A three-dimensional (3D) model for the simulation of the thermoplastic pultrusion process is developed. The simulation procedure and algorithms are based on the Finite Element–Nodal Control Volume (FE–NCV) approach. For illustration purposes, APC-2 CF–PEEK is used as a candidate material along with multiheater steel d…

Abstract The diimide hydrogenation of natural rubber (NR) was studied by using p ‐toluenesulfonylhydrazide (TSH) as a diimide‐releasing agent. The microstructure and the percentage of hydrogenation were studied by Raman, 1 H‐NMR and 13 C‐NMR spectroscopic techniques. Quantitative measurements on fraction of hydrogenat…

Electrically tunable laser action has been demonstrated in a dye-doped nematic liquid-crystal (NLC) waveguide by holographic excitation. The optical feedback was provided by the distributed feedback induced by two-beam interference by use of the Lloyd mirror configuration. Electrical tuning of the lasing wavelength wa…

The compositions of the hydrodistilled leaf oils of seven Pittosporum species, which are endemic to New Zealand, were examined by GC/MS. Their composition divided the species into two groups. The oils from the first group (P. crassifolium, P. fairchildii, P. tenuifolium and P. umbellatum) contained sesquiterpenes, whi…

We report on the electron spin resonance characterization of dominant paramagnetic defects created in pure diamond by neutron irradiation followed by annealing at temperatures above 1150 °C. Along with the previously reported R7, R8, R10a, and R12 centers, two extra S = 1 centers, labeled as R7a and KUL13, and two S =…

Growth and morphological evolution of hexapod-shaped Cu 2 O microcrystals is carefully studied via a γ-irradiation reduction route at room temperature and under ambient pressure. The products are examined by means of XRD patterns and FE-SEM images. The as-obtained hexapod-shaped Cu 2 O microcrystal is composed of six…

Plasma-sprayed MnZn ferrite thick films are built up by splats, which consist of columnar grains with diameter /spl sim/200 nm and height /spl sim/1 /spl mu/m. The existence of the conductive wustite FeO in the as-sprayed films greatly reduces the dc resistivity. However, a useful structure can be developed in these f…

New strategies were developed which incorporate silica nanoparticles (<30 nm) into a nylon‐6 matrix, to form technically interesting hybrid nanocomposites with improved stiffness. Silica particles retained their original shape and size (10–30 nm), are mono‐dispersed and mainly non‐agglomerated as shown by TEM. Mech…

Proper selection of the power conversion cycle is a very important step in the design of a nuclear reactor. Due to the higher core outlet temperature (˜550°C) compared to that of light water reactors (˜300°C), a wide portfolio of power cycles is available for the lead alloy fast reactor (LFR). Comparison of the follow…
