An investigation into a piezoelectrically actuated nebulizer with μEDM-made micronozzle array

This study uses micromachining techniques to fabricate a piezoelectrically actuated nebulizer with an easily assembled structure. The experimental measurement and numerical simulation have been performed to gain the insight of atomized droplet behavior and fluidic mechanics for the developed devices. It is expected that a better understanding of these physical insights can lead to various potential applications. Based on the results obtained from a series of investigations, this study has found the optimal operating conditions for the proposed nebulizer. Various test fluids with different viscosities and surface tensions are considered, including water, dilute alcohol, oil, and a honey-like fluid. A spray stability analysis is performed in which the operating voltage and frequency of the piezoelectric actuator in the nebulizer are varied and the corresponding changes in the ejected particle size, flow rate and ejection distance examined. Air trapped within the nebulizer reservoir adversely affects the injection performance. Hence, the effect of the operating parameters on the volume of air ingested into the reservoir during the nebulizer operation is investigated and discussed.     

Some Properties for the Euclidean Distance Matrix and Positive Semidefinite Matrix Completion Problems

The Euclidean distance matrix (EDM) completion problem and the positive semidefinite (PSD) matrix completion problem are considered in this paper. Approaches to determine the location of a point in a linear manifold are studied, which are based on a referential coordinate set and a distance vector whose components indicate the distances from the point to other points in the set. For a given referential coordinate set and a corresponding distance vector, sufficient and necessary conditions are presented for the existence of such a point that the distance vector can be realized. The location of the point (if it exists) given by the approaches in a linear manifold is independent of the coordinate system, and is only related to the referential coordinate set and the corresponding distance vector. An interesting phenomenon about the complexity of the EDM completion problem is described. Some properties about the uniqueness and the rigidity of the conformation for solutions to the EDM and PSD completion problems are presented.     

Effect of system parameters on the size distributions of hollow nickel microspheres produced by an ultrasound-aided electrical discharge machining process

Ultrasound-aided electric discharge machining（EDM） is an emerging technology for producing hollow nickel microspheres.This technology combines traditional EDM with the cavitation and vibration effects of ultrasound to produce hollow microspheres.In this paper,ultrasound-aided EDM was carried out in a kerosene medium（the working solution）.The effects of various parameters on the sizes of microspheres were investigated using scanning electronic microscopy（SEM）.Smileview software was used to measure the sizes of the microspheres.Originpro software was used for statistical analysis to determine the size distributions of the microspheres.To study the effects of the system parameters on the sizes of the microspheres,we first investigated the necessity of using an ultrasonic wave with EDM.After comparing the experimental results with and without the ultrasonic field,we found that ultrasound-induced cavitation and vibration effects reduced the diameters of the microspheres.We then studied the effects of several electrical parameters,including the arc current,pulse width,and gap voltage,on the sizes of the microspheres at an ultrasound frequency of 40 kHz.Smaller microspheres could be obtained by lowering the arc current,pulse width,and gap voltage.     

Neutron electric dipole moment measurement with a buffer gas comagnetometer

A neutron EDM measurement with a comagnetometer is discussed. For magnetometry, polarized xenon atoms are injected into a cylindrical cell where a cylindrically symmetric magnetic field and an electric field are applied for the EDM measurement. The geometric phase effect (GPE), which originates from particle motion in a magnetic field gradient, is analyzed in terms of the Dyson series. The motion of the xenon atom is largely suppressed because of a small mean free path. The field gradient is controlled by means of NMR measurements, where the false effect of Earth?s rotation is removed. As a result, the GPE is reduced below 10⁻²⁸e cm${10}^{-28}e\text{cm}$.     

The cyclotron gas stopper project at the NSCL

Permanent electric dipole moments (EDMs) violate parity and time-reversal symmetry. Within the Standard Model (SM), they require CP violation and are many orders of magnitude below present experimental sensitivity. Many extensions of the SM predict much larger EDMs, which are therefore an excellent probe for the existence of ‘new physics.’ So far only electrically neutral systems were used for sensitive searches of EDMs. Several techniques, based on storing fast particles in a magnetic storage ring, are being developed to probe charged particles for an EDM. With the introduction of these novel experimental methods, high sensitivity for charged systems, in particular light nuclei, is within reach. The author represents the Storage Ring EDM Collaboration.     

The eventually distance minimizing rays in moduli spaces

The eventually distance minimizing ray(EDM ray) in moduli spaces of the Riemann surfaces of analytic finite type with 3 g + n-3 0 is studied, which was introduced by Farb and Masur [5]. The asymptotic distance of EDM rays in a moduli space and the distance of end points of EDM rays in the boundary of the moduli space in the augmented moduli space are discussed in this article. A relation between the asymptotic distance of EDM rays and the distance of their end points is established. It is proved also that the distance of end points of two EDM rays is equal to that of end points of two Strebel rays in the Teichmu¨ller space of a covering Riemann surface which are leftings of some representatives of the EDM rays. Meanwhile, simpler proofs for some known results are given.     

Laser surface-contouring and spline data-smoothing for residual stress measurement

We describe non-contact scanning with a confocal laser probe to measure surface contours for application to residual stress measurement. (In the recently introduced contour method, a part is cut in two with a flat cut, and the part deforms by relaxation of the residual stresses. A cross-sectional map of residual stresses is then determined from measurement of the contours of the cut surfaces.) The contour method using laser scanning is validated by comparing measurements on a ferritic steel (BS 4360 grade 50D) weldment with neutron diffraction measurements on an identical specimen. Compared to lower resolution touch probe techniques, laser surface-contouring allows more accurate measurement of residual stresses and/or measurement of smaller parts or parts with lower stress levels. Furthermore, to take full advantage of improved spatial resolution of the laser measurements, a method to smooth the surface contour data using bivariate splines is developed. In contrast to previous methods, the spline method objectively selects the amount of smoothing and estimates the uncertainties in the calculated residual stress map.

Iterative dipole moment method for calculating dielectrophoretic forces of particle-particle electric field interactions

Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is one of the most popular techniques for bio-particle manipulation in microfluidic systems. Traditional calculation of dielectrophoretic forces of single particle based on the approximation of equivalent dipole moment (EDM) cannot be directly applied on the dense particle interactions in an electrical field. The Maxwell stress tensor (MST) method is strictly accurate in the theory for dielectrophoretic forces of particle interaction, but the cumbersome and complicated numerical computation greatly limits its practical applications. A novel iterative dipole moment (IDM) method is presented in this work for calculating the dielectrophoretic forces of particle-particle interactions. The accuracy, convergence, and simplicity of the IDM are confirmed by a series of examples of two-particle interaction in a DC/AC electrical field. The results indicate that the IDM is able to calculate the DEP particle interaction forces in good agreement with the MST method. The IDM is a purely analytical operation and does not require complicated numerical computation for solving the differential equations of an electrical field while the particle is moving.
