Caustic cracking susceptibility of SAE A 516 Gr. 70 steel in alkaline sulphide solutions
Creators: name: Ramakrishna, Shankar
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of A516 Gr. 70 steel was investigated in three solution composed of 3.35 m NaOH, 2.5 m NaOH + 0.42 m Na₂S, and 3.35 m NaOH + 0.02 m Na₂S. The electrochemical potential for maximum susceptibility was assessed by the slow strain rate testing technique (SSRT), and was found to reside in the active passive transition zone in each solution (-1 V[sub SCE] in the 3.35 m NaOH solution, and -0.88 [sub SCE] in the solution containing sulphide ions). Some secondary cracking was visible at potentials corresponding to the passive zone in the 3.35 m NaOH + 0.42 m Na₂S solution, indicating that the material was mildly susceptible to stress corrosion cracking at anodic protection potentials. Since most industrial failures have occurred, in the vicinity of welds, a series of tests with a weld incorporated in SSRT specimen was conducted to ascertain whether or not changes in microstructure affected stress corrosion susceptibility. The fusion zone of a single pass weld was found to be most susceptible to cracking in alkaline sulphide solutions, at potentials corresponding to the active-passive transition. The fracture mechanics technique, utilizing fatigue precracked to study the effects of stress intensity, electrochemical potentials, microstructure, and heat treatment, on crack propogation rates in the 3.35 m NaOH + 0.42 m Na₂S solutions. Both stress intensity dependent (regions I and III) and stress intensity independent (region II) cracking propogation behavior was observed. Region II crack velocities of the order of 4 x 10⁻¹⁰ m/sec were observed at -0.88 V[sub SCE], and 2 x 10⁻¹⁰m/sec at -0.75 V[sub SCE]. No significant change in region II crack velocity was observed when the base material was subjected to a simulated stress relief anneal (650°C for 1 hr.) and tested at -0.88 V[sub SCE]. The region II crack velocity through a material with a dendritic microstructure (fusion zone of a weld) was found to be approximately 1 x 10⁻¹⁰ m/sec. A mechanism for failure due to coalescence of cracks and not due to the penetration of a single crack through the wall, has been suggested. The applicability of anodic protection in prolonging the service life of digesters has been examined. Although no experiments were conducted to determine the mechanism of crack propogation, hydrogen embrittlement has been ruled out as a possible mechanism contributing to failure. The results obtained are expected to find applications in the pulp and paper industry.

description: We describe a method for interpreting trilepton searches at high energy colliders in a model-independent fashion and apply it to the recent searches at the Tevatron. The key step is to recognize that the trilepton signature is comprised of four experimentally very different channels defined by the number of tau-leptons in the trilepton state. Contributions from these multiple channels to the overall experimental sensitivity (cross section times branching ratio) are model-independent and can be parametrized in terms of relevant new particle masses. Given the trileptonic branching ratios of a specific model, these experimentally obtained multichannel sensitivities can be combined to obtain a cross section measurement that can be used to confront the model with data. Our model-independent results are more widely applicable than the current Tevatron trilepton results which are stated exclusively in terms of mSUGRA parameters of supersymmetry. The technique presented here can be expanded beyond trilepton searches to the more general "inverse problem" of experimentally discriminating between competing models that seek to explain new physics discovered in multiple channels.

description: We consider the evolution of primordial black holes in a generalyzed Jordan-Brans-Dicke cosmological model where both the Brans-Dicke scalar field and its coupling to gravity are dynamical functions determined from the evolution equations. The evaporation rate for the black holes changes compared to that in standard cosmology. We show that accretion of radiation can proceed effectively in the radiation dominated era. The black hole lifetime shortens for low initial mass, but increases for high initial mass, and is thus considerably modified compared to the case of standard cosmology. We derive a cut-off value for the initial black hole mass, below which primordial black holes evaporate out in the radiation dominated era, and above which they survive beyond the present era.

