The recrystallization mechanisms in high purity Ag crystals with C{112}<111> initial orientation, deformed by channel-die compression, have been studied by local orientation measurements using TEM and SEM/EBSD. The microtexture analysis clearly indicates the importance of a simple relation of 25-40o (<111> or <112>) type, which is frequently observed during the early stages of recrystallization between isolated nuclei of uniform orientation and one of the as-deformed groups of components. As recrystallization proceeds, recrystallization twinning increases radically. In C-oriented silver single crystals this latter mechanism also plays a decisive role in the formation of the cube orientation.

A numerical method based on the one-way coupling using the Jeffery equation is presented. The influence of the inlet velocity and the initial orientation on the evolution of fiber orientation is investigated. It is observed that the rotation mainly contributes to the pressure rise, and the flow structure is not obviously altered. Due to the one-way coupling, the effects of the inlet velocity and the rotating rate are insignificant.

Pigeons were made anosmic by unilateral treatment of their olfactory mucosa with a zinc sulphate solution and by plugging the contralateral nostril. In a series of releases at unfamiliar sites, 55&shy;79 km from the home loft, the experimental birds' homing behaviour was compared with that of two control groups: unmanipulated control birds, and birds subjected to unilateral zinc sulphate treatment and equipped with an ipsilateral nasal plug. The experimental pigeons exhibited homing behaviour &shy; in terms of both homeward initial orientation and homing performance &shy; significantly poorer than that of both unmanipulated and treated control pigeons. In addition, the homing behaviour of the treated controls turned out to be only slightly, and not significantly, poorer than that of the unmanipulated birds. The results show that the impaired homing capabilities of the zinc-sulphate-treated birds are due to the lack of navigational information and not to non-specific brain damage caused by the experimental treatment.

The objective of the paper is to determine the stable mechanical equilibrium states of an oblate capsule subjected to a simple shear flow, by positioning its revolution axis initially off the shear plane. We consider an oblate capsule with a strain-hardening membrane and investigate the influence of the initial orientation, capsule aspect ratio$a/b$, viscosity ratio${\it\lambda}$between the internal and external fluids and the capillary number$Ca$which compares the viscous to the elastic forces. A numerical model coupling the finite element and boundary integral methods is used to solve the three-dimensional fluid–structure interaction problem. For any initial orientation, the capsule converges towards the same mechanical equilibrium state, which is only a function of the capillary number and viscosity ratio. For$a/b=0.5$, only four regimes are stable when${\it\lambda}=1$: tumbling and swinging in the low and medium$Ca$range ($Ca\lesssim 1$), regimes for which the capsule revolution axis is contained within the shear plane; then wobbling during which the capsule experiences precession around the vorticity axis; and finally rolling along the vorticity axis at high capillary numbers. When${\it\lambda}$is increased, the tumbling-to-swinging transition occurs for higher$Ca$; the wobbling regime takes place at lower$Ca$values and within a narrower$Ca$range. For${\it\lambda}\gtrsim 3$, the swinging regime completely disappears, which indicates that the stable equilibrium states are mainly the tumbling and rolling regimes at higher viscosity ratios. We finally show that the$Ca$–${\it\lambda}$phase diagram is qualitatively similar for higher aspect ratio. Only the$Ca$-range over which wobbling is stable increases with$a/b$, restricting the stability ranges of in- and out-of-plane motions, although this phenomenon is mainly visible for viscosity ratios larger than 1.
