Rapid cycling solutions are presented for a simple two-bar structure subjected to variable temperature. Three constitutive relationships are considered, nonlinear viscous, strain-hardening and Bailey-Orowan models which describe differing aspects of the creep of metals. It is shown that the solutions for the viscous and strain-hardening relations are essentially similar and possess distinct reference stress histories over ranges of the governing parameters. The presence of recovery in the Bailey-Orowan model causes a distinctly different mode of behavior. Experimental results on a simulated two-bar structure are presented, under conditions where the strain-hardening hypothesis may be expected to be most relevant. Good agreement is obtained between theory and experiment although the presence of anelastic creep, with a short time scale, tends to reduce the effective thermoelastic stresses.

Forming limit is identified to evaluate the formability of sheet metal. The in-plane limit strains of sheets are plotted in a diagram with coordinates of major strain vs. minor strain. TNW700 titanium alloy is a high temperature resistant material. The products made of TNW700 can be used in a long serving period at 500°C, short time at 700°C. In this work, the forming limit of TNW700 will be investigated in theoretical and experimental ways. The experiment to test limit strains was carried out at 750°C under different loading paths. Marciniak – Kuczynski (M-K) model was calculated with Swift constitutive equations to predict the curves of limit strains. The effect of the groove angle on forming limit is that, the same angle on both sides of centerline determines the same FLC, and the limit points shift from left side to right side. The experiment shows that, the formability of TNW700 is not excellent, and it is lower than that of TC4 and TA15 at the same condition. The comparison shows that the curve predicted by M-K model is in a good agreement with that at plane strain, however higher than that in both sides. The fractographic observation shows that the fracture mode of TNW700 is dimple rupture.

An elastic/viscoplastic theory that includes anisotropic strain hardening is presented. The theory is a combination of the elastic/viscoplastic formulation of Perzyna [4] and the anisotropic hardening model for time-independent plasticity of Mroz [6]. The theory is used in the analysis of pressure-shear plate impact experiments on commercially pure alpha titanium. Good agreement between theory and experiment is observed.

Electrolysis in the system Zn/ZnSO4/Zn with gelled electrolyte was followed for short times to allow use of the first term only of the solution to Fick's Second Law for transient conditions. Sufficiently good agreement was found between theory and experiment to confirm that no convection occurred in the gelled electrolyte. Similarly sufficiently good agreement with liquid electrolyte runs confirmed that no convection occurred in parallel plate, horizontal electrodes when the cathode was over the anode. The conductivity of the gelled electrolyte was about 11% lower than the liquid electrolyte.

The paper presents a theoretical and an experimental investigation into the free vibration of three ring-stiffened prolate domes in air and under external water pressure. The theoretical investigation was via the finite element method where a solid fluid mesh was used to model the water surrounding each dome. Good agreement was found between theory and experiment. Both the theory and the experiment found that, as the external water pressure was increased, the resonant frequencies decreased.

This paper describes the results from an investigation of the gas-particle flow trajectories, velocities and pressure distribution in an axial flow turbine stage. A gas-particle flow cascade tunnel and high-speed photographic techniques were used to conduct the experimental investigation. The pressure distribution on the blade surface was measured and compared with the theoretical analysis, the results exhibiting good agreement between the developed theory and experiment.

AbstractWe present an analysis of short time-scale intensity variations in the coronal green line as obtained with high time resolution observations. The observed data can be divided into two groups. The first one shows periodic intensity variations with a period of 5 min. the second one does not show any significant intensity variations. We studied the relation between regions of coronal intensity oscillations and the shape of white-light coronal structures. We found that the coronal green-line oscillations occur mainly in regions where open white-light coronal structures are located.

AbstractThe descriptive scattering parameters, haze and angular distribution functions of textured ZnO:Al transparent conductive oxides with different surface roughness are measured. An approach to determine the scattering parameters of all internal interfaces in p-i-n a-Si:H solar cells deposited on the glass/ZnO:Al substrates is presented. Using the determined scattering parameters as the input parameters of the optical model, a good agreement between the measured and simulated quantum efficiencies of the p-i-n a-Si:H solar cells with different interface roughness is achieved.

ABSTRACTOn a short time scale, Brownian particles undergo a transition from initially ballistic trajectories to diffusive motion. Hydrodynamic interactions with the surrounding fluid lead to a complex time dependence of this transition. We directly probe this transition for colloidal particles by measuring the autocorrelation function of multiply scattered light and observe the effects of the slow power-law decay of the velocity autocorrelation function.

We study the short-time evolutionary history of the well-known contact binary VW Cep. Our analysis is based partly on the numerous UBV lightcurves obtained at Tartu Observatory, IUE spectra, and samples from the published data. Special attention is given to the effects of asymmetry of the light curves. A higher degree of asymmetry outside the eclipses along with the significant displacements of the brightness maxima in respect to the elongation phase is interpreted as evidence that a considerable portion of the flaring source is concentrated close to the neck connecting the components. We discuss the nature of asymmetry in terms of possible mass exchange and the flare activity and compare the results of our model computations with the record of orbital period variations over the last 60 years.