description: We investigate the accretion induced spin up of the black hole via numerical simulations. Our method is based on general-relativistic magneto-hydrodynamics of the slowly-rotating flows in the Kerr metric, where possibly transonic shock fronts may form. We account for the changing black hole mass and spin during accretion which enforces dynamical evolution of the space-time metric. We first study non-magnetized flows with shocks, and we also include magnetic field endowed in the gas. The aim of this study is to verify whether the high mass black holes may be produced with large spins, even though at birth the collapsars might have contained slowly, or moderately spinning cores. In this way, we put constraints on the content of angular momentum in the collapsing massive stars. Our studies are also showing that shock fronts and magnetic fields may halt accretion and limit the black hole spin-up in the exploding supernovae.

description: Code search engines usually use readability feature to rank code snippets. There are several metrics to calculate this feature, but developers may have different perceptions about readability. Correlation between readability and understandability features has already been proposed, i.e., developers need to read and comprehend the code snippet syntax, but also understand the semantics. This work investigate scores for understandability and readability features, under the perspective of the possible subjective perception of code snippet comprehension. We find that code snippets with higher readability score has better comprehension than lower ones. The understandability score presents better comprehension in specific situations, e.g. nested loops or if-else chains. The developers also mentioned writability aspects as the principal characteristic to evaluate code snippets comprehension. These results provide insights for future works in code comprehension score optimization.

Inverse segregation and centreline shrinkage
Creators: name: Minakawa, Sakae
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: One of the major factors controlling macrosegregation and shrinkage porosity in castings is the extent of interdendritic fluid flow which occurs during solidification. Interdendritic flow results from movement of liquid to fill the voids left by solidification and thermal shrinkage, which in the case of many alloys cast against a cold chill, results in inverse segregation. In the present investigation, Inverse segregation has been examined theoretically. Quantitative values for the segregation both at and adjacent to the chill face have been determined using a mathematical model and computer calculations. The alloys considered were Al-Cu, Al-Zn and Sb-Bi, the latter being of particular significance since it expands during solidification. The model results show reasonable agreement with published data of chill face inverse segregation. In the previous models, the volume shrinkage used to calculate inverse segregation did not include the thermal contraction which, in the present model predictions, was found to have more significant role in the segregation than expected. The results from the present model differs significantly from those of the earlier models, particularly in the Al-Zn alloys. Centreline shrinkage in a steel plate casting, associated with back flow of interdendritic liquid, was examined using the interdendritic fluid flow model combined with a heat transfer model of the system. Regions of the plate where centreline porosity should occur were predicted with the new model and compared to published experimental results of porosity in steel plates. Excellent agreement was obtained between the predicted and experimental results. In the fluid flow model, Darcy's Law was used to determine the extent of flow in the interdendritic channels. The present results indicate Darcy's Law is valid in this application.

description: Magnetic impurities in diamond influence the relaxation properties and thus limit the sensitivity of magnetic, electric, strain, and temperature sensors based on nitrogen-vacancy color centers. Diamond samples may exhibit significant spatial variations in the impurity concentrations hindering the quantitative analysis of relaxation pathways. Here, we present a local measurement technique which can be used to determine the concentration of various species of defects by utilizing double electron-electron resonance. This method will help to improve the understanding of the physics underlying spin relaxation and guide the development of diamond samples, as well as offering protocols for optimized sensing.

description: The overshooting convective motions in the solar photosphere are frequently proposed as the source for the excitation of Alfvén waves. However, the photosphere is a) very weakly ionized, and, b) the dynamics of the plasma particles in this region is heavily influenced by the plasma-neutral collisions. The purpose of this work is to check the consequences of these two facts on the above scenario and their effects on the electromagnetic waves. It is shown that the ions and electrons in the photosphere are both un-magnetized; their collision frequency with neutrals is much larger than the gyro-frequency. This implies that eventual Alfvén-type electromagnetic perturbations must involve the neutrals as well. This has the following serious consequences: i) in the presence of perturbations, the whole fluid (plasma + neutrals) moves; ii) the Alfvén velocity includes the total (plasma + neutrals) density and is thus considerably smaller compared to the collision-less case; iii) the perturbed velocity of a unit volume, which now includes both plasma and neutrals, becomes much smaller compared to the ideal (collision-less) case; and iv) the corresponding wave energy flux for the given parameters becomes much smaller compared to the ideal case.

