Proposal for an Enhanced Monitoring Technique for Active Control of Aircraft Flap Asymmetry by Leonardo Baldo, Matteo Davide Lorenzo Dalla Vedova, Jose Maria Cejudo Ruiz

“…Complex mechanical systems like high-lift devices may undergo a wide range of faults, such as a broken transmission torsion bar or wear and tear on control surface actuators just to name a few. These faults can alter the surface symmetry between the two sides of the wing, potentially leading to dangerous conditions. …”

Effects of Micro - Arc Oxidation on Dimensional Accuracy and Properties of 6061 Aluminum Alloy Bush by SONG Na, QIANG Wei, CHEN Zhen, GUO Xiu-qiao, ZHAO Chen-yu

“…At present, there are few studies on the film structure of micro-arc oxidation film on aluminum alloy and the dimensional accuracy change of precision thin wall parts before and after micro-arc oxidation.The samples of 6061 aluminum alloy bushing(precision thin wall parts), used for the aircraft engine fuel control system accessory，were treated by four different micro-arc oxidation processes(A, B, C and D).The microstructure，composition and micro-hardness of micro-arc oxidation ceramic layer were detected and analyzed.Besides, the inner diameter，the cylindricity and the surface roughness of the inner hole before and after MAO were tested.Results showed that the micro-arc oxidation ceramic layer obtained by C and D processing parameters with special auxiliary equipment had excellent properties.The surface hardness could reach 900 HV，which was 6 times of that of 6061 aluminum alloy matrix material.The micro-arc oxidation ceramic layer significantly improved the wear resistance and service life of parts, at the same time met the strict requirement of dimensional precision.This study laid a foundation for the engineering application of aluminum alloy micro-arc oxidation process.…”

Scientific substantiation of approaches to organization and conducting radiation surveys at the rehabilitated radiation sites by I. K. Romanovich

“…The experience in the radiation survey of the peaceful nuclear explosions sites shows the removal of radionuclides from cavities, formed with the use of nuclear explosive technologies for peaceful purposes, on the earth’s surface. An optimized list of radionuclides to be monitored during the radiological survey of rehabilitated facilities was proposed based on the analysis of the composition of radionuclides detected at radiation sites subjected to decontamination. …”

Utilization of NDVI, VTCI and WDI indices in analyzing the effects of drought severity and duration on vegetation density in Siminehrood catchment by Parviz zeaiean Firoozabadi

“…Visible, near-infrared and thermal bands are among the most widely used in the production of products such as vegetation and surface temperature. In this study, from MODIS sensor data to investigate and find the coefficients of spatial relationship between vegetation-surface temperature index (NDVI-TS) and NDVI-ΔTS to extract the time of agricultural drought from June to October 2007 to 2010 in the catchment Siminehrood has been extracted from the Temperature-Vegetation Condition Index (VTCI) and the Water Lack Index (WDI), which are able to detect drought stress on a regional scale. …”
