問１．下記の SLS（selective laser sintering)の従来技術に関する文を和訳してください。英文の細かい表現にとらわれず、技術的課題が明確になる翻訳を心がけてください。
[0009] Additionally, consistent powder characteristics are important forensuring repeatable manufacture of objects. For example, metal powders
used in additive manufacturing are assumed to be nominally spherical, andhave a particle size distribution that is designed to facilitate good packing
behavior, such that the final product has good mechanical properties.
Manufacturers typically receive the base powder material from third-party
producers in different batches. Each batch of powder material from aparticular producer is assigned an identification number (e.g., batch number,lot number) for tracking and quality control checks. In conventional laser
sintering methods, the manufacturers typically assume when different
batches of powder from the same lot are used, that the powders are identical.
Working under this assumption, they apply the same laser power setting for
the SLS machine in sintering a particular powder material across different
batches. However, such assumption is not grounded in reality, as there areoften batch-to-batch variations in powder size, shape, melting points, glasstransitions points, and other characteristics for a given powder material.
This is especially true for semi-crystalline polymers such as PEKK thatexhibit multiple melting points. Large particles tend to require more laser
energy to fuse than small particles, so large variations in size can result incomplete fusion of small particles (in one batch) and incomplete fusion oflarge particles (in another batch).

[0010] Thus, there exists a need in the art for an improved selective laser
sintering method which utilizes lower laser power that is optimized for agiven batch of powder material in order to consistently build the same object
with greater tensile strength, as compared to the object being manufactured
with high laser power.
問 2．図面を参考に下記の実施の形態の抜粋を和訳してください。
[0038] All the elements which have just been described can be arranged intwo different functional configurations.
[0039] On the one hand, it is possible to realise a transportation and storage
configuration, illustrated in FIG. 1, in which the inflatable body 7 is deflated
and folded up inside the rigid tub 1 (this configuration can be seen in FIG. 3).
The tub 1 is in this case arranged in upside down position on the rigid panel
9 forming the bottom lid and is bolted thereon with the aid of fasteningmeans, preferably of the rapid-fastening type not shown in the figures. In
this position, the edge of the panel 9 matches the shape of the edge of the tub
1. An outboard motor 13 can be joined to the inner face 11 of the rigid panel 9,following folding or removal of its control handle 14, by means of straps 12
and/or by means of its own motor screws screwed onto an appropriate
projecting relief of the panel 9.
[0040] A closed box is therefore formed, which facilitates the storage of thecraft and the protection of the deflated tube and, more advantageously,
furthermore, is fit to be placed and fixed on the roof of an automobile 10, as
shown in FIG. 1. The shape of the shell 1, arranged with the prow 2 facing
frontward in the direction of travel of the automobile, is appropriate from theaerodynamic aspect. The general shape of the box thus formed is close to thatof a roof luggage box for an automobile and its use is similar.
[0041] On the other hand, it is also possible to realise a navigation
configuration, illustrated in FIG. 2, in which the rigid panel 9 is detachedand separate from the tub 1. The inflatable body 7 is inflated under pressurefor its shaping around the tub 1, which in this case constitutes a rigid hull,
the aggregate of the tub 1 and inflatable body 7 constituting a composite
shell.

CLAIM
1. An apparatus for providing a surface angularly adjustable withrespect to a reference surface (14), said apparatus comprising:a magnetizable mount (21) in a shape of a sphere having a selectedsurface region (25) thereon;
magnetic holding means disposed between the mount (21) and thereference surface (14) for magnetically adhering the mount (21) to thereference surface (14) with sufficient holding force to provide a stablenon-resonant structure while permitting the mount (21) to be manually
adjusted about three axes of rotation; andadjustment means for angularly positioning the mount (21) about
three axes with respect to the magnetic holding means, said adjustment
means including a plurality of openings (30 to 35) entering into the mount(21) from different angular locations on a surface of the sphere and arod-shaped member (45) adapted to be removably fitted into said openings(30 to 35) for manual adjustment over a wide range of angles about said
three axes.