description: We observe that the elementary logistic differential equation dP/dt=(1-P/M)kP may be solved by first changing the variable to R=(M-P)/P. This reduces the logistic differential equation to the simple linear differential equation dR/dt=-kR, which can be solved without using the customary but slightly more elaborate methods applied to the original logistic DE. The resulting solution in terms of R can be converted by simple algebra to the familiar sigmoid expression involving P. A biological argument is given for introducing logistic growth via the simpler DE for R. It is also shown that the sigmoid P may be written in terms of the hyperbolic tangent by a simple translation that is also motivated by a biological argument.

description: Art is a variety of human activities that include the production of visual, auditory, or performing objects that express the creativity, creative concepts, or technological abilities of the artist, intended primarily for their beauty or emotional power to be appreciated. The renaissance of historic and forgotten art has been made possible by modern developments in Artificial Intelligence. Techniques for Computer Vision have long been related to such arts. Style Transfer using Neural Networks refers to optimization techniques, where a content image and a style image are taken and blended such that it feels like the content image is reconstructed in the style image color palette. This paper implements the Style Transfer using three different Neural Networks in form of an application that is accessible to the general population thereby reviving interest in lost art styles.

description: We evaluate the path integral of the Poisson sigma model on sphere and study the correlators of quantum observables. We argue that for the path integral to be well-defined the corresponding Poisson structure should be unimodular. The construction of the finite dimensional BV theory is presented and we argue that it is responsible for the leading semiclassical contribution. For a (twisted) generalized Kahler manifold we discuss the gauge fixed action for the Poisson sigma model. Using the localization we prove that for the holomorphic Poisson structure the semiclassical result for the correlators is indeed the full quantum result.

description: We formulate both Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling algorithms and basic statistical physics in terms of elementary symmetries. This perspective on sampling yields derivations of well-known MCMC algorithms and a new parallel algorithm that appears to converge more quickly than current state of the art methods. The symmetry perspective also yields a parsimonious framework for statistical physics and a practical approach to constructing meaningful notions of effective temperature and energy directly from time series data. We apply these latter ideas to Anosov systems.

description: Dynamic phase transition of charged dilaton black holes is investigated in this paper. We introduce the Gibbs free energy landscape and calculate the corresponding $G_L$ for the dilaton black hole. On the one hand, we numerically solve the Fokker-Planck equation constrained by only the reflecting boundary condition. The effects of dilaton gravity on the probabilistic evolution of dilaton black holes are quite obvious. Firstly, the horizon radius difference between the large dilaton black hole and small dilaton black hole increases with the parameter $α$. Secondly, with the increasing of $α$, the system needs much more time to achieve a stationary distribution. Thirdly, the value which $ρ(r_l,t)$ and $ρ(r_s,t)$ finally attain varies with the parameter $α$. On the other hand, resolving Fokker-Planck equation constrained by both the reflecting boundary condition and absorbing boundary condition, we investigate the first passage process of dilaton black holes. The initial peak decays more slowly with the increase of $α$, which can also be witnessed from the slow down of the decay of $Σ(t)$ (the sum of the probability that the black hole system having not finished a first passage by time $t$). Moreover, the time corresponding to the single peak of the first passage time distribution is also found to increase with the parameter $α$. Considering all the observations mentioned above, the dilaton field does slow down the dynamic phase transition process between the large black hole and small black hole.

