Evidence of wave front folding of sonic booms by a laboratory-scale deterministic experiment of shock waves in a heterogeneous medium

The influence of the planetary boundary layer on the sonic boom received at the ground level is known since the 1960s to be of major importance. Sonic boom propagation in a turbulent medium is characterized by an increase of the mean rise time and a huge variability. An experiment is conducted at a 1:100,000 scale in water to investigate ultrasonic shock wave interaction with a single heterogeneity. The experiment shows a very good scaling with sonic boom, concerning the size of the heterogeneities, the wave amplitude, and the rise time of the incident wave. The wave front folding associated with local focusing, and its link to the increase of the rise time, are evidenced by the experiment. The observed amplification of the peak pressure (by a factor up to 2), and increase of the rise time (by up to about one magnitude order), are in qualitative agreement with sonic boom observations. A nonlinear parabolic model is compared favorably to the experiment on axis, though the paraxial approximation turns out less precise off axis. Simulations are finally used to discriminate between nonlinear and linear propagations, showing nonlinearities affect mostly the higher harmonics that are in the audible range for sonic booms.     

Raman and optical absorption spectroscopic investigation of Yb-Er codoped phosphate glasses containing SiO_2

Yb-Er codoped Na2O-Al2O3-P2O5-xSiO2 glasses containing 0 - 20 mol% SiO2 were prepared successfully. The addition of SiO2 to the phosphate glass not only lengthens the bond between pS＋ and non-bridging oxygen but also reduces the number of P=O bond. In contrast with silicate glass in which there is only four-fold coordinated Si4＋, most probably there coexist [SiO4] tetrahedron and [SiO6] oetahedron in our glasses. Within the range of 0 - 20 mol% SiO2 addition, the stimulated emission cross-section of Era＋ ion only decreases no more than 10%. The Judd-Ofelt intensity parameters of Er3＋, Ω2 does not change greatly, but Ω4 and Ω6 decrease obviously with increasing SiO2 addition, because the bond between Er3＋ and O2- is more strongly eovalently bonded.     

Large-scale ultrasonic cleaning system: Design of a multi-transducer device for boat cleaning (20kHz)

The present study is part of a global project which consists in the development of an automatic cleaning station for immersed boats (cockle, ninepin, etc.) in a self-service mode, associating an innovative ultrasonic device for cleaning with a specific water treatment. The originality of the process is that cleaning is performed by three transducers operating simultaneously at low frequency and moving along the surface, thanks to programmable logic controllers, and that it includes a suction to collect the dirt removed. Therefore, the time required for boat maintenance is shortened, ensuring high quality cleaning without the need for dry docks and avoiding additional pollution in the harbor areas. One of the key points was the evaluation of washing efficiency, as it is really hard to give a quantitative estimation of the dirt removed. To obtain the first design laws, feasibility tests have been carried out on dirty cockle samples and on real boat hulls with a laboratory ultrasonic device. The influence of a large number of parameters was tested such as transducer-probe distance, displacement speed and transmitted power. The obtained data allowed us to design an optimized cleaning device combining high efficiency and speed.     

A Bis-Chelating / Ligand for the Synthesis of Heterobimetallic Platinum(II)/Rhenium(I) Complexes: Tools for the Optimization of a New Class of Platinum(II) Anticancer Agents

The two independent and coordination sites of a newly synthesized bis[2-(hydroxyphenyl)-1,2,4-triazole] platform have been exploited to prepare four monometallic neutral ()Pt^II complexes carrying DMSO, pyridine, triphenylphosphine, or N-heterocyclic carbene as the fourth ligand. Then, the second coordination site was used to introduce an IR-active rhenium tricarbonyl entity, affording the four corresponding heterobimetallic neutral Pt^II/Re^I complexes, as well as a cationic Pt^II/Re^I derivative. X-ray crystallographic studies showed that distortion of the organic platform occurred to accommodate the coordination geometry of both metal centers. No ligand exchange or transchelation occurred upon incubation of the Pt^II complexes in aqueous environment or in the presence of Fe^III, respectively. The antiproliferative activity of the ligand and complexes was first screened on the triple-negative breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231. Then, the IC₅₀ values of the most active candidates were determined on a wider panel of human cancer cells (MDA-MB-231, MCF-7, and A2780), as well as on a nontumorigenic cell line (MCF-10A). Low micromolar activities were reached for the complexes carrying a DMSO ligand, making them the first examples of highly active, but hydrolytically stable, Pt^II complexes. Finally, the characteristic mid-IR signature of the {Re(CO)₃} fragment in the Pt/Re heterobimetallic complexes was used to quantify their uptake in breast cancer cells.     

Chemical Preparation,Thermal Behavior,Kinetic, and IR Studies of MnK4(P3O9)2.2H2O,Crystallographic Data of a New Cyclotriphosphate MnK4(P3O9)2, and Quantum Chemical Calculations for the P3O3− 9 Ion

Abstract

Chemical presparation, thermal behavior, and infrared (IR) studies are discussed for the cyclotriphosphate MnK₄(P₃O₉)₂.2H₂O and its anhydrous form MnK₄(P₃O₉)₂. The total dehydration of MnK₄(P₃O₉)₂.2H₂O, between 200 and 550 °C, leads to its anhydrous form MnK₄(P₃O₉)₂. MnK₄(P₃O₉)₂ is a new cyclotriphosphate crystallizing in the rhombohedral system and is stable until its melting point at 560 °C. The thermal behavior of MnK₄(P₃O₉)₂.2H₂O has been investigated and interpreted by comparison with IR absorption spectrometry and X-ray diffraction experiments. Two different methods, Ozawa and KAS (Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose), were selected in studying the kinetics of thermal behavior of the title compound. Quantum chemical calculations were made for the P₃O ^3? ₉ ion.

Design,Synthesis and Structural Analysis of New Macrocycles Containing Dispiro-1,3-dioxane Units

The synthesis and the structure of new macrocycles containing semiflexible dispiro-1,3-dioxane units is reported. The structural analysis of the compounds is performed by high field NMR spectra, mass spectrometry investigations (MALDI, ESI-MS) and the solid state molecular structure obtained for two compounds by single crystal X-ray diffractometry. The dynamics of the macrocycles promoted by the flipping of the middle cyclohexane ring of the dispirane units is investigated using low temperature NMR experiments.

How Strain Affects the Reactivity of Surface Metal Oxide Catalysts

Highly dispersed molybdenum oxide supported on mesoporous silica SBA‐15 has been prepared by anion exchange resulting in a series of catalysts with changing Mo densities (0.2–2.5 Mo atoms nm^?2). X‐ray absorption, UV/Vis, Raman, and IR spectroscopy indicate that doubly anchored tetrahedral dioxo MoO₄ units are the major surface species at all loadings. Higher reducibility at loadings close to the monolayer measured by temperature‐programmed reduction and a steep increase in the catalytic activity observed in metathesis of propene and oxidative dehydrogenation of propane at 8 % of Mo loading are attributed to frustration of Mo oxide surface species and lateral interactions. Based on DFT calculations, NEXAFS spectra at the O‐K‐edge at high Mo loadings are explained by distorted MoO₄ complexes. Limited availability of anchor silanol groups at high loadings forces the MoO₄ groups to form more strained configurations. The occurrence of strain is linked to the increase in reactivity.
