A model of a nonspherical gas bubble is developed in which the Rayleigh-Plesset equation is augmented with second order terms that back-couple the volume mode to a single shape mode. These additional terms in the Rayleigh-Plesset equation permit oscillation energy to be transferred back and forth between the shape and…

The self-bias magnetoelectric (ME) sensor is designed, fabricated, and characterized for detecting weak ac magnetic-field. The two different magnetostrictive materials produce the gradient of magnetization, resulting in an internal magnetic field and a strong ME response. At zero-biased dc magnetic field, a low-freque…

Abstract Highly weathered soils of the tropics and subtropics commonly have kaolinitedominated clay fractions. Under acidic conditions prevailing in these soils kaolinite dissolution occurs, contributing to the high levels of soluble Al in these soils. This study evaluates the dissolution behaviour of kaolinites from…
