Signature of Meyer-Neldel compensation rule in iso-conversional crystallization under the influence of γ-ray irradiation

In the current article, the influence of three different doses of gamma-rays on the thermally assisted crystal growth in a novel ternary chalcogenide glassy Se₇₈Te₂₀Sn₂ semiconductor has been reported in terms of the re-crystallization. The iso-conversional kinetic approach is used in the present study. The variation of crystal growth rate with temperature obeys the Arrhenius relation for all the doses of gamma-rays irradiation. Further analysis confirms that pre-factor K₀ of crystal growth rate and the corresponding energy ΔE involved in thermally governed crystallization follows Meyer-Neldel compensation rule (MNCR). Further, we have observed a linear correlation i.e., Further Meyer-Neldel compensation rule (FMNCR) between Meyer-Neldel pre-factor K₀₀ and Meyer-Neldel energy kT₀. The observed correlations between these significant parameters (MNCR between K₀ & ΔE and FMNCR between K₀₀ & kT₀) may open a new gateway for revealing the external effects on crystal growth rate during the iso-conversional analysis of crystallization kinetics.     

Case history on failure of a 67 M tall reinforced soil slope

Construction of this 67 m high RSS was completed in December 2006. After seven years in-service, a tension crack was observed at the top of the slope. In March 2015 this RSS structure catastrophically collapsed. This RSS structure collapsed in a compound failure mode; as the failure plane passed beneath, partially behind, and partially through the reinforced soil mass. The failure plane beneath the RSS was along a shale-claystone interface. The failure surface partially behind the RSS was along sandstone bedrock with water-seeping bedding planes dipping out of the rock mass. The failure surface through the upper portion of the RSS is where the geogrid reinforcement was overwhelmed by stresses originating from underlying deformation. The RSS collapse occurred after 8.3 years in-service as the shear strength along the shale-claystone interface decreased and approached the fully softened strength. The primary causative factors of this failure are: (i) an insufficient subsurface investigation program and interpretation of data for design and detailing; (ii) insufficient specifications and construction plan details for both foundation preparation and rock backcut benching; (iii) insufficient foundation preparation and rock backcut benching during construction; and (iv) adaptations to the design made during construction.     

A review on spindle thermal error compensation in machine tools

Thermal error caused by the thermal deformation is one of the most significant factors influencing the accuracy of the machine tool. Among all the heat sources which lead to the thermal distortions, the spindle is the main one. This paper presents an overview of the research about the compensation of the spindle thermal error. Thermal error compensation is considered as a more convenient, effective and cost-efficient way to reduce the thermal error compared with other thermal error control and reduction methods. Based on the analytical calculation, numerical analysis and experimental tests of the spindle thermal error, the thermal error models are established and then applied for implementing the thermal error compensation. Different kinds of methods adopted in testing, modeling and compensating are listed and discussed. In addition, because the thermal key points are vital to the temperature testing, thermal error modeling, and even influence the effectiveness of compensation, various approaches of selecting thermal key points are introduced as well. This paper aims to give a basic introduction of the whole process of the spindle thermal error compensation and presents a summary of methods applied on different topics of it.     

Water chemistry,solution resistivity,and oxygen reduction reaction in simulated primary coolant of pressurized water reactors

The effect of temperature (25 °C–300 °C) on the ohmic potential drop (ΔE_Ω) and resistivity (R_sol) of a simulated primary coolant of the pressurized water reactors was investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and galvanostatic potentiometry. The variations in the conductivity and pH of the solution showed that by increasing the temperature the magnitude of the R_sol and therefore ΔE_Ω of the system first decreases rapidly (until ~150 °C) and then reaches a relatively stable plateau value. Increasing the pressure of the system decreased the magnitude of the R_sol in the oxygenated coolant. Investigation of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on platinum (Pt), 316L stainless steel (SS), Alloy 690, and carbon steel revealed the great effect of water chemistry, in particular pH on the rate of the ORR on these materials. OH^? adsorption on Pt reduced the rate of the ORR on this metal at temperatures higher than ~100 °C. Finally, it was found that higher H₃O⁺ concentrations reduce the rate of the ORR on iron‐ and nickel‐based alloys, while increasing the OH^? concentration at temperatures higher than ~150 °C accelerates the rate of the ORR on these alloys.     

Low-power class-AB 4th-order low-pass filter based on current conveyors with dynamic mismatch compensation of biasing errors

A 4^th-order Butterworth class-AB current-mode low-pass filter is proposed, based on second-generation Current Conveyors (CCII). Class-AB operation allows high-power efficiency and driving large loads with small quiescent currents. The CCII topology uses the class-AB output buffer with error amplifiers: this topology is known to be sensitive to mismatch errors, which cause offsets in the error amplifiers, affecting the biasing current of the stage. This problem is solved via a control loop, which compensates the effect of mismatches. The technique is shown to be effective in Monte Carlo simulations with process variations and mismatches. Simulations have been carried out in 40 nm CMOS technology. The proposed filter achieves good power efficiency, thanks to the class-AB architecture, and good dynamic range, thanks to the closed-loop output buffer. A cut-off frequency of 6 MHz, with 184 μW of total quiescent power consumption, is achieved, with a THD of -55 dB and a SNR of 49 dB.

Friction compensation controller for load varying machine tool feed drive

The load applied to a machine tool feed drive changes during the machining process as material is removed. This load change alters the Coulomb friction of the feed drive. Because Coulomb friction accounts for a large part of the total friction the friction compensation control accuracy of the feed drives is limited if this nonlinear change in the applied load is not considered. This paper presents a new friction compensation method that estimates the machine tool load in real time and considers its effect on friction characteristics. A friction observer based on a Kalman filter with load estimation is proposed for friction compensation control considering the applied load change. A specially designed feed drive testbed that enables the applied load to be modified easily was constructed for experimental verification. Control performance and friction estimation accuracy are demonstrated experimentally using the testbed.
