Evaluation of Surface Replication of Injection Molded Products Using a Diffraction Method
Abstract: ABSTRACT An evaluation method of surface replication for molded parts, which utilizes optical diffraction phenomena, is proposed. In general, the intensity of the diffracted light increases as the replication ratio becomes large, which leads to the increase in directly transmitted light. As a result, the surface in highly replicated region appears to be darker compared with the other region. An inversely proportional relationship between the 0th-order diffraction efficiency and the …

Effect of the Position of Geotextile on the Performance Parameters of the Flexible Pavement
Abstract: The major deterioration of the flexible pavement is due to the combined effect of fatigue cracking caused by excessive horizontal strain at the bottom of the bituminous layer and rutting deformation caused by excessive vertical strain at the top of subgrade layer. For designing the flexible pavement, it is necessary to determine the minimum thickness of the road crust, required to withstand the expected fatigue life and rutting life. The …
