Phortica (Phortica) xianfui Huang & Gong & Tsaur & Zhu & An & Chen 2019, sp. nov.
Phortica (Phortica) xianfui Gong & Chen, sp. nov. (Fig. 37) Diagnosis. This species is very similar to P. subradiata (Okada, 1977) in the shape of paramere, but can be distinguished from the latter by having the vertical process of gonopod radiated apically (Fig. 37C); two basal bridges of aedeagal median rod fused to each other (Fig. 37C). Description. Frons dark brown. Face brownish. Mesoscutum and pleura brownish yellow, with brown spots and pollinose pattern. Scutellum brownish yellow, with 1 pair of dark brown patches distolaterally. Male terminalia (Fig. 37): Epandrium pubescent anteroventrally, with ca. 14 setae on dorsal to posterolateral portion per side (Fig. 37A). Surstylus basally pubescent on outer surface, with ca. 6 wedge-like prensisetae on apical margin (Fig. 37B). Posterolateral lobe of hypandrium undeveloped and lacking pubescence (Fig. 37C). Paramere expanded and pubescent distally; apical and medial processes each with 1 tooth and 1 sensillum; basal process round apically (Fig. 37D). Vertical process of gonopod apically with 4 or 5 of projections per side (Fig. 37C). Aedeagal median rod submedially with 1 pair of small processes (pr in Fig. 37C) and 1 small projection (ps).

Identification of tool failure modes in drilling Udimet® 720 superalloy
The ACCENT Project (FP7- AAT- 2007- RTD-1) will allow the European Aero Engine manufacturers to improve their
competitiveness by applying adaptive control techniques to the manufacturing of their components. For the critical
rotating parts of aircraft engines, the surface integrity generated after machining is a key factor on the life cycle. In this context, one particular attention has to be carried on tool condition. The aim of this paper is to identify the main failure modes characterizing this particular Nickel base drilling. By experimental techniques, cartography of failure modes was realized. The results show that flank wear and notching are the main failure modes limiting the tool life. For some cutting conditions, the tool failure arrives after the first hole due to the important cutting forces. Some interesting associations are made between the spindle current/accelerometers/ thrust force and flank wear, tool breakage and notching
