The propagation characteristics of the vibration power flow in a submerged cylindrical shell with joint discontinuity are investigated by the wave propagation approach. The motion of the cylindrical shell and the pressure field in fluid are described by the Flügge shell theory and the Helmholtz equation, respectively. And the dynamic equations of the system are obtained by the coupling between the shell and the fluid. Then, an analysis of the vibration power flow transmission and reflection at the joint discontinuity is presented and the power flow transmission ratio Tr through the joint discontinuity is studied. Results show that the joint discontinuity can reduce the mean value of the Tr and thus, reduce the energy level of the transmitted vibration, as it has the effect of partially reflecting some of the incident wave with relations to its physical and geometric parameters. The influences of the fluid and the material damping of the joint discontinuity are also studied.

Purpose. The aim of this study is to correlate the intraocular pressure (IOP) change with the acoustic impedance of the cornea, in order to propose a noncontact and noninvasive method for IOP monitoring.Methods and Materials. A highly focused transducer (frequency 47-MHz; bandwidth 62%) was made to measure the echo from the anterior and posterior surfaces of intact porcine eyes, respectively. A multilayered transmission and reflection model was used to calculate the acoustic impedance. The linear relationship between acoustic impedance and intraocular pressure was analyzed by statistical method.Result.During pressure elevation from 10 mm Hg to 50 mm Hg, the mean acoustic impedance of the posterior cornea increased from 1.5393 to 1.5698 MRayl, which showed a strong linear correlation (R=0.9849;P=0.0022). Meanwhile, the mean value of the anterior cornea increased from 1.5399 to 1.5519 MRayl, and a less significant correlation was observed (R=0.7378;P=0.0025).Conclusion. This study revealed a linear correlation between intraocular pressure and acoustic impedance of the cornea, thus demonstrating a potentially important method to noninvasively measure the intraocular pressure in vivo.

The vibration power flow in a submerged infinite constrained layer damping (CLD) cylindrical shell is studied in the present paper using the wave propagation approach. Dynamic equations of the shell are derived with the Hamilton principle in conjunction with the Donnell shell assumptions. Besides, the pressure field in the fluid is described by the Helmholtz equation and the damping characteristics are considered with the complex modulus method. Then, the shell-fluid coupling dynamic equations are obtained by using the coupling between the shell and the fluid. Vibration power flows inputted to the coupled system and transmitted along the shell axial direction are both studied. Results show that input power flow varies with driving frequency and circumferential mode order, and the constrained damping layer will restrict the exciting force inputting power flow into the shell, especially for a thicker viscoelastic layer, a thicker or stiffer constraining layer (CL), and a higher circumferential mode order. Cut-off frequencies do not exist in the CLD cylindrical shell so that the exciting force can input power flow into the shell at any frequency and for any circumferential mode order. The power flow transmitted in the CLD cylindrical shell exhibits an exponential decay form along its axial direction, which indicates that the constrained damping layer has a good damping effect especially at middle or high frequencies.

Vibration Power Flow

In the previous investigations of the vibroacoustic characteristics of a submerged cylindrical shell in a flow field, the fluid viscosity was usually ignored. In this paper, the effect of fluid viscosity on the characteristics of vibration power flow in an infinite circular cylindrical shell immersed in a viscous acoustic medium is studied. Flügge’s thin shell theory for an isotropic, elastic, and thin cylindrical shell is employed to obtain the motion equations of the structure under circumferential-distributed line force. Together with the wave equations for the viscous flow field as well as continuity conditions at the interface, the vibroacoustic equation of motion in the coupled system is derived. Numerical analysis based on the additional-damping numerical integral method and ten-point Gaussian integral method is conducted to solve the vibroacoustic coupling equation with varying levels of viscosity. Then, the variation of the input power flow against the nondimensional axial wave number in the coupled system with different circumferential mode numbers is discussed in detail. It is found that the influence of fluid viscosity on the vibroacoustic coupled system is mainly concentrated in the low-frequency band, which is shown as the increase of the crest number and amplitude of the input power flow curves.

The characteristics of vibrational power flow in an infinite laminated composite cylindrical shell filled with fluid excited by a circumferential line cosine harmonic force are investigated using wave propagation approach. The harmonic motions of the shell and the fluid filled in the shell are described by Love shell theory and acoustic wave equation, respectively. Under the driving force, the vibrational power flow input into the coupled system and the transmission of the power flow carried by different internal forces (moments) of the shell in the axial direction are established. Numerical computations are implemented to investigate the vibrational power flow input and its propagation. It is found that characteristics of the vibrational power flow vary with different circumferential mode orders and frequencies, and the presence of fluid in the shell significantly affects the vibration of the shell structure. Additionally, parametric investigations are carried out to study the effects of the fiber orientation, modulus ratio E11/E22, and thickness-to-radius parameter h/R on input power into the coupled system and propagation power along the shell axial direction. This work will provide some guidance for the vibration control of the laminated composite cylindrical shell.

Pd-Ce alloys exhibit various anomalies in physical properties due to mixed valences of Ce, and the anomalies are thought to be strongly related with the crystal structures. Since Pd and Ce are both heavy elements, relative magnitudes of (fcc-fpd) are so small compared with <f> that superlattice reflections, even if any, sometimes cannot be detected in conventional x-ray powder patterns, where fee and fpd are atomic scattering factors of Ce and Pd, and <f> the mean value in the crystal. However, superlattices in Pd-Ce alloys can be analyzed by electron microscopy, thanks to the high detectability of electron diffraction. In this work, we investigated modulated superstructures in alloys with 12.5 and 15.0 at.%Ce.Ingots of Pd-Ce alloys were prepared in an arc furnace under atmosphere of ultra high purity argon. The disc specimens cut out from the ingots were heat-treated in vacuum and electrothinned to electron transparency by a jet method.

The relative partition coefficients of krypton and xenon, and the regional blood flow in 27 superficial malignant tumour nodules in 22 patients with diagnosed tumours were measured using the 85mKr- and 133Xe-clearance method. In order to minimize the effect of biological variables on the measurements the radionuclides were injected simultaneously into the tumour. The distribution of the radiotracers was assumed to be in equilibrium at the beginning of the experiment. The blood perfusion was calculated by fitting a two-exponential function to the measuring points. The mean value of the perfusion rate calculated from the xenon results was 13 ± 10 ml/(100 g-min) [range 3 to 38 ml/(100 g-min)] and from the krypton results 19 ± 11 ml/(100 g-min) [range 5 to 45 ml/(100 g-min)]. These values were obtained, if the partition coefficients are equal to one. The equations obtained by using compartmental analysis were used for the calculation of the relative partition coefficient of krypton and xenon. The partition coefficient of krypton was found to be slightly smaller than that of xenon, which may be due to its smaller molecular weight.

SummaryIn the present paper described is a simple test for detecting soluble fibrin monomer complexes (SFMC) in blood. The test consists in mixing 1% protamine sulphate with diluted oxalated plasma or serum and reading the optical density at 6190 Å. In experiments with dog plasma, enriched with soluble fibrin complexes, it was shown that OD read in PS test is proportional to the amount of fibrin recovered from the precipitate. It was found that SFMC level in plasma increases in rabbits infused intravenously with thrombin and decreases after injection of plasmin with streptokinase. In both cases PS precipitable protein in serum is elevated indicating enhanced fibrinolysis. In healthy human subjects the mean value of OD readings in plasma and sera were found to be 0.30 and 0.11, while in patients with coronary thrombosis they are 0.64 and 0.05 respectively. The origin of SFMC in circulation under physiological and pathological conditions is discussed.
