In the present study, an evolution equation for the Cauchy stress tensor is proposed to take elastic, viscous and plastic characteristics of complex fluids simultaneously into account. In particular, hypoplasticity is incorporated to account for the plastic features. The stress model is applied to investigate time-dep…

The yield stresses of five samples (two highly concentrated emulsions, two Kaolin dispersions and mayonnaise) were determined in two ways. In one case, steady shear experiments were performed over a range of incrementally decreasing shear rates. The resulting flow curves, plotted as shear stress against shear rate, cl…

Water soluble polymers such as cellulosic or starch ethers are often included in the mix-design of Self Compacting Concretes (SCCs) in order to improve their stability and robustness. The stability, including resistance to liquid-solid separation and sedimentation, may be attributed to the increase of the viscosity of…

Abstract The degree of preferred orientation of mineral grains in powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) samples prepared by standard techniques has been evaluated by means of a correction model implemented in the Rietveld program, BGMN. It is demonstrated that neither front- nor side-loading of mineral powders obtained by we…

The presence of the Sb5+ ion increased the piezoelectric properties of the (Na0.5K0.5)NbO3 (NKN) ceramics by enhancing the poling state as identified by the increased phase angle (θ). The increased θ value was explained by the increased ferroelectricity due to the large electronegativity of the Sb5+ ion and the increa…

Pulsewidth-modulated (PWM) inverters are used more and more to operate electrical machines and to interface renewable energy systems with the utility grid. However, there are abundant high-frequency harmonics in the output voltage of a PWM inverter, which increase the iron losses and result in derating of the machine…

Hexagonal Yb/Er or Yb/Ho co-doped LaF(3) nanoplates with uniform morphology have been synthesized with an average diameter of ∼15 nm. It was found that the coating reagent, hydrothermal temperature and time play critical roles in the control of the shape of the final products. A possible growth mechanism including ion…

Reverse atom transfer radical polymerization was successfully used for the first time to synthesis tri-block copolymers. Poly (methyl methacrylate)-block-polyurethane-block-poly (methyl methacrylate) tri-block copolymers were synthesized using tetraphenylethane-based polyurethane as a macroiniferter, copper(II) halide…

High performance refractometry has been proven to be a useful tool to elucidate the isothermal curing process of nanocomposites. As a model system an amine-hardening epoxy filled with non-surface-treated alumina nanoparticles was selected. The tremendous resolution of this experimental technique is used to study morph…
