This paper presents an experimental method for measuring the attenuation and the velocity of longitudinal ultrasonic waves
propagating through flat epoxy polymer samples. The study takes place in the first phase of epoxy polymer's polymerization,
where these materials pass slowly from liquid state to the solid state. For this purpose an experimental setup was introduced,
suitable for the accurate evaluation of the acoustic properties Δα andc

and Δα during the first phase of epoxy polymers curing, the three characteristic states: liquid, semi-solid and solid, are
clearly determined. It is also observed that plasticizer reduces the testability and the semi-solid state shows greater attenuation

We construct local minimizers of the Gross–Pitaevskii energy, introduced to model Bose–Einstein condensates (BEC) in the Thomas–Fermi
regime which are subject to a uniform rotation. Our sample domain is taken to be a solid torus of revolution in with starshaped cross-section. We show that for angular speeds ωε = O(|ln ε|) there exist local minimizers of the energy which exhibit vortices, for small enough values of the parameter ε. These vortices concentrate at one or several planar arcs (represented by integer multiplicity rectifiable currents) which
minimize a line energy, obtained as a Γ-limit of the Gross–Pitaevskii functional. The location of these limiting vortex lines
can be described under certain geometrical hypotheses on the cross-sections of the torus. 相似文献

Rheo-dielectric behavior was examined for 4−4′−n-octyl-cyanobiphenyl (8CB) having large dipoles parallel to its principal axis (in the direction of the C≡N bond). In the
quiescent state at all temperatures (T) examined, orientational fluctuation of the 8CB molecules was observed as dielectric dispersions at characteristic frequencies
ωc>106 s−1. In the isotropic state at high T, no detectable changes of the complex dielectric constant ɛ*(ω) were found under slow flow at shear rates ˙γ≫ωc. In the nematic state at intermediate T, the terminal relaxation intensity of ɛ*(ω) was decreased under such slow flow. In the smectic state at lower T, the flow effect became much less significant. These results were related to the flow-induced changes of the liquid crystalline
textures in the nematic and smectic states, and the differences of the rheo-dielectric behavior in these states are discussed
in relation to a difference of the symmetry of molecular arrangements in the nematic and smectic textures.

The oblique impact between a golf ball and a rigid steel target was studied using a high-speed video camera. Video images
recorded before and after the impact were used to determine the inbound velocity v
i, rebound velocity v
r, inbound angle θi, rebound angle θr, and the coefficient of restitution e. The results showed that θr and e decreased as v
i increased. The maximum compression ratio ηc, contact time t
c, average angular velocity
, and tangential velocity
, along the target were determined from images obtained during the impact. The images demonstrated that ηc increased with v
i while t
c decreased. In addition,
and
increased almost linearly as v
i increased. A rigid body model was used to estimate the final angular velocity ω* and tangential velocity νt* at the end of the impact; these results were then compared with experimental data. 相似文献

The search for traveling wave solutions of a semilinear diffusion partial differential equation can be reduced to the search
for heteroclinic solutions of the ordinary differential equation ü − cu̇ + f(u) = 0, where c is a positive constant and f is a nonlinear function. A heteroclinic orbit is a solution u(t) such that u(t) → γ
1 as t → −∞ and u(t) → γ
2 as t → ∞ where γ
1, γ
2 are zeros of f. We study the existence of heteroclinic orbits under various assumptions on the nonlinear function f and their bifurcations as c is varied. Our arguments are geometric in nature and so we make only minimal smoothness assumptions. We only assume that
f is continuous and that the equation has a unique solution to the initial value problem. Under these weaker smoothness conditions
we reprove the classical result that for large c there is a unique positive heteroclinic orbit from 0 to 1 when f(0) = f(1) = 0 and f(u) > 0 for 0 < u < 1. When there are more zeros of f, there is the possibility of bifurcations of the heteroclinic orbit as c varies. We give a detailed analysis of the bifurcation of the heteroclinic orbits when f is zero at the five points −1 < −θ < 0 < θ < 1 and f is odd. The heteroclinic orbit that tends to 1 as t → ∞ starts at one of the three zeros, −θ, 0, θ as t → −∞. It hops back and forth among these three zeros an infinite number of times in a predictable sequence as c is varied. 相似文献

