While solution structures of adenine tract (A-tract) oligomers have indicated a unique bend direction equivalent to negative global roll (commonly termed "minor-groove bending"), crystallographic data have not unambiguously characterized the bend direction; nevertheless, many features are shared by all A-tract crystal and solution structures (e.g. propeller twisting, narrow minor grooves, and l...

Abstract In metalworking, bending forming processes are used extensively for a wide range of applications referring to several industrial fields, such as oil&gas field, naval field or automotive field. cylinders and truncated cones process, three-point roll metal sheets represents concrete option, which mainly consists pyramid-type machines made two lower rolls top roll. Each can be designe...

The available fatigue theories have been examined using simple specimens subjected to bending or tension-compression loads. Therefore, the stress fields have been generally one or two dimensional. Anti-roll bar is a component belongs to the suspension system of the vehicles. In spite of having simple circular section, due to the having several curvatures, this component experiences a three-dime...

In this work a machine vision system for inspection (VSI) is presented whose capabilities are able to detect seaming defects in metal cans for fishing food. Conventional method for quality inspection of seaming for cans, and their main dimensional features, are firstly shown. Then, the structure and algorithms for VSI are proposed for this application. This VSI is currently mounted over a conve...

Roll forming process is used for manufacturing sheet metal parts by successive bending and creating the final shape with gradual deformation. In this article, deformation of a pre-punched sheet due to the roll forming process was studied. Two main defects in the roll forming process are ovality of holes and bow defect. The ovality of the hole is influenced by the process parameters including sh...
