Abstract: A kind of sawtooth structure with reversed cutting function and its drill series are presented in this invention. This invention is suitable for drilling low-damage holes on carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP). The sawtooth structure is comprised of sawteeth and grooves located on the cutting edges of drill. And the sawtooth structure is helically arranged with a specific helix angle around the axis of the drill. It can be classified as the left-hand helix sawtooth structure and the right-hand helix sawtooth structure based on the helix angle value. The bottom edges of the left-hand helix sawtooth structure are the cutting edges, and the rake angles are positive; while the top edges of the right-hand helix sawtooth are the cutting edge with the positive rake angles. The sawtooth structure can be applied to various drilling tools, which proves to be universal. And it can effectively reduce delamination at both hole entrance and hole exit as well as burrs defects.

Abstract: This invention, a feedrate scheduling method for five-axis dual-spline curve interpolation, belongs to multi-axis NC (Numerical Control) machining filed, featured a feedrate scheduling method with constant speed at feedrate-sensitive regions under axial drive constraints for five-axis dual-spline interpolation. This method first discretizes the tool-tip spline with equal arc length, thus getting the relation between the axial motion and the toolpath by computing the first, second, and third order derivatives of the axial positions with respect to the tool-tip motion arc length. After that, determine the feedrate-sensitive regions with the constraints of axial drive limitations and the objective of balanced machining quality and efficiency. Finally, determine the acceleration/deceleration-start-point curve parameters by bi-directional scanning.

Each load balancing weight may be assigned based on a network speed supported by the associated NIC, and different load balancing weights are indicative of different network speeds among the multiple NICs in the team. The method may further comprise the host sending, via the selected one of the multiple NICs, the egress packets to the destination.

Abstract: A method of defining a virtual network across a plurality of physical hosts is provided. At least two hosts utilize network virtualization software provided by two different vendors. Each host hosts a set of data compute nodes (DCNs) for one or more tenants. The method, at an agent at a host, receives a command from a network controller, the command includes (i) an identification a resource on a tenant logical network and (ii) an action to perform on the identified resource. The method, at the agent, determines the network virtualization software utilized by the host. The method, at the agent, translates the received action into a set of configuration commands compatible with the network virtualization software utilized by the host. The method sends the configuration commands to a network configuration interface on the host to perform the action on the identified resource.

Abstract: An adjustable wrench comprises a handle. At least one end of the handle is provided with a straight claw (2) and an oblique claw (1), which form a wrench jaw by a certain angle. The straight claw is provided with an adjusting slider (4) capable of moving along the length direction of the straight claw and the adjusting slider comprises an oblique face (41) in action with a nut, and the oblique face is parallel to the inner surface (11) of the oblique claw forming the wrench jaw. The adjustable wrench retains advantages of a solid wrench which is precise in the opening size and not easy to slip, and solves the problem that the opening width of the existing solid wrench cannot be adjusted. Meanwhile, the adjustable wrench completely retains the advantage of the existing adjustable wrench which is continuously adjustable in the opening width, and solves the problems that since a shifting wheel and a rack are easy to abrade, slipping is easy to occur or nuts can be damaged.
