Mechanical spectroscopy is used to probe the structure of lyotropic liquid crystalline polymers during flow and after the
cessation of flow. The oscillatory flow is either parallel or perpendicular to the steady-state flow. The resulting moduli
provide information about the time- and shear-dependent microstructure, including anisotropy. Two different concentrations
of poly(benzylglutamate) (PBG) in m-cresol and a concentrated hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC) solution, also in m-cresol, are investigated. In all cases, the orthogonal superposition moduli evolve differently from the parallel ones. The
former are less sensitive to the flow-induced changes in structure than the latter ones. Together with the lack of sensitivity
of the superposition moduli to texture refinement during flow, this suggests a strong relation between director orientation
and superposition moduli. After the cessation of flow the parallel moduli decrease for the PBG solutions, whereas the opposite
is observed in the HPC solutions. A comparison with the orthogonal moduli provides a direct measure of anisotropy. At rest,
the PBG solutions tend toward a higher degree of anisotropy while the HPC solutions become more isotropic. In the latter systems,
all moduli are much larger, reflecting a larger contribution from the texture.

The mesoscopic models for the rheological properties of liquid crystalline polymers proposed by Larson and Doi in 1991 and
Kawaguchi and Denn in 1999 are based on phenomenological expressions that describe the evolution of the defect density and
the contribution of the “texture” to the stress. In the present work, we attempt to assess some of these assumptions by monitoring
how the energy stored in the texture of liquid crystalline materials evolves during shear flows. For that purpose, strain
recovery is measured as a function of the applied strain for flow reversal and intermittent flow. Solutions of poly-benzylglutamate
in m-cresol, hydroxypropylcellulose in water and a nematic surfactant solution are used as model systems. Although the behaviour
is described qualitatively by the model, discrepancies between the predictions and the experiments are observed, especially
when the shear history includes rest periods.

Nonlinear rheology was examined for concentrated suspensions of spherical silica particles (with radius of 40 nm) in viscous
media, 2.27/1 (wt/wt) ethylene glycol/glycerol mixture and pure ethylene glycol. The particles were randomly and isotropically
dispersed in the media in the quiescent state, and their effective volume fraction φeff ranged from 0.36 to 0.59. For small strains, the particles exhibited linear relaxation of the Brownian stress σB due to their diffusion. For large step strains γ, the nonlinear relaxation modulus G(t,γ) exhibited strong damping and obeyed the time-strain separability. This damping was related to γ-insensitivity of strain-induced
anisotropy in the particle distribution that resulted in decreases of σB/γ. The damping became stronger for larger φeff. This φeff dependence was related to a hard-core volume effect, i.e., strain-induced collision of the particles that is enhanced for
larger φeff. Under steady/transient shear flow, the particles exhibited thinning and thickening at low and high γ˙, respectively. The thinning behavior was well described by a BKZ constitutive equation using the G(t,γ) data and attributable to decreases of a Brownian contribution, σB/γ˙. The thickening behavior, not described by this equation, was related to dynamic clustering of the particles and corresponding
enhancement of the hydrodynamic stress at high γ˙. In this thickening regime, the viscosity growth η+ after start-up of flow was scaled with a strain γ˙t. Specifically, critical strains γd and γs for the onset of thickening and achievement of the steadily thickened state were independent of γ˙ but decreased with increasing φeff. This φeff dependence was again related to the hard-core volume effect, flow-induced collision of the particles enhanced for larger
φeff.

We investigate the effect of hydrophobic aggregation in alkali-swellable acrylic thickener solutions on shear and extensional
flow properties at technically relevant polymer concentrations using the commercial thickener Sterocoll FD as model system.
Apparent molecular weight of aggregates in water is M
w
≈ 108 g/mol and decreases by more than an order of magnitude in ethanol. Zero shear viscosity η
0 is low and shear thinning is weak compared to the high molecular weight of the aggregates. Linear viscoelastic relaxation
is described by the Zimm theory up to frequencies of 104 rad/s, demonstrating that no entanglements are present in these solutions. This is further supported by the concentration
dependence of η
0 and is attributed to strong association within the aggregates. Extensional flow behavior is characterized using the capillary
break-up extensional rheometry technique including high-speed imaging. Solutions with ϕ ≥ 1% undergo uniform deformation and show pronounced strain hardening up to large Hencky strains. Elongational relaxation
times are more than one order of magnitude lower than the longest shear relaxation times, suggesting that aggregates cannot
withstand strong flows and do not contribute to the elongational viscosity.

