Abstract A tailor‐made autoclave setup for simultaneous acoustic irradiation and hydrogenation was used in the hydrogenation of fatty acids and carbohydrates. The aim was not to perform actual sonochemistry but to retard deactivation of the catalyst by means of acoustic irradiation. The catalyst used was a Raney nicke…

Achiral multi-block liquid crystals are not expected to form polar domains. Recently, however, films of nanoaggregates formed by multi-block rodcoil molecules were identified as the first example of achiral single-component materials with macroscopic polar properties. By solving an Ising-like model with dipolar and as…

Serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT), a pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzyme, catalyses the transfer of the hydroxymethyl group from serine to tetrahydrofolate to yield glycine and N (5), N (10)-methylenetetrahydrofolate. An analysis of the known SHMT sequences indicated that several amino acid residues wer…

Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PZT) thin films were deposited onto Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates with different-types of TiO2 layers by liquid delivery MOCVD at 550°C. Three kinds of TiO2 adhesion layers were examined: 200 oriented TiO2 with rutile structure, 103 oriented TiO2 with anatase structure and randomly oriented TiO2 which consis…

Benchmark solutions in Computational Fluid Dynamics are necessary for testing and for the verification of newly developed algorithms and codes. For flows involving heat transfer coupled to solid-liquid phase change and convection in the melt, such benchmark solutions do not exist. A set of benchmark problems has recen…

This paper proposes a new membrane stress based model to predict the draping of woven fabrics over irregular surfaces. It has been well established that pure shear is the main mechanism allowing a woven fabric to conform to double curvature shapes. Although the kinematic drape models developed on this principle serve…

Raman spectroscopy was employed for studies of the thermal degradation of poly(vinyl chloride). Intensity enhancement of vibrations belonging to conjugated double bond sequences in the corresponding spectra allowed the detection of degradation at the very first stage. In this initial period, the kinetics of degradatio…
