Some techniques for solving linear equation systems with guarantee

Methods are described for solving a system of linear equations with error bounds. Rectangular and spherical intervals ofR ⁿ are used combined. The objective is to get guaranteed accuracy with a minimal effort of computing time.     

Darstellung komplexer Betriebsschlacken des LD-Verfahrens im Quasidreistoffsystem

Aus der Darstellung der Schlackenzusammensetzungen im Quasidreistoffsystem ist die Lage der Schlacken zur Kalksättigungslinie deutlich zu erkennen. Die Sublanzenschlacken lassen den Schlackenweg während der letzten Blasminuten erkennen, durch Bodenspülung und Nachspülen wird eine geringe Annäherung an die Kalksättigungslinie erreicht. Aus der Lage der Schlacken im Quasidreistoffsystem läßt sich der Einfluß der Temperatur auf den Verlauf der Kalksättigung entlang unterschiedlicher T-X-Schnitte bestimmen.

The inhibitive effect of extraneous ion addition on stress corrosion cracking of alpha-brass

The addition of ammonium chloride, cobalt sulphate, cesium sulphate and ethylene diamine to a Mattsson solution and the addition of ammonium sulphate to the Pugh solution have been found to produce an inhibitive effect on the stress corrosion cracking of alpha-brass in these solutions. Ammonium chloride and ammonium sulphate additions affect the tarnish formation on the specimen as well as the cracking pattern. Electrochemical polarization studies have also been carried out with these two additives. The observations have been explained in the light of adsorption of these ionic species at selected sites on the metal surface and their possible interference with the cathodic reactions.     

Towards improved design of boring bars part 1: Dynamic cutting force model with continuous system analysis for the boring bar performance

The vibrational amplitude is generally large in the case of a boring bar due to its slenderness. A dynamic cutting force model has been presented to take this large amplitude into account. The boring bar is then modelled as a cantilever with this dynamic force acting at the free end and a generalized continuous system model is obtained. This model is solved for the specific case of boring with a zero side cutting edge angle for which published results are available. A reasonably close agreement is found between the proposed model and the experimental results.     

Coordination polymers of Zn(II) and N,N'-bis (carboxymethyl) dithiooxamide

Summary Coordination polymers were synthesized using N,N'-Bis (carboxymethyl) dithiooxamide (NN' CMDTO) and Zinc(II) salts. The complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectral studies, TGA and viscosity measurements. In the proposed structures the ligand was supposed to be coordinated to metal through sulphur and oxygen.

Carbon Aerogels as Electrode Material in Supercapacitors

Due to their large specific surface area and their high electrical conductivity carbon aerogels are promising materials for electrodes in electrochemical double-layer capacitors (supercapacitor). The carbon aerogels were made via pyrolysis of resorcinol formaldehyde aerogels. The latter were prepared by supercritical and subcritical drying as well. The important findings of our investigation were, that the highest capacities of 46 F/cm³ were measured for samples with a density of about 800 kg/m³ pyrolyzed at 800°C. Also it was shown that RF-gels with molar resorcinol/catalyst ratios 1000 or higher can be dried subcritically without cracking or significant shrinkage. Carbon aerogels derived from these RF-aerogels have a small mesopore surface area, however an especially large micropore area. They provide electrical capacities which are most suitable for their use in supercapacitors.     

Hot slag resistance of refractories

Conclusions It is proposed to test refractories for hot-slag resistance by which is meant the complex property typifying the wear resistance of refractories with the single-sided action of high temperature and slags and subsequent sharp cooling.A laboratory gas-oxygen furnace design was developed for testing the slag resistance with one-sided heating with the aim of forming zones in the specimens.The spalling resistance of zonal magnesite-chromite and periclase-spinel goods was determined.According to the slag resistance and operating spalling resistance the periclase-spinel refractories are better than the spalling-resistant magnesite-chromite.
