Abstract 1. The reinforcing action of carbon blacks is most clearly apparent in the knotty tearing of carbon black rubbers. 2. Knotty tearing is characteristic of rubbers filled with carbon black in definite ranges of deformation and temperature, the position of which depends upon the type of rubber and carbon black. 3. With high contents of contact gas black in vulcanizates of sodium butadiene (SKB) and butadiene sytrene (SKS-30) rubbers two ranges of knotty tearing occur. The first is situated at relatively high temperatures and low rates and the second at relatively low temperatures and higher rates. Reduction in the content of black in these vulcanizates leads to the disappearance of the high temperature range of knotty tearing and the displacement of the low-temperature range towards higher temperatures and low rates. This position of the ranges (at medium rates and temperatures) is characteristic also of the said synthetic rubbers containing thermal black. 4. The first range of knotty tearing of filled SKB and SKS-30 vulcanizates with contact black is linked with the presence in them of carbon black chains, while the second range, existing also with vulcanizates with thermal black, is connected with the presence of carbon black particles. 5. Within the ranges ofr ates from 40 to 1000 mm/min and of temperatures from 40 to +100° C filled vulcanizates of natural rubber have one range of knotty tearing situated at lower rates. In the case of the presence in them of contact gas black the range is shifted towards higher rates than in the case of thermal black. 6. Increasing the length of the nick in testpieces being tested for tear propagation leads to a shift in the range of knotty tearing towards higher rates and widens it with respect to temperatures. This same effect is noted on altering the shape of the testpiece, starting with the Delft testpieces and proceeding to types A, B, and C, i.e. increasing the nonuniformity of stress distribution in the deformed testpieces.

The current study investigated the effect of poultry house temperature change on the growth and development of both broiler chickens themselves and the development of their individual organs. Following 42 days of rearing, results showed that the body oblique length, chest width, chest depth, chest angle, keel length, pelvic width, and tibial length of broilers in the low temperature group were significantly lower than those of the control group (P<0.05), while the breast depth of broiler chickens in the high-temperature group was significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). Furthermore, low temperatures significantly increased the function of the heart, liver, spleen and pancreas of broiler chickens (P<0.05). After 7 days of rearing, the bursal index of broilers in the high temperature group was significantly higher than in the control group as well as in the low temperature group (P<0.05). Previous research has established that high and low temperatures significantly affect the growth and development as well as the immunity of broiler chickens, namely that low environmental temperatures have a more adverse effect on broiler chickens than high temperatures. Consequently, using and maintaining high temperatures early in rearing helps to improve the immunity of broilers and improve their performance. The results of our study provides an opportunity to provide both a theoretical and a practical basis for accurate temperature setting in poultry houses for effective breeding of broiler chickens, which will make it possible to increase the productivity of broiler chickens and increase the economic efficiency of the poultry house. Key words: temperature, breeding, body weight, organ development, broilers chickens.

ABSTRACTThe low temperature thermally stimulated conductivity (TSC) in a-Si:H film has been investigated in the temperature range from 20 to 150 K. Unlike the results of the high temperature TSC, the low temperature peak value and position (Tm) of TSC do not depend on the starting temperature T0 at low temperatures. This new phenomenon can not be explained by TSC theory [1]. Based on the multiple trapping (MT) Model, TSC theory limits its application to the intermediate and high temperature range. In this paper, a model of the hopping conduction with the transport energy Et in the band tail is proposed to understand the behavior of the low temperature TSC in which the thermal emission energy Em does not depend on the starting temperature of TSC.

The speed or orthokinesis and turning rates or klinokinesis of individual adults of the grain weevil, Sitophilus granarius (L.), were affected by both the rearing temperature and the testing temperature. In general, orthokinesis decreased with a decrease in temperature, but weevils reared at a low temperature showed a smaller decrease than those reared at a high temperature. Klinokinesis was greater when differences between rearing and test temperatures were large and least when the differences were small or absent. Effects of differences between rearing and test temperatures were less if weevils were kept at the test temperature for 24 hours before testing and absent if beetles were at the test temperature for 2 weeks. Orthokinesis was shown to be an unsatisfactory orientation mechanism at low temperatures although it may operate with some efficiency at moderately high temperatures. Klinokinesis was much more effective at extreme temperatures and is probably the chief locomotory mechanism of orientation to temperature in this species.

