Tourmaline, an intermediate member of the oxyschorl–oxydravite–oxymagnesio-foitite-bosiite series with a predominance of the oxy-dravite-bosiite end-member, was studied from late calcite-quartz veins in the eastern zone of the Murtykty gold deposit (Republic of Bashkortostan). Sulfide mineralization in veins includes rare chalcopyrite, pyrite, sphalerite and galena. Accessory minerals are xenotime-(Y), vanadium-containing rutile and fine high-fineness gold. Supergene mineralization resulted from decomposition of carbonates, sulfides and rock-forming silicates includes kaolinite, hydroxides of Mn (chalcophanite, psilomelane) and Fe (goethite and limonite ochers), mainly developed in vein cavities ; chalcopyrite is replaced by cuprite and malachite. The composition of tourmaline is close to metamorphic dravite of orogenic gold deposits and tourmaline of gold-porphyry deposits, transitioning from porphyry to epithermal. Two possible B sources for the formation of tourmaline are considered: sedimentary rocks of the paleoisland-arc complex and granodiorites of the Mansurovo pluton. Figures 9. Table 1. References 36. Key words: tourmaline, boron, gold, xenotime-(Y), Murtykty deposit, Republic of Bashkortostan.

Abstract Flexible couplings are used to transmit power between two shafts and accommodate, more realistically, a combination of parallel, axial and angular misalignments, between them. Presence of misalignment of certain degree is considered unavoidable. The coupling also attenuates the transmission of fluctuation of torque and speed from one rotor to the other by flexing itself, and is thus helpful in providing nearly smooth transmission of speed and torque. However, in this process, the dynamic behavior of the rotors is also influenced by the coupling characteristics, as the coupling incorporates a flexible damped intermediate member between the shafts it couples. A detailed literature survey has shown that researchers so far have not attempted to find out the dynamic characteristics, the stiffness and damping of a coupling, and, instead, the effect of misalignment (combination of parallel and angular misalignment) is considered to generate forces independent of the coupling characteristics. This paper attempts to find out an analytical model for the dynamic characteristic of segmented link coupling in terms of suitable non-dimensional coefficients to generate the characteristics of a coupling element which may be used for dynamic analysis of coupled rotor shaft system.

AbstractIn Germany, mosasaur remains are very rare and only incompletely known. However, the earliest records date back to the 1830s, when tooth crowns were found in the chalk of the Isle of Rügen. A number of prominent figures in German palaeontology and geosciences of the 19th and 20th centuries focused on these remains, including, among others, Friedrich von Hagenow, Hermann von Meyer, Andreas Wagner, Hanns Bruno Geinitz and Josef Pompeckj. Most of these works were only short notes, given the scant material. However, the discovery of fragmentary cranial remains in Westphalia in 1908 led to a more comprehensive discussion, which is also of historical importance, as it illustrates the discussions on the highly controversial and radical universal phylogenetic theory proposed by Gustav Steinmann in 1908. This theory saw the existence of continuous lines of descent, evolving in parallel, and did not regard higher taxonomic units as monophyletic groups but as intermediate paraphyletic stages of evolution. In this idea, nearly all fossil taxa form part of these lineages, which extend into the present time, and natural extinction occurs very rarely, if ever. In Steinmann's concept, mosasaurs were not closely related to squamates but formed an intermediate member in a anagenetic chain from Triassic thalattosaurs to extant baleen whales. The newly found specimen led Josef Pompeckj to write a vehement rebuttal to Steinmann's theory, published in 1910, showing that his conclusions were conjectural and speculative, being based on convergence and not supported by scientific evidence. This particular specimen, housed in Göttingen, later also inspired a piece of palaeoart by Franz Roubal under the instructions of Othenio Abel.With the exception of a vertebra from the Campanian of former East Prussia (now Russian Federation), and a possible vertebra from the Cenomanian of Dresden, Saxony, all datable material – today partly lost – originated from the northern part of present-day Germany and stratigraphically from the Campanian–Maastrichtian. The purported record from the Cenomanian of Bavaria (southeastern Germany) was most probably an error, based on Upper Jurassic crocodilian material.