This paper presents the electromagnetic wave propagation characteristics in plasma and the attenuation coefficients of the microwave in terms of the parameters he, v, w, L, wb. The φ800 mm high temperature shock tube has been used to produce a uniform plasma. In order to get the attenuation of the electromagnetic wave through the plasma behind a shock wave, the microwave transmission has been used to measure the relative change of the wave power. The working frequency is f = (2-35)GHz (ω=2πf, wave length A =15cm-8mm). The electron density in the plasma is ne = (3×10^10-1×10^14) cm^-3. The collision frequency v = (1×10^8-6×10^10) Hz. The thickness of the plasma layer L = (2-80)cm. The electron circular frequency ωb=eBo/me, magnetic flux density B0 = (0-0.84)T. The experimental results show that when the plasma layer is thick (such as L/λ≥10), the correlation between the attenuation coefficients of the electromagnetic waves and the parameters ne,v,ω, L determined from the measurements are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions of electromagnetic wave propagations in the uniform infinite plasma. When the plasma layer is thin (such as when both L and A are of the same order), the theoretical results are only in a qualitative agreement with the experimental observations in the present parameter range, but the formula of the electromagnetic wave propagation theory in an uniform infinite plasma can not be used for quantitative computations of the correlation between the attenuation coefficients and the parameters ne,v,ω, L. In fact, if ω<ωp, v^2<<ω^2, the power attenuations K of the electromagnetic waves obtained from the measurements in the thin-layer plasma are much smaller than those of the theoretical predictions. On the other hand, if ω>ωp, v^2<<ω^2 (just v≈f), the measurements are much larger than the theoretical results. Also, we have measured the electromagnetic wave power attenuation value under the magnetic field and without a magnetic field. The result indicates that the value measured under the magnetic field shows a distinct improvement. 相似文献

Accuracy of out-of-plane vorticity measurements derived from in-plane velocity field data 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A study of the errors in out-of-plane vorticity (ω
z
) calculated using a local χ2 fitting of the measured velocity field and analytic differentiation has been carried out. The primary factors of spatial
velocity sampling separation and random velocity measurement error have been investigated. In principle the ω
z
error can be decomposed into a bias error contribution and a random error contribution. Theoretical expressions for the transmission
of the random velocity error into the random vorticity error have been derived. The velocity and vorticity field of the Oseen
vortex has been used as a typical vortex structure in this study. Data of different quality, ranging from exact velocity vectors
of analytically defined flow fields (Oseen vortex flow) sampled at discrete locations to computer generated digital image
frames analysed using cross-correlation DPIV, have been investigated in this study. This data has been used to provide support
for the theoretical random error results, to isolate the different sources of error and to determine their effect on ω
z
measurements. A method for estimating in-situ the velocity random error is presented. This estimate coupled with the theoretically derived random error transmission results
for the χ2 vorticity calculation method can be used a priori to estimate the magnitude of the random error in ω
z
. This random error is independent of a particular flow field. The velocity sampling separation is found to have a profound
effect on the precise determination of ω
z
by introducing a bias error. This bias error results in an underestimation of the peak vorticity. Simple equations, which
are based on a local model of the Oseen vortex around the peak vorticity region, allowing the prediction of the ω
z
bias error for the χ2 vorticity calculation method, are presented. An important conclusion of this study is that the random error transmission
factor and the bias error cannot be minimised simultaneously. Both depend on the velocity sampling separation, but with opposing
effects. The application of the random and bias vorticity error predictions are illustrated by application to experimental
velocity data determined using cross-correlation DPIV (CCDPIV) analysis of digital images of a laminar vortex ring.

