Diffusion-Stress Coupling In Liquid Phase During Rapid Solidification Of Binary Mixtures, Sergey Sobolev

Sergey Sobolev

An analytical model has been developed to describe the diffusion-viscous stress coupling in the liquid phase during rapid solidification of binary mixtures. The model starts with a set of evolution equations for diffusion flux and viscous pressure tensor, based on extended irreversible thermodynamics. It has been demonstrated that the diffusion-stress coupling leads to non-Fickian diffusion effects in the liquid phase. With only diffusive dynamics, the model results in the nonlocal diffusion equations of parabolic type, which imply the transition to complete solute trapping only asymptotically at an infinite interface velocity. With the wavelike dynamics, the model leads to the nonlocal …

Impact Of Alkaline Doping And Reducing Conditions On Lafeo3, Geoffrey L. Beausoleil Ii

Geoffrey L Beausoleil II

Efficient and reliable materials for gas separation, syngas production, and hybrid nuclear power plants must be capable of reliably operating at a high-temperature range of 700-1000°C and under exposure to highly oxidizing and reducing conditions. Candidate materials for these applications include alkaline metal doped lanthanum ferrite.

In the first study, the impact of A site substitution by different alkaline metals on lanthanum ferrite (LMF, M=Ca, Sr, and Ba) was investigated. The study focused on thermal expansion near the Néel transition temperature and a magneto-elastic contribution to thermal expansion was identified for each sample. Iron oxidation, Fe3+ to Fe4+, was identified …

On The Transition From Diffusion-Limited To Kinetic-Limited Regimes Of Alloy Solidification, Sergey Sobolev

Sergey Sobolev

An abrupt transition from diffusion-limited solidification to diffusionless, kinetic-limited solidification with complete solute trapping is explained as a critical phenomenon which arises due to local non-equilibrium diffusion effects in the bulk liquid. The transition occurs when the interface velocityVpasses through the critical pointV=VD, where V=VDis the bulk liquid diffusive velocity. Analytical expressions are developed for velocity–temperature and velocity–undercooling functions, using local non-equilibrium partition coeffi-cient based on the Jackson et al. kinetic model and the local non-equilibrium diffusion model of Sobolev. The calculated functions dem-onstrate a sharp break in the velocity–undercooling and velocity–temperature relationships at the critical pointV=VD. At this point …

Cantor-Type Cylindrical-Coordinate Method For Differential Equations With Local Fractional Derivatives, Xiao-Jun Yang

Xiao-Jun Yang

In this Letter, we propose to use the Cantor-type cylindrical-coordinate method in order to investigate a family of local fractional differential operators on Cantor sets. Some testing examples are given to illustrate the capability of the proposed method for the heat-conduction equation on a Cantor set and the damped wave equation in fractal strings. It is seen to be a powerful tool to convert differential equations on Cantor sets from Cantorian-coordinate systems to Cantor-type cylindrical-coordinate systems.

Local Nonequilibrium Solute Trapping Model For Non-Planar Interface, Sergey Sobolev

Sergey Sobolev

A generalized solute trapping model was proposed incorporating the dependency on interfacial normal velocity along the dendrite side, as an extension of the continuous growth model modified by Sobolev with the local nonequilibrium diffusion model (LNDM). The present model predicts that the transition to diffusionless solidification is not sharp, but occurs in a range of velocities. Analysis indicates that for local nonequilibrium solute diffusion in bulk liquid the effect of the interfacial normal velocity dependency on solute partitioning is considerable.

A Cauchy Problem For Some Local Fractional Abstract Differential Equation With Fractal Conditions, Yang Xiaojun, Zhong Weiping, Gao Feng

Xiao-Jun Yang

Fractional calculus is an important method for mathematics and engineering [1-24]. In this paper, we review the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the local fractional differential equation with fractal conditions \[ D^\alpha x\left( t \right)=f\left( {t,x\left( t \right)} \right),t\in \left[ {0,T} \right], x\left( {t_0 } \right)=x_0 , \] where $0<\alpha \le 1$ in a generalized Banach space. We use some new tools from Local Fractional Functional Analysis [25, 26] to obtain the results.

Challenges And Prospects Of Processes Utilising Carbonic Anhydrase For Co2 Separation, Patrycja Szeligiewicz, Wojciech M. Budzianowski

Wojciech Budzianowski

This article provides an analysis of processes for separation CO2 by using carbonic anhydrase enzyme with particular emphasis on reactive-membrane solutions. Three available processes are characterised. Main challenges and prospects are given. It is found that in view of numerous challenges practical applications of these processes will be difficult in near future. Further research is therefore needed for improving existing processes through finding methods for eliminating their main drawbacks such as short lifetime of carbonic anhydrase or low resistance of reactive membrane systems to impurities contained in flue gases from power plants.

The Discrete Yang-Fourier Transforms In Fractal Space, Yang Xiao-Jun

Xiao-Jun Yang

The Yang-Fourier transform (YFT) in fractal space is a generation of Fourier transform based on the local fractional calculus. The discrete Yang-Fourier transform (DYFT) is a specific kind of the approximation of discrete transform, used in Yang-Fourier transform in fractal space. This paper points out new standard forms of discrete Yang-Fourier transforms (DYFT) of fractal signals, and both properties and theorems are investigated in detail.

Xiao-Jun Yang

Local fractional derivative and integrals are revealed as one of useful tools to deal with everywhere continuous but nowhere differentiable functions in fractal areas ranging from fundamental science to engineering. In this paper, a generalized Newton iteration method derived from the generalized local fractional Taylor series with the local fractional derivatives is reviewed. Operators on real line numbers on a fractal space are induced from Cantor set to fractional set. Existence for a generalized fixed point on generalized metric spaces may take place.

In the present paper, local fractional continuous non-differentiable functions in fractal space are investigated, and the control method for processing dynamic systems in fractal space are proposed using the Yang-Fourier transform based on the local fractional calculus. Two illustrative paradigms for control problems in fractal space are given to elaborate the accuracy and reliable results.

Insights Into The Power Law Relationships That Describe Mass Deposition Rates During Electrospinning, Jonathan J. Stanger, Nick Tucker, Simon Fullick, Mathieu Sellier, Mark P. Staiger

Jonathan J Stanger

This work explores how in electrospinning, mass deposition rate and electric current relate to applied voltage and electrode separation, factors give a range of applied electric fields. Mass deposition rate was measured by quantifying the rate of dry fibre deposited over time. Electric current was measured using a current feedback from the high voltage supply. The deposition of fibre was observed to occur at a constant rate for deposition times of up to 30 min. Both the mass deposition rate and electric current were found to vary with the applied voltage according to a power law. The relationship between the …

Jonathan J Stanger

This study investigates the magnitude of movement of the area of deposition of electrospun fibres in response to an applied auxiliary electric field. The auxiliary field is generated by two pairs of rod electrodes positioned adjacent and parallel to the line of flight of the spun fibre. The changes in shape of the deposition area and the degree of movement of the deposition area are quantified by optical scanning and image analysis. A linear response was observed between the magnitude of movement of the deposition area and voltage difference between the auxiliary and deposition electrodes. A squeezing effect which changed …
