We present experimental and theoretical studies of the structures and transitions of the molecular orientation field of a smectic C* liquid crystal in the surface-stabilized geometry. The experimental results show that structures having from two to six stable orientation configurations are possible. The optical proper…

Fatigue strength and fatigue crack growth rates in nickel-aluminum bronze alloys were measured in air and 3.0 % sodium chloride solution under a free corrosion potential. The effect of a corrosion inhibiting heat treatment (6 h at 700°C followed by air cooling) on fatigue strength and fatigue crack propagation rates i…

アルカリゲルマン酸塩ガラスのラマンスペクトルを測定した. 種々の構造単位を含むゲルマン酸塩結晶のラマンスペクトルの系統的比較及びラマン強度に関するsimple stretching modelの両者から振動の帰属を行い, その結果を基に次のような構造モデルを提案した.KO1/2, RbO1/2, CsO1/23系のガラスでは, 25mol%付近までアルカリ成分はGeの5, 6配位化に費やされ, 非架橋酸素は生じない. したがって, この組成域でx/(1-x)>N6(5)>x/2(1-x)(N6(5): 5, 6配位Geの割合, x: MO1/2モル分率) が成立する. 20mol%付近から6配位のGeがGe4O16群を形成し, G…

Experiments have been performed to investigate the effect of cooled plate characteristic on the frost formation under the condition of forced convection. Two kinds of plates which have the different contact angles for water were utilized. Special attention was focussed on the incipient phenomena of the effect of the p…

The structure of molten B2O3 at ca. 650 °C has been investigated by the X-ray radial distribution method. The most likely two-dimensional quasi-crystalline model for the short-range arrangement is a mixed structure of boroxol rings and independent BO3 triangles. The estimated density for this model with an average int…

The thermodynamics of hydrolysis reactions show that hydroxyle groups are not stable in glass melt at high temperature. A refining stage carded out at 1000°C for 1 h results in low-OH-content bulk glasses. Preforms were prepared by this method and drawn into fibers. The maximum absorption of 2.9 μm was 110 dB/km and a…
