Part I of this series presented a new model for predicting the flow resistance of monofilament fabrics. In this part, the model is applied to the flow resistance of multi filament fabrics. Experiments show that flow resistance in multifilament fabrics can be modeled in general, but it appears that the method is not su…
We investigate the flow of a suspension through a constriction by means of the mesoscopic technique known as dissipative particle dynamics (DPD). The dispersed phase was modeled as a set of soft spheres interacting through a conservative force while suspended and continuum phases interact via DPD forces. It is shown t…
Abstract A series of aromatic polyimides composed of well‐defined conjugation units were synthesized form 5,5′‐bis(4‐aminophenyl)‐2,2′‐bifuryl (PFDA) and 2,2′‐bis(furyl) benzidine (FurylBZ) with various dianhydrides. The synthesized polyimides emit blue to green light with a quantum yield of 7.3–14.9%, depending on th…
In order to obtain a better understanding of the mechanism of stress corrosion cracking, an improved microsampling technique was applied to measurements of the local solution chemistry at the growing tip of a stress corrosion crack. Efforts were made to improve the microsampling technique to obtain more accurate infor…
In transforming fabrics into garment it is necessary to know, besides the manner of processing, the behaviour of the fabric in particular manufacturing processes. It is necessary to define why and how fabrics behave in a particular way when exposed to various strains. The answers to these questions are obtained by inv…
Abstract Differentiating flax and hemp is a long-time analytical problem, which is becoming more and more relevant with the wider loading of bast fibres. Flax and hemp are very similar fibres in all aspects, and their differentiation is often controversial. In this work, the literature is researched for the classic me…
The purpose of this work is to show the correlation between the fractal dimension, D, and mechanical properties such as work of fracture, gammawof, and fracture toughness, K Ic. Alumina-mullite-zirconia composites were characterized by the slit-island method, SIM, to obtain values of D and its fractional part, D*. The…
A monolithic SiC ceramic and two SiC–C composite ceramics containing 10 and 20 vol% graphite were fully densified with Al 4 C 3 and B 4 C as additives. The tribological properties of these materials were evaluated by sliding against sintered silicon carbide under dry conditions using two tribometers, block‐on‐ring and…
The nature of physical phenomena in ferroelectric relaxors, i.e., ferroelectrics undergoing smeared phase transitions, is discussed. These phenomena are closely related to the dynamics of polar regions (PRs), in which thermal fluctuations cause relaxation processes that control the crystal properties. The PRs interact…
Abstract Maleic anhydride grafted low isotactic homopolypropylene elastomer (LiPP‐g‐MAH) is used as a compatibilizer in the melting mixing of polypropylene (PP) and clay. The microstructures of the composites of PP/clay (PPCN) are investigated using a wide‐angle X‐ray diffractometer (WAXD) and transmission electron mi…
The aim of this review is to present a coherent treatment of the fundamental aspects of the science that underpins current technological practices, and future advances, in the stabilisation of synthetic organic polymers. Aspects of polymer oxidation are introduced first before discussing the role of antioxidants, with…
A series of cyano-bridged binuclear mixed valence complexes of the general formula M-Ru(III)(NH(3))(4)pyCOOH [pyCOOH = isonicotinic acid; M = cis-Ru(bpy)(2)(CN)(2), 1 (bpy = 2,2' bipyridine); trans-Ru(py)(4)(CN)(2), 2 (py = pyridine); [Ru(CN)(6)](4)(-), 3; [Fe(CN)(6)](4)(-), 4] have been prepared and anchored through…
Abstract The effect of interface modification on the mechanical (tensile, impact and flexural) properties of polystyrene–sisal fiber composites was investigated. The interface modification was performed by treatment of sisal fibers with benzoyl chloride, polystyrene maleic anhydride (PSMA), toluene diisocyanate (TDI),…
A bending creep test is proposed for measuring the change in viscosity of a porous material during densification. Equations, based on simple beam deflection theory, were derived to obtain the viscosity from a series of loading experiments using rectangular samples of different densities. By measuring the deflection in…
Tracking control of shape memory alloy (SMA) actuators is essential in many applications such as vibration controls. Due to the hysteresis, an inherent nonlinear phenomenon associated with SMAs, open-loop control design has proven inadequate for tracking control of these actuators. Aimed at eliminating the position se…
Abstract Pre‐irradiation grafting of styrene/divinylbenzene (DVB) onto poly(tetrafluoroethylene‐ co ‐hexafluoropropylene) (FEP) films was studied with respect to the influence of solvent. Particularly favorable grafting conditions with long radical lifetimes and reasonably high polymerization rates were achieved with…
A dynamic model for predicting DC arc behavior and critical flashover voltage of ice-covered insulating surfaces is presented. The model takes into consideration insulating geometry, pre-contamination level, and characteristics of ice layers. Assuming arc behavior as a time dependant impedance, it is possible to deter…
This investigation sets out to mimic protein-crystal interaction during biomineralization with the use of artificial proteins (dendrimers). It is hypothesized that these interactions depend on the surface charge of hydroxyapatite crystals. This was investigated with the use of dendrimers with capped surfaces of differ…
By reacting Keggin-type polyoxometalate cluster anions H(2)W(12)O(40)(6)(-) (metatungstate) or Co(II)W(12)O(40)(6)(-) (tungstocobaltate) with the large aluminum cluster polycation [Al(30)O(8)(OH)(56)(H(2)O)(26)](18+), Keggin ion based molecular ionic compounds [delta-Al(13)O(4)(OH)(24)(H(2)O)(12)][XW(12)O(40)](OH).nH(…
Abstract A study on the extrusion of microcellular polystyrene foams at different foaming temperatures was carried out using CO 2 as the foaming agent. The contraction flow in the extrusion die was simulated with FLUENT computational fluid dynamics code at two temperatures (150°C and 175°C) to predict pressure and tem…
