Abstract The response of the screw dislocation core in a body-centred cubic model lattice to a general applied stress tensor is examined by means of computer simulation. The Peierls stress is found to have the symmetry required by Neumann’s principle but is found also to have a very strong dependence on shear componen…
Abstract The change in core structure of the screw dislocation in a body-centred cubic lattice subjected to a general applied stress tensor is studied by means of computer simulation. The large variations observed are found not to be correlated with the applied stress, in that the same deformed core structure can be r…
For many years iron has become less and less important for permanent magnets. Recently, however, Japanese and American researchers have brought back iron in a new compound which produces, perhaps, the best magnetic properties ever. The largest potential for this product is electric motors, which could have half the si…
Vesicles formed from dialkyl surfactants containing vinyl, methacrylate, diacetylene, isocyano, and styrene groups have been stabilized by polymerization across their bilayers of head groups. Polymerized vesicles have shelf lives of many months and controllable permeabilities and sizes. The kinetics of surfactant vesi…
The net rate of production of ammonia from hydrogen and nitrogen synthesized by a promoted iron catalyst has been analyzed for the case of pulsed healing. Explicit expressions have been derived for the rate of production at various stages of the process. It has been shown that pulsed heating for this reaction under ce…
This paper briefly describes the preparation of amorphous films of WO3-x ·yH2O. The films were coloured either photo- or thermo-chromically, and the electrical conductivity and thermopower were measured in the temperature range 100 to 500 K. The conductivity [sgrave] could be described by the relationship [sgrave] = […
A Moraxella strain capable of utilizing 1,4-type polybutadiene as a sole source of carbon was isolated from soil. About 40% of polybutadiene having a number average molecular weight (Mn) of 2,350 was degraded and assimilated by the strain in 5 days. A polybutadiene sample with an Mn of 16,100, however, was hardly degr…
Abstract An atmospheric corrosion monitor (ACM) has been developed for monitoring atmospheric corrosion of Zn‐coated iron and tin and SnPb coated copper in salt spray and hot steam atmosphere using the electrochemical technique of polarization resistance R p . ACM for Sn and SnPb coatings is made using the printed cir…
Five inorganic salts were applied at two levels to cotton fabric. The fabric samples were then tested in the vertical test and oxygen index test, with temperatures and heating rates monitored. Only the CaC03 and MgCl 2 samples at high levels affected the vertical test, although several other specimens had oxygen index…
The Digital Fibrograph length uniformity index is usually misinterpreted. The theoretical maximum for this index is 51.28. The theoretical maximum index requires that: 1) all cotton ( Gossypium sp.) fibers within the beard being scanned by the Fibrograph have the same length, 2) that the fibers are randomly caught and…
Changes in the clay mineralogy in a chronosequence of polder soils cultivated with paddy rice for 15, 75, 150, and 265 years in Kojima Basin were studied. Parent materials of each profile appeared to be homogeneous. Prolonged paddy cultivation (150 and 265 years) brought about some modification in the clay mineralogy…
Abstract Polycaprolactone at moderate usage levels has been determined to provide desirable modifications of both rigid and plasticized poly(vinyl chloride). In rigid PVC it effected significant improvement in melt processing as well as good modulus, tensile strength, and kerosene resistance. Impact strength was not m…
The effect of metal admixtures on the structure and imperfections of chalcogenide glassy semiconductors is investigated for Ga admixture in GeSe 4 glass. Information is obtained by the positron annihilation technique. A microcrystalline phase in glass under doping at low admixture concentrations (about 0.01 at %) is i…
Abstract The title clathrate Cd(NH(CH3)2)2Ni(CN)4·\frac12C6H6 has a layered host structure of metal complex network [CdNi(CN)4]∞ linked by the CN ligands and the benzene molecule is enclathrated in a cage-like cavity formed between the layers. The channel-like cavity, observed along with the cage-like one for the Hofm…
Chaetoceros muelleri Lemm. was isolated from lower Chevelon Creek, Arizona and cultured in a defined medium. Maximum division rates occurred at temperatures between 20 and 30°C with mean doublings per day sharply decreasing above and below this temperature range. No divisions occurred at <5°C or >40°C. Chaetoceros mue…
Measurements are presented of the variation of the acoustic cavitation threshold of water with concentration of the polymer additives polyethylene oxide and guar gum. It was found that small amounts of these additives could significantly increase the cavitation threshold. A theoretical model, based upon nucleation of…
A new water-tree-retardant XLPE has been developed for power cables after intensive studies of various materials. The new XLPE is filled with an organic polymer that acts as a barrier against water-tree propagation. Cables having this new insulation material generate far fewer and smaller water trees and have a voltag…
The force-extension behavior of a helically wrapped rubber-like core up to the point of wrap failure has been theoretically analyzed. In addition to the forces required to extend the wrap and core, there is a significant Poisson effect because the wrap applies a radial pressure to the core, particularly at higher heli…
The bending rigidity of wool worsted yams was estimated from the mean fiber diameter together with four correction factors due to fiber diameter distribution, yam twist, fiber ellipticity, and mean fiber length. The first two correction factors were the most important. The bending hysteresis (the coercive couple) incr…
Moharam and Gaylord [ J. Opt. Soc. Am.71, 811 ( 1981)] have recently found a neat new way of numerically analyzing the coupled-wave equations describing light propagation in thick, uniformly modulated dielectric gratings with parallel planar boundaries. This interesting new contribution has raised some important quest…
