Anisotropic Molecular Orientation of Micellar Nematic Phase in a Binary Mixture of Two Nonmesogenic Compounds

We report the results of our studies on the optical and thermal properties of two nonmesogenic compounds, namely, Cetyl-dimethyl-ethylammonium bromide (CDEAB) and Glacial acetic acid. The mixture exhibits very interesting schilieren texture of micellar nematic phase, SmA, SmC*, and SmE phases, respectively, at different concentrations of CDEAB sequentially when the specimen is cooled from its isotropic phase. The order parameter (S) of the micellar nematic phase is estimated with the help of temperature dependence of optical anisotropy from the measured values refractive index and density data. The temperature variation of order parameter of the experimental curve is very well fitted with the Mayer–Saupe theoretical curve. X-ray studies have been discussed. The formation of above phases has been confirmed by optical and DSC studies.     

Experimental viscosities and viscosity predictions of a ternary mixture comprising silicone oils and 1-octene from 293.15 K to 353.15 K

Viscosities of the ternary and binary mixtures of 1-octene, Rhodorsil H68, Rhodorsil 308V750 have been measured at different temperatures between 293.15 and 353.15 K and at atmospheric pressure. Two correlations were established to predict the viscosity of all mixtures. The first is a statistical expression deduced from an experimental design. The second is based on an additivity law and the temperature effect on binary mixtures.     

Investigating the Calculation of Rotational Viscosity of the Mixture Comprising Different Kinds of Liquid Crystals:Molecular Dynamics Computer Simulation Approach

Molecular dynamics (MD) computer simulation techniques, as a powerful tool commonly utilized by the liquid crystal display (LCD) community, usually are employed for computing the equilibrium and transport properties of a classical many body system, since they are very similar to real experiments in many respects. In this paper we present molecular dynamics computer simulation results taken for a mixture of the two different kinds of nematic liquid crystals (LCs). We calculated rotational viscosity from Brownian behavior with friction of the mean director of the mixture comprising pentylcyanobiphenol (5CB) and decylcyanobiphenol (10CB) by using molecular dynamics computer simulation, where intermolecular potential parameter is Generalized AMBER force field (GAFF). Our computed results show a good agreement with the experimental results.

基于线性光谱模型和支撑向量机的软硬分类方法

针对硬分类方法中无法解决的混合像元问题及软分类方法中全图共用一套端元进行混合像元分解所带来的弊端,提出了一种新的软硬分类方法。该方法通过分析目标地物在图像中的分布情况,自动计算判别阈值,将图像分为目标地物纯净区域、目标地物混合区域和非目标地物区域。对于目标地物纯净区域和非目标地物区域采用硬分类方法(支撑向量机)快速提取分类信息;对于目标地物混合区域采用软分类方法(端元可变的线性混合像元分解)提取目标地物丰度信息,最后得到目标地物软硬分类结果。通过对北京地区ALOS图像的应用试验,并将新方法与支撑向量机、线性光谱混合模型进行比较,新方法的RMSE值为0.203,总量精度达到95.48%,高于支撑向量机和线性光谱混合模型。实验结果表明,新方法能够有效解决混合像元问题,提高图像分类精度。

Direct blast initiation of spherical gaseous detonations in highly argon diluted mixtures

In this study, direct initiation of spherical detonations in highly argon diluted mixtures is investigated. Direct initiation is achieved via a high voltage capacitor spark discharge and the critical energy is estimated from the analysis of the current output. Stoichiometric acetylene–oxygen mixtures highly diluted with 70% argon is used in the experiment. Previous investigations have suggested that detonations in mixtures that are highly diluted with argon have been shown to be “stable” in that the reaction zone is at least piecewise laminar described by the ZND model and cellular instabilities play a minor role on the detonation propagation. For the acetylene–oxygen mixture that is highly diluted with argon, the experimental results show that the critical energy where the detonation is “stable” is in good agreement with the Zel’dovich criterion of the cubic dependence on the ZND reaction length, which can be readily determined using the chemical kinetic data of the reaction. The experimental results are also compared with those estimated using Lee’s surface energy model where empirical data on detonation cell sizes are required. Good agreement is found between the experimental measurement and theoretical model prediction, where the breakdown of the 13λ relationship for critical tube diameter – and hence a different propagation and initiation mechanism – is elucidated in highly argon diluted mixtures and this appears to indicate that cellular instabilities do not have a prominent effect on the initiation process of a stable detonation.     

Formulation of thermo-hydro-mechanical coupling behavior of unsaturated soils based on hybrid mixture theory

Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical （THM） coupling pro- cesses in unsaturated soils are very important in both theoretical researches and engineering applications. A coupled formulation based on hybrid mixture theory is derived to model the THM coupling behavior of unsaturated soils. The free-energy and dissipative functions for different phases are derived from Taylor＇s series expansions. Constitutive relations for THM coupled behaviors of unsaturated soils, which include deformation, entropy change, fluid flow, heat conduction, and dynamic compatibility conditions on the interfaces, are then established. The number of field equations is shown to be equal to the number of unknown variables; thus, a closure of this coupling problem is established. In addition to modifications of the physical conservation equations with coupling effect terms, the constitutive equations, which consider the coupling between elastoplastic deformation of the soil skeleton, fluid flow, and heat transfer, are also derived.