We investigate the relation between the structure and the viscoelastic behavior of a model polymer nanocomposite system based
on a mixture of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles and polypropylene. Above a critical volume fraction, Φ
c, the elasticity of the hybrids dramatically increases, and the frequency dependence of the elastic and viscous moduli reflects
the superposition of the independent responses of the suspending polymer melt and of an elastic particle network. In addition,
the elasticity of the hybrids shows critical behavior around Φ
c. We interpret these observations by hypothesizing the formation of a transient network, which forms due to crowding of particle
clusters. Consistent with this interpretation, we find a long-time, Φ-dependent, structural relaxation, which emphasizes the transient character of the structure formed by the particle clusters.
For times below this characteristic relaxation time, the elasticity of the network is Φ-independent and reminiscent of glassy behavior, with the elastic modulus, G′, scaling with frequency, ω, as G′∼ω
0.3. We expect that our analysis will be useful for understanding the behavior of other complex fluids where the elasticity of
the components could be superimposed. 相似文献

Experiments have been performed to assess the impact of an extended surface on the heat transfer enhancement for axisymmetric,
turbulent liquid jet impingement on a heated round disk. The disk, with an array of integral radial fins mounted on its surface,
is placed at the bottom of an open vertical circular cavity. Hydrodynamic and heat transfer data were obtained for a dielectric
fluorocarbon liquid FC-77. For a fixed circular heater of diameter D=22.23 mm, several geometric parameters were tested: the nozzle diameter (4.42≤d≤9.27 mm), the confining wall diameter of the vertical cavity (22.23≤D
c≤30.16 mm), and the nozzle-to-heater spacing (0.5≤S/d≤5.0). The FC-77 flow rates varied from =0.2 to 11.0 l/min producing Reynolds numbers in the wide interval 700≤Re
d
≤44,000. For d=4.42 mm, the heat transfer response to the separation distance S/d was small but increased gradually with increasing nozzle diameter up to d=9.27 mm. The thermal resistance R
th increased with the confining wall diameter D
c and also with the nozzle diameter d. A minimum value of the thermal resistance of R
th,min=0.4 cm2 K/W was attained for a combination of d=4.42 mm, D
c=22.23 mm, S/d=1, and =7.5 l/min. Based on a simplified heat transfer model, reasonable agreement was obtained between measured values of
the thermal resistance and the R
th-predictions. The total fin effectiveness ɛf was shown to increase with increasing nozzle diameter, but was invariant with the flow rate (or the jet exit velocity). More
than a three-fold heat transfer enhancement was realized through the addition of the array of integral radial fins on the
heated round disk.

Two hot-wire flow diagnostics have been developed to measure a variety of turbulence statistics in the buoyancy driven, air-helium
Rayleigh–Taylor mixing layer. The first diagnostic uses a multi-position, multi-overheat (MPMO) single wire technique that
is based on evaluating the wire response function to variations in density, velocity and orientation, and gives time-averaged
statistics inside the mixing layer. The second diagnostic utilizes the concept of temperature as a fluid marker, and employs
a simultaneous three-wire/cold-wire anemometry technique (S3WCA) to measure instantaneous statistics. Both of these diagnostics
have been validated in a low Atwood number (A
t
≤ 0.04), small density difference regime, that allowed validation of the diagnostics with similar experiments done in a hot-water/cold-water
water channel facility. Good agreement is found for the measured growth parameters for the mixing layer, velocity fluctuation
anisotropy, velocity fluctuation p.d.f behavior, and measurements of molecular mixing. We describe in detail the MPMO and S3WCA diagnostics, and the validation
measurements in the low Atwood number regime (A
t
≤ 0.04). We also outline the advantages of each technique for measurement of turbulence statistics in fluid mixtures with
large density differences. 相似文献

