Density effects of heavy-ion stopping power in high temperature matter

Abstract

The stopping power and range for Xe ions in high temperature matter (partially ionized plasmas) have been calculated using the dielectric response function method. Calculations have been made for a target matter Al (Z = 13) over a wide range of temperatures and densities considering a finite temperature model. The stopping powers obtained have smaller values in comparison with those of a zero temperature model. The stopping power strongly depends on the density and temperature of the target material, and the projectile ion energy.     

Banana fiber/chemically functionalized polypropylene composites with in-situ fiber/matrix interfacial adhesion by Palsule process

Chemically functionalized maleic anhydride (MAH)-grafted polypropylene matrix has been used (in place of polypropylene as matrix with compatibilizer) to process banana fiber/chemically functionalized polypropylene (BF/CFPP) composites, without using any compatibilizer and without any fiber modification by Palsule process. Fiber/matrix interfacial adhesion generated, in-situ, due to interactions between BF and the MAH of the CFPP matrix has been established by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Mechanical properties of the BF/CFPP composites developed by Palsule process with in-situ fiber/matrix interfacial adhesion in this study have been found to be higher than those of the matrix and it increases with increasing amounts of fibers in composites, and are better than properties of literature reported BF/polypropylene composites processed with compatibilizers. Measured modulus of BF/CFPP composites compares well with values predicted by rule of mixtures, Hrisch model, Halpin-Tsai equations and its modified Nielsen version, and with Palsule equation. The feasibility of developing natural fiber/MAH grafted polyolefin composites by Palsule process without using any compatibilizer and without any fiber treatment is demonstrated.     

考虑Soret和Dufour效应的方腔内双扩散自然对流格子Boltzmann模拟

采用格子Boltzmann方法,考虑Soret和Dufour效应,对内置高浓度发热圆的方腔内部双扩散自然对流现象进行数值模拟.高浓度发热圆位于方腔中心,四周壁面均为低温低浓度.在该模型中,用三个独立的LBGK方程分别模拟速度场、温度场和浓度场,并通过Boussinesq近似将它们耦合起来.分析Soret数和Dufour数对方腔内部双扩散自然对流的影响,得到流线图、等温线图、等浓度线图、发热圆表面平均Nusselt数和平均Sherwood数.结果表明：Soret和Dufour效应对方腔内双扩散自然对流影响明显,不能忽略.     

封闭圆内开缝圆自然对流换热的振荡特性

本文通过数值计算探讨了封闭圆内开缝圆自然对流换热的振荡特性。数值计算以整个圆为计算区域,采用了非稳态的数学模型和具有QUICK差分格式的SIMPLE算法。在相同条件下计算结果和实验结果符合很好。数值结果显示, 当几何结构一定时,Rayleigh数Ra小于某个临界值时,流动和换热处于稳态,并且关于垂直中心线对称;Ra大于这个临界值时,流动和换热是振荡的,非对称的。数值实验还表明,流动和换热出现振荡时的临界Rayleigh数Rac与开缝圆的开缝度有关,且流动和换热的振荡会出现对称振荡和非对称振荡两种情形。

Isotope Geochemical Studies on Carbonates of Quaternary Glacio-Lacustrine Lake Sediments as indicators of Paleoenvironment

Selected silty “summer” and argillaceous “winter” layers of profiles of the rhythmically bedded glacio-lacustrine ice-marginal lake sediment of the Dehlitz-Leipzig varved clay (Leipziger Tieflandsbucht, Central Germany) have been examined for isotope composition (¹⁸O/¹⁶O, ¹³C/¹²C) of carbonate and organic fraction. In addition, mineralogical and grain size compositions were determined. The results show 1) a change in source of carbonate sediment (provenance) through time; 2) the oxygen isotope ratios differed between the “summer” and “winter” layers of varves couplets due to different rates of sedimentation; 3) anoxic events occurred in the lake; 4) carbon isotope ratios suggest organics in lake sediments which were derived from land and the primary productivity was low in the lake itself. In the study of cold-climatic lake sediments, isotope investigations can efficiently be used as additional paleosedimentological and facies indicators.     

Effects of molecular geometry on liquid crystalline phase behaviour: isotropic-nematic transition

The effects of range and geometry of a simple attractive square-well on the phase diagram of hard ellipsoids and hard spherocylinders is systematically studied using a simple van der Waals type theory. The orientational single particle distribution function is approximated using the Onsager trial function. The quantitative errors introduced by this are thought to be considerably smaller than the use of the van der Waals approximation, which has been shown to give qualitatively correct phase diagrams for similar models. The phase diagrams obtained for hard ellipsoids and hard spherocylinders of aspect ratios ranging between 3 and 10 with a variety of square-well attractions are found to fall into three general types. The first type shows liquid-vapour coexistence and an isotropic-nematic transition, which meet at a liquid-vapour-nematic triple point. The second type shows a marked widening of the isotropic-nematic biphasic region which pre-empts the liquid-vapour coexistence. The final phase diagram shows a strong destabilization of the nematic phase with respect to the isotropic, which results in a shift of the phase transition to higher densities and pressures as the temperature is lowered.     

Investigation of Carbon Black Network in Natural Rubber with Different Bound Rubber Contents

A new method was applied to modify the surface activity of virginal carbon black (VCB). LA‐57, one kind of hindered amine light stabilizer, was adsorbed onto the carbon black surface through a strong shear force induced by the screws of a HAAKE internal mixer. The modified carbon black (MCB) was characterized by FT‐IR and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The bound rubber content of the natural rubber (NR) compounded with MCB and VCB varied with the fraction of LA‐57 on the MCB surface. The nonlinear effect at small strains, generally referred as the Payne effect, was investigated in the rubber compounds based on the different bound rubber contents. The NR compound containing the lowest bound rubber content had an obvious Payne effect. Based on the bound rubber content, the types of filler network varied from direct contact mode to the joint rubber shell mechanism.
