Using phase field methods, we introduce a penalty formulation for restricting the support of solutions of the hydrodynamic Poisson-Nernst-Plank equations to evolving subregions of the domain. The formulation is derived through variational principles from a free energy involving the phase field and electrostatic energy…

Yellow-emitting a-SiAlON:Eu2+ phosphors were synthesized by the gas reduction and nitridation of a homogeneous oxide precursor in a CaO–Al2O3–SiO2–Eu2O3 system at 1400–1450 °C using an NH3–CH4 mixture gas as a reduction–nitridation agent. The precursor was prepared by a sol–gel process using a low-cost nitrate, tetrae…

Shape memory properties and martensitic transformation of Ti-Nb-Pt alloys were investigated in order to develop Ni-free biomedical superelastic alloys. The effect of Pt addition on the transformation strain was investigated by measuring the lattice constants of the parent and martensite phases of Ti-Nb-Pt alloys. The…

The low-temperature transition in the Zn–Sc 1/1 cubic approximant, reported by Tamura et al. [Phys. Rev. B 71 0902203 (2005)], has been confirmed by the following experimental evidence: (1) anomaly in temperature dependence of electrical resistivity at approximately 153 K, and (2) appearance of weak superlattice refle…

The most common fabrication technique of porous silicon (PS) is electrochemical etching of a crystalline silicon wafer in a hydrofluoric (HF) acid-based solution. The electrochemical process allows for precise control of the properties of PS such as thickness of the porous layer, porosity, and average pore diameter. T…

Two dispersion models of disordered solids, one parameterizing density of states (PDOS) and the other parameterizing joint density of states (PJDOS), are presented. Using these models, not only the complex dielectric function of the materials, but also some information about their electronic structure can be obtained.…

In this project, polyester microdenier and normal denier fibres and yarns were used to produce knitted fabrics. Microfibre fabrics showed excellent drapeability. The wicking behaviour of the microfibre fabrics was found to be better than that of the normal denier fabric. The water drop absorbency, drying rate and tota…

Three water-borne polyurethane dispersions were synthesised by the pre-polymer mixing process. Different hard segment contents in the polyurethanes were obtained by varying the diisocyanate/macroglycol (NCO/OH) molar ratio. A decrease in the NCO/OH ratio produced an increase in the mean particle size and in the pre-po…