The near-field flow structure of a tip vortex behind a sweptback and tapered NACA 0015 wing was investigated and compared
with a rectangular wing at the same lift force and Re=1.81×105. The tangential velocity decreased with the downstream distance while increased with the airfoil incidence. The core radius
was about 3% of the root chord c
r, regardless of the downstream distance and α for α<8°. The core axial velocity was always wake-like. The core Γc and total Γo circulation of the tip vortex remained nearly constant up to x/c
r=3.5 and had a Γc/Γo ratio of 0.63. The total circulation of the tip vortex accounted for only about 40% of the bound root circulation Γb. For a rectangular wing, the axial flow exhibited islands of wake- and jet-like velocity distributions with Γc/Γo=0.75 and Γo/Γb=0.70. For the sweptback and tapered wing tested, the inner region of the tip vortex flow exhibited a self-similar behavior
for x/c
r≥1.0. The lift force computed from the spanwise circulation distributions agreed well with the force-balance data. A large
difference in the lift-induced drag was, however, observed between the wake integral method and the inviscid lifting-line
theory. 相似文献

We prove instability of the planar travelling wave solution in a two-dimensional free boundary problem modelling the propagation
of near- equidiffusional premixed flames in the whole plane. We reduce the problem to a fixed boundary fully nonlinear parabolic
system. The spectrum of the linearized operator contains an interval [0,ω
c
], ω
c
> 0, so we cannot construct backward solutions. We use an argument about stability of dynamical systems in Banach spaces
in order to prove pointwise instability of the moving front.

The aim of this work is to carry out an experimental investigation into the generation of airborne microparticles when millimetric
droplets of aqueous solutions impact onto a liquid film. Impact experiments using 3.9 mm diameter droplets were carried out
for Weber numbers between 159 and 808, with a fixed Ohnesorge number of 2 × 10−3 and film parameters S
f (the ratio between the thickness of the liquid film h
film and the diameter of the impacting droplet d
i) between 0.3 and 1. Observed results show that the deposition/splashing threshold is independent of the parameter S
f in agreement with the data in the literature. The aerosol measurement results demonstrate the production of solid particles
from the evaporation of secondary microdroplets with diameters less than 30 μm formed when splash occurs. The median diameter
of these microdroplets is around 20 μm, corresponding to a value of d
50/d
i = 5 × 10−3. Taken together, the results show that the mass and the number of particles emitted increase as the Weber number increases.
Moreover, at a Weber number of 808, the results show that the mass and number of particles emitted increases as the parameter
S
f decreases. In this case, the mean number of microdroplets emitted per impact is equal to 14 for S
f = 1 and equal to 76 for S
f = 0.3. 相似文献

0>0. Above u
0 the function f is positive, is locally Lipschitz continuous and satisfies convexity and growth conditions of a superlinear nature. Below
u
0, f is assumed to be non-positive, non-identically zero and merely continuous. Our results are obtained through a careful analysis
of the solutions of an associated initial‐value problem, and the use of a monotone separation theorem. It is known that, for
a large class of functions f, the ground states of (*) are radially symmetric. In these cases our result implies that (*) possesses at most one ground

Two natural classes of solutions can be associated with this equation. A conservative solution will preserve its energy in time, while a dissipative weak solution loses energy at the time when singularities appear. Conservative solutions are globally defined, forward and backward in time, and preserve interesting geometric features, such as the Hamiltonian structure. On the other hand, dissipative solutions appear to be more natural from the physical point of view.We establish the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem within the class of conservative solutions, for initial data having finite energy and assuming that the flux function f has a Lipschitz continuous second-order derivative. In the case where f is convex, the Cauchy problem is well posed also within the class of dissipative solutions. However, when f is not convex, we show that the dissipative solutions do not depend continuously on the initial data. 相似文献

