A morphological instability of a mushy layer due to a forced flow in the melt is analysed. The instability is caused by flow induced in the mushy layer by Bernoulli suction at the crests of a sinusoidally perturbed mush–melt interface. The flow in the mushy layer advects heat away from crests which promotes solidifica…

Water sorption and diffusion have been investigated in poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and three poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) copolymers [P(HB-HV)] by means of a Cahn electromicrobalance. Permeability of these samples have been determined using a gravimetric permeation cell. Two experimental setups were…

Polyblends prove to be able to provide more possibilities for tailoring conductive polymer composites in comparison with individual polymer systems. Accordingly, ethylene–vinyl acetate—low-density polyethylene (EVA–LDPE) filled with carbon black (CB) was prepared in this study as a candidate for positive temperature c…

We consider the stability of a rectilinear liquid region whose boundary is composed of a solid cylindrical substrate of arbitrary shape and a free surface whose cross-section, in the absence of gravity, is a circular arc. The liquid–solid contact angle is a prescribed material property. A variational technique, using…

A three-dimensional boundary-integral algorithm for interacting deformable drops in Stokes flow is developed. The algorithm is applicable to very large deformations and extreme cases, including cusped interfaces and drops closely approaching breakup. A new, curvatureless boundary-integral formulation is used, containi…

Accurate predictions of the performance of frequency conversion requires knowledge of the spatial variation of departures from the phase-matching condition in the converter crystals. This variation is caused by processes such as crystal growth and crystal surface finishing. Gravitational sag and mounting configuration…

The multichannel CH + CH reaction was studied, at room temperature, in a low-pressure fast-flow reactor. CH was obtained from the reaction of CHBr 3 with potassium atoms. An intense chemiluminescence from C 2 H(A 2 Π) and a much weaker one from C 2 (d 3 Π g ) were observed. The C 2 H(A 2 Π) emission spectrum appeared…

Nitrogen sorption is a commonly used experimental technique for the characterization of solids that are primarily mesoporous. The standard nitrogen adsorption experiment can also detect pores at the lower end of the macropore range, up to perhaps 3000 or 4000 Å. However, some solids of industrial importance contain ma…
