Global behavior of the diffusion coefficient for the Van Der Waals binary mixture

We describe the general dependence of the diffusion coefficient associated with the Van der Waals binary mixture on the temperature, number densities, and relative strengths of molecular interaction parameters. The task is facilitated by the fact that for Kac-type intermolecular potentials, in the long-range limit, the diffusion coefficient becomes simply related to the product of a partial compressibility and the curvature of the equilibrium free energy in the space of number densities. Therefore the different kinds of behavior found can be classified according to the scheme of Scott and Van Konynenburg for the global phase diagram of the same model mixture.Paper presented at the Tenth Symposium on Thermophysical Properties, June 20–23, 1988, Gaithersburg, Maryland, U.S.A.     

Impact of superplasticizer concentration and of ultra-fine particles on the rheological behaviour of dense mortar suspensions

This work aims at investigating the impact of the addition of superplasticizer and of ultra-fine particles, namely of silica fume and of precipitated titania, on the rheological behaviour of water-lean mortar pastes. The pastes are characterised in terms of their spread, their flowing behaviour and by means of performing a shear test, giving access to viscosity/shear gradient correlations. Adding superplasticizer is shown to shift the onset of shear thickening of the referring pastes to higher shear rates and to attenuate its otherwise rapid evolution, possibly by means of favouring steric particle-particle interactions. The workability of these mortars, which is characterised in terms of spread values and draining, is also improved. For the case of fly ash based mortars, adding ultra-fine particles is another way of (slightly) “retarding” shear thickening and of attenuating its evolution, possibly because of resulting in - on the average - lower hydrodynamic forces and reduced attractive Van der Waals interactions between particles. However, at the same time these mortars are characterised by a worsening in workability which is attributed to the huge amount of surface area provided by the ultra-fines.     

Phase diagrams beyond the critical point

Following a path in the usual p‐T‐diagrams of one‐component systems via the supercritical region it seems that one can make a transition from the liquid to the gas phase (and in reverse) without traversing a phase boundary curve, whereas in the sub‐critical region one clearly has to pass a phase boundary curve. To solve this paradox situation, the phase diagrams of one‐component systems are analyzed with respect to the phase transition from the liquid to the gas state in the sub‐ and supercritical range. It is shown that the critical point is not an isolated point or an end point on the phase boundary curve between the gaseous and the liquid phase in a p‐T‐diagram. Instead, it marks on the boundary curve just the transition between the section of a first order phase transition in the sub‐critical range and the section of a second or higher order phase transition in the supercritical range. Thus, the present phase diagrams of one‐component systems are incomplete with respect to the phase boundary curve between liquid and gas in the supercritical region. The result is illustrated using the model of a van der Waals gas.     

A semi‐analytical locally transversal linearization method for non‐linear dynamical systems

An numeric‐analytical, implicit and local linearization methodology, called the locally transversal linearization (LTL), is developed in the present paper for analyses and simulations of non‐linear oscillators. The LTL principle is based on deriving the locally linearized equations in such a way that the tangent space of the linearized equations transversally intersects that of the given non‐linear dynamical system at that particular point in the state space where the solution vector is sought. For purposes of numerical implementation, two different numerical schemes, namely LTL‐1 and LTL‐2 schemes, based on the LTL methodology are presented. Both LTL‐1 and LTL‐2 procedures finally reduce the given set of non‐linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) to a set of transcendental algebraic equations valid over a short interval of time or over a short segment of the evolving trajectories as projected on the phase space. While in the LTL‐1 scheme the desired solution vector at a forward time point enters the linearized differential equations as an unknown parameter, in the LTL‐2 scheme a set of unknown residues enters the linearized system as parameters. A limited set of examples involving a few well‐known single‐degree‐of‐freedom (SDOF) non‐linear oscillators indicate that the LTL methodology is capable of accurately predicting many complicated non‐linear response patterns, including limit cycles, quasi‐periodic orbits and even strange attractors.

A Novel Test for the Appraisal of Solid/Solid Interfacial Interactions

The Johnson, Kendall and Roberts (JKR) technique has been used with considerable success for assessing solid/solid interfacial interactions over the past 25 years or so. Nevertheless, the contact zone between the two spherical solids is often small and the energy of adhesion scales with the cube of the contact radius (at low load), thus potentially magnifying errors in adhesion assessment. The theoretical aspects of a novel technique are presented here, in which a hollow, slightly inflated, spherical membrane replaces a full sphere, and is placed in contact with a flat rigid solid. A judicious choice of experimental conditions should lead to increased contact radius and the energy of adhesion scales with its square (at low load), thus reducing possible errors. An added advantage is that the effective elasticity of the sphere depends on internal gas pressure. Thus surface and bulk effects are decoupled.

Buckling analysis of multi-walled carbon nanotubes under combined loading considering the effect of small length scale

The torsional and axially compressed buckling of an individual embedded multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNTs) subjected to an internal and/or external radial pressure was investigated in this study. The emphasis is placed on new physical phenomena which are due to both the small length scale and the surrounding elastic medium. Multiwall carbon nanotubes which are considered in this study are classified into three categories based on the radius to thickness ratio, namely, thin, thick, and almost solid. Explicit formulas are derived for the van der Waals (vdW) interaction between any two layers of an MWNT based on the continuum cylindrical shell model. In most of the previous studies, the vdW interaction between two adjacent layers was considered only and the vdW interaction among other layers was neglected. Moreover, in these works, the vdW interaction coefficient was treated as a constant that was independent of the radii of the tubes. However, in the present model the vdW interaction coefficients are considered to be dependent on the change of interlayer spacing and the radii of the tubes. The effect of the small length scale is also considered in the present formulation. The results show that there is a unique buckling mode (m,n) corresponding to the critical shear stress. This result is obviously different from what is expected for the pure axially compressed buckling of an individual multi-walled carbon nanotube.     

Thermal Conductivity Prediction of Thermally Conductive,Electrically Insulating Materials under van der Waals Interactions

The thermal transport phenomenon in small-scale heterogeneous composites is essentially controlled by van der Waals interactions. In this article, thermal conductivity of nanocomposites with 33 wt% crystallized silicon dioxide is four times higher than that of epoxy (EP) resin composites. Nanocomposites with 33 wt% boron carbide exhibit seven times higher thermal conductivity than pure EP. Pal and Lewis-Nielsen multiscale models were used to infer that distance-associated van der Waals interactions vary between composites with different weight fractions. Such variation consequently affects the thermal conductivity of the composites. Scanning electron microscope images of crystallized silicon dioxide/EP composites provide evidence of our reasonable and accurate inferences with regard to the thermal conduction mechanism. Experimental values confirm that the Pal model is superior to the Lewis-Nielsen model. The observed enhancement in thermal conductivity indicates important implications for the development of highly and thermally conductive electrically insulating materials. Results of this study can also be considered to improve modeling for thermal conductivity under van der Waals interactions.
