Some accurate glow curve fitting functions for general and mixed order kinetics glow peaks are proposed and discussed. These mathematical expressions are used together with peak search and non-linear minimisation algorithms in order to provide a fast glow curve deconvolution for those materials which cannot be well fi…

Geological interpretations of crystal size distributions (CSDs) depend on understanding the crystal growth laws that generated the distributions. Most descriptions of crystal growth, including a population-balance modeling equation that is widely used in petrology, assume that crystal growth rates at any particular ti…

The crystal structure and the magnetic and electric properties of La0.70Ba0.30MnO3 − γ manganite (0≤γ≤0.30) with a perovskite structure were studied experimentally depending on the concentration of oxygen vacancies. The stoichiometric La0.70Ba0.30MnO3 compound (γ = 0) had cubic unit cell symmetry, which did not change…

Electrically conductive polypyrrole is very attractive for tissue engineering because of its potential to modulate cellular activities through electrical stimulation. However, its in vivo behaviors have not been fully studied. This paper investigates the in vivo biocompatibility and biostability of PPy-coated polyeste…

Thermoelectric properties were investigated for the films of electrically conductive doped polyanilines. The thermoelectric performance, evaluated by thermoelectric figure-of-merit (ZT = T (S2 σ) / κ), of various protonic acid-doped polyaniline bulk films was found to depend on the electrical conductivity σ of the fil…

Renormalized tunnel splitting with a finite distribution in the biaxial spin model for molecular magnets is obtained by taking into account the dipolar interaction of enviromental spins. Oscillation of the resonant tunnel splitting with a transverse magnetic field along the hard axis is smeared by the finite distribut…

We present molecular dynamics computer simulations of filaments of model non-Newtonian liquid stretched in a uniaxial deformation to the point of breaking. The liquid consists of Lennard-Jones monomers bound into chains of 100 monomers by nonlinear springs, and several different constant velocity and constant strain r…

The magnetic field affects the motion of electrons and the orientation of spins in solids, but it is believed to have little impact on the crystal structure. This common perception has been challenged recently by ferromagnetic shape-memory alloys, where the spin-lattice coupling is so strong that crystallographic axes…

The vibrational equivalent of the Anderson tight-binding Hamiltonian has been studied, with particular focus on the properties of the eigenstates at the transition from extended to localized states. The critical energy has been found approximately for several degrees of force-constant disorder using system-size scalin…

We present a simple model that allows hysteresis loops with exchange bias to be reproduced. The model is a modification of the T=0 random field Ising model driven by an external field and with synchronous local relaxation dynamics. The main novelty of the model is that a certain fraction f of the exchange constants be…

Abstract Oxide films grown anodically at the surface of superpure aluminium are used as standards to assess the accuracy of the thickness ( d XPS ) determined using the Beer–Lambert treatment of the Al 2p metal and oxide peak intensities. For the fitting conditions employed, the value of d XPS is found to be very clos…

Crack propagation studies in nanocrystalline Ni samples with mean grain sizes ranging from 5 to 12 nm are reported using atomistic simulations. For all grain sizes pure intergranular fracture is observed. Intergranular fracture is shown to proceed by the coalescence of microvoids formed at the grain boundaries ahead o…

The high temperature strengthening mechanism of previously manufactured 12Cr-ODS ferritic steel claddings was clarified. In the recrystallized 12Cr-2W-0.3Ti-0.24Y2O3-ODS ferritic steel cladding, αY2TiO5 type complex oxide formation was responsible for the drastic reduction of oxide particle size and the resulting shor…

Magneto-optical properties of ZnO:Co and ZnO:Ni films were measured. Magnetization measurements show that some of the films are paramagnetic and others are ferromagnetic. Magnetic circular dichroism clarified that Zn1-xCoxO and Zn1-xNixO included in samples are paramagnetic diluted magnetic semiconductors. Ferromagnet…

We propose a general strategy to develop accurate Force Fields (FF) for metallic systems derived from ab initio quantum mechanical (QM) calculations; we illustrate this approach for tantalum. As input data to the FF we use the linearized augmented plane wave method (LAPW) with the generalized gradient approximation (G…

A brief overview is given of the role of hydrogen trapping in hydrogen management of steel welding. The concept of hydrogen trapping is introduced in conjunction with efforts in reducing hydrogen cracking in steel welding. Appropriate selection of hydrogen traps offers the potential to control the content and distribu…

In spiders soluble proteins are converted to form insoluble silk fibres, stronger than steel. The final fibre product has long been the subject of study; however, little is known about the conversion process in the silk-producing gland of the spider. Here we describe a study of the conversion of the soluble form of th…
