Lithium-based ceramics have been recognized as promising tritium breeding-materials for D-T fusion reactor blankets. Lithium silicates, Li4SiO4 and Li2SiO3, are recommended by many ITER research teams as the first selection for the solid tritium breeder. The solid-state reaction method is the most important way to syn…

The Lipton Glicksman Kurz (LGK) growth model is commonly used to predict growth rates for equiaxed dendrites in solidifying mushy zones. However, the original LGK method treats an isolated dendrite growing in an infinite volume of liquid. In an equiaxed mushy zone, with multiple nucleation events, thermal and solutal…

Second harmonic generation (SHG) spectrometry has been recently applied to investigate the structure of proteins and sugars (collagen, myosin, starch, etc.). The interpretation of experimental data at the molecular length-scale remains often qualitative because of the difficulty to model the SHG signal of such large m…

The majority of the research on cavitation luminescence has focused on the sonoluminescence or chemiluminescence generated by cavitation induced through ultrasound, with a lesser body of work on the luminescence induced by laser- or spark-induced cavitation. In such circumstances, the cavitation is generated in liquid…

Let $X subset V$ be a set of vertices in a graph $G = (V, E)$. The boundary $B(X)$ of $X$ is defined to be the set of vertices in $V-X$ dominated by vertices in $X$, that is, $B(X) = (V-X) cap N(X)$. The differential $ partial(X)$ of $X$ equals the value $ partial(X) = |B(X)| - |X|$. The differential of a graph $G$ is…

In general, deformation behavior of magnesium in compression is different from tensile. To investigate deformation behavior of magnesium single crystals by non-basal slips and twins, c-axis compression and a-axis tension tests were performed in the range of 77K-573K. The crystals were yielded by second order pyramidal…
