A new reverse analysis is presented that determines the plastic response of both nongraded and plastically graded materials (PGMs) without the need for traditional tension or compression tests. The method utilizes the concepts of expanding cavity model for strain hardening materials, Tabor’s rule of converting Vickers hardness to flow stress, representative plastic strain induced by indentation, and finite element modeling of the macro indentation process. A unique flow curve is determined when the experimentally measured increase in micro Vickers hardness matches that predicted by the proposed method within the plastic zone of a macro Vickers indent. The method is validated for a nongraded stainless steel first and then extended to determine the gradient in flow curves of plastically graded, case-hardened M50 NiL material, a widely used bearing steel. Such knowledge of the plastic response of the case hardened region will help optimize the design of case hardened bearings with longer rolling contact fatigue life and higher thrust load capabilities. 相似文献
A minimal normal extension of unbounded subnormal operators is established and characterized and spectral inclusion theorem
is proved. An inverse Cayley transform is constructed to obtain a closed unbounded subnormal operator from a bounded one.
Two classes of unbounded subnormals viz analytic Toeplitz operators and Bergman operators are exhibited. 相似文献
Umbelliferyl sugars have been used to determine the lectin concentration in very dilute solution by fluorescence quenching methods. The Stern-Volmer plot of fluorescence quenching after considering ground-state complexation is obeyed by several sugars. As little as 1 μg of lectin (in 10 μl) and 250 nM of umbelliferyl sugars can be determined. This method offers a simple, non-destructive and rapid method for the determination of lectin activity. 相似文献
We consider the problem of approximate range counting over a stream of d-dimensional points. In the data stream model the
algorithm makes a single scan of the data, which is presented in an arbitrary order, and computes a compact summary data
structure. The summary, whose size depends on the approximation parameter ε, can be used to count the number of points inside
a query range within additive error εn, where n is the size of the stream seen so far. We present several results, deterministic
and randomized, for both rectangle and halfspace ranges. 相似文献
Oxidative coupling of methane for the production of ethylene was studied over Li-Ni/MgO catalyst in a fixed bed reactor. The influences of important reaction parameters such as temperature (T), methane/oxygen ratio (CH4/O2) in feed and space velocity of reactants (V/mcat) were studied over the conversion of methane, yields of ethylene and ethane and selectivity of ethylene formation. The reaction conditions were varied as 650 < T < 850oC, 0.83 x 10-6 < V/mcat < 2.92 x 10-6 m3/g s and 1 < CH4/O2 ratio < 8. 相似文献
Geometric coordinates are an integral part of many data streams. Examples include sensor locations in environmental monitoring, vehicle locations in traffic monitoring or battlefield simulations, scientific measurements of earth or atmospheric phenomena, etc. This paper focuses on the problem of summarizing such geometric data streams using limited storage so that many natural geometric queries can be answered faithfully. Some examples of such queries are: report the smallest convex region in which a chemical leak has been sensed, or track the diameter of the dataset, or track the extent of the dataset in any given direction. One can also pose queries over multiple streams: for instance, track the minimum distance between the convex hulls of two data streams, report when datasets A and B are no longer linearly separable, or report when points of data stream A become completely surrounded by points of data stream B, etc. These queries are easily extended to more than two streams.
In this paper, we propose an adaptive sampling scheme that gives provably optimal error bounds for extremal problems of this nature. All our results follow from a single technique for computing the approximate convex hull of a point stream in a single pass. Our main result is this: given a stream of two-dimensional points and an integer r, we can maintain an adaptive sample of at most 2r+1 points such that the distance between the true convex hull and the convex hull of the sample points is O(D/r2), where D is the diameter of the sample set. The amortized time for processing each point in the stream is O(logr). Using the sample convex hull, all the queries mentioned above can be answered approximately in either O(logr) or O(r) time. 相似文献
It has been shown in this paper that a test proposed by Barlow and Doksum (1972) based on the exponential scores statistic for testing exponentiality against increasing failure rate distributions is consistent for the much wider class of harmonic new better than used in expectation distributions. 相似文献
The crystal structure of the potential antitumor metal compound, viz. chloro, mono(phenanthrenequinone thiosemicarbazonato) palladium(II) dimethyl formamide solvate, is reported. The central palladium(II) atom is in a square planar environment provided by the tridentate, monoanionic thiosemicarbazone ligand and the ancillary chloride ion. The compound exhibited remarkable activity against drug-sensitive and drug-resistant breast cancer cell lines and was relatively nontoxic toward the normal mammary epithelial cells. The drug-induced killing effect against breast cancer cell lines was predominantly mediated via apoptosis, a physiologic form of cell death. 相似文献
A convenient and nonreductive deiodination is reported for the ortho-iodo-hydroxylated arenes including derivatives of quinolinol, phenol, and naphthol. Tertiary amines pyridine, triethylamine, and N-methylmorpholine in the presence of water initiated deiodination of ortho-iodo-hydroxylated arenes without affecting para-iodine and other reduction-susceptible groups. This reported method also works efficiently for polyiodinated systems. Simplicity, short reaction times, and absence of reducing catalyst are features of this method. 相似文献
We have described a spectacular salt effect in the kinetic resolution of (+/-)-1-phenylethylamine, which leads to an increase in reactivity, high levels of selectivity, and a complete reversal of the stereoselectivity. By tuning the reaction conditions, we were able to increase the selectivity factor of (1S,2S)-1 to s = 115. 相似文献
