    Various types of cutters (spherical, toroidal, etc.) are used in surface processing of parts of a transmission mechanism. The cost of a special profile tool is somewhat higher than that of such cutters. But the increase in the cost of the tool is compensated by a significant reduction in the time of processing parts. The present paper deals with a mathematical model of a profile cutter surface (as a surface of revolution) for processing parts of a cylindrical transmission gear with an eccentrically cycloidal gearing (EC-gearing). A computer program for determining radii of the cutter's circular cross sections for a given set of axial displacements was created

    Abelian Sandpile Model on the Husimi Lattice of Square Plaquettes

    Full text link
    An Abelian sandpile model is considered on the Husimi lattice of square plaquettes. Exact expressions for the distribution of height probabilities in the Self-Organized Critical state are derived. The two-point correlation function for the sites deep inside the Husimi lattice is calculated exactly.Comment: 12 pages, LaTeX, source files and some additional information available at http://thsun1.jinr.dubna.su/~shcher

    Critical Dynamics of Self-Organizing Eulerian Walkers

    Full text link
    The model of self-organizing Eulerian walkers is numerically investigated on the square lattice. The critical exponents for the distribution of a number of steps (τl\tau_l) and visited sites (τs\tau_s) characterizing the process of transformation from one recurrent configuration to another are calculated using the finite-size scaling analysis. Two different kinds of dynamical rules are considered. The results of simulations show that both the versions of the model belong to the same class of universality with the critical exponents τl=τs=1.75±0.1\tau_l=\tau_s=1.75\pm 0.1.Comment: 3 pages, 4 Postscript figures, RevTeX, additional information available at http://thsun1.jinr.dubna.su/~shche

    The absorption spectrum of monodeuterated water, HDO has been investigated between 11200 and 12400 cm-1. The spectrum has been recorded using IFS-125M interferometer with spectral resolution of 0.05 cm-1. For measurements White’s-type cell were used. The bright light emitting diode (LED) EDEI-1LS3-R was applied as a source of radiation. Signal to noise ratio was about 104. The spectral line parameters - line positions, intensities and half-widths were obtained by least square fitting. As a result of the spectrum analysis the line list containing more than 1500 lines was created. The spectral line parameters have been compared with the previous measured and calculated data. © (2015) COPYRIGHT Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).

    LED-based Fourier transform spectroscopy of H216O in the range 15500-16000 cm-1

    The vibrational-rotational absorption spectrum of water vapor within the range 15500–16000 cm−1 is measured and analyzed. The spectrum is recoded with an IFS-125M Fourier transform spectrometer with a resolution of 0.03 cm−1, at pressure of 25 mbar, at a temperature of 24°C, and at an optical path length of 34.8 m. The measurements are performed using a multipass White cell with a base length of 60 cm. A light-emitting diode is used as a radiation source. The signal-to-noise ratio is about 104, which makes it possible to measure the parameters of lines with intensities on the order of 10−27 cm/molecule. The centers, intensities, and half-widths of lines are determined by fitting the Voigt profile parameters to measured data set by the least squares method. A list of more than 430 lines is formed based on the analysis of the spectrum. The obtained results are compared with calculated and experimental data of other authors

    Dissecting X-ray-emitting Gas around the Center of our Galaxy

    Most supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are accreting at very low levels and are difficult to distinguish from the galaxy centers where they reside. Our own Galaxy's SMBH provides a uniquely instructive exception, and we present a close-up view of its quiescent X-ray emission based on 3 mega-second of Chandra observations. Although the X-ray emission is elongated and aligns well with a surrounding disk of massive stars, we can rule out a concentration of low-mass coronally active stars as the origin of the emission based on the lack of predicted Fe Kalpha emission. The extremely weak H-like Fe Kalpha line further suggests the presence of an outflow from the accretion flow onto the SMBH. These results provide important constraints for models of the prevalent radiatively inefficient accretion state.Comment: 18 pages, 5 PDF figures, pdflatex format; Final version, published in Scienc
