Abstract:
In the paper,the composition and equipment for on-site repair of damaged tubes by circular Nd:YAG laser deep penetration welding of inner sleeves are introduced.The inner sleeve is designed to be concave to reduce their axial constraints so that the residual stress of the welded part can be reduced and the tendency of stress corrosion can be decreased.Laser light is transmitted into the inner sleeve through an optical fiber,then reflected by a rotating mirror onto the inner wall;finally a circular weld of deep penetration is produced.The melted metal connects the inner sleeve with the outer tube,and prevents liquid seeping to the damaged part of the tube.Experimental results indicate that the grain growth of heat affected zone of parent metal caused by laser welding is small,the connection width is influenced by pulse power and that the tensile shear strength is influenced by pulse power and that the tensile shear strength is influenced by connection width.The tensile shear strength of the welded joint is about 62% of the tensile strength of Inconel 600 tube.

Abstract:
In the paper,the bending behavior of low carbon steel sheets is studied after being irradiated by an axial CO2 laser beam.The results show that the final bending angle of the sheets in a multiple-irradiation laser bending process is related to many process parameters,especially laser power,beam diameter,path feed rate,number of irradiation and sheet thickness.Through qualitative analysis of the experimental results,the conclusion obtained may provide basis for theoretical investigation and possible industrial application of laser bending process in the future.

Abstract:
Monte Carlo method is the only effective solution in the study of light distribution in biological tissues irradiated by a complex surface source. However,direct Monte Carlo simulation demands large computational capacity because of its low rate of convergence.In this paper,the concept of impulse response function in biological tissues is introduced,thus light distribution in certain depth of the biological tissue can simply be obtained by calculating the convolation of incident source function and the impulse response function. On the basis of computer simulation,a criterion is proposed to evaluate the results of Monte Carlo simulation. By means of the criterion,the influence of impulse response function and dispersed quantity of the light source is analysed comprehensively,which shows that the calculating efficiency is greatly improved by the introduction of impulse response function in Monte Carlo simulation of light distribution in biological tissues.

Abstract:
The origins of various holographic noises and methods for restricting noises are discussed in the paper.While making hologram,the contrast of interference fringes is supposed to be increased in order to increase the diffraction.In order to obtain optimum diffraction efficiency and whole result,the ration of reference light and object light is chosen different with objects.In consideration of external environment,the exposure time should not be too long.In a certain condition,there is an optimum exposure time.Under the observation of electronic micrograph,it is shown that the information of interference fringes will be destroyed if the resolution of the recording materials is not high enough.Finally,some related problems are discussed.

Abstract:
Investigation has been carried out into the laser cladding of several Co-base hard alloy.It shows that the flowability of the molten bath improves and the emerging of gas holes in cladding coating can be eliminated when Al material with low melting point is added and that the wettability of TiC obviously improves and the claddability of hard alloy coating increases when Ni material is added.The hardness of WC-Co cladding coating can reach up to HV0.2 1100.Adding TiC to coating obviously enhances the hardness of cladding coating.The hardness values range from HV0.2 1200 to HV0.2 1300.

Abstract:
A new technique of light-section method is proposed to measure 3D profile.A closed light strip in a certain section of foot is formed by laser sheet illumination. Its image can be obtained by 3 CCD cameras, then the real world coordinate of the section of the foot can be worked out through transformation between the coordinate of the section plane and the camera coordinate. Finally,the coordinate of the 3D foot profile can be obtained through measurement along the direction vertical to the light section plane.
