Assessment of machine tool dynamic properties
The paper gives a review of research works focused on cutting process during machine tools working conditions. The main result deals with assessing dynamic compliance (stiffness). The simplified experimental modal analysis of machine tools was carried out. This analysis results in determination the direction of the maximal compliance of a machine structure. The measurements are arranged into a diagram giving overview about the most important properties of the machine tool for operational conditions during machining process. The new measurement method gives the possibility to prevent inaccuracies in production after regular machine inspection
Wavelength Effect on Photocatalytic Reduction of CO2 by Ag/TiO2 Catalyst
Photocatalytic reduction of CO2 by water was performed in the presence of a Ag/TiO2 catalyst under illumination by lamps with different wavelengths (254, 365, and 400 nm). The yields of the main products (methane and methanol) were higher with the 254 nm lamp than with the 365 lamp while no products were observed with the 400 nm lamp. This was because the electron-hole generation rate increased with increasing energy of irradiation (decreasing wavelength) and there were higher densities of electron states at higher energies in TiO2. The increased efficiency of electron-hole generation with a shorter wavelength irradiation increased the efficiency of the catalyst. The energy of the electrons excited by visible light (400 nm) was too low for CO2 photocatalytic reduction.Web of Science32581581
