This study uses the torsional split-Hopkinson bar to investigate the dynamic shear deformation and fracture behaviour of Ti–6Al–4V alloy under strain rates of 1800, 2300, and 2800 s −1 at temperatures ranging from −100 to 300 °C. It is found that both the strain rate and the temperature have a strong influence on the…

Copper interconnect electromigration (EM) was examined in various structures and three low- k materials ( k =2.65–3.6) using advanced back-end-of-line (BEOL) technology. Various structures for testing were designed to identify the EM failure modes, and extensive failure analysis was carried out to reveal failure in th…

SOFC-MGT hybrid power plants are a very attractive near term option, as they achieve efficiencies of over 60% even for small power outputs (200-400kW). The SOFC hybrid systems currently developed are fuelled with natural gas, which is reformed inside the same stack at about 800-900°C. However, the use of alternative f…

In this paper, the response of sandwich panels (Glass/Epoxy/PU Foam) to projectile impact in the velocity range of 30—100 m/s was studied. Three sets of sandwich plates (WRM/Epoxy/Foam, CSM/Epoxy/Foam, and WRM/CSM/Epoxy/Foam) were used. A piston-type gas gun setup was used to accelerate a cylindro-conical mild steel p…

The interaction of water-soluble cationic 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4- N -methyl pyridyl) porphyrin (H 2 TMPyP4) with some mono-and polynucleotides is studied by time-resolved and steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy, as well as by steady-state absorption spectroscopy. The fluorescence decay kinetics are analyzed by recon…

The adhesion of polyvinylamine to wet cellulose was significantly enhanced by the presence of pendant phenylboronic acid groups. It is proposed that adhesion results from boronate ester formation with cellulose at pH > 8. Experiments with phenol derivatized polyvinylamine gave low adhesion supporting the fact that the…

The photoinduced non-linear optics effects in the TEA-CoCl 2 Br 2 nanocrystallites incorporated into the photopolymer olygoetheracrylate matrices were investigated. The temperature dependence of the photoinduced second harmonic generation demonstrates a remarkable dependence on temperature near the phase transitions.…

Abstract The synthesis of polystyrene chains covalently bound to the surface of cross‐linked rubber particles from recycled tires (ground tire rubber, GTR) was investigated via free radical polymerization in situ by using azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) and dibenzoyl peroxide (BPO) as initiators. Indeed, the graft polym…

Abstract The application of the generic name Fragilaria has remained uncertain because the identity of the lectotype, Conferva pectinalis O. F. Müll., is unknown. Traditionally Fragilaria capucina Desm. has been considered a synonym of F. pectinalis, although this synonymy has not been confirmed. Application of the ge…