The modified Kozeny equation has been found to be satisfactory for the measurement of the specific surfaces of carbon blacks having average particle diameters ranging from 0.01 to 0.1 μ to within ±10%. Comparative data were obtained from electron microscope counting and from low temperature nitrogen adsorption isotherms. The three methods examined gave results that were in satisfactory agreement, except when the carbon black was porous, and then the adsorption value was extremely large.

AbstractFreshly harvested oat (Avena sativa L.) seeds are considered to be dormant because they are unable to germinate at relatively high temperatures (above 20°–25°C). This primary dormancy results partly from the structures surrounding or adjacent to the embryo (pericarp, testa and endosperm) and partly lies in the embryo itself. Incubation of imbibed dormant seeds at 30°C induces a thermodormancy which is expressed as germination in a narrower temperature range. Induction of thermodormancy is apparent after 3–8 hours at 30°C, is optimal after about 1–2 days at this temperature, but diminishes with longer treatment times. Although whole grains become more dormant as a result of such treatment, the embryos themselves become less dormant, therefore the tissues covering or adjacent to the embryos must have become more inhibiting or the embryos have become more sensitive to their inhibitory action. The germination and sensitivity to ABA or oxygen of embryos isolated from such seeds are no longer so dependent on temperature. The effect of high temperature on primary dormancy and induction of thermodormancy is discussed with reference to sensitivity to ABA and temperature.

High-temperature forging experiments have been carried out by axial compression testing on a Fe–41Al–2Cr alloy in order to determine the deformation systems operating under such high-speed, high-temperature conditions, and to examine the textures produced by such deformation and during subsequent annealing to recrystallize. Deformation is deduced to take place by the operation of 〈111〉 {110} and 〈111〉{112} slip systems at low temperatures and by 〈100〉{001} and 〈100〉{011} slip systems at high temperatures, with the formation of the expected strong 〈111〉 textures. The examination of the weak 〈100〉 texture component is critical to distinguishing the operating slip system. Both texture and dislocation analyses are consistent with the operation of these deformation systems. Recrystallization takes place extremely quickly at high temperatures (above 800 °C), that is within seconds after deformation and also dynamically during deformation itself. Recrystallization changes the texture such that 〈100〉 textures superimpose on the deformation texture. The flow stress peak observed during forging is found at a very high temperature. Possible origins of the peak are examined in terms of the operating slip systems.

On the basis of previously accumulated irreversible deformations, and, consequently, residual stresses, the process of removing residual stresses in metal workpieces under the action of low and high temperatures is simulated. Boundary value problems are solved and here are described regularities that are responsible for removing residual stresses for processing modes: high-temperature heating - cooling, high-temperature heating - holding - cooling, low-temperature heating - holding - cooling. The holding stage is modeled, taking into account the creep properties of materials under Norton creep conditions. According to the dependences of the obtained exact solutions, it is shown that it is the holding process that leads to the relaxation of residual stresses.

ABSTRACTThe stability of single-crystalline icosahedral Cd-Yb was investigated using X-ray diffraction methods in the temperature range 20 K ≤ T ≤ 900 K at ambient pressure and from ambient temperature to 873 K at about 9 GPa. Single-crystals remain stable at low temperatures and in the investigated HP-HT-regime. At high temperatures and ambient pressure, the quasicrystal decomposes. The application of mechanical stress at low temperatures yields to the same decomposition, the formation of Cd. A reaction of icosahedral Cd-Yb with traces of oxygen or water causing the decomposition seems reasonable, but a low-temperature instability of this binary quasi-crystal cannot be ruled out totally.

As a preliminary investigation into the establishment of a lithium removal technique for the components used at the International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF), experiments were performed on the dissolution of lithium in three solvents: ethanol, pure water, and ethanol–water. In these experiments, hemispherical lithium was immersed in the solvents at constant temperatures, and the degree of dissolution was measured continuously from the height of the sample. From the obtained data, the average dissolution rate in the solvents at each testing temperature (10–90 °C) and the amount of hydrogen generated by the chemical reaction were calculated. The average dissolution rates in ethanol, pure water, and ethanol–water at 30 °C were 0.01, 1.6, and 0.43 mm/min, respectively. Although the average dissolution rate increased with the testing temperature in the low-temperature range (10–50 °C) for all solvents, this increase was saturated in the high-temperature range (50–90 °C) in experiments with pure water and ethanol–water as solvents. The volume of gas collected during each experiment was in good agreement with the volume of hydrogen assumed to be generated from the chemical reaction of lithium with the solvents.
