And Behavior

High-pressure oxidation of silicon (HIPOX) is one of various techniques used for electrical-isolation of semiconductor-devices on silicon substrates. Other techniques have included local-oxidation of silicon (LOCOS), poly-buffered LOCOS, deep-trench isolation and separation of silicon by implanted oxygen (SIMOX). Reliable use of HIPOX for device-isolation requires an understanding of the behavior of the materials and structures being used and their interactions under different processing conditions. The effect of HIPOX-related stresses in the structures is of interest because structuraldefects, if formed, could electrically degrade devices.This investigation was performed to study the origin and behavior of defects in recessed HIPOX (RHIPOX) structures. The structures were exposed to a boron implant. Samples consisted of (i) RHlPOX'ed strip exposed to a boron implant, (ii) recessed strip prior to HIPOX, but exposed to a boron implant, (iii) test-pad prior to HIPOX, (iv) HIPOX'ed region away from R-HIPOX edge. Cross-section TEM specimens were prepared in the <110> substrate-geometry.

Structural And Electronic Properties

The structural and electronic properties of BN(5, 5) and C(5, 5) nanotubes under pressure are studied by using first principles calculations. In our study range, BN(5, 5) undergoes obvious elliptical distortion, while for C(5, 5) the cross section first becomes an ellipse and then, under further pressure, is flattened. The band gap of BN(5, 5) decreases with increasing pressure, which is inverse to that of zinc blende BN, whereas for C(5, 5) the metallicity is always preserved under high pressure. The population of charge density indicates that intertube bonding is formed under pressure. We also find that BN(5, 5) may collapse, and a new polymer material based on C(5, 5) is formed by applying pressure.

The Stability

Labuntsovite-Fe, an Fe-dominant member of the labuntsovite subgroup, was first discovered in the Khibiny alkaline massif on Mt Kukisvumchorr [Khomyakov et al. (2001). Zap. Vseross. Mineral. Oba, 130, 36–45]. However, no data are published about the crystal structure of this mineral. Labuntsovite-Fe from a peralkaline pegmatite located on Mt Nyorkpakhk, in the Khibiny alkaline complex, Kola Peninsula, Russia, has been investigated by means of electron microprobe analyses, single-crystal X-ray structure refinement, and IR and Raman spectroscopies. Monoclinic unit-cell parameters of labuntsovite-Fe are: a = 14.2584 (4), b = 13.7541 (6), c = 7.7770 (2) Å, β = 116.893 (3)°; V = 1360.22 (9) Å3; space group C2/m. The structure was refined to final R 1 = 0.0467, wR 2 = 0.0715 for 3202 reflections [I > 3σ(I)]. The refined crystal chemical formula is (Z = 2): Na2K2Ba0.7[(Fe0.5Ti0.1Mg0.05)(H2O)1.3]{[Ti2(Ti1.9Nb0.1)(O,OH)4][Si4O12]2}·4H2O. The high-pressure in situ single-crystal X-ray diffraction study of the labuntsovite-Fe has been carried out in a diamond anvil cell. The labuntsovite-type structure is stable up to 23 GPa and phase transitions are not observed. Calculations using the BM3 equation of state resulted in the bulk modulus K = 72 (2) GPa, K′0 = 3.7 (2) and V 0 = 1363 (2) Å3. Compressing of the heteropolyhedral zeolite-like framework leads to the deformation of main structural units. Octahedral rods show the gradual increase of distortion and the wave-like character of rods becomes more distinct. Rod deformations result in the distortion of the silicon–oxygen ring which is not equal in different directions. Structural channels are characterized by a different ellipticity–pressure relationship: the cross-section of the largest channel I and channel II demonstrates the stability of the geometrical characteristics which practically do not depend on pressure: ∊channel I ≃ 0.85 (4) (cross-section is rather regular) and ∊channel II ≃ 0.52 (2) within the whole pressure range. However, channel III is characterized by the increasing of ellipticity with pressure (∊ = 0.40 → 0.10).

