Paring is useful for both diagnosis and treatment of plantar warts. Paring techniques generally involve scalpel blades, abrasive tools, or curettes. However, these tools do not permit the use of an "awl-like" carving technique of the wart afforded by using a punch biopsy tool. We have found this technique to be associated with greater precision and safety, as well as potentially increased effic...

It may be true that some commercially available blast cleaning abrasives will reveal the presence of soluble chlorides or sulfate salts. Such abrasive contamination may originate from various sources. One potential source could be the raw material process water containing chloride or sulfate salts in solution. Contamination may also occur during the transportation of the abrasive along the seac...

Abrasive machining in general and grinding in particular are processes, which increase their importance with high demands on accuracy of surface finish. The chip thickness is an evaluating variable to describe the quality of ground surface as well as the performance of the overall grinding system. A significant characteristic that distinguishes ceramics from metals is their low fracture toughne...

Metal abrasive particle content in lubricating oil is an important index to judge the degree of deterioration of lubricating oil. Established a spiral electrode capacitance sensor by the finite element software ANSYS, the simulation result shows that the sensor is sensitive to the content of metal abrasive particle in lubricating oil, not affect by the metal abrasive particle itself. According ...

Abrasive machining is a widely employed finishing process for different materials such as metals, ceramics, glass, rocks, etc to achieve close tolerances and good dimensional accuracy and surface integrity. High efficiency abrasive machining is one of the important techniques of advanced manufacture. Combined with raw and finishing machining, it can attain high material removal rate like turnin...

metal matrix composites have been widely used in industries, especially aerospace industries, due to their excellent engineering properties. however, it is difficult to machine them because of the hardness and abrasive nature of reinforcement elements like silicon carbide particles (sicp).in the present study, an attempt has been made to investigate the influence of spindle speed (n), feed rate...
