Shear moduli were determined for chemically polymerized and solvent cast regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) films, using thickness shear mode acoustic wave resonators. The results are strikingly different to those for electropolymerized regiorandom poly(3-hexylthiophene) films. The time scale of the measurement was v…

We present an extension to our earlier proposed statistical model [Phys. Rev. B 62, 15628 (2002)] for studying migration-assisted homogeneous upconversion in erbium-doped fibers. The extension takes into account minimum proximity distance between erbium ions randomly distributed in the host material and the nonuniform…

Abstract Inorganic–organic hybrid materials were prepared with a cycloaliphatic epoxide adduct of linseed oil with tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) oligomers via a cationic UV‐curing process. The TEOS oligomers were prepared in the presence of water and ethanol with hydrochloric acid as a catalyst. The TEOS oligomers we…

Hydrogen permeation through four steel plates of varying thickness was achieved by simultaneously exposing one face of each plate to standard, sour corrosive conditions for periods of several days. A single representative structural steel had been used to mill the plates. The hydrogen flux at the opposing plate faces…

Abstract The effect of montmorillonite (Cloisite 6A) on the bulk polymerization of styrene initiated by benzoyl peroxide (BPO) was studied by the dilatometric determination of the polymerization rates. The bulk polymerization rates increased as the montmorillonite input quantity increased. The effect became greater wh…

The extended LEPS of O(2)-Cu single crystal plane systems is constructed by means of 5-MP (the 5-parameter Morse potential). Both the adsorption and dissociation of O(2) on Cu low-index surfaces are investigated with extended LEPS in detail. All critical characteristics of the system that we obtain, such as adsorption…

The finding that ordered mesostructured silica (OMS) matrixes can stabilize guest nanocrystals has transformed the preparation of advanced catalytic materials. Today, it is possible to tailor the materials in such a way that high loading of guest catalytic phases (CPs) may be achieved at different locations in the hos…

When high strength steels absorb hydrogen during corrosion of a sacrificial coating they can fail by a process termed hydrogen re-embrittlement. This paper compares the levels of re-embrittlement caused by coatings of electroplated cadmium and two possible alternative aluminium based coatings. Slow strain rate tests w…

Abstract Self‐assembled ordered structures composed of block copolymers are simulated by molecular dynamics under stress‐free conditions and under shear. We address several methodological points. The system must be allowed to adjust its size to accommodate natural periods of self‐assembled structures. In addition, the…

We use molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the nucleation of calcite crystals on self-assembled monolayers. We show how the presence of bicarbonate ions adsorbed on the monolayer surface can both aid nucleation and control the orientation of the growth of the crystal. Using a simple model of the nucleation p…

We present a differential theory for solving Maxwell equations in cylindrical coordinates, projecting them onto a Fourier-Bessel basis. Numerical calculations require the truncation of that basis, so that correct rules of factorization have to be used. The convergence of the method is studied for different cases of di…