description: As product complexity and marketing competition increase, a collaborative product development is necessary for companies which develop high quality products in short lead-times. To support product actors from different fields, disciplines, and locations, wishing to exchange and share information, the representation of the actors' viewpoints is the underlying requirement of the collaborative product development. The actors' viewpoints approach was designed to provide an organisational framework following the actors' perspectives in the collaboration, and their relationships, could be explicitly gathered and formatted. The approach acknowledges the inevitability of multiple integration of product information as different views, promotes gathering of actors' interests, and encourages retrieved adequate information while providing support for integration through PLM and/or SCM collaboration. In this paper, a solution for neutral viewpoints representation is proposed. The product, process, and organisation information models are seriatim discussed. A series of issues referring to the viewpoints representation are discussed in detail. Based on XML standard, taking cyclone vessel as an example, an application case of part of product information modelling is stated.

description: The non-perturbative renormalisation of quantum gravity is investigated allowing for the metric to be reparameterised along the RG flow, such that only the essential couplings constants are renormalised. This allows us to identify a universality class of quantum gravity which is guaranteed to be unitary, since the physical degrees of freedom are those of general relativity without matter and with a vanishing cosmological constant. Considering all diffeomorphism invariant operators with up to four derivatives, only Newton's constant is essential at the Gaussian infrared fixed point associated to the linearised Einstein--Hilbert action. The other inessential couplings can then be fixed to the values they take at the Gaussian fixed point along the RG flow within this universality class. In the ultraviolet, the corresponding beta function for Newton's constant vanishes at the interacting Reuter fixed point. The properties of the Reuter fixed point are stable between the Einstein--Hilbert approximation and the approximation including all diffeomorphism invariant four derivative terms in the flow equation. Our results suggest that Newton's constant is the only relevant essential coupling at the Reuter fixed point. Therefore, we conjecture that quantum Einstein gravity, the ultraviolet completion of Einstein's theory of general relativity in the asymptotic safety scenario, has no free parameters in the absence of matter and in particular predicts a vanishing cosmological constant.

description: A boost in the development of flexible and wearable electronics facilitates the design of new materials to be applied as transparent conducting films (TCFs). Although single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) films are the most promising candidates for flexible TCFs, they still do not meet optoelectronic requirements demanded their successful industrial integration. In this study, we proposed and thoroughly investigated a new approach that comprises simultaneous bilateral (outer and inner surfaces) SWCNT doping after their opening by thermal treatment at 400 C under an ambient air atmosphere. Doping by a chloroauric acid (HAuCl$_{4}$) ethanol solution allowed us to achieve the record value of sheet resistance of 31 $\pm$ 4 $Ω$/sq at a transmittance of 90% in the middle of visible spectra (550 nm). The strong p-doping was examined by open-circuit potential (OCP) measurements and confirmed by ab initio calculations demonstrating a downshift of Fermi level around 1 eV for the case of bilateral doping.

L'esilio di un eroe culturale. Per una lettura antropologica del De Reditu di Rutilio Namaziano
Creators: name: Li Causi, Pietro
Publisher: name: Annali Online  Lettere - Ferrara
Year: 2012

description: Since the first lines of De reditu, Rutilius Namatianus's long way home  assumes the form of a paradoxical exilic journey towards his own land.  In an Urbs that is everywhere, but whose symbolic tissue begins to flake  off as a result of the barbaric invasions, the poet tries to bestow on  his persona the traits of an idealized Romanity, in order to escape the  danger of the loss of significance. By so doing, Rutilius constructs  himself as a sort of cultural hero, who is going to re-assign to the  Gallic space (which is risking to become a non-lieu) the marks of Rome's  cultural identity.

description: We present an explicit sech-squared-soliton solution associated with the optical Pockels effect, achieved through the generation of the frequency combs via parametric down-conversion in optical microresonators with quadratic nonlinearity. This soliton contrasts the parametric sech-soliton describing the half-harmonic field in the limit of the large index mismatch, and associated with the cascaded-Kerr effect. We predict differences in the spectral profiles and powers of the Pockels and cascaded-Kerr solitons, and report that the pump power threshold of the former agree with the recent experimental observations.

