectory as desired. To this end, the general form of impact angle control guidance (IACG) is first derived as a function of an arbitrary constraint-combining multiplier using the optimal control. We reveal that the constraint-combining multiplier satisfying the kinematics can be expressed as a function of state variables. From this result, the constraint-combining multiplier to achieve a desired trajectory can be obtained. Accordingly, when the desired trajectory is designed to satisfy the terminal constraints, the proposed method directly can provide a closed form of IACG laws that can achieve the desired trajectory. The potential significance of the proposed result is that various trajectory shaping IACG laws that can cope with various guidance goals can be readily determined compared to existing approaches. In this study, several examples are shown to validate the proposed method. The results also indicate that previous IACG laws belong to the subset of the proposed result. Finally, the characteristics of the proposed guidance laws are analyzed through numerical simulations.

Abstract Objective: The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the influence of erosive conditions on the wear resistance of aesthetic direct restorative materials. Methods: Six dental filling materials were tested: two composites (Filtek Z550 and X-tra fil), two compomers (Dyract Extra and Twinky Star) and two glass ionomers (Ketac Molar and Fuji II LC). Twenty disks (10mm×2mm) of each material were prepared (n=120) and kept in artificial saliva at 37˚C for 24 hours. Specimens were cycled in acidic soft drink (Coca-Cola) 5×/day, for 5’, over 30 days. Initial surface roughness ISR (Ra-μm) and final surface roughness FSR were measured using a profilometer. The wear rate was calculated as difference of final minus the initial roughness (ΔSR=FSR-ISR). For statistical analysis t-test and one-way ANOVA test were used by GraphPad Prism version 5.03 statistical software. The level of significance was set at p<0.05. Results: The erosive wear rates (mean±SD, μm) after exposure to acidic beverage were: 0.30±0.03 (Ketac Molar), 0.28±0.04 (Fuji II LC), 0.27±0.00 (Filtek Z550), 0.23±0.01 (X-tra fil), 0.20±0.00 (Twinky Star) and 0.14±0.01 Dyract Extra, respectively. There were significant differences between the tested materials (p<0.05). Conclusions: Dental filling materials had different behaviour under the same erosive condition, however all investigated aesthetic restorative materials showed surface degradation. These findings suggest that erosive wear resistance of tooth coloured restoratives could influence their longevity in intraoral acidic conditions.

The Co-Cr-Mo alloy is extensively used for tribological applications, including orthopaedic components in total joint replacements. High quality diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings on metal/alloy substrates are of great interest as they are able to protect them from severe wear and thus prolong the life span of the component. Since the roughness of the metal/alloy varies depending on the applications, a study has been carried out to investigate the effect of substrate surface roughness on the microstructure, sliding life, wear-resistance, coefficient of friction, adhension and hardness of DLC coatings prepared on Co-Cr-Mo alloy substrates under the same deposition condition. The microstructure of the films studied using Raman spectroscopy suggests that the film prepared on a smoother surface contains slightly higher fraction of sp 3 bonded carbon atoms. The characterization using a pin-on-disk tribometer reveals that, the film prepared on the roughest sample (Ra ~ 0.06 μm) exhibits a very short life span of about 20 cycles compared to the film that is prepared on a relatively smoother surface (Ra ~ 0.02 μm), which exhibits a life span of about 340,000 cycles. In order to investigate the origin of this improved property of the DLC film on the smoother surface, adhesive strength and hardness of the films were studied by using a micro-scratch tester and a Nano-indenter, respectively. The results suggest that the film prepared on the smoother surface exhibits better adhesion (higher critical load) and relatively higher hardness.

The effects of substrate material, substrate surface roughness, and operating temperature on the wetting behavior of Sn–37Pb, Sn–3.5Ag, and Sn–9Zn eutectic solders on metallic substrates were investigated. Solder spreading kinetics was successfully represented by the exponential power law (EPL): ϕ=exp(−Kτn). The EPL parameter K has the significance of accelerating the kinetics of relaxation while the parameter n represents the resistance to spreading process (spread resistance parameter). EPL parameters exhibited a decreasing trend with an increase in surface roughness. Estimated activation energies for solder spreading were found to be in between those reported for inert and highly reactive spreading systems.

Abstract The process of the liquid spray impact on the heated surface is studied experimentally using the IR-transparent sapphire plate method. The spatiotemporal distribution of the temperature field on the sapphire substrate surface during impacting spray is received. The obtained experimental data are an important step in a study of the local characteristics of heat transfer in the areas of the contact lines during liquid spray impact on the heated surface. Further, the local heat fluxes and heat transfer coefficients will be determined by solving the problem of thermal conductivity in the sapphire substrate.

AbstractThis paper presents a statistical analysis of process parameters for surface roughness in drilling of Al/Al2O3p metal matrix composite. The experimental studies were conducted under varying spindle speed, feed rate, point angle of drill. The settings of drilling parameters were determined by using Taguchi experimental design method. The level of importance of the drilling parameters is determined by using analysis of variance. The optimum drilling parameter combination was obtained by using the analysis of signal-to-noise ratio. Through statistical analysis of response variables and signal-to-noise ratios, the determined significant factors are depth of cut and drill point angle with the contributions of 87% and 12% respectively, whereas the cutting speed is insignificant contributing by 1% only. Confirmation tests verified that the selected optimal combination of process parameter through Taguchi design was able to achieve desired surface roughness.
