The aim of this work is to study the infrared drying and curing kinetics of a model water-based epoxy-amine painting coaled on iron support. After a presentation of the model painting elaborated in our laboratory, experimental and theoretical data of the curing kinetics are presented. Then, we described the special laboratory-scale infrared dryer set up in our laboratory. This dryer was able to carry on drying experiments with uniform infrared flux densities between 0 to 25 kW,m-2 The study of the painting drying as a function of the infrared flux density and of the film thickness shows the influence of these two main physical parameters. 相似文献
Hydrodynamic and mass transfer parameters (pressure drop, gas and liquid hold-up, liquid-solid mass transfer coefficients) have been measured for porous electrodes with upward or downward co-current gas-liquid flow by means of several electrochemical techniques. The influence of the most important parameters (packing diameter, gas and liquid flow rates) and of the hydrodynamic flow regimes, has been studied. It is found that in the trickle flow regime the limiting current densities depend only on the liquid flow rates (with no measurable influence of the gas). In the upward flow configuration, the strong turbulence generated by the ascending gas bubbles leads to a sharp increase of current densities with the gas flow rate. A comparison between both configurations is presented. 相似文献
In the face of increasingly prominent cyber security issues, the organization of cyber team analysts has become crucial to thwart cyber threats. Few studies have examined the functioning of the team and the interaction between individuals in a cyber defense context and how the context influences team adaptation. The present study investigates team cognition in a cyber defense context and in particular the nature of task- or team-centered communication among analysts during a cyber defense simulation exercise. Results indicate that markers of situation assessment and shared mental models are both strategically present and linked. Nevertheless, the frequency of these markers varies depending on the quantity and quality of problems encountered; in particular, variations in social support behaviors are observed. Decreasing social support behaviors during high level activities suggests the adaptation of social behaviors depending on the threats and attacks on the system. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed in terms of theories and potential consequences for strategic adaptation and team resilience.
This study evaluated the effectiveness and efficiency of two food-grade multifunctional epoxies chain extenders (CE) in branching PLA and improving its foamability. Both CE grades were effective in branching PLA causing increased end mixing torque, shear, elongational viscosities, molecular weight but decreased crystallinity of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) with CE content, due to chain entanglements. CE with low epoxy equivalent weight (EEW) was more efficient than the counterpart with high EEW due to its high reactivity. Neat PLA foams showed poor cell morphology with areas without nucleated cells and had a low expansion, owing to its low elongational viscosity. By contrast, there was a considerable change in the morphology of the PLA foam structure caused by its branching. Chain-extended PLA foams had uniform cell morphology with a high void fraction (up to ~85%) and expansion ratio (an eightfold expansion over unfoamed PLA) due to their high elongational viscosities, suggesting that melt properties of branched PLA were appropriate for optimum cell growth and stabilization during foaming. Overall, CE with low EEW was the most effective grade and 0.25% the optimum content that provided appropriate melt viscosity to produce PLA foams with a homogeneous structure, fine cells, high void fraction, high volume expansion ratio, and cell-population density. 相似文献
We have fabricated and characterized an n-doped InSb Faraday isolator in the mid-IR range (9.2 μm). A high isolation ratio (31(2) dB) and low insertion loss (1.9(3) dB) are obtained. Temperature dependance is analyzed. Further possible improvements are discussed, including the realization of a two-stage isolator. A similar design can be used to cover a wide wavelength range (λ ~ 7.5-30 μm). 相似文献
We propose a new approach for signal reconstruction from non-uniform samples, without any constraint on their locations. We look for a function that minimizes a classical regularized least-squares criterion, but with the additional constraint that the solution lies in a chosen linear shift-invariant space—typically, a spline space. In comparison with a pure variational treatment involving radial basis functions, our approach is resolution dependent; an important feature for many applications. Moreover, the solution can be computed exactly by a fast non-iterative algorithm, that exploits at best the particular structure of the problem. 相似文献
