Summary: The paper uses PCGrate software to establish the machining error, surface defect, and surface roughness models for convex spherical blazed grating. The impact of these factors on the diffraction efficiency of the grating is studied. The results show that the blazed angle has the largest impact on the diffraction efficiency, while the grating apex angle has the smallest impact. The influence of other factors such as base curvature radius error, grating period error, grating ridge and valley passivation radius, Poisson burr height, and blaze surface roughness can be ignored.

Summary: Ultrasonic vibration assisted friction stir processing is a technique that improves the surface properties of ductile materials like aluminium. This study focuses on enhancing the mechanical properties of the AA7075-T651 surface composite by adding nano B4C particles under optimum working conditions. Through experiments conducted with and without ultrasonic vibrations at different levels of tool rotation speed, tool processing speed and volume percentage of nano B4C particles, the ultimate tensile strength, impact strength, yield strength, percentage of elongation and hardness of the composite are measured. The Jaya algorithm is used to determine the best conditions, which include a tool rotation speed of 1112 r/min, a tool traverse speed of 43.96 mm/min, and a volume percentage of 4.02% for B4C nano particles. Microstructure analysis shows that the addition of ultrasonic vibrations results in a fine grain structure and uniform distribution of reinforcement, leading to improved mechanical properties in the AA7075 alloy.

Summary: In some algorithms, Euclidean distance is used to calculate the crowded distance between subproblems. However, this method leads to an undesirable distribution of congestion degree. To address this issue, an improved multi-objective evolutionary algorithm called MOEA/D-ROE is proposed. It divides subproblems with different congestion levels into different areas and adjusts the weights regularly to redistribute them more evenly and obtain more uniform solutions.

Summary: The present research investigates the mechanical properties, liquid absorption, and solubility of three different orthodontic cements. BracePaste exhibits the best compressive and flexural strength, while Transbond performs best in terms of diametral tensile strength. Fuji Ortho shows the lowest values. BracePaste also demonstrates the highest resistance to liquids. SEM and AFM imaging confirm the structural differences between the cements and their susceptibility to liquid penetration. The findings suggest that BracePaste is suitable for long-term orthodontic treatment for patients who regularly consume acidic beverages.
