In this process, the heating system parameters and the material properties have important effects on the achieved hardened surface characteristics. The control of these variables using predictive modeling strategies leads to the desired surface properties without following the fastidious trial and error method. However, when the dimensions of the surface to be treated are larger than the cross section of the laser beam, various laser scanning patterns can be used. Due to their effects on the hardened surface properties, the attributes of the selected scanning patterns become significant variables in the process. This paper presents numerical and experimental investigations of four scanning patterns for laser surface hardening of AISI 4340 steel. The investigations are based on exhaustive modelling and simulation efforts carried out using a 3D finite element thermal analysis and structured experimental study according to Taguchi method.

This need is also present in other situations, specifically when the superposition of various medical images is required for fine identification and characterization of some pathologies. Because of their structural characteristics, existing head immobilization systems may be claustrophobic and very uncomfortable for patients, during both the modeling and usage stages. Because of this, it is important to minimize all the discomforts related to the mask to alleviate patients’ distress and to simultaneously guarantee and maximize the restraint effectiveness of the mask. In the present work, various head immobilization mask models are proposed based on geometrical information extracted from computerized tomography images and from 3D laser scanning point clouds. These models also consider the corresponding connection to a radiotherapy table, as this connection is easily altered to accommodate various manufacturers’ solutions. A set of materials used in the radiotherapy field is considered to allow the assessment of the stiffness and strength of the masks when submitted to typical loadings.展开更多

However, there are increased risks, such as damage to existing facilities, unknown site conditions, and other complexities in brownfield sites. In addition to these physical risks, task scheduling is also complex, as vessels need to be replaced during a turnaround. To mitigate the risks of site conditions and realize a truncated schedule for Saudi Aramco’s operations, 3D laser scanning was combined with 3D modeling, clash detection, and time. This integrated approach minimized the shutdown period, which resulted in cost savings, heightened safety, and enhanced stakeholder communications.展开更多

文摘Immobilization devices may be a valuable aid to ensure the improved effectiveness of radiotherapy treatments where constraining the movements of specific anatomical segments is crucial. This need is also present in other situations, specifically when the superposition of various medical images is required for fine identification and characterization of some pathologies. Because of their structural characteristics, existing head immobilization systems may be claustrophobic and very uncomfortable for patients, during both the modeling and usage stages. Because of this, it is important to minimize all the discomforts related to the mask to alleviate patients’ distress and to simultaneously guarantee and maximize the restraint effectiveness of the mask. In the present work, various head immobilization mask models are proposed based on geometrical information extracted from computerized tomography images and from 3D laser scanning point clouds. These models also consider the corresponding connection to a radiotherapy table, as this connection is easily altered to accommodate various manufacturers’ solutions. A set of materials used in the radiotherapy field is considered to allow the assessment of the stiffness and strength of the masks when submitted to typical loadings.

文摘Deformation monitoring is vital for tunnel engineering.Traditional monitoring techniques measure only a few data points,which is insufficient to understand the deformation of the entire tunnel.Terrestrial Laser Scanning(TLS)is a newly developed technique that can collect thousands of data points in a few minutes,with promising applications to tunnel deformation monitoring.The raw point cloud collected from TLS cannot display tunnel deformation;therefore,a new 3D modeling algorithm was developed for this purpose.The 3D modeling algorithm includes modules for preprocessing the point cloud,extracting the tunnel axis,performing coordinate transformations,performing noise reduction and generating the 3D model.Measurement results from TLS were compared to the results of total station and numerical simulation,confirming the reliability of TLS for tunnel deformation monitoring.Finally,a case study of the Shanghai West Changjiang Road tunnel is introduced,where TLS was applied to measure shield tunnel deformation over multiple sections.Settlement,segment dislocation and cross section convergence were measured and visualized using the proposed 3D modeling algorithm.

文摘The present study considers the damage mechanisms and the rainfall infiltration process responsible for landslide phenomena which originate from accumulation slopes.Accordingly,a physical test model is developed for different slopes and different rainfall conditions.Moreover,a three-dimensional laser scanner and a camera are used to monitor the slope erosion and the landslide dynamic evolution.Using this approach,the time variation curves of volumetric water content,pore water pressure,soil pressure,slope deformation,and damage are determined.The results show that under similar conditions,similar trends of the pore water pressure are achieved for different slopes and rainfall intensities.
文摘In the oil and gas industry, operations in greenfield sites are straightforward. However, there are increased risks, such as damage to existing facilities, unknown site conditions, and other complexities in brownfield sites. In addition to these physical risks, task scheduling is also complex, as vessels need to be replaced during a turnaround. To mitigate the risks of site conditions and realize a truncated schedule for Saudi Aramco’s operations, 3D laser scanning was combined with 3D modeling, clash detection, and time. This integrated approach minimized the shutdown period, which resulted in cost savings, heightened safety, and enhanced stakeholder communications.
