THE ENERGY ASPECT OF THE RECIPROCAL INTERACTIONS OF PAIRS OF TWO DIFFERENT VIBRATION MODES OF A CLAMPED ANNULAR PLATE

The standardized mutual active and reactive sound power of a clamped plate, representing the energy aspect of the reciprocal interactions of two different in vacuo modes, has been computed. It was assumed that the vibrations are axisymmetric, elastic and time harmonic, the plate's transverse deflection is small as compared with the plate's size, and that the vibration velocity is small as compared with the acoustic wavenumber generated. The Kirchhoff-Love theory of a perfectly elastic plate was used. The integral formulae for the mutual sound power were transformed into their Hankel representations which made possible their subsequent computation. A closed path integral was used to express the integral in its Hankel representation to compute the mutual active sound power. The asymptotic stationary phase method was used to compute the two magnitudes, i.e., the mutual active and reactive sound power. The results obtained are the asymptotic formulae valid for the acoustically fast waves. The oscillating as well as the non-oscillating terms have been identified in the formulae to make possible their further separate analysis. The availability of the asymptotic formulae makes possible some fast numerical computations of the mutual sound power. Moreover, the formulae presented herein, together with those for the individual modes known from the literature, make a complete basis for further computations of the total sound power of the plate's damped and forced vibrations in fluid.     

Über Verbindungen mit Urotropin-Struktur, 37. Mitt.: Eine neue Methode zur Herstellung von Hydroxy-ketonen und Diketonen sowie ihre Anwendung auf die Synthese des 2,4-Dioxa-adamantan-Ringsystems

Zusammenfassung Es wird eine neue Methode zur Herstellung von Hydroxyketonen und Diketonen beschrieben, die im ersten Schritt der Reaktionsfolge die Umsetzung von Hydroxycarbonsäureestern mit Phenylsulfonalkylmagnesiumbromid zu -Sulfonylketonen erfordert. Diese werden dann im zweiten Schritt mit Al-Amalgam zu den Hydroxyketonen oder den Halbketalen der Diketone entschwefelt. Mit Hilfe dieser Reaktionsfolge gelang auch, ausgehend von 3,5-Dihydroxy-phenylessigsäureester, die Synthese des bisher noch unbekannten Ringsystems des 2,4-Dioxa-adamantans.Herrn Prof. Dr. habil.Friedrich Asinger zum 60.

Catalyzed Addition of Aldehydes to Activated Double Bonds—A New Synthetic Approach

In the presence of cyanide ions as catalyst, aromatic and heterocyclic aldehydes can be smoothly added to α,β-unsaturated ketones, esters, and nitriles in aprotic solvents to form γ-diketones, 4-oxo carboxylic esters, and 4-oxo nitriles. Thiazolium salts in the presence of bases are also suitable catalysts; they permit not only addition of aromatic and heterocyclic aldehydes but also the addition of aliphatic aldehydes.
