It is shown that the hydrodynamic form of nonlinear logarithmic Schrödinger equation (NLSE), in 3 + 1 dimensions, describes a solitonic flow of an isothermal, inviscid, compressible, capillary (Korteweg) fluid. This formulation corresponds to the so-called diffuse interface models used in hydrodynamics for two-phase f…

The synthesis is described of four new chiral liquid crystalline monomers (M2–M5 ) and their corresponding side‐chain homopolysiloxanes (P2–P5 ) containing menthyl groups. Chemical structures were characterised using FT‐IR or 1H NMR spectra, and specific optical rotations were evaluated with a polarimeter. The phase b…

The capillary pressure and liquid wicking in fibrous nonwoven materials depend on the structural arrangement of fibers in three dimensions, which is influenced by the method and conditions used to manufacture the material. By adapting the hydraulic radius mechanism and drag force theory, a model is established for pre…

All characterized major ampullate silks from orb-web weaving spiders are composites of primarily two different proteins: MaSp1 and MaSp2. The conserved association of MaSp1 and MaSp2 in these spider species, the highly conserved amino acid motifs, and variable ratios of MaSp1 to MaSp2 demonstrate the importance of bot…

Clay samples of hydrothermal origin from several oceanic spreading centers were studied using XRD, microprobe, infrared, and thermal analysis. They are talc, smectite, and mixed-layer talc-smectite (T-S) where the talc layers have several degrees of crystalline order. The smectite is trioctahedral in most cases, but t…

The high work hardening rate and ductility of high manganese austenitic steels is mainly attributed to the strong twinning induced plasticity (TWIP) effect found in the material. With a low stacking fault energy, mechanical twinning acts as a competitive mechanism to the more common dislocation glide. In order to unde…
