High-resolution spectroscopy of the ν8 band of methylene bromide using a quantum cascade laser

A continuous wave cavity ringdown spectrometer with a Fabry-Perot quantum cascade laser has been used to collect a rotationally-resolved infrared spectrum of the ν₈ vibrational band of methylene bromide in a slit nozzle expansion. In our laboratory, previous observations of the vibrational band were limited by spectral coverage to only the P and Q-branches and by the 24 MHz step-size of the laser [1]. The issue of limited spectral coverage has been resolved using a Fresnel rhomb and a wire grid polarizer to protect the laser from the destabilizing effects of back-reflection from the ringdown cavity. The frequency step-size of the spectrometer has been reduced from 24 MHz to 2 MHz. With both of these instrument enhancements, we have been able to record the R-branch of the vibrational band, and can resolve many lines that were previously blended in spectra acquired using a pinhole expansion nozzle. Significant hyperfine splitting was observed for the low-J transitions in the P and R-branches. It was possible to neglect the effects of hyperfine splitting for transitions involving J″ > 2 in the spectral assignment, and simulations using the constants obtained by fitting to Watson’s S-reduced Hamiltonian for CH₂⁷⁹Br⁸¹Br, and the A-reduced form for CH₂⁷⁹Br₂ and CH₂⁸¹Br₂, provide a good match to experimental spectra. A total of 297 transitions have been assigned for all three isotopologues, with a standard deviation of 0.00024 cm⁻¹(∼7 MHz).     

Spatial‐skin effect for eigenvibrations of a thick cascade junction with ‘heavy’ concentrated masses

A spectral problem for the Laplace operator in a thick cascade junction with concentrated masses is considered. This cascade junction consists of the junction's body and a great number of ?‐alternating thin rods belonging to two classes. One class consists of rods of finite length, and the second one consists of rods of small length of order . The density of the junction is of order on the rods from the second class and outside of them. The asymptotic behavior of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of this problem is studied as ? → 0. There exist five qualitatively different cases in the asymptotic behavior of eigenmagnitudes as ? → 0, namely the case of ‘light’ concentrated (α ∈ (0,1)), ‘middle’ concentrated (α = 1), and ‘heavy’ concentrated masses (α ∈ (1, + ∞ )) that we divide into ‘slightly heavy’ concentrated (α ∈ (1,2)), ‘intermediate heavy’ concentrated (α = 2), and ‘very heavy’ concentrated masses (α > 2). In the paper, we study in detail the influence of the concentrated masses on the asymptotic behavior if α ∈ (1,2). We construct the leading terms of asymptotic expansions both for the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions and prove the corresponding asymptotic estimates. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Etude de la restauration de l'aluminium irradié aux electrons (Etape III)

The nature of the electron bombarded aluminium electrical recovery process has been studied by combining quenches with irradiations. Measured Frenkel pair formation rates per incident electrons as well as annealing kinetics emphasize the role of impurity interstitial trapping.     

Gel formation with multiple interunit junctions. II—mixture of different functional molecules

Number‐ and weight‐average molecular weight of condensation polymers formed in the mixture of primary molecules carrying different species of functional groups A and B are derived by the cascade theory. These functional groups are allowed to form multiple junctions of arbitrary multiplicity k. From the weight average, the gel point condition is found to be given by 1 ? (f_w ? 1)(μ_A,A ? 1) ? (g_w ? 1)(μ _B,B ? 1) + (f_w ? 1)(g_w ? 1)D_μ = 0, where f_w and g_w are average functionality of the primary molecules, μ _αβ the average multiplicity of β groups in the junctions where a path of an α‐group enters, and D_μ ≡ (μ_A,A ? 1)(μ _B,B ? 1) ? μ _A,Bμ _B,A the multiplicity determinant. Possible applications to thermoreversible gelation are suggested. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 41: 2413–2421, 2003     

求解跨音速粘性流反问题的有限体积法

1前言叶轮机械气动热力学研究的最终目的之一，是为工程师提供可用以设计高性能、高效率叶轮机械的思想与方法。而在过去叶轮机械气动热力学的研究大都集中求解正问题上，即在给定几何形状的叶片的条件下来求解流场上的气动参数。因此，为了设计出高性能的叶型，通常是凭设计者的经验，通过试验或正问题流场的分析计算，对一系列几何形状相差不大的叶型进行筛选。用这种方法是非常耗时并导致昂贵的设计费用，而且这样也并不总能得到预期的效果。所以，正问题计算虽然在预测性能和筛选试验方案等方面具有重要价值，但对于叶栅设计，应该具有…

Numerical simulation of the unsteady aerodynamic interaction of two plane airfoil cascades

A method for the calculation of unsteady aerodynamic interaction of two plane airfoil cascades that are in relative motion in a subsonic flow of ideal gas is developed. This interaction provides a two-dimensional approximation of the flow in a stage of an axial turbomachine. The method is based on the reduction of the problem to the calculation of the unsteady flow in a single interblade passage of each of the cascades. The calculation uses generalized space-time periodicity relations corresponding to the unsteady process of interest. The calculation is based on the direct numerical integration of the non-stationary gas dynamics equations with the use of the finite difference Godunov-Kolgan-Rodionov scheme of the second approximation order with respect to time and space. The calculation procedure includes the determination of the acoustic fields that are generated by the stage in the incident flow and in the flow behind it. The results of the calculations that illustrate the accuracy of the numerical solution and the capabilities of the method are presented.
