Mechanics of materials subjects in the engineering curricula obviously involve both mechanics and materials concepts, but many such subjects have become overly concentrated on mechanics at the expense of materials. A stronger linkage between the two disciplines could improve both efficiency and student learning. Some…

We obtained polymer dispersed nematic liquid crystal films E7/PMMA. Using the thermally stimulated depolarization currents method and registering the optical signal simultaneously we studied the dependence of the phase transitions temperatures on the polarizing electric field. Thermal switch behavior and its dependenc…

New homologous series containing a thienyl-enaminoketone-phenyl (TEP) core substituted by a halogen atom have been synthesized. It is shown that the stability of the orthogonal phases decreases with the decreasing electron-accepting properties of the halogen atom. Generally the materials studied form orthogonal smecti…

The influence of the type of solvent on styrene polymerization behavior with cyclopentadienyltitanium trichloride (CpTiCl3) and methylalumoxane (MAO) catalytic system at 25°C was investigated. It was found that the number-average molecular weight (M̄n) of the polystyrene produced was correlated with the dielectric con…

The paper presents the results of the energetic event triggered in FARO test L-33, which was the last test of the FARO series dedicated to large-scale experimental investigation of FCI in light water reactors. In FARD L-33, 100 kg of UO{sub 2}-ZrO{sub 2} corium at 3000 K were released via a 50 mm orifice to a pool of…

The output voltage generated from bundles of twisted Vicalloy wires was studied. When the magnetically soft layers of the wires were reversed by an applied external magnetic field, a pulse voltage, owing to a large Barkhausen jump, was induced in a search coil wound around the wires. The output did not depend on the e…

A homologous series of 4-methyl-2'-hydroxy-4'-alkoxyazobenzenes with chain lengths from 1 to 12 carbon atoms was synthesized and the temperatures of melting, freezing and transition from nematic to isotropic phase were determined. The main thermodynamic characteristics for those transitions were estimated. The liquid…

The electronic structure around a point defect in an annealed TiO 2 (110)-(1×1) surface has been studied by scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy. At a defect site of bridging oxygen, we found an unoccupied defect state at 1.2 eV above the Fermi level. Trapped electrons at the gap states were found on fivefold-co…

A dielectric-film waveguide with a grating etched on its film-cover interface can be used as a polarization converter. The e wave can be converted into the h wave and vice versa if the guided wave is incident obliquely to the grating vector. The polarization converter is analyzed by use of a quasi-optic technique. A h…
