Experimental Research Using of MQL in Metal Cutting
In this paper an effect of using of minimal quantity lubrication (MQL) technique in turning operations is presented. Experimental research was performed on carbon steel C45E. Technological parameters: depth of cut, feed rate and cutting speed were adjusted to semi-machining and roughing. Higher values of feed and cutting speed were used, than recommended from literature and different types of cooling
and lubrication in turning conditions were applied. As a conventional procedure and technology, lubrication with flooding was applied. As special lubrication the MQL technique was used. During research, monitoring of the cutting force, chip shape, tool wear and surface roughness was performed. Relations between parameters, material machinability and economy of process were analyzed
Uspostavljanje programa selektivnog uzgoja kalifornijske pastrmke (oncorhynchus mykiss, walbaum) u Srbiji
Zahtev za sve većim količinama hrane za ljudsku upotrebu, efikasnost iskorišćavanja hraniva i prostora za gajenje domaćih životinja, kao i pojava mnogih bolesti doveli su do intenzivnog razvijanja selekcionih programa u svim granama poljoprivrede. Za razliku od ostalih gajenih životinja, programi selekcije u akvakulturi su se razvili nešto kasnije usled nedostatka potrebnih procena heritabilnosti, koeficijenata varijacija i korelacija za ekonomski bitne osobine. Trenutno se u akvakulturi samo 1-2% od ukupne proizvodnje zasniva na genetički unapređenim vrstama riba (Gjedrem, 1997). Korišćenjem selektovanih linija riba postiže se više korisnih stvari. Na prvom mestu, programi selekcije riba predstavljaju jedini način stalnog unapređenja ekonomski bitnih osobina kao sto su prirast, konverzija hrane, otpornost na bolesti, smanjenje masnoće u mesu riba. Ribe iz selektovanih linija efikasnije iskorišćavaju hraniva i na taj način smanjuju pritisak na divlje populacije riba koje se koriste za proizvodnju ribljeg brašna, kao glavnog izvora proteina u smešama za ishranu pastrmki. Ribe koje potiču iz divljine ne napreduju zadovoljavajućim brzinom, što znači da su konstantno pod stresom, za razliku od riba poreklom iz selekcionih programa koje pokazuju manji uticaj stresa usled gajenja u zarobljeništvu. Tako se na ovaj način korišćenjem selektovanih linija riba postiže efikasna i održiva proizvodnja uz vođenje računa o dobrobiti životinja. Drugi dobar razlog za uspostavljanje programa selekcije pastrmke u Srbiji je dobro dokumentovano postojanje interakcije genotip x okolina kod kalifornijske pastrmke, kao što su pokazala istraživanja (McKay et al., 1984; Hanke et al., 1989; Sylven et al., 1991; Winkelman and Peterson, 1994; Kettunen et al., 1999; Kause et al., 2003). Na kraju, ali ne i najmanje važna je i kontrola bolesti kod kalifornijske pastrmke i mogućnost stvaranja otpornih linija pastrmki na neke bolesti putem selektivnog uzgoja (Henrion, 2005). Jedno od rešenja za ovaj ozbiljan problem, pored boljeg sistema kontrole pastrmske ikre poreklom iz uvoza, je i stvaranje lokalnih selektovanih matičnih jata sa proverenim poreklom i povećenom otpornošću na bolesti.
