Impact-Induced delamination in [05, 905, 05] carbon fiber/polyetheretherketone composite laminates

This paper reports both experimental and numerical investigations on delamination mechanisms in [0₅, 90₅, 0₅] carbon fiber(CF)/poly(etheretherketone) (PEEK) laminate subjected to low-velocity impact. It was found that the CF/PEEK composite exhibits the same damage mechanisms as epoxy-based composites, but superior delamination resistance. For the crossply laminate, the impact delamination results from a Mode II interlaminar fracture process, and a close association exists between the interlaminar shear stress field and the delamination growth. The prediction of impact-induced delamination sizes is discussed.     

Reproductive and thyroid hormone levels in rats following 90-day dietary exposure to PCB 28 (2,4,4''-trichlorobiphenyl) or PCB 77 (3,3''4,4''-tetrachlorobiphenyl)

It has been reported that suramin, an anthelminthic, trypanocidal agent and an inhibitor of P2 receptors, may antagonise N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) subtype of the excitatory amino acid receptors. Both NMDA receptors and P2X subclass of P2 receptors are ligand-gated Ca2+-selective channels and, since the increased influx of Ca2+ into neurons has been linked to neurotoxicity, simultaneous inhibition of P2X and NMDA receptors in vivo by suramin could represent an effective neuroprotective treatment. We have found that suramin inhibited the binding of [3H]CGP 39653 to NMDA receptor binding sites in vitro and reduced the frequency of NMDA channel openings in patch-clamp studies. Suramin (1 mM) had no effect on [3H]kainate binding in vitro. In vivo, intracerebroventricular (I.C.V.) injections of suramin (70 nmol/brain) antagonised convulsive effects of the NMDA agonist (RS)-(tetrazol-5-yl)-glycine (TZG, LY 285265). Suramin, however, did not prevent neurotoxic lesions in the hippocampus caused by I.C.V. administration of TZG. Increasing the dose of suramin resulted in death from severe respiratory depression.     

Algorithms for supporting disconnected write operations for wireless Web access in mobile client-server environments

In a wireless mobile client-server environment, a mobile user may voluntarily disconnect itself from the Web server to save its battery life and avoid high communication prices. To allow Web pages to be updated while the mobile user is disconnected from the Web server, updates can be staged in the mobile host and propagated back to the Web server upon reconnection. In this paper, we analyze algorithms for supporting disconnected write operations for wireless Web access and develop a performance model to identify the optimal length of the disconnection period under which the cost of update propagation is minimized. The analysis result is particularly applicable to Web applications which allow wireless mobile users to modify Web contents while on the move. We show how the result can be applied to real-time Web applications such that the mobile user can determine the longest disconnection period such that it can still propagate updates to the server before the deadline so that a minimum communication cost is incurred.

Molecular dynamics study on local structure of amorphous and liquid Al2O3

Microscopic features of liquid and amorphous alumina (Al₂O₃) were simulated by molecular dynamics calculations. The simulations were performed in an orthorhombic cell with 3000 particles using the Born-Mayer potential at temperatures of 0, 2500, 2700, and 3000 K under constant pressure. It was found that a large cluster of pores contained several thousand spherical pores, which were formed with radii larger than 0.73 Å. The observed variations of Al₂O₃ structures with atomic arrangements of AlO_x (x=3, 4, 5, and 6) are discussed.     

Synthesis of hyperbranched conjugated polymers based on 3-hexylthiophene,triphenylamine and benzo [c] [1,2,5] thiadiazole moieties: convenient synthesis through suzuki polymerization and impact of structures on optical properties

Novel 3-hexylthiophene-based hyperbranched conjugated polymers containing triphenylamine and benzo [c] [1, 2, 5] thiadiazole moieties were synthesized by Suzuki coupling polymerization of tris (4-bromophenyl) amine, 2,2′-(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) bis(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane) and 4,7-dibromobenzo [c] [1, 2, 5] thiadiazole. Organic solvent-soluble polymers with number-average molecular weights of 24,000 and 42,000 g/mol were obtained in 54–57 % yields. Their structures, molecular weights and thermal properties were characterized via proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopies, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and wide-angle powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements. Optical investigation by UV–vis and fluorescence spectroscopies revealed that the incorporation of the benzo [c] [1, 2, 5] thiadiazole moiety in the hyperbranched polymer structure resulted in a red-shift of the maximum absorption wavelength and an increase in the solution-photoluminescence quantum yield, indicating an extension of the conjugation length. The UV–vis, DSC and XRD results demonstrated that the aggregation of conjugated polymer chains could effectively be reduced by the hyperbranched structures and that conjugation length extension via the introduction of benzo [c] [1, 2, 5] thiadiazole units led to the coexistence of both crystalline and amorphous phases in the solid state and in solution upon addition of a non-solvent.     

Different Directions of Switching of Chromium Oxide Thin Films

We have investigated the switching behavior of as-deposited CrO _x and post-annealed CrO _y films by use of a variety of electrodes (top electrode Ag, Ti; bottom electrode Pt, fluorine tin oxide (FTO)). Resistance switching is highly dependent on electrode material and post-annealing treatment. Among Pt devices, I–V hysteresis was observed for the Ag/CrO _x /Pt device only; no resistance switching was observed for Ag/CrO _y /Pt, Ti/CrO _x /Pt, and Ti/CrO _y /Pt devices. Among FTO devices, I–V hysteresis was observed for the Ag/CrO _x /FTO device whereas I–V hysteresis with the opposite switching direction was observed for Ag/CrO _y /FTO, Ti/CrO _x /FTO, and Ti/CrO _y /FTO devices. The direction of switching depends not only on electrode material but also on post-annealing treatment, which affects the density of grain boundaries. Thus, the density of grain boundaries determines the type of charge carrier involved in the switching process. For as-deposited CrO _x films with a high density of grain boundaries Ag filament paths mediated by electrochemical redox reaction were observed, irrespective of bottom electrode material (Pt or FTO). Post-annealed CrO _y films with a low density of grain boundaries suppressed electrochemical redox reaction in the Ag/CrO _y /Pt device but promoted short-range movement of O^2? ions through the bottom interface, resulting in resistance switching in the Ag/CrO _y /FTO device. Electrochemical redox reaction-controlled resistance switching occurred solely in oxides with a high density of grain boundaries or dislocations.