The effect of uniform suction on the steady two-dimensional laminar forced flow of a viscous incompressible fluid of temperature
dependent viscosity past a wedge with uniform surface heat flux is considered. The governing equations for the flow are obtained
by using suitable transformations and are solved by using an implicit finite difference method. Perturbation solutions are
also obtained near the leading edge and in the downstream regime. The results are obtained in terms of the local skin friction
coefficient and the rate of heat transfer for various values of the pertinent parameters, such as the Prandtl number, Pr,
the velocity gradient parameter, m, the local suction parameter, ξ, and the viscosity variation parameter, ɛ. Perturbation solutions are compared with the finite
difference solutions and are found to be in excellent agreement. The effect of ξ, m and ɛ on the dimensionless velocity profiles and viscosity distribution are also presented graphically for Pr = 0.7 and 7.0,
which are the appropriate values for gases and water respectively.

Creep experiments with a solution of polystyrene (M
w = 2.6 MDa, 16 vol.%, 25 °C) in diethyl phthalate are reported for stresses between 100 and 2,500 Pa (≈ 3G
N
0/4). The aim was to look for a flow transition as reported for strongly entangled poly(isobutylene) solutions. The experiments
with the polystyrene solution were repeated for cone angles of 2, 4, and 6° (radius 15 mm) and showed no dependence on cone
angle. The Cox–Merz rule was not fulfilled for stresses beyond about 800 Pa. The tangential observation with a CCD camera
showed that the edge took a concave shape because of the second normal stress difference. Beyond 1,000 Pa, the concave edge
develops into a crevice, thus substantially reducing the effective cross-section. This leads to runaway in a constant torque
experiment. At p
21 = 800 Pa, head-on particle tracking confirms that the originally linear velocity profile takes a gooseneck shape, thus revealing
shear banding. When the creep stress is stepped down to 100 Pa, this velocity profile evolves back to a linear one. The conclusion
from this work is that even if nonlinear creep experiments are reproducible and a steady state is reached, this does not mean
that the flow field is homogeneous.

With the drive towards minimally invasive procedures, the medical industry is looking towards ‘avant-garde’ materials, with
50NiTi currently being the prime choice for many critical components/applications. This paper examines a new Ni-rich NiTi
alloy that exhibits superelasticity (SE) and shape memory (SM) properties. Superelastic (SE) properties of 55NiTi* [all compositions
are quoted in atomic% throughout the paper. The reader should note the following conversions: 50NiTi (at.%)≈55NiTi (wt.%) and 55NiTi (at.%)≈60NiTi (wt.%)] are studied here as a function of heat-treatment between 400–800°C, and compared with the corresponding response of 50NiTi*,
with an aim to develop and optimize thermal treatment procedures to maximize recoverable elastic strains. While optimal tuning
of the SE properties in 50NiTi necessitates cold working in conjunction with specific heat treatment/aging, 55NiTi does not
require cold work to achieve its optimal SE behavior. Moreover, it can be heat treated to produce strong, stable SE and SM
response from the same ingot, with transformation temperatures being a strong function of heat treatment. The main difference
between the two alloys is that Ni–Ti alloys with Ni content greater than 50.6 at.% are sensitive to heat treatment; aging
in these materials leads to precipitation of several metastable phases. The initial work focuses on SE properties relevant
to biomedical use, such as: plateau stress, recoverable strains and strength, as a function of heat treatment and microstructure.

The transient recoverable deformation ratio after melt elongation at various elongational rates and maximum elongations was
investigated for pure polystyrene and for a 85 wt.% polystyrene/15 wt.% linear low density polyethylene (PS/LLDPE 85:15) blend
at a temperature of 170 oC. The ratio p of the zero shear rate viscosity of LLDPE to that of PS is p = 0.059 ≈ 1:17. Retraction of the elongated LLDPE droplets back to spheres and end-pinching is observed during recovery.
A simple additive rule is applied in order to extract the contribution of the recovery of the elongated droplets from the
total recovery of the blend. In that way, the recoverable portion of the PS/LLDPE blend induced by the interfacial tension
is determined and compared with the results of a theory based on an effective medium approximation. The effective medium approximation
reproduces well the time scale of the experimental data. In addition, the trends that the recoverable deformation increases
with elongational rate and maximum elongation are captured by the theoretical approach. 相似文献

