Diffusion In Wide Grain Boundaries, J. Mimkes, Manfred Wuttig Dec 1970

Diffusion In Wide Grain Boundaries, J. Mimkes, Manfred Wuttig

Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The rigorous solution of the grain-boundary diffusion problem has been approximated by a series expansion method. The calculations show that higher-order terms may be neglected in the bulk adjacent to the grain boundary. Thus, in this region Whipple's and Suzuoka's solutions represent a close approximation to the problem. Inside the grain boundary, however, higher-order approximations have to be taken into account. These approximations gain importance in the case of wide grain boundaries. The solutions obtained for an instantaneous source have been fitted to available grain-boundary diffusion data of Ni2+ in MgO at 1200°C. Numerical calculations give for the bulk diffusion …


Phase Equilibria And Thermodynamic Studies In The System Cao-Feo-Fe2o3-Sio2, M. Timucin, Arthur E. Morris Nov 1970

Doppler Shift In Frequency In The Transport Of Electromagnetic Waves Through An Underdense Plasma, Jerry Peacher, Kenneth M. Watson Oct 1970

Doppler Shift In Frequency In The Transport Of Electromagnetic Waves Through An Underdense Plasma, Jerry Peacher, Kenneth M. Watson

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

In an earlier publication, the validity of the radiation transport theory was studied for the calculation of multiple scattering of electromagnetic waves by a turbulent plasma. In the present paper, we extend the transport theory to include a description of the Doppler shift in frequency caused by electron motion.

The Fe-Ho Binary System, G. J. Roe, Thomas J. O'Keefe Sep 1970

The Fe-Ho Binary System, G. J. Roe, Thomas J. O'Keefe

Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The Fe-Ho phase diagram was determined on the basis of data obtained by X-ray diffraction, metallographic and differential thermal analysis techniques. Since emphasis was centered in the region where intermetallic compounds predominate, neither the iron nor holmium terminal regions were included in this study. Eutectic reactions were found to occur at 16.5 wt pct Fe and 875° C, 61 wt pct Fe and 1284° C, and 79 wt pct Fe and 1338° C. The congruent melting points of the compounds Ho6Fe23 and Ho2Fe17 were found to be 1332° and 1343° C, respectively. Two other intermetallic compounds were found, HoFe2 and …

Rotating Cylinder Apparatus For Rarefied Gas Flow Studies, Darryl J. Alofs, George S. Springer

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A rotating cylinder type apparatus is described, suitable for determining drag in cylindrical Couette flow of rarefied gases, and for evaluating tangential momentum accommodation coefficients at gas-solid boundaries. The apparatus is equipped with a damping device using diffusion pump oil for eliminating undesirable oscillations in the system. Tangential momentum accommodation coefficients of argon on aluminum were determined with an accuracy of ± 2.5%. The results obtained indicate that the apparatus may be used over a wide pressure range, corresponding to free molecule and continuum flow conditions.

Differential Cross Section For Charged A₁ Photoproduction Using The Regge Exchange Formalism, Keiji Kikkawa, Barbara N. Hale Feb 1970

Differential Cross Section For Charged A₁ Photoproduction Using The Regge Exchange Formalism, Keiji Kikkawa, Barbara N. Hale

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

The Regge-pole formalism is applied to the calculation of the differential cross section for A1+ photo-production in the region |tmin| < -t < 10µ2. The p, A1, A1-daughter, A2, and π trajectory contributions are considered, and use is made of chiral dynamics to estimate the unknown coupling constants. We find that the π and the A2 trajectories provide the dominant contributions.


A Heuristic Algorithm For Determining A Constructive Suboptimal Solution To The Combinatorial Problem Of Facility Allocation, Harry Kerry Edwards Jan 1970

A Heuristic Algorithm For Determining A Constructive Suboptimal Solution To The Combinatorial Problem Of Facility Allocation, Harry Kerry Edwards

Doctoral Dissertations

"The major problem in plant layout is to determine the most economical relative location of facilities. There are two distinct types of suboptimal solutions to this combinatorial problem: construction and improvement. The writer has developed Modular Allocation Technique (MAT) which is the first useful construction suboptimal technique. The MAT general algorithm, a theorem relating the MAT solution to the optimal solution and an example problem are given. A computer program has been written that will apply MAT to the allocation problem for a maximum of 40 facilities. Results are given to demonstrate how MAT solutions may be used as initial …


