Study of adsorption of methylene blue and new methylene blue in liquid-solid interface by slab optical waveguide spectroscopy

A slab optical waveguide (SOWG) has been used for study of adsorption of both methylene blue (MB) and new methylene blue (NMB) in liquid–solid interface. Adsorption characteristics of MB and NMB on both bare SOWG and silanized SOWG by octadecyltrichlorosilane (ODS) were compared. Effect of pH on adsorption on MB and NMB was investigated. Binding rate constant analysis showed that both MB and NMB on bare SOWG demonstrates larger association constants than those on ODS-SOWG. Interactions of MB and NMB on bare SOWG and ODS-SOWG were analyzed by molecular mechanics calculation method. The binding energy change was in the following order: E_NMB–bare > E_MB–bare > E_NMB–ODS > E_MB–ODS.

FDTD Simulation of Electromagnetic Pulse Interaction with a Switched Plasma Slab

This paper deals with the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) simulation of interaction of an electromagnetic wave with a switched plasma slab. In formulating the simulation the well-known concepts of (a) total-field/scattered-field formulation (b) and PML lattice truncation are adapted to suit the simulation under consideration.FDTD is particularly well suited to handle the switched (time-varying) medium (including sudden switching) since the time varying parameters of the medium can be easily interpreted in the algorithm. The technique is applied to the difficult problem of interaction of an electromagnetic pulse source wave of frequency ₀ and a gaussian envelope with a newly created plasma slab of time-varying and space varying electron density profile. The creation of a pulse of Wiggler magnetic field in the slab is illustrated.     

Self-avoiding walks in slits and slabs with interactive walls

Self-avoiding walk models of a polymer confined between two parallel attractive walls in two and three dimensions (slits and slabs, respectively) have recently had a revival of interest. They were first studied as simple models of steric stabilisation and sensitised flocculation in colloids. The revival has been catalysed by new exact solution techniques, that have allowed the solution of directed walk models in two dimensions in full generality, and by new Monte Carlo techniques that have allowed the simulation of the full parameter space in the three-dimensional slab model. Additionally, rigorous techniques applied to the slab problem have also yielded new results. The contributions to the study of this problem that have been recently added include a novel phase diagram for the “infinite-slab” (when the walls are a macroscopic distance apart but both walls may still “see” the polymer) the delineation of the repulsive and attractive regimes of the parameter space, and a conjectured scaling theory for the problem in general dimensions.     

In situ monitoring of the H concentration change near an electrode surface through electrolysis using slab optical waveguide pH sensor

The H⁺ concentration change was monitored near an electrode surface through an electrolysis using a slab optical waveguide technique. Indium tin oxide transparent electrode modified by porous insulating polymer to which methyl red was covalently immobilized was used as a guiding layer, and the absorbance change of the polymer film was monitored. H⁺ generation at the vicinity of the electrode through the oxidation of ascorbic acid could be monitored by this technique.     

Mathematical modelling of flow control in a tundish using electro-magnetic forces

The control of flow in a tundish is important for improving the quality of the steel. Dams, Wiers and Pouring chamber are some of the devices used for controlling the flow in the tundish. The investigation about the role of electromagnetic forces as a replacement for these devices is an objective for the present work. Thus, 3-D MHD simulation was performed to study the effect of electromagnetic forces on flow behaviour in the tundish. The MHD model developed for carrying out the simulation was validated with the analytical solution of the Hartman problem. The results obtained shows improvement in the desired characteristics for inclusion flotataion with magnetic flow modifier of optimum strength of magnetic field.     

Simultaneous determination of methylene blue and new methylene blue by slab optical waveguide spectroscopy and artificial neural networks

A slab optical waveguide (SOWG) has been used for study of adsorption of both methylene blue (MB) and new methylene blue (NMB) in liquid-solid interface. Adsorption characteristics of MB and NMB on both bare SOWG and silanized SOWG by octadecyltrichlorosilane (ODS) were compared. The simultaneous determinations of both MB and NMB were explored by flow injection SOWG spectrophotometric analysis and artificial neural networks (ANNs) for the first time. Concentrations of MB and NMB were estimated simultaneously with the ANNs. Results obtained with SOWG were compared with those got by conventional UV-visible spectrophotometry.     

Ab initio calculations of surface electronic states in indium oxide

A slab approach in the framework of ab initio calculations was applied to study surface electronic states in In₂O₃ crystal. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out employing the WIEN 2k code and using the full potential method with Augmented Plane Waves + local orbitals (APW+lo) formalism. Total and partial DOS (Density of States) were calculated for In and O atoms in two upper (110) surface layers. Comparison of total and partial DOS allowed determining a contribution of electronic states of different In and O surface atoms into formation of surface electronic spectra and corresponding chemical bonds. A dominant ionic character of chemical bonds in In₂O₃ is found. Calculations were performed for three slab models with different geometry parameters. It was shown that an optimal ratio between the whole vertical size of a supercell and the vertical size of atomic cluster has to be chosen. The size of vacuum region in the slab model influences significantly on the reliability of calculated characteristics of the surface electronic structure. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