Samples of commercial tomato paste, low fat mayonnaise and mustard about 6–8 mm thick were squeezed to 0.8 mm at various
speeds between 5 mm min−1 and 25 mm min−1 between Teflon-coated parallel plates 127 mm in diameter using an Instron UTM Model 5542. All the log force vs log height
relationships had a clearly identified linear region. This indicated that a dominant squeezing flow regime was achieved at
about 3 mm height, and that the machine has the proper stiffness to perform the tests. The stress level at a pre-selected
height in this region is a measure of consistency, sensitive enough to distinguish between products of different brands. The
residual stress after relaxation for about 2 min was on order of 10–50% of the initial stress, an indication that all three
foods have a considerable structural integrity. In all three products there was a considerable discrepancy between the observed
rate effects and predictions based on a pseudoplastic (power law) model. It could be described by the empirical relation (Fv1 − FR)/(Fv2 − FR)=(V1/V2)m where Fv1 and Fv2 are the forces at the given displacement reached at speeds v1 and v2 respectively, FR is the residual force after relaxation (found to be practically rate independent), and m is a constant of the order of 0.15–0.33,
independent of the compression velocities ratio but characteristic of the food and brand. The calculated elongational viscosity
was not a unique function of biaxial strain rate. To a certain extent, this was probably due to imperfect lubrication. But
it was also a manifestation of these products considerable structural integrity which cannot be accounted for by models developed
for ideal liquids.

Understanding the radiation embrittlement of reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steels is required to be able to operate safely
a nuclear power plant or to extend its lifetime. The mechanical properties degradation is partly due to the clustering of
solute under irradiation. To gain knowledge about the clustering process, a Fe−1.1 Mn−0.7 Ni (at.%) alloy was irradiated in
a test reactor at two fluxes of 0.15 and 9 ×1017 n
E > 1MeV
.m − 2.s − 1 and at increasing doses from 0.18 to 1.3 ×1024 n
E > 1MeV
.m − 2 at 300°C. Atom probe tomography (APT) experiments revealed that the irradiation promotes the formation in the α iron matrix of Mn/Mn and/or Ni/Ni pair correlations at low dose and Mn–Ni enriched clusters at high dose. These clusters
dissolve partially after a thermal treatment at 400°C. Based on a comparison with thermodynamic calculations, we show that
the solute clustering under irradiation can just result from an induced mechanism. 相似文献

We report on a rheooptical investigation of hairy-rod poly(p-phenylene) solutions at different concentrations and temperatures. These polymers have a reasonably high persistence length
(about 28 nm) and behave as worm-like chains in dilute solutions, whereas they form nearly spherical fractal aggregates with
internal anisotropy at higher concentrations. By exposing these systems to time-dependent simple shear and following the evolution
of birefringence in start-up and its subsequent relaxation upon the cessation of shear, we find a substantial broadening of
the cluster size distribution, resulting from flow-induced cluster deformation and break-up. In contrast to the very dilute
solutions, where polymers align in the flow direction, the deformed clusters main axes are aligned in the vorticity direction,
presumably due to their strong steric local pretransitional type of ordering, with the constituent polymers following the
velocity vector. At the highest concentration, which corresponds to a weak gel, shear is shown to break-up the gel and the
steady-state response of a broad-size aggregate suspension is eventually recovered.

Dielectric relaxation behavior was examined for 4-4′-n-pentyl-cyanobiphenyl (5CB) and 4-4′-n-heptyl-cyanobiphenyl (7CB) under flow. In quiescent states at all temperatures examined, both 5CB and 7CB exhibited dispersions
in their complex dielectric constant ε*(ω) at characteristic frequencies ω
c
above 106 rad s–1. This dispersion reflected orientational fluctuation of individual 5CB and 7CB molecules having large dipoles parallel to
their principal axis (in the direction of C≡N bond). In the isotropic state at high temperatures, these molecules exhibited no detectable changes of ε*(ω) under flow at
shear rates . In contrast, in the nematic state at lower temperatures the terminal relaxation intensity of ε*(ω) as well as the static
dielectric constant ε′(0) decreased under flow at . This rheo-dielectric change was discussed in relation to the flow effects on the nematic texture (director distribution)
and anisotropy in motion of individual molecules with respect to the director.

A class of steady similarity solutions of the equations for viscous vortex cores which correspond to external inviscid similarity
solutions with a power-law variation of the circumferential velocityv-r
−m near the rotation axis is considered. It is found that if the Bernoulli function in external flow is constant, then these
solutions will exist only on a certain range of the indexm of the exponential. For eachm on this range there are two solutions.

