Slip at the surface of a sphere translating perpendicular to a plane wall in micropolar fluid

The Stokes axisymmetrical flow caused by a sphere translating in a micropolar fluid perpendicular to a plane wall at an arbitrary position from the wall is presented using a combined analytical-numerical method. A linear slip, Basset type, boundary condition on the surface of the sphere has been used. To solve the Stokes equations for the fluid velocity field and the microrotation vector, a general solution is constructed from fundamental solutions in both cylindrical, and spherical coordinate systems. Boundary conditions are satisfied first at the plane wall by the Fourier transforms and then on the sphere surface by the collocation method. The drag acting on the sphere is evaluated with good convergence. Numerical results for the hydrodynamic drag force and wall effect with respect to the micropolarity, slip parameters and the separation distance parameter between the sphere and the wall are presented both in tabular and graphical forms. Comparisons are made between the classical fluid and micropolar fluid.      

Hyperfine magnetic field on Cd-111 in heusler alloys Co2MnZ (Z=Si,Ga, Ge,Sn)

The time differential perturbed angular correlation method has been used to measure, as a function of temperature, the hyperfine magnetic field at Cd sites in the Heusler alloys Co₂MnZ (Z=Si, Ga, Ge, Sn). The hyperfine fields, normalized to the total magnetic moment per formula unit, show an approximately linear trend toward more positive values with increasing lattice parameter.

A new synthesis for 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]-pyridines and 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]isoquinolines

Summary Condensation of cyano acid hydrazide1 with cyclopentanone in refluxing ethanolic piperidine yields hydrazone2. With mixtures of aliphatic aldehydes and different active methylene reagents,2 reacts to 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines (8a–f). Compound2 also reacts with arylidenes9a–g to give triazolopyridines10a–g. Reaction of2 with aromatic aldehydes affords compounds13a–c. Diazotation of2 with aryldiazonium chloride in ethanol at 0 °C leads to the azo adducts15a–d. The thieno-1,2,4-triazolopyridine16 is obtained by reaction of8a with elementary sulfur.16 undergoes cycloaddition with -nitrostyrene, maleic anhydride, N-arylmalemide, and acrylonitrile yielding the isoquinolines21–24. All new compounds have been characterized by their IR,¹H NMR, and mass spectra.

Electrospun PDA‐CA Nanofibers toward Hydrophobic Coatings

Nowadays, encapsulated dyes in a polymeric matrix have opened up new perspectives in many applications such as filtration of subatomic particles, composite reinforcement, multifunctional membranes, tissue engineering scaffolds, wound dressing, coatings, medical purposes as well as sensors. In the presented work, we report on electrospinning neat peryelene dianhydride based thermoplastic elastomers. Perylene‐3, 4,9, 10‐tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PDA) is encapsulated into cellulose acetate (CA) electrospun fibers, which was prepared from 12 % cellulose acetate solution, at 20 kV with a distance of 10 cm. The flow rate was 0.2 ml · h^–1. These water repellent nanofibrous coatings are anticipated to serve as hydrophobic coatings. Scanning electron microscope is used to study the properties of the electrospun PDA‐CA nanofibers.     

Thermodynamic Parameters of Some Schiff Bases Derived From 5,7-dihydroxy-6-formyl-2-methylbenzopyran-4-one

Potentiometric studies on Schiff bases derived from5,7-dihydroxy-6-formyl-2-methylbenzopyran- 4-one were carried out at different ionic strengths (0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.10 and 0.14 M NaCl), at different temperatures (25, 35, 45 and55°C) and in ethanol-water media of varying compositions (60, 70, 80 and 90% v/v). The ionization constants of the Schiff bases were investigated in the presence of different organic solvents (70% v/v), e.g. methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, acetone, DMSO and DMF-water media. The thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔH and ΔS) were also calculated. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