Shear layers of a circular cylinder with rotary oscillation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The behavior of the separated shear layers and the near wake of a circular cylinder with small-amplitude rotary oscillations
(Ω1 = 0.05−0.15 for f
f/f
o ≤ 1.25) were investigated experimentally at Re = 3,700. Measurements of an unforced cylinder were also made for 2,000 ≤ Re ≤ 10,000 to better understand the effects of rotary oscillations. The results show that the shear-layer vortices formed closer
to the cylinder and the distance separating them was found to decrease with cylinder oscillations. The shear-layer frequency,
however, increased with increasing forcing frequency f
f. The formation-region length l
f decreased significantly with increasing f
f while decreased to a lesser extent with increasing normalized oscillation amplitude Ω1. The shear layer also diffused to a length L
d larger than that of an unforced cylinder, while the l
f-L
d-Strouhal frequency offsetting mechanism was generally maintained. The near wake was of lower momentum compared to an unforced
cylinder, and the transverse velocity fluctuations associated with the unforced vortex-shedding frequency f
o always presented a local peak at f

A Collocation-Based Algorithm for Computing the Pull-In Range of a Class of Phase-Locked Loops 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The pull-in range (ωp) of a phase-locked loop (PLL) is defined as the maximum value of loop detuning ω0s for which pull-in occurs from anywhere on the PLL's phase plane. That is, pull-in is guaranteed from anywhere on the phase
plane if ω0s < ωp. Simple approximation is available for computing ωp for the high gain PLL where saddle-node bifurcation occurs at ω0s = ωp. Unlike the high gain case, a simple approximation for ωp is not available for the low gain case where bifurcation from a separatrix cycle occurs at ω0s = ωp. The vector field model for a class of second-order PLLs is shown to have rotational properties, which imply the existence
of a separatrix cycle. The external stability of this separatrix cycle is an indicator of the type of bifurcation (saddle-node
or separatrix cycle) which terminates the limit cycle associated with the PLL's stable false lock state and the PLL pulls-in
(i.e. achieve phase lock). A formula is given for determining the separatrix cycle's stability, which indicates that these
paratrix cycle is externally stable for small values of closed loop gain. A collocation-based algorithm is presented for computing
the PLL's separatrix cycle and the value of pull-in range frequency ω0s = ωp at which a stable separatrix cycle exists. 相似文献

This study focuses on the self-sustained oscillatory flow characteristics between two tandem circular cylinders of equal diameter
placed in a uniform inflow. The Reynolds number (Re
D
), based on the cylinder diameter, was around 1,000 and all experiments were performed in a recirculating water channel. The
streamwise distance between two tandem cylinders ranged within 1.5 ≤ X
c/D ≤ 7.0. Here X
c denotes the center-to-center distance between two tandem cylinders. For all experiments studied herein, quantitative velocity
measurements were performed using hot-film anemometer and the LDV system. The laser sheet technique was employed for qualitative
flow visualization. The wavelet transform was applied to elucidate the temporal variation and phase difference between two
spectral components of the velocity signals detected in the flow field. The remarkable finding was that when two tandem circular
cylinders were spaced at a distance within 4.5 ≤ X
c/D ≤ 5.5, two symmetrical unstable shear layers with a certain wavelength were observed to impinge onto the downstream cylinder.
The responding frequency (f
u
), measured between these two cylinders, was much higher than the natural shedding frequency behind a single isolated cylinder
at the same Re
D
. This responding frequency decreased as the distance X
c/D increased. Not until X
c/D ≥ 6.0, did it recover to the natural shedding frequency behind a single isolated cylinder. Between two tandem cylinders,
the Strouhal numbers (St
c = f
u
X
c/Uc) maintained a nearly constant value of 3, indicating the self-sustained oscillating flow characteristics with a wavelength X
c/3. Here U
c is the convection speed of the unstable shear layers between two tandem cylinders. At Re
D
= 1,000, the self-sustained oscillating characteristics between two tandem circular cylinders were proven to exhibit a sustained
flow pattern, not just a sporadic phenomenon. 相似文献
