The article discusses a new method of modeling the cutter workpiece engagement during contour 2.5-D milling in order to determine the main process parameter - the material removal rate. A data preparation algorithm and a mathematical model of the engagement of the milling cutter with the workpiece are presented, which allow determining the instantaneous volume of the removed tool material and determining the cutting force according to the mechanical model during machining. For simulation, the representation of the workpiece and the tool in the form of polygons is used, and the cutting process is implemented using the logical operations "intersection" and "difference". This approach allows you to detect the volume of material removed by the tool during a certain simulation iteration, taking into account the geometry of its flutes, and to display the new geometric shape of the workpiece after removing material from it. Such a new form will be used to model the next step of the algorithm, which ensures the continuity of the process. The application of the developed algorithm and mathematical model allows obtaining correct data on the instantaneous volume of removed material, which is subsequently used to predict the cutting force and solve the problem of optimizing the contour 2.5D milling process.

Seismic interferometry retrieves the Green’s function propagating between two receiver locations using their recordings from an enclosing boundary of sources. Theory requires that sources completely surround the two receivers, but constraints in exploration seismology restrict sources to locations near the surface of the earth. Seismic interferometry by crosscorrelation then introduces usually undesirable nonphysical reflections (spurious multiples) in the Green’s function estimates. We found that the dominant nonphysical reflections can be converted into physical reflections via convolution using source-receiver interferometry. The resultant Green’s functions display fewer nonphysical reflections and show significantly better agreement with the true Green’s functions than those obtained using crosscorrelational interferometry. Nonphysical reflections can be further suppressed by iterating the convolution step. By comparing the velocity spectra of the Green’s functions retrieved by crosscorrelational and source-receiver interferometry, we can retrospectively identify the dominant nonphysical reflections introduced by crosscorrelational interferometry. We found that the nonphysical reflections are particularly important for constructing the primary reflections and internal multiples in source-receiver interferometry. This is because the primary reflections and internal multiples cannot be created via the convolution of physical reflections. Instead, the primary reflections and internal multiples are retrieved by the appropriate convolution between a nonphysical and physical reflection. We compared crosscorrelational interferometry and source-receiver interferometry using synthetic towed streamer data for a 1D acoustic and 2.5D elastic model, respectively. We also found that the nonphysical reflections obtained using crosscorrelational interferometry allow for the direct estimation of interval velocities and layer thicknesses without the need to use Dix inversion in the 1D example.

Producing accurate structural maps is a pre-requisite to unravel the tectonic evolution of a region. For this purpose, magnetic anomaly maps are helpful data sets for the identification and mapping of geological features. We compiled 154 marine surveys and 7 aeromagnetic campaigns covering the Bay of Biscay, its surrounding continental shelves and western part of the Pyrenees. As the initial data sets had heterogeneous acquisition parameters, we applied a series of transforms before merging the data. We performed a variable reduction to the pole to localize the extrema of the anomaly vertically to their causative sources and facilitate geological interpretations. The resulting intermediate resolution maps compiled at 500 m altitude offshore and 3000 m both on- and offshore, display magnetic trends and patterns. They are enhanced by several potential field operators (analytic signal, tilt angle, vertical derivative) enabling the interpretation of the geometry of the sources causing the anomaly (3D, 2D and 2.5D). The analysis of these magnetic maps allows us to precise the distribution and segmentation of crustal domains previously identified in the Bay of Biscay and its adjacent continental shelves. A series of crustal scale structures mapped onshore and formed during and after the Variscan orogeny show well on this new map compilation, allowing the continuous onshore-offshore mapping of some of them and revealing their role in segmenting the northern margin of the Bay of Biscay. This new compilation notably reveals variations in the magnetic signature of the Ocean-Continent-Transition (OCT) that we interpret as related to an increased magmatic production of the eastern part of the Bay of Biscay OCT during continental breakup. In addition to precise previous structural maps, this new magnetic compilation opens new perspectives for the interpretation of the Bay of Biscay geodynamic setting.

AbstractIn this work, braided carbon fiber reinforced carbon matrix composites (3D-C/C composites) are prepared by chemical vapor infiltration process. Their composite structure, mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and in vivo experiments are investigated and compared with those of traditional 2.5D-C/C composites and titanium alloys TC4. The results show that 3D-C/C composites are composed of reinforced braided carbon fiber bundles and pyrolytic carbon matrix and provide 51% open pores with a size larger than 100 μm for tissue adhesion and growth. The Young’s modulus of 3D-C/C composites is about 5 GPa, much smaller than those of 2.5D-C/C composites and TC4, while close to the autogenous bone. 3D-C/C composites have a higher tensile strength (167 MPa) and larger elongation (5.0%) than 2.5D-C/C composites (81 MPa and 0.7%), and do not show obvious degradation after 1 × 106 cyclic tensile loading. The 3D-C/C composites display good biocompatibility and have almost no artifacts on CT imaging. The in vivo experiment reveals that 3D-C/C composites artificial ribs implanted in dogs do not show displacement or fracture in 1 year, and there are no obvious proliferation and inflammation in the soft tissues around 3D-C/C composites implant. Our findings demonstrate that 3D-C/C composites are suitable for chest wall reconstruction and present great potentials in artificial bones.
