New epoxy thermosets modified with hyperbranched poly(ester-amide) of different molecular weight

The influence of hydroxy-functionalized hyperbranched poly(ester-amide) (HBP) of different molecular weight on the curing process of diglycidylether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) was studied using methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride (MTHPA) as curing agent. By Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) the curing reaction was monitored and the covalent incorporation of the modifier in the matrix was proved. By thermomechanical analysis (TMA) the reduction of the contraction after gelation on changing the HBP proportion was observed. The incorporation of HBP increased the glass transition temperature (T_g) and reduced the overall shrinkage. The modified materials showed a higher thermal degradability than neat DGEBA thermosets allowing reworkability. Thermal expansion coefficient, Young’s modulus, impact strength and microhardness were improved. The water uptake behavior was also evaluated.     

A separation theorem for the weak s-convex orders

The present paper extends to higher degrees the well-known separation theorem decomposing a shift in the increasing convex order into a combination of a shift in the usual stochastic order followed by another shift in the convex order. An application in decision making under risk is provided to illustrate the interest of the result.     

Size dependence of the thermo-electrodynamics states of composite high-Tc superconductors and its effect on the current instability conditions

The effect of transverse geometries of the slab of composite high-T_c superconductors on their stable and unstable thermal and electrodynamics transient states in the incomplete and complete penetration modes during the current charging are discussed. The transient period when the electric field that is induced by the charged current becomes more homogeneous during the initial stage of the complete penetration mode in the sub-critical voltage range is studied. In the over-critical voltage range, the cross-section shape of the slab affects its stable and unstable temperature variation. As a result, the current instability condition is not identical for high-T_c superconducting composite tapes that have the same cross-sectional area with various shapes of the cross-section. The condition depends on their thickness: the less thickness, the more stable the current distribution in the composite superconductors with the same cross-sectional area. This feature is a result of the unavoidable reduction of the current-carrying capacity of a high-T_c superconducting composite by the temperature increase. This reduction is caused by the relevant temperature dependence of electrodynamics states of the composite. This temperature dependence happens even during a stable stage of the current charging. These mechanisms must be considered during experiments at which the critical or quenching currents are defined.     

EPS混凝土的动态劈裂强度和能量耗散

 用分离式Hopkinson压杆对多种聚苯乙烯(expanded polystyrene,EPS)体积含量的EPS混凝土试样进行了动态劈裂实验。提出了描述EPS混凝土劈裂强度与应力率关系的经验公式,该式同时适合于静态和动态应力率,并根据实验结果拟合了系数。分析了EPS含量、粒径大小对劈裂强度和动态增强因数的影响,发现碳纤维能有效提高EPS混凝土的动态劈裂强度,尤其对于小EPS粒径混凝土。此外,还研究了试样的能量耗散随应力率的变化规律,EPS含量增加时,试样的能量耗散随应力率的增加而增加,反应出EPS颗粒具有增韧和吸能效果。

Effect of heat transfer on a third grade fluid in a flat channel

The heat transfer analysis on the laminar flow of an incompressible third grade fluid through a porous flat channel is examined. The lower plate is assumed to be at a higher temperature than the upper plate. Analytical solution for temperature distribution is obtained for various values of the controlling parameters and discussed. The obtained analytical solution is also compared with the numerical solution. The comparison shows the fact that the accuracy is remarkable. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