A Three-Dimensional Mathematical Simulator Of Multiphase Systems In A Petroleum Reservoir, Leonard Koederitz Jan 1970

A Three-Dimensional Mathematical Simulator Of Multiphase Systems In A Petroleum Reservoir, Leonard Koederitz

Doctoral Dissertations

"A generalized digital analysis for calculating three phase, three dimensional flow in reservoirs is developed. The computerized mathematical model is applicable to depletion drive, gas injection, water injection, and/or aquifer drive systems with modifications specific to the simulation criterion of that type of drive and includes fluid compressibility effects, gravity drainage and capillary pressure. The simulation allows arbitrary consideration of reservoir heterogeneity, geometry, well locations and rates of production. An innovation to the alternating direction technique for linear differential equations discussed by Brian is developed and employed in order to render the method of solution applicable to non-linear differential equations. …


Absolute Excitation Cross Sections Of He⁺ In 20-100 Kev He⁺-He Collisions Using Energy-Loss Spectrometry, Donald Roy Schoonover Jan 1970

Absolute Excitation Cross Sections Of He⁺ In 20-100 Kev He⁺-He Collisions Using Energy-Loss Spectrometry, Donald Roy Schoonover

Doctoral Dissertations

"Application of positive-ion energy-loss spectrometry has been extended to include experimental determination of absolute excitation cross sections of ground state helium ions. Helium ion-atom collisions were studied for impact energies ranging between 20-100 keV, in 10 keV intervals. The data were taken with an apparatus resolution between 0.6-o.8 eV FWHM. Cross sections for transitions from ground state to the second and third principal quantum levels of the ion plotted as a function of impact energy were still rapidly increasing at 100 keV. The cross sections at this energy were 1.64(± 0.28) x 10⁻¹⁸cm² for He⁺(l²s1/2) -> He⁺(n = …


Anodic Dissolution Of Zinc In Potassium Iodide-Potassium Iodate Solutions, Chi-Chiu Yao Jan 1970

Anodic Dissolution Of Zinc In Potassium Iodide-Potassium Iodate Solutions, Chi-Chiu Yao

Doctoral Dissertations

"The anodic dissolution of Zn was studied in KI-KIO₃ solutions at 25ºC. In I⁻ solutions, it was found that the apparent valence of Zn ions going into solution is approximately two. Smaller values are obtained in IO₃⁻ solutions, with the most pronounced changes occurring in the higher concentrations. An empirical equation is derived relating the apparent valence (or anode efficiency) to the current density and concentrations of IO₃⁻ and I⁻. An anodic dissolution mechanism is proposed"--Abstract, page 1.


Investigation Into The Monotonic Magnetostriction And Magnetic Breakdown In Cadmium, James Milo Carter Jan 1970

Investigation Into The Monotonic Magnetostriction And Magnetic Breakdown In Cadmium, James Milo Carter

Doctoral Dissertations

"Observations of the monotonic magnetostriction of cadmium at 4.2 K and in fields of 65 kilogauss have been made. The angular dependence of an extremal point (Hm) in the monotonic magnetostriction is found to follow inverse cosine behavior. The magnitude of Hm (27 kG) for fields parallel to [0001] is in fair agreement with the onset of γ1/3 from the breakdown of the trifoliate orbit, γ. The range of observation of hm coincides with the reported range of the trifoliate orbit. A "klink" in the monotonic magnetostriction is demonstrated. The "klink" field, Hk, …


Linear Regression Models Of Sound Velocity In The North Atlantic Ocean Below A Critical Depth, Richard Roland Kunkel Jan 1970

Linear Regression Models Of Sound Velocity In The North Atlantic Ocean Below A Critical Depth, Richard Roland Kunkel

Doctoral Dissertations

"Sound velocity models currently in use by the U. S. Navy require difficult data sampling at great expense. This study is to investigate the feasibility of a sound velocity model dependent only upon position that would be valid for a selected, reasonably large, near homogeneous area of the ocean. The most important position parameters are latitude, longitude, and depth. To accomplish this objective a critical depth of 2500 meters was established for an 8° by 20° rectangle of the Sargasso Sea which lies within the North Atlantic Ocean. The critical depth is defined as the depth at which the characteristics …
