Strengthening of Short Circular Columns Using FRP Materials - Determining the Effect of Confinement
Authors: Kostiha Vojtech , Girgle Frantisek , Kučerová Anna , Stepanek Petr
Published: May 2016

The paper focuses on strengthening of loadbearing reinforced concrete vertical members by composite materials. These modern materials are used more and more in the last years. Usage of the FRP fabrics as confinement has several advantages, however there are some uncertainties regarding the design (eg. determining the compressive strength of confined concrete and limit strain of confined concrete). An assessment of influence of the confinement on the elements (its load bearing capacity and ductility) is necessary for design. There is a large number of analytical formulas, standardized approaches and regulations, which specify the resulting influence on the confinement. The paper draws attention to the considerable dispersion between those obtained results.The paper presents an analysis of the influence of reinforced concrete columns strengthening, which are confined with FRP fabric. The obtained theoretical results were compared with a real behaviour of several specimens of confined concrete columns. The short reinforced concrete circular columns were used as the test specimens. The height-diameter ratio of the columns was set as 2:1, therefore an influence of slenderness to loadbearing capacity of the column can be neglected. Consequently, the influence of confinement can be maximized and the dispersion of results according to different methodologies can be emphasized.

Authors: Ishikawa Takeo , Mizuno Shota , Kurita Nobuyuki
Published: May 2016

The rotor geometry of a permanent magnet (PM) machine greatly affects the machine performance and therefore, it is very important to develop an initial conceptual structural topology of a PM rotor. We proposed an optimization method which is the combination of a topology optimization method and a method taking into account ease of manufacturing. This paper has manufactured an optimized rotor of a PM synchronous machine. Experimental results show that when operating as a generator, the designed machine has 46 % higher output voltage than that of a commercialized one. The efficiency of the designed machine is improved by about 2 % comparing with the commercialized machine. Therefore, it is experimentally confirmed that the optimized PM machine has a better performance than the commercialized one.

Authors: Chervenkov Atanas , Chervenkova Todorka
Published: May 2016

The magnetic and electrical field in the vicinity of overhead power line for high voltage - 220 kV is investigated. FEM model is created. Simulations of normal and emergency mode of the power line are made. The electrical intensity at idle mode in some areas, close to overhead power line, creates a high voltage level for humans. It can create also disturbances in the electrical equipment and the vehicles. These surges violate electromagnetic compatibility. The magnetic induction at emergency mode – short circuit and lightning strike in the areas around the towers could give a disturbing reaction of humans, animals and sensitive electronic devices. One solution for decreasing of the magnetic flux density to acceptable values is offered.

Authors: Kantartzis Nikolaos , Ohtani Tadao , Kanai Yasushi , Tsiboukis Theodoros
Published: May 2016

A family of consistent thin-wire representation models blended with a 3-D optimized vector finite-element time-domain/finite-difference time-domain method is developed in this paper for nanomaterial and graphene devices. Based on a tailored set of telegrapher’s equations, the novel technique approximates traveling waves along the radial direction of the wire and minimizes artificial instabilities. Also, through a non-overlapping grid discretization algorithm, the hyperbolic character of Maxwell’s laws is physically preserved. In this way, tilted or circular-loop structures of arbitrary orientation are accurately coupled with the curvilinear algorithm. These attributes are successfully verified via various nanoscale components and finite-sized graphene arrangements.
Magnetofluorescent Nanocomposites Integrating Magnetic Nanoparticles and Near Infrared Quantum Dots for Tumor Cell Targeting
Authors: Zhu Xiao Shan
Published: May 2016

In this work, we report the preparation of MFNCs integrating MnFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), near infrared CuInS2/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) and poly (ethylene glycol)-b-poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (PEG-PLGA) in a tetrahydrofuran (THF)/water solvent system. It is found that the MFNCs possess high (Mn + Fe) recovery rates, and the optical properties and magnetic relaxivity of the MFNCs are tunable according to the MNP:QD mass ratios. Furthermore, the MFNCs present excellent capability for tumor cell targeting once they are conjugated with bioprobes specific to tumor cells. This study opens an avenue for the MFNCs to be employed in broad biological or biomedical applications.

