Abstract: A method for laser shock peening an article, such as a gas turbine engine airfoil, with varying thickness (T) by varying a surface fluence (f) of a laser beam (2) over a laser shock peening surface (54) as a function (F) of the thickness (T) beneath a laser shock peened spot (58) formed by the beam on the surface (54). The fluence (f) may be equal to the thickness (T) multiplied by a volumetric fluence factor (VF), the volumetric fluence factor (VF) being held constant over the laser shock peening surface (54). The volumetric fluence factor (VF) may be in a range of about 1200 J/cm 3  to 1800 J/cm 3  and more particularly about 1500 J/cm 3 . The method may include varying energy in the laser beam (2) using a computer program controlling firing of the laser beam (2). A device such as an optical attenuator external to a laser performing firing may be used to vary the energy.

Abstract: The invention prevents a crack from being generated in a seal lip (13) by reducing a mold releasing resistance generated by a holder portion (16) when releasing the mold after molding, while securing a falling preventing function of a garter spring (15) by the holder portion (16) formed in the seal lip (13). A plurality of holder portions (16) pressing the garter spring (15) are formed at a predetermined interval in a circumferential direction in an outer peripheral surface of the seal lip (13) so as to be positioned in a leading end side than a groove (13b) to which the garter spring (15) is fitted and attached, and are formed such that a width w o  in the circumferential direction in an outer diameter side in each of the holder portions (16) becomes equal to or less than a width w i  in the circumferential direction in an inner diameter side. In this way, the holder portion (16) can easily undergo bending deformation, and each of the holder portions (16) does not come to a biting state with an inner surface of the metal mold when molding the oil seal (1). Since each of the holder portions (16) is easily released from the inner surface of the metal mold while undergoing bending deformation, in a mold releasing process after molding, a mold releasing resistance is significantly reduced.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for high quality soft shadows for area lights in cinematic lighting for use in computer graphics, such as computer enabled animation. The method is an extension of traditional shadow maps, so it has the advantage of image based shadow methods; the complexity of the present method is independent of geometric complexity. It uses multilayer translucent shadow maps, which can be used to produce high quality soft shadows for scenes with extremely complex geometry, fur, and volume objects. Instead of the traditional sampling and filtering of shadow maps, the present method computes the shadow factor by ray tracing the multilayer translucent shadow map. The result is soft edged shadows of quality similar to that achieved by conventional stochastic ray tracing, but at much lower computational cost.
