In this work we analyse the consequences of relaxing the rotational isomeric state (RIS) approximation in predicting the transitional properties of nematogenic systems formed by two mesogenic moieties linked by a flexible spacer, as in the homologous series of α,ω-bis(4′-cyanobiphenyl-4-yl)alkanes and α,ω-bis(4′-cyano…
Carbon nanotubes (see figure) constitute one of the smallest one‐dimensional and nearly perfect structures available and these materials should exhibit a wide range of interesting properties. Most of these properties, however, will only be of use if te structures can be manipulated into a controlled configuration here…
The interfacial structure of [1011] twins obtained using atomic-scale computer simulation by Serra, Pond and Bacon in 1991 is shown to be qualitatively consistent with high-resolution transmission electron micrographs of such twins in Ti obtained by Kasukabe, Yamada, Peng and Bursil in 1993. In addition, images of two…
The structural properties of copper(I) iodide have been investigated at pressures up to 40 GPa using the angle-dispersive x-ray diffraction technique with an image-plate area detector. A previously unreported structural phase transition is observed in the region of 17.3 to 18.2 GPa, from the antilitharge structured ph…

The behavior of liquid crystalline polymers in the interfacial region between the isotropic and nematic phases is investigated based on an inhomogeneous free-energy functional. A mean-field approximation is used for the system of semiflexible polymers obeying the Saito-Takahashi-Yunoki description and interacting via…
Those who need a better vacuum, either in existing systems or for new construction, should be interested in this discussion, since there is at present no method of analysis to predict the bake time and temperature required to achieve a specific low outgassing rate from stainless steel. It has been known for a generati…
O2 and pH microprofiles were measured above corroding mild steel covered with a biofilm. The pH in the anodic areas (tubercles) ranged from 5 to 7 and was always 9.45 at the surface of the cathodic areas. After 1 month of biofilm development, O2 was depleted at the anodic area but could reach the cathodic surface wher…
Abstract A new polymide was synthesized from 3,3′,4,4′‐benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA) and 2,2‐dimethyl‐1,3‐(4‐aminophenoxy)propane (DMDA), and abbreviated to be BTDA‐DMDA. This polymer possesses three relaxation processes which have been observed through dynamic mechanical and dielectric analyses above…

During the spring diatom blooms of 1992 and 1993 in Loch Creran, Scotland, regular water column and sediment samples were collected, examined, and species composition of the phytoplankton determined. Thalassiosira species were found to be a major bloom constituent. Species were identified from specimens cultured from…
Porous carbon–carbon preforms, 10.8 cm o.d.×4.4 cm i.d.×3.0 cm thick have been densified in a one-cycle, 26 h process. The disks are heated by induction, creating an inside-out thermal gradient, and are exposed to cyclopentane vapor in a water-cooled vacuum chamber. Rough-laminar carbon microstructure is obtained; a c…
This paper presents a new method for determination of instantaneous magnetization characteristics of transformers (saturation and hysteresis loop) by taking into account only the RMS values and no-load losses. This model is used to accurately study ferroresonance phenomena in a system of a cable-connected transformer.…
Modifications of the phase-separated surface of polystyrene–polyethyleneoxide (PS-PEO) blend films were carried out by using an atomic force microscope. On PEO, contrary to PS, a scanning of a tip with large forces of 50 nN resulted in a modification of surface and increased the elastic stiffness. The modification was…
An analytical treatment for the sedimentation rate of disordered suspensions is presented in the context of a resistance problem. From the calculation it is confirmed that the lubrication effect is important in contrast to the suggestion by Brady and Durlofsky [J. F. Brady and L. J. Durlofsky, Phys. Fluids 31, 717 (19…

In order to describe the evolution of rolling textures in bcc metals, and particularly to assess the contribution of dislocation slip on {123} glide planes, a Taylor model, which makes use of increasing strain relaxation and considers various types of bcc glide system, is applied. The deformation is simulated in the r…
Two new ferroelectric oligosiloxanes, a cyclic tetramer and a twin, have been synthesized. By a comparative study with their corresponding monomer and side chain polysiloxanes, the influence of oligo- and polymerization on the liquid crystalline and ferroelectric properties have been investigated. Polymerization leads…
Crystal structures of mitochondrial aconitase with alpha-methylisocitrate and with sulfate bound have been solved and refined at 2.0 A resolution with R factors of 18.2 and 16.8%, respectively. The steric factors and conformational effects observed in both new structures support the proposed mechanism for the overall…