Obzirom da za kalifornijsku pastrmku postoje pouzdani podaci o varijabilnosti i heritabilnosti proizvodnih osobina ovo pruža mogućnost efikasne selekcije, a samom tim i značajnog unapređenja proizvodnje uz smanjen ukupni mortalitet, putem odgovarajućeg programa selekcije u Srbiji
A comparative analysis of milling strategies of complex geometry surfaces
This paper analyses the influence of machining strategies and cutting parameters on the milling of aluminium complex geometry parts. In the first experimental phase, parts were machined with a combination of two roughing strategies and three finishing strategies, with recommended machining parameters. The machining time, machining surface roughness, and the surface geometric accuracy were measured. In the second phase, a new sample was machined with corrected cutting parameters using the best strategy adopted from the first phase. The results have shown that the selection of machining strategy and cutting parameters significantly affects the productivity, quality, and accuracy when machining complex geometry parts
The CAST Time Projection Chamber
One of the three X-ray detectors of the CAST experiment searching for solar
axions is a Time Projection Chamber (TPC) with a multi-wire proportional
counter (MWPC) as a readout structure. Its design has been optimized to provide
high sensitivity to the detection of the low intensity X-ray signal expected in
the CAST experiment. A low hardware threshold of 0.8 keV is safely set during
normal data taking periods, and the overall efficiency for the detection of
photons coming from conversion of solar axions is 62 %. Shielding has been
installed around the detector, lowering the background level to 4.10 x 10^-5
counts/cm^2/s/keV between 1 and 10 keV. During phase I of the CAST experiment
the TPC has provided robust and stable operation, thus contributing with a
competitive result to the overall CAST limit on axion-photon coupling and mass.Comment: 19 pages, 11 figures and images, submitted to New Journal of Physic
Prospects for the CERN Axion Solar Telescope Sensitivity to 14.4 keV Axions
The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) is searching for solar axions using the
9.0 T strong and 9.26 m long transverse magnetic field of a twin aperture LHC
test magnet, where axions could be converted into X-rays via reverse Primakoff
process. Here we explore the potential of CAST to search for 14.4 keV axions
that could be emitted from the Sun in M1 nuclear transition between the first,
thermally excited state, and the ground state of 57Fe nuclide. Calculations of
the expected signals, with respect to the axion-photon coupling, axion-nucleon
coupling and axion mass, are presented in comparison with the experimental
sensitivity.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figure. Submitted to Nucl. Instr. and Meth.
Search for solar axion emission from 7Li and D(p,gamma)3He nuclear decays with the CAST gamma-ray calorimeter
We present the results of a search for a high-energy axion emission signal
from 7Li (0.478 MeV) and D(p,gamma)3He (5.5 MeV) nuclear transitions using a
low-background gamma-ray calorimeter during Phase I of the CAST experiment.
These so-called "hadronic axions" could provide a solution to the long-standing
strong-CP problem and can be emitted from the solar core from nuclear M1
transitions. This is the first such search for high-energy pseudoscalar bosons
with couplings to nucleons conducted using a helioscope approach. No excess
signal above background was found.Comment: 20 pages, 8 figures, final version to be published in JCA
First results from the CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST)
Hypothetical axion-like particles with a two-photon interaction would be
produced in the Sun by the Primakoff process. In a laboratory magnetic field
(``axion helioscope'') they would be transformed into X-rays with energies of a
few keV. Using a decommissioned LHC test magnet, CAST has been running for
about 6 months during 2003. The first results from the analysis of these data
are presented here. No signal above background was observed, implying an upper
limit to the axion-photon coupling < 1.16 10^{-10} GeV^-1 at 95% CL for m_a
<~0.02 eV. This limit is comparable to the limit from stellar energy-loss
arguments and considerably more restrictive than any previous experiment in
this axion mass range.Comment: 4 pages, accepted by PRL. Final version after the referees comment
Search for low Energy solar Axions with CAST
We have started the development of a detector system, sensitive to single
photons in the eV energy range, to be suitably coupled to one of the CAST
magnet ports. This system should open to CAST a window on possible detection of
low energy Axion Like Particles emitted by the sun. Preliminary tests have
involved a cooled photomultiplier tube coupled to the CAST magnet via a
Galileian telescope and a switched 40 m long optical fiber. This system has
reached the limit background level of the detector alone in ideal conditions,
and two solar tracking runs have been performed with it at CAST. Such a
measurement has never been done before with an axion helioscope. We will
present results from these runs and briefly discuss future detector
developments.Comment: Paper submitted to the proceedings of the "4th Patras Workshop on
Axions, WIMPs and WISPs", DESY, Hamburg Site - Germany, 18-21 June 2008.

New solar axion search in CAST with He filling
The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) searches for conversion in
the 9 T magnetic field of a refurbished LHC test magnet that can be directed
toward the Sun. Two parallel magnet bores can be filled with helium of
adjustable pressure to match the X-ray refractive mass to the axion
search mass . After the vacuum phase (2003--2004), which is optimal for
eV, we used He in 2005--2007 to cover the mass range of
0.02--0.39 eV and He in 2009--2011 to scan from 0.39--1.17 eV. After
improving the detectors and shielding, we returned to He in 2012 to
investigate a narrow range around 0.2 eV ("candidate setting" of our
earlier search) and 0.39--0.42 eV, the upper axion mass range reachable with
He, to "cross the axion line" for the KSVZ model. We have improved the
limit on the axion-photon coupling to (95% C.L.), depending on the pressure settings. Since 2013, we
have returned to vacuum and aim for a significant increase in sensitivity.Comment: CAST Collaboration 6 pages 3 figure