AbstractBendadaite, ideally Fe2+Fe23+(AsO4)2(OH)2·4H2O, is a new member of the arthurite group. It was found as a weathering product of arsenopyrite on a single hand specimen from the phosphate pegmatite Bendada, central Portugal (type locality). Co-type locality is the granite pegmatite of Lavra do Almerindo (Almerindo mine), Linópolis, Divino das Laranjeiras county, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Further localities are the Veta Negra mine, Copiapó province, Chile; Oumlil-East, Bou Azzer district, Morocco; and Pira Inferida yard, Fenugu Sibiri mine, Gonnosfanadiga, Medio Campidano Province, Sardinia, Italy.Type bendadaite occurs as blackish green to dark brownish tufts (<0.1 mm long) and flattened radiating aggregates, in intimate association with an intermediate member of the scorodite–mansfieldite series. It is monoclinic, space groupP21/c, witha= 10.239(3) Å,b= 9.713(2) Å,c= 5.552(2) Å, β = 94.11(2)°,V= 550.7(2) Å3, Z = 2. Electron-microprobe analysis yielded (wt.%): CaO 0.04, MnO 0.03, CuO 0.06, ZnO 0.04, Fe2O3(total) 43.92, Al2O31.15, SnO20.10, As2O543.27, P2O51.86, SO30.03. The empirical formula is (Fe2+0.52Fe3+0.32☐0.16)Σ1.00(Fe3+1.89Al0.11)Σ2.00(As1.87P0.13)Σ2.00O8(OH)2.00·4H2O based on 2(As,P) and assuming ideal 8O, 2(OH), 4H2O and complete occupancy of the ferric iron site by Fe3+and Al. Optically, bendadaite is biaxial, positive, 2Vest.= 85±4°, 2Vcalc.= 88°, with α 1.734(3), β 1.759(3), γ 1.787(4). Pleochroism is medium strong:Xpale reddish brown,Yyellowish brown,Zdark yellowish brown; absorptionZ>Y>X, optical dispersion weak,r>v. Optical axis plane is parallel to (010), withXapproximately parallel toaandZnearly parallel to c. Bendadaite has vitreous to sub-adamantine luster, is translucent and non-fluorescent. It is brittle, shows irregular fracture and a good cleavage parallel to {010}. Dmeas.3.15±0.10 g/cm3, Dcalc.3.193 g/cm3(for the empirical formula). The five strongest powder diffraction lines [din Å (I)(hkl)] are 10.22 (10)(100), 7.036 (8)(110), 4.250 (5)(111), 2.865 (4)(), 4.833 (3)(020,011). Thedspacings are very similar to those of its Zn analogue, ojuelaite. The crystal structure of bendadaite was solved and refined using a crystal from the co-type locality with the composition (Fe2+0.95☐0.05)Σ1.00(Fe3+1.80Al0.20)Σ2.00(As1.48P0.52)Σ2.00O8(OH)2·4H2O (R= 1.6%), and confirms an arthurite-type atomic arrangement.

AbstractSome samples of hollandite-type titanates from the Murun alkaline complex (Yakutia, Russia) contain appreciable amounts of Pb (up to 12.5 wt.% PbO). These titanates occur in a pegmatitic K-feldsparaegirine rock containing subordinate K-rich batisite, titanite, wadeite and other minerals. The Pb-bearing crystals coexist with hollandite-type phases devoid of detectable Pb and zoned from a Kdominant (priderite) core to a Ba-dominant (henrymeyerite) rim. Recalculation of the microprobe analyses on the stoichiometric basis indicates that most of the Fe occurs in this mineral in trivalent form, suggesting the existence of a solid solution between the Ba(Ti6Fe)O16, K2(Ti6Fe)O16 and Pb(Ti6Fe)O16 end-members. The maximum proportion of the latter end-member in the Murun titanates is ∽45 mol.%. The Ba-free compositions [Pb1.0–1.3(Ti,Fe)8O16] and intermediate members of the (Ba1–xPbx)(Ti6Fe)O16 series were synthesized at 1050 –1100ºC. The synthesis products comprise tetragonal hollandites of various stoichiometry intermixed with rutile, a pseudobrookite-type phase and (for the Ba-free compositions) minor macedonite. Electron microprobe analyses of the hollandites indicate that there is a continuous series of compositions between the two hexatitanate end-members, Ba(Ti6Fe)O16 and Pb(Ti6Fe)O16. The crystal structure of one intermediate member was refined by the Rietveld method in space group I4/m, and found to differ from the hollandite archetype (i.e. Pb-bearing Ba manganate) in that Pb is preferentially partitioned into the 2b tunnel site at (0,0,½), whereas Ba is partitioned into the larger 4e site at (0,0,∽0.8).

Definition of the face gearing with a conical involute pinion starts with the basic rack. The pinion and the face gear are obtained as the result of true conjugate generation, with generating action described by the equation of meshing. The limiting conditions of undercutting, interference and pointing on the face gear tooth are determined. A new method is proposed for continuous generation of the face gear with an intermediate member, which, together with state of the art CNC technologies, allows practical grinding, hobbing or shaving of the face gear. A mathematical model is established which relates the basic plane, the pinion, the intermediate member and the face gear with true conjugate action, thereby determining the relative position and motion between any two of the four members. Design considerations are discussed. A numerical example is given.
