Comparison of the Effect of Hydrostatic and Dynamic High Pressure Processing on the Enzymatic Activity and Physicochemical Quality Attributes of ‘Ataulfo’ Mango Nectar

The effects of hydrostatic (HHP) and dynamic (HPH) high-pressure treatments on the activity of pectin methylesterase (PME) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) as well as the physicochemical quality attributes of ‘Ataulfo’ mango nectar were assessed. HHP reduced PME relative activity by 28% at 100 MPa for 5 min but increased PPO activity almost five-fold. Contrarily, HPH did not affect PME activity, but PPO was effectively reduced to 10% of residual activity at 300 MPa and at three passes. Color parameters (CIEL*a*b*), °hue, and chroma were differently affected by each type of high-pressure processing technology. The viscosity and fluid behavior were not affected by HHP, however, HPH changed the apparent viscosity at low dynamic pressure levels (100 MPa with one and three passes). The viscosity decreased at high shear rates in nectar samples, showing a shear-thinning effect. The results highlight how different effects can be achieved with each high-pressure technology; thus, selecting the most appropriate system for processing and preserving liquid foods like fruit beverages is recommended.

单向纤维复合材料粘弹性性能预测

建立了基于均匀化理论的单向纤维复合材料粘弹性性能预测方法。对单向纤维增强复合材料粘弹性问题的控制方程进行Laplace变换,在像空间中利用均匀化理论建立宏观松弛模量的Laplace变换与微结构描述参数以及变换参数间的关系。用Prony级数模拟松弛模量随变换参数的变化形式,并根据像空间中一系列变换参数对应的松弛模量的数值,采用函数拟合技术确定Prony级数的形式,从而确定用显示形式表示的松弛模量的Laplace变换随变换参数的变化规律。对显式表达式的逆变换获得时间域内的松弛模量。该方法利用拟合函数的逆变换避开了复杂的数值Laplace逆变换,使单向纤维增强复合材料的粘弹性性能的确定变得容易。文中给出了单向纤维复合材料松弛模量的数值预测结果并同有限元法模拟试验的结果对比,验证了预测结果的准确性以及本文方法的有效性。     

Asymptotic analysis of a thin linearly elastic plate equipped with a periodic distribution of stiffeners

We derive several models of thin plates equipped with a periodic distribution of stiffeners. Depending on the orders of magnitude of the different parameters involved, diverse situations arise, from classical Kirchhoff–Love behaviour with additional energy term to full rigidification.     

A Comparison of homogenization, Hashin-Shtrikman bounds and the Halpin-Tsai Equations

In this paper we study a unidirectional and elastic fiber composite. We use the homogenization method to obtain numerical results of the plane strain bulk modulus and the transverse shear modulus. The results are compared with the Hashin-Shtrikman bounds and are found to be close to the lower bounds in both cases. This indicates that the lower bounds might be used as a first approximation of the plane strain bulk modulus and the transverse shear modulus. We also point out the connection with the Hashin-Shtrikman bounds and the Halpin-Tsai equations. Optimal bounds on the fitting parameters in the Halpin-Tsai equations have been formulated.     

Diffusion Dynamics of Classical Systems Driven by an Oscillatory Force

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of solutions to a kinetic equation describing the evolution of particles subject to the sum of a fixed, confining, Hamiltonian, and a small time-oscillating perturbation. Additionally, the equation involves an interaction operator which projects the distribution function onto functions of the fixed Hamiltonian. The paper aims at providing a classical counterpart to the derivation of rate equations from the atomic Bloch equations. Here, the homogenization procedure leads to a diffusion equation in the energy variable. The presence of the interaction operator regularizes the limit process and leads to finite diffusion coefficients. AMS Subject classification: 74Q10, 35Q99, 35B25, 82C70     

Propagation of Electromagnetic Waves in Non-Homogeneous Media
