AbstractThere is a variety of new polarization optics that can be employed for polarimetry and for polarization control. Many are enabled by new materials including polymers and liquid crystals. We survey here these and other relatively new devices and components available commercially that open new possibilities for astronomers.

Lyotropic liquid crystals from colloidal particles have been known for more than a century, but have attracted a revived interest over the last few years. This is due to the developments in nanoscience and nanotechnology, where the liquid crystal order can be exploited to orient and reorient the anisotropic colloids, thus enabling, increasing and switching the preferential properties of the nanoparticles. In particular, carbon-based colloids like carbon nanotubes and graphene/graphene–oxide have increasingly been studied with respect to their lyotropic liquid crystalline properties over the recent years. We critically review aspects of lyotropic graphene oxide liquid crystal with respect to properties and behavior which seem to be generally established, but also discuss those effects that are largely unfamiliar so far, or as of yet of controversial experimental or theoretical outcome.


Ferrocement is one of the most inexpensive and alternative construction techniques. The beauty of this materials attracts in analyzing and designing the ferrocement (F.C.) silo. This has encouraged the search for new materials like F.C. to provide an alternative to reinforced concrete. During last two decades, many attempts have been made to develop computational models for analysis of silos particularly in steel and reinforced cement concrete. However, very less work is reported on scientific development of analysis of F.C. silo. This indicates that there is a need to continue with more focus and detailed research on F.C. silo. There is a need to analyze F.C. silo for various parametric findings related to pressure and behavior of silo in tension, compression and flexure. Present paper reports new aspects of analysis of silo. The parametric study of stresses developed in wall of F.C. silo for different H/D ratio, thickness and storage capacity is done with help of commercial ANSYS version R14.5.