Creep And Shrinkage

The Northumberland Strait at the Atlantic coast of Canada will be crossed by a 13 km bridge. The major part of the superstructure will consist of 44 spans, each of length 250 m and a box cross section of variable depth 4.5–14 m. The superstructure, divided into units of maximum length 192 m, will be produced in a yard by segmental casting and multistage prestressing. These units will be assembled at their final position on top of the piers. Each pier is composed of two pieces, also produced in the yard and connected on site by cast in situ concrete. This paper describes selected analysis problems and their solutions employed in the structural design. The analysis problems are concerned with (i) dynamic response to ice forces; (ii) movements of pier footings and stiffness of the subgrade; (iii) variation of stresses and deformations during construction and during the life of the structure, considering the effects of creep and shrinkage of concrete and relaxation of the prestressed steel; and (iv) thermal stresses. Key words: bridges, concrete, creep, prestress relaxation, segmental construction, shrinkage, strait crossing.

Abstract The compatibility between the needed structural designed dimensions of the irrigation works and the dimensions of the water stream or the canal in which the irrigation work will be located has a great importance from more than one point of view. As it is well known, the main aim of the designer of such works is to reach the optimum design for maximum performance efficiency with economical cost, and minimize negative technical impacts that may be harmful to the safety of the whole work. Since the complete suitability between the obtained designed dimensions of the different construction elements of the work, and the original properties and dimensions of the canal in which the work will be constructed, is rarely occurring. The designer always has to make some changes in the original engineering properties and dimensions of canals, such as bed width, bed level, and/or inside side slope, to reach the needed suitable compatibility between the structural design and the natural original canal cross section. For the economical purposes, the design always needs less width of the work, than the width of the bed of the original stream cross section, so a contraction may be needed where the work will be constructed; the literature indicated that, such a contraction must not be less than 0.6 of the original bed width. That contraction, of course, has a direct impact on the different hydraulic parameters, such as water depth, velocity, and flow regime in the location of the work. Changes of such hydraulic parameters may exceed their safe permissible values, and so the whole structure may face some dangerous situations, which must be overcome. In this paper, we present a technical survey of the previous research concerning canal width contraction, with the needed technical comments, and comparisons as a logical approach for a master-thesis under the same title.

Load Conditions

A ceramic combustor for a 1500°C, 20 MW class industrial gas turbine was developed and tested. This combustor has a hybrid ceramic/metal structure. To improve the durability of the combustor, the ceramic parts were made of silicon carbide (SiC), which has excellent oxidation resistance under high-temperature conditions as compared to silicon nitride (Si3N4), although the fracture toughness of SiC is lower than that of Si3N4. Structural improvements to allow the use of materials with low fracture toughness were made to the fastening structure of the ceramic parts. Also, the combustion design of the combustor was improved. Combustor tests using low-Btu gaseous fuel of a composition that simulated coal gas were carried out under high pressure. The test results demonstrated that the structural improvements were effective because the ceramic parts exhibited no damage even in the fuel cutoff tests from rated load conditions. It also indicated that the combustion efficiency was almost 100 percent even under part-load conditions.

Toroidal Shells

The paper outlines the prospects for the use of composite toroidal high-pressure cylinders for the breathing apparatus of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, fire brigades, industrial workers, which are more ergonomic in comparison with their cylindrical counterparts. Relying on the analytical solution of the equilibrium equations, we determined the shape of the cross-section of toroidal shells reinforced along the meridians and representing intersecting loop-like curves that form an infinitely long corrugated pipe. The study introduces a solution for a toroidal composite pressure vessel formed by the intersection of the upper and lower branches of the shell, reinforced along the meridians, and a profiled ring layer of filaments installed at the point of their intersection. The parameters of the toroidal uniformly stressed pressure vessel shell made by ring and meridian filament winding are calculated.