Published: May 2016

Abstract. In order to understand the processes governing the production of marine aerosols, repeatable, controlled methods for their generation are required. A new system, the miniature Marine Aerosol Reference Tank (miniMART) has been designed after the success of the original MART system, to approximate a small oceanic spilling breaker by producing an evolving bubble plume and surface foam patch. The smaller tank utilizes an intermittently plunging jet of water produced by a rotating water wheel, into an approximately 6 L reservoir to simulate bubble plume and foam formation and generate aerosols. This system produces bubble plumes characteristic of small whitecaps without the large external pump inherent in the original MART design. Without the pump it is possible to easily culture delicate planktonic and microbial communities in the bulk water during experiments while continuously producing aerosols for study. However, due to the reduced volume and smaller plunging jet, the absolute numbers of particles generated are approximately an order of magnitude less than in the original MART design.

Control of threading dislocations by Al(Ga)InAs reverse-graded buffers grown on GaAs substrates
Authors: He Yang , Sun Yurun , Song Yan , Zhao Yongming , Yu Shuzhen , Dong Jianrong
Published: May 2016

High-quality strain-relaxed InP layers with undulating step-graded Al(Ga)InAs buffers were grown on GaAs substrates by metal–organic chemical vapor deposition. Transmission electron microscopy, high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM), atom force microscopy, and photoluminescence were carried out to characterize the metamorphic buffers. V-shaped dislocations in [001] Al(Ga)InAs reverse-graded layers were observed by HREM and the behavior of reverse-graded layers was simulated theoretically using analytical models. Both the experimental and theoretical results indicated that the insertion of reverse-graded layers with appropriately designed thicknesses and In grading coefficients promotes the annihilation and coalescence reactions between threading dislocations and reduces threading dislocations density.
Properties of marine stratocumulus obtained with partly cloudy pixel retrievals and found in the MODIS MOD06 cloud product
Authors: Boeke Robyn C. , Allan Andrea M. , Coakley James A.
Published: May 2016

Partly cloudy pixel retrievals (PCPRs) of cloud properties for marine stratocumulus were compared with those of the 1 km Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) cloud product (MOD06). In addition, the fractional cloud cover obtained from the PCPRs applied to 1 km MODIS radiances was compared with that derived from the 250 m cloud mask (MOD35). The comparisons were made for pixels that were overcast and pixels that were only partially covered by clouds. Accounting for failed retrievals in both the MOD06 cloud properties and those obtained with the PCPRs leads to the suggestion that regional cloud cover be estimated in terms of lower and upper limits. The average could serve as the best estimate of the cloud cover, and the difference between the average and an extreme could serve as the uncertainty. The comparisons reveal that the overcast assumption used in the MODIS cloud property retrievals leads to cloud cover, droplet effective radii, and cloud top temperatures that are overestimated and, shortwave optical depths, liquid water paths that are underestimated. These biases persist when the properties are averaged to form spatial and temporal means. Owing to significant horizontal variations of cloud liquid water within the 1 km MODIS pixels, visible optical depths, droplet effective radii, and liquid water paths derived from the PCPRs show similar biases. The trends of the biases with pixel‐scale and regional‐scale cloud cover suggest that estimates of the aerosol indirect radiative forcing derived from satellites have been overestimated.

The paper presents a novel approach to justification of asymptotic stability of linear time‐varying systems with persistently excited right‐hand side. This approach combines the direct Lyapunov method with the Steklov averaging technique; its distinguishing feature is closed‐form construction of the Lyapunov functional, along with resultant explicit estimates of the rate of convergency. © 2016 The Authors.

Roger Schroeder's first passion was to be a park ranger. “I was one of those low percentage of people who never change their major in college because I always knew what I wanted to do,” Schroeder said. When Schroeder began looking for jobs as a park ranger, he was guided in the direction of law enforcement to gain a leg up on his competition. After spending a summer as a ranger in the Badlands, Schroeder found an opening as a campus security officer at Humboldt State University, a position from which he retired in 2010. That location combined his newfound passion for law enforcement with the natural beauty of the Redwood forests of Northern California.
