Experimental analysis of the steady-state behaviour of beam systems with discontinuous support

This paper deals with the experimental analysis of the long-term behaviour of periodically excited linear beams supported by a one-sided spring or an elastic stop. Numerical analysis of the beams showed subharmonic, quasi-periodic and chaotic behaviour. Furthermore, in the beam system with the one-sided spring three different routes leading to chaos were found. Because of the relative simplicity of the beam systems and the variety of calculated nonlinear phenomena, experimental setups are made of the beam systems to verify the numerical results. The experimental results correspond very well with the numerical results as far as the subharmonic behaviour is concerned. Measured chaotic behaviour is proved to be chaotic by calculating Lyapunov exponents of experimental data.

Sommario Il presente lavoro concerne l'analisi sperimentale del comportamento a regime di travi lineari, su supporti elastici nonlineari discontinui, eccitate periodicamente. L'analisi numerica dei sistemi in esame ha evidenziato risposte subarmoniche, quasi-periodiche e caotiche, nonchè l'esistenza, nel caso di trave con una molla laterale, di tre differenti percorsi verso il caos. La relativa semplicità dei sistemi di travi ha consentito di procedere ad una verifica sperimentale dei risultati numerici e della varietà dei fenomeni nonlineari da essi evidenziati. La corrispondenza fra risultati sperimentali e numerici è molto buona nel caso di risposta subarmonica. Il comportamento caotico sperimentale è stato convalidato attraverso il calcolo degli esponenti di Lyapunov a partire dai relativi dati.

     

A quasi-flow constitutive model with strain-rate dependence

In this paper, the proposed is a quasi-flow constitutive model with strain-rate sensitivity for elastic plastic large deformation. The model is based on the Quasi-flow Corner theory, and is suitable for the sheet metal forming process simulation with a variable punch machine velocity. Uniaxial tensile tests and deep-drawing tests of a circular blank with square punch are carried out and numerically simulated. The consistency between the experimental and the numerically simulated results shows the validity of the present new constitutive model.

Synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, DFT studies and biological assays of a novel gold(I) complex with 2-mercaptothiazoline

A new gold(I) complex with 2-mercaptothiazoline (MTZ) with the coordination formula [AuCN(C₃H₅NS₂)] was synthesized and characterized by chemical and spectroscopic measurements, DFT studies and biological assays. Infrared (IR) and ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic measurements indicate coordination of the ligand to gold(I) through the nitrogen atom. Studies based on DFT confirmed nitrogen coordination to gold(I) as a minimum of the potential energy surface with calculations of the hessians showing no imaginary frequencies. Thermal decomposition starts at temperatures near 160 °C, leading to the formation of Au⁰ as the final residue at 1000 °C. The gold(I) complex with 2-mercaptothiazoline (Au-MTZ) is soluble in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and is insoluble in water, methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile and hexane. The antibacterial activities of the Au-MTZ complex were evaluated by an antibiogram assay using the disc diffusion method. The compound showed an effective antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (Gram-positive) and Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Gram-negative) bacterial cells. Biological analysis for evaluation of the cytotoxic effect of the Au-MTZ complex was performed using HeLa cells derived from human cervical adenocarcinoma. The complex presented a potent cytotoxic activity, inducing 85% of cell death at a concentration of 2.0 μmol L⁻¹.

Experimental evaluation and constitutive modeling of non-proportional deformation for asymmetric steels

Recently non-proportional deformation has received increased attention from researchers working in the area of experimental and computational modeling of metal deformation. However, most of them are numerical in nature with limited experimental data available, making it further difficult to model non-proportional deformation. In the present work, two-stage uniaxial tests, along with uniaxial cyclic and biaxial tests for different stress ratios, have been performed to evaluate deformation behavior of ultra-low carbon high strength automotive steel. Behaviors like cross-effect and hardening stagnation, which are attributed to the evolution of complex dislocation structures, were observed in this steel. It was also noticed that this steel exhibits tension-compression asymmetry. As for constitutive modeling, a modified asymmetric yield function is proposed to be used with a combined isotropic-kinematic hardening model. Also methods to account for the hardening stagnation during reverse loading and the cross-effect during two-stage deformation are proposed. The resulting constitutive model showed reasonably good agreement with experimental results.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering effect of gold nanoparticle arrays: The influence of annealing temperature,excitation power and array thickness

Gold nanoparticle arrays are fabricated for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and the effect of the annealing temperature, the thickness of nanoparticle array and the exciting power on the SERS signals are investigated. The particle distribution and particle size are dense and uniform on the glass substrate when the 10 nm gold film was annealed at 250 °C and strong SERS signals for Rhodamine 6G were achieved via a 532 nm excitation with a 10 mW power. The SERS signal at 1650 cm⁻¹ is enhanced more than 10 times as compared to that of the gold film without annealing. The strong SERS behavior of gold nanoparticle arrays may broaden the SERS applications in biomedical and analytical chemistry.

Rh-catalyzed π-facial selective intermolecular hydroacylation of norbornenes

Rh-catalyzed π-facial selective intermolecular hydroacylations of norbornenes with salicylaldehyde have been attained. In the reaction with norbornylene, the exo-hydroacylated product was produced because of steric hindrance. In the case of norbornadiene, the endo-product was obtained because of chelation effect. Lastly, because of chelation and remote substituent effects, the product formed in the reaction of 7-tert-butoxynorbornadiene was the endo,syn-product. Deuterium-labeling experiments revealed that the hydroacylation stereoselectively proceeded via endo- and exo-intermediates.