Development of slag-resistant refractory linings
Creators: name: Sarkar, Dipankar
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Attempts have been made to develop slag resistant refractory lining for Dore furnaces, which are primarily used for smelting Pb-anodes in order to extract precious metals. All the physical properties of Dore slag (PbO-based) such as, melting temperature, melt density, viscosity, surface tension and wetting behaviour over the temperature range of furnace operations (600-1100°C) were determined. These studies indicated that Dore slags (i) melt at temperatures between 550 and 600°C; (ii) have the melt densities 5.0 to 7.0 g/cm³ in the temperature range 750-1050°C, melt density primarily being controlled by the concentration of Pb0(ρ20°C-8.0/cm³) and Bi₂O₃ (ρ20°C-8.9/cm³) (iii) are highly fluid in the temperature range 750-1050°C, having the viscosity of 0.4 to 0.8 N.S.m⁻²; (iv) have low surface tension values 450 to 325 dyne.cm⁻¹ at 750°C and (v) have low contact angles between 15 and 30° on alumina substrates. These slag properties indicate that the slags would spread very easily on alumina refractories and most possibly on other refractories. Coating compositions were then developed by studying the available phase equilibrium diagraim/s, with the consideration that a glassy component would be necessary in the coating to seal-up the pores. Slag pill tests on coated bricks revealed that only application of a coating could not prevent significant slag prenetration. This is so in spite of the fact that the coating compositions contained 60-70 silica to form a large amount of glassy phase in the coating. To reduce the harmful effect of slag constituents, CaO was found to be the best oxide to produce high temperature melting compounds by reacting with oxide constituents in slags. Further studies on impregnating the bricks with CaO and CaCl₂ show that an optimum impregnation of bricks with ~ 2 wt.% CaCl₂, and a coating of a mixture of 30% CaO, 60% SiO₂ and 10% slag on the impregnated bricks, have been able to stop slag penetration into the refractory bricks.

description: Motivated by recent experiments [Pashkin et al. Nature, \textbf{421}, 823 (2003)] which showed coherent oscillations of two superconducting qubits system, we consider a system of two charge qubits coupled to a common stripline microwave resonator. We discuss the separable and entangled behavior as well as the quantum and classical information deficits. Numerical computation of these quantities for several regimes is performed. We find that for less entangled states the partner can extract much more information by means of classical communication and local operations

description: Modern power systems present low levels of inertia due to the growing shares of converter-interfaced generation. Consequently, renewable energy sources are increasingly requested to provide frequency support. In addition, due to the inertia loss, the requirements regarding frequency containment reserves (FCR) are becoming tough to meet with traditional units such as hydro, whose non-minimum phase (NMP) characteristic reduces the closed-loop stability margins. The shortcomings of traditional synchronous generation motivates new protocols for fast frequency reserves (FFR). In this work, we design a wind turbine (WT) model useful for FFR. It is shown that the dynamical shortcomings of the WT, in providing steady-power or slow FCR support, are suitably described by a first-order transfer function with a slow NMP zero. The WT model is tested in a 5-machine representation of the Nordic synchronous grid. It is shown that the NMP model is useful for designing a controller that coordinates FFR from wind with slow FCR from hydro turbines. By simulating the disconnection of a 1400 MW importing dc link in a detailed nonlinear model, it is shown that the wind--hydro combination not only satisfies the latest regulations, but also presents a smooth response avoiding overshoot and secondary frequency dips during frequency recovery.

description: Questo articolo contiene la prima proposta di Nespor e Vogel riguardo alla fonologia prosodica della frase, una delle prime proposte teoriche sull'interfaccia tra sintassi e fonologia. I costituenti cui viene dato particolare rilievo sono il sintagma fonologico e il sintagma intonativo, ambedue motivati in base a fenomeni della fonologia frasale dell'italiano: il raddoppiamento sintattico, la ritrazione d'accento e la gorgia toscana. Questi fenomeni sono usati per definire il dominio dei costituenti prosodici. Vengono inoltre proposte delle regole per definire le prominenze relative al loro interno. Le proposte elaborate in questo articolo sono poi state in riprese nel principale lavoro delle autrici: il libro Prosodic Phonology del 1986, che verrà a breve ripubblicato.
