The goal of this paper is to study the steady-state dynamic response of an oscillator involving a hysteretic component and exposed to harmonic excitation. This is accomplished by using the Preisach formalism in the description of the contribution of the hysteretic component. Two cases are considered. In the first one,…

Israelites using bricks made of clay and reinforced with straw are an early example of application of composites. The individual constituents, clay and straw, could not serve the function by themselves but did when put together. Some believe that the straw was used to keep the clay from cracking, but others suggest th…

A molecular dynamics simulation was performed to study the effect of an applied force on heat transfer at the interface of model diamond [111] nanosurfaces. The force was applied to a small, hot nanosurface at 800, 1000, or 1200 K brought into contact with a larger, colder nanosurface at 300 K. The relaxation of the i…

A mixed condensation of a substituted and unsubstituted silicon phthalocyanine monomer, in which the former serves as a "cap" to a growing oligomeric chain, provides unprecedented access to a mixed dimer, trimers, and a tetramer. An important element of product control can be achieved by changing the ratio of the prec…

The heat exchanged at the low-temperature first-order magnetostructural transition is directly measured in ${\mathrm{Gd}}_{5}{\mathrm{Ge}}_{4}$. Results show that the origin and the temperature dependence of the heat exchanged varies with the reversible/irreversible character of the first-order transition. In the reve…

We report on the up-converted ultraviolet near-band edge emission of bulk ZnO generated by visible and ultraviolet photons with energies below the band gap. This up-converted photoluminescence was observed in samples intentionally doped with Tm ions, suggesting that the energy levels introduced by the rare earth ion i…

We have investigated negative charge carrier transport in the smectic mesophases of the 2-phenylnaphthalene derivative, 6-(4'-octylphenyl)-2-dodecyloxynaphthalene (8-PNP-O12), using the time-of-flight (TOF) method. We revealed that the negative charge carrier transport in its smectic mesophases had two different mecha…

A complete Raman scattering study on a lithium tetraborate single crystal is reported. The frequency and scattered intensity of Raman modes are carefully determined in the various geometrical configurations. These Raman data are then used to relate to the electro-optical and non-linear optical properties. Raman scatte…

Conventional fixed-bed catalytic reactors have obvious disadvantages, such as maldistributions of various kinds (resulting in nonuniform access of reactants to the catalytic surface and nonoptimal local process conditions), large pressure drop over the bed, and sensitivity to fouling by dust. Due to the random and cha…