Linear viscoelastic behavior was investigated for aqueous solutions of perfluorooctyl sulfonate (C8F17SO−
3; abbreviated as FOS) micelles having a mixture of tetraethylammonium (N+(C2H5)4; TEA) and lithium (Li+) ions as the counter-ions. The solutions had the same FOS concentration (0.1 mol l−1) and various Li+ fractions in the counter-ions, φLi = 0−0.6, and the FOS micelles in these solutions formed threads which further organized into dendritic networks. At T ≤ 15 °C,
the terminal relaxation time τ and the viscosity η, governed by thermal scission of the networks, increased with increasing
φLi up to 0.55. A further increase of φLi resulted in decreases of τ and η and in broadening of the relaxation mode distribution. These rheological changes are discussed
in relation to the role of TEA ions in thermal scission: Previous NMR studies revealed that only a fraction of TEA ions were
tightly bound to the FOS micellar surfaces and these bound ions stabilized the thread/network structures. The concentration
of non-bound TEA ions, CTEA
*, decreased and finally vanished on increasing φLi up to φLi
* ≅ 0.6, and the concentration of the bound TEA ions significantly decreased on a further increase of φLi. The non-bound TEA ions appeared to catalyze the thermal scission of the FOS threads, and the observed increases of τ and
η for φLi < 0.55 were attributed to the decrease of CTEA
*. On the other hand, the decreases of τ and η as well as the broadening of the mode distribution, found for φLi > 0.55 (where CTEA
* ≅ 0), were related to destabilization of the FOS threads/networks due to a shortage of the bound TEA ions and to the existence
of concentrated Li+ ions. Viscoelastic data of pure FOSTEA and FOSTEA/FOSLi/TEACl solutions lent support to these arguments for the role of TEA
ions in the relaxation of FOSTEA/FOSLi solutions.

A new type of flow visualization method utilizing a smoke-wire, a high-speed camera with high framing rates and a laser light
sheet was employed to delineate the unsteady processes of large-scale vortices in the separated shear layer about a blunt-faced
flat plate at Re
H
= 560. The sequential images showed that the unsteady behavior of large-scale vortices in the separated shear layer varies
as the shedding phases of large-scale vortices alter. Particularly, at a certain phase, a vortex-merging process between the
two neighboring large-scale vortices took place.

Natural convection, radiation and conduction heat transfer in passive solar massive wall systems with fins attached to the
heated surface and with glazing is experimentally studied. The system was 0.78 m high, 0.40 m wide and 0.10 m thick concrete
wall with a glazing placed at 0.0265 m from the surface. It had 0.025 m long, 0.004 m thick horizontal fins made as an integral
part of the massive wall and placed at 0.01 m intervals. A heat source was used to impose a constant heat flux which could
be varied from about 200–800 W/m2. Temperatures at various points and heat flux by convection at the back were measured. Using various assumptions, the systems
was also analyzed theoretically. The results show that about 40% of the heat flux imposed on the finned surface goes through
the system and is dissipated at the back.

Linear viscoelastic properties of SiO2/(AP/EP) suspension with various SiO2 volume fractions (ϕ) in a blend of acrylic polymer (AP) and epoxy (EP) were investigated at various temperatures (T). The AP/EP contained 70 vol.% of EP. The SiO2 particles were treated with epoxy silane coupling agent. The effects of the SiO2 particles are more pronounced in the terminal zone: a transition from viscoelastic liquid (ϕ ≤ 30 vol.%) to viscoelastic solid (ϕ ≥ 40 vol.%) was observed which can be interpreted as a critical gelation occurring at a critical particle content and critical
gel temperature. The SiO2/(AP/EP) systems exhibited a critical gel behavior at ϕ ≅ 35 vol.% and T ≅ 100°C characterized with a power–law relationship between the storage and loss moduli (G

Nonlinear rheological features were investigated for an aqueous solution of tetraethylammonium perfluorooctyl sulfonate (C8F17SO3
–N+(C2H5)4; abbreviated as FOSTEA). In the solution (c=0.045 mol/l; 28.3 g/l), spherical micelles of FOSTEA were connected with each other to form threads of pearl-necklace shape.
These threads were further organized into a transient network to exhibit linear relaxation characteristic of living polymers,
single-mode terminal relaxation widely separated from faster relaxation processes. Nonlinear relaxation experiments against
large step-strains γ(≤8) revealed that the terminal relaxation mode had a γ-insensitive relaxation time but its relaxation
intensity exhibited significant damping (much stronger than that for entangled polymers). In contrast, the relaxation time
and intensity for the fast relaxation modes first increased and then decreased with increasing γ. Under shear flow, the FOSTEA
threads exhibited strong thinning of the viscosity. These nonlinear features of the FOSTEA threads were compared with those
of other threadlike micelles, analyzed on the basis of an empirically introduced constitutive equation, and discussed in relation
to strain/low-induced scission of the living threads.
