Design and fabrication of 2 kHz nematic liquid crystal variable retarder with reflection mode

ABSTRACT

This study proposes a simple method of designing a high-speed liquid crystal variable retarder (LCVR) with reflection mode. First, a series of simple formulas is provided for analysing the effects of tilt incidence and birefringence of the liquid crystal on the phase retardation and response time of the LCVR. Then, a reflective LCVR is fabricated to validate the theoretical analysis. Measured results show that the response speed can reach 2.7 kHz with a phase retardation of 1 λ. Furthermore, the theoretical curve is close to the measured curve while the incident angle is less than 10°. However, the theoretical and measured values show a considerable difference under a large incident angle. This problem is discussed, and a modified method is given. This work is helpful for the design and fabrication of high-speed LCVR.

Electron impact induced fragmentation of aromatic N-alkoxy-imines I. Ring closure in (M-CH2O)+• ions by intramolecular aromatic substitution

Summary N-Butoxy- and N-propoxy-imines derived fromo-,m-, andp-substituted benzaldehydes (X = F, Cl, Br, I) decompose upon electron impact to the respective aldoximes by loss of C _n H_2n and competitivelyvia 1,5-distonic radical cations by loss of CH₂O to 1,3-distonic ions which eliminate H and/or a halogen atom in the course of homolytic aromatic substitution, giving rise to cyclic (M-CH₂O-H)⁺ or (M-CH₂O-X )⁺ ions.Dedicated with warm regards to Prof. Dr.D. Seebach, Zürich, on the occasion of his 60^th birthday     

Speed of Sound, Isentropic Compressibilities, and Excess Molar Volumes of Binary Mixtures Containing p-Dioxane

The speed of sound u in and densities of eight binary mixtures of p-dioxane (p-C₄H₈O₂) with methylcyclohexane (c-C₆H₁₁CH₃), 1-chlorohexane (C₆H₁₃C1), 1-bromohexane (C₆H₁₃Br), p-xylene [C₆H₄(CH₃)₂], propylbenzene (C₆H₅C₃H₇), methyl acetate CH₃COOCH₃), butyl acetate (CH₃COOC₄H₉), and amyl acetate (CH₃COOC₅H₁₁) were measured over the whole composition range at 30°C. Isentropic compressibilities (K _S), Rao's molar sound functions (R), excess molar volumes (V ^E), excess isentropic compressibilities (K _S ^E ) together with relative change in volume V/₁₂ values, have been obtained for all measured mole fractions. The excess partial molar volume (V₁-V ₁ ⁰ ) of p-dioxane in different solvents have also been estimated. The experimental results have been analyzed in terms of the Prigogine–Flory–Patterson theory of solutions.

Impact Responses of Prismatic Lithium-Ion Battery Based on the Membrane Factor Method北大核心CSCD

Aimed at the internal short circuit problem due to large deformation of the prismatic lithium-ion battery cell under impact loadings, a simplified battery model was first established. Then the motion equations of velocity and displacement based on the membrane factor method were proposed. With the effects of the face-sheet thickness and the densification region on the normalized final deflection, impact response characteristics of prismatic battery cells were investigated in detail. The results show that, the improved motion equations involving the membrane factor can reflect the dynamic response mechanisms of the prismatic battery cell under impact loadings, and the large deflection under high-speed impact can be predicted. With the increase of the face-sheet thickness, the deflection of the battery cell’s lower part decreases obviously. However, the densification region expands with the face-sheet thickness. The deflection and the densification region of the cell’s lower part both increase with the inner core density of the battery. This proposed impact model provides a theoretical guidance for the multi-functional integrated dynamic design of prismatic battery cells. © 2022 Editorial Office of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics.

A predictive model for impact response of viscoelastic polymers in drop tests

We show for the first time that a classical Hookean viscoelastic constitutive law for rubbery materials can predict the impact forces and deflections measured with a commercial drop tester when a mass, or tup with a flat impacting surface is dropped onto a flat pad of commercial impact-absorbing rubber. The viscoelastic properties of the rubber, namely the relaxation times and strengths, are obtained by a standard rheological linear-oscillatory test, and the equation of momentum transfer is then solved, using these measured parameters, assuming a uniaxial deflection of the pad during the impact. Good agreement between measured and predicted forces and deflections is obtained for a series of various drop heights, tup masses, impact areas, and pad thicknesses, as long as the deflection of the pad relative to its thickness is small or modest (<50% or so), and as long as the area of the pad is less than or equal to that of the tup. When the pad area is greater than the tup, forces are higher than predicted, unless an empirical factor is introduced to account for the nonuniaxial stretching of the ring of material that extends outside of the impact area. These results imply that the impact-absorbing properties of a rubbery polymeric material can be assessed by simply examining the material's linear viscoelastic spectrum.     

The theoretical basis of column chromatography in multicomponent separations. Part 2: Peak capacity. Column systems with good selectivity

The selectivity of a column system, S, defined by equation 28, includes a variation coefficient (β) of plate number with capacity ratio which has a large influence on the peak capacity, as shown in Fig. 18. Some typical chromatograms are given. In order to predict S for a column system from Kovat's Index, equations 40 and 41 are given to calculate the constant of the carbon number rule for squalane at different temperatures or for different stationary phases. The specific retention value of heptane on squalane at different temperatures can be calculated from equation 42. The nonpolarity index, defined by equation 43, was used to calculate the retention value of heptane on various stationary phases. In liquid chromatography, the order of elution may be reversed by changing the composition of the eluent on the same chemically bonded silica (manufactured in China). The linear relations between the log retention values of different kinds of solutes or of a single solute on the silicas of different surface areas when using the same eluent are given.
