Dendrite Tip Radii In Directionally Solidified Pb-8.4-Atmospheric-Percent-Au, Surendra N. Tewari Dec 1990

Dendrite Tip Radii In Directionally Solidified Pb-8.4-Atmospheric-Percent-Au, Surendra N. Tewari

Chemical & Biomedical Engineering Faculty Publications

The cell/dendrite tip radii in directionally solidified Pb-8.4at.%Au have been investigated as a function of the growth speed and thermal gradient in the liquid at the tip. Dendrite growth models are not able to predict quantitatively the tip radii and tip compositions separately because of the occurrence of thermosolutal convection during growth. However, the relationship between the destabilizing solutal gradient, the stabilizing thermal gradient and the capillarity at the tip assumed using the ''marginal stability'' criterion is supported by the experimental data.

Nonlinearity Parameters Of Polymers, Meng-Chou Wu Jan 1989

Nonlinearity Parameters Of Polymers, Meng-Chou Wu

Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects

Three types of acoustic nonlinearity parameters for solids are discussed. The results of measurements of these parameters for three polymers--polymethyl methacrylate, Polystyrene, and polysulfone--are presented.;The author has developed a new technique, using piezoelectric transducers directly bonded to the specimens, which allows the measurements of fundamental and second harmonics generated in the solids, and thereby the determination of nonlinearity parameter {dollar}\beta\sb3{dollar}, which is the ratio of a linear combination of second- and third-order elastic coefficients to the second-order elastic coefficient.;The second nonlinearity parameter, B/A can be determined from the temperature and pressure derivatives of the sound velocity. We derive its exact …

Production Of Anhydrous 1,4-Dioxane, Jean Yamanis Dec 1982

Production Of Anhydrous 1,4-Dioxane, Jean Yamanis

Chemical and Materials Engineering Faculty Patents

This invention relates to the production of anhydrous 1,4-dioxane by the dimerization of ethylene oxide in the presence of an acidic type of cation exchanger, preferably an acidic cation exchanger resin having sulfonic acid groups associated therewith. The 1,4-dioxane is formed by contacting ethylene oxide in the liquid phase with an acidic-type cation exchanger at a first temperature and for a time sufficient to yield a reaction product of the ethylene oxide and the cation exchanger, and thereafter heating the reaction product at a second temperature higher than the first temperature and for a time period sufficient to dissociate the …
