An extension is proposed for the self-validation Hamilton test [Hamilton (1965). Acta Cryst. 18, 502-510] for crystallographic refinement. The method is based on the statistical F test and evaluates the significance of the R-factor ratio between two refinement protocols. The general case of two refinements carried out…

A theoretical model of the stress-strain-temperature response of a thermally driven. shape memory alloy (SMA) composite actuator under applied load is developed. The actuator is assumed to be constructed from a thin layer of SMA bonded to a layer of elastomer. The model is developed by considering an energy balance on…

The surface of Sm 2 Fe 17 N x fine powder was stabilized by coating with zinc metal produced by the photodecomposition of diethylzinc (Zn(C 2 H 5 ) 2 ). The remanence ( B r ) and coercivity ( H cj ) values of the resulting Zn/Sm 2 Fe 17 N x powder were changed little by zinc coating, and remained at high levels even a…

Coupons of stainless steel type AISI-304 were exposed to the industrial cooling system of a petrochemical plant fed by seawater from the Guanabara Bay, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in order to study the in situ formation of biofilms. Bacteria, microalgae and fungi were detected on the coupons as soon as 48 h after exposure…

Tilting of the crystal profile during directional solidification is studied numerically, when the crystalline axis is misoriented from the temperature gradient and the pulling direction. Only with the anisotropy in surface stiffness is the crystal shown to tilt to an angle \ensuremath{\varphi} smaller than the misorie…
