Effects of some factors on centrifugal casting of oxide ceramics

Conclusions It is shown that in technically suitable conditions for shaping blanks by centrifugal casting, the deposition of the particles occurs with a streamline schedule, and the coarse fractions are deposited during acceleration of the rotation of the mold. The main factor influencing the density of the finely dispersed blanks is the duration of rotation, and for systems containing coarse filler, centrifugal acceleration. Regulating the dimensions (wall thickness) of the blank is possible by altering the concentration of solid phase in the slip and the degree of filling of the mold with it.Translated from Ogneupory, No. 1, pp. 22–24, January, 1992.

The influence of NaCl and CO2 on the atmospheric corrosion of magnesium alloy AZ91

The influence of NaCl and CO₂ on the atmospheric corrosion of magnesium alloy AZ91 is studied in the laboratory. Samples were exposed under carefully controlled air and flow conditions; the relative humidity was 95%, the temperature was 22.0°C and the concentration of CO₂ was < 1 ppm or 350 ppm. Different amounts of sodium chloride (0–70 μg/cm²) were added before exposure. The corrosion products were analyzed by gravimetry, ion chromatography, X‐ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Mass gain and metal loss results are reported. The combination of high humidity and NaCl is very corrosive towards AZ91. However, the NaCl‐induced corrosion is inhibited by ambient concentrations of CO₂. Exposure in the absence of CO₂ gives rise to heavy pitting, with brucite, Mg(OH)₂, being the dominant corrosion product. In the presence of CO₂ a layer of hydrated magnesium hydroxy carbonate, Mg₅(CO₃)₄(OH)₂ · 5 H₂O forms. A tentative corrosion mechanism is presented that explains the behavior in the two environments.

Non-quasi-static models including all injection levels and DC, AC,and transient emitter crowding in bipolar transistors

Two-dimensional equivalent-circuit models for bipolar junction transistors are systematically derived by solving the continuity equations for DC, AC, and transient excitations. These models take into account carrier propagation delay, all injection levels, as well as exponential doping profiles. They include analytically DC, AC, and transient emitter crowding in a more detailed and accurate manner than previously available. Extensions of the models to accommodate arbitrarily doped and heavily doped quasi-neutral layers and to include energy-gap narrowing due to the electron-hole plasma present at high current density are described. The analysis leads to compact large- and small-signal equivalent-circuit lumped models, suitable for use in circuit simulators such as SPICE. The analytical solutions obtained reveal the two-dimensional distribution of the current and carrier densities in the intrinsic base layer and the onset of emitter crowding. They also provide information for the extraction of the intrinsic base resistance. Several assumptions made in the derivations are assessed by the computer program PISCES. The methods presented apply to both homojunction and heterojunction bipolar transistors     

Restricted proteolysis of legumin of broad beans: Effect on thermodynamic properties of aqueous solutions and interaction with ficoll

Thermodynamic properties of aqueous solutions of both native and modified legumin of broad beans (Vicia faba L.) have been examined. A restricted trypsin-induced proteolysis was used to modify protein structure. Evaluation of protein affinity to ficoll in aqueous solutions showed that modified protein possessed higher hydrophilicity. Thermodynamic properties of diluted solutions were used to predict the phase behaviour in concentrated systems containing protein and ficoll. At specific concentrations of native legumin, the system can separate in two phases, whereas in the case of modified protein the single-phase behaviour of the system was predicted for any concentrations of both components. The experimental data obtained in concentrated systems confirmed predictions of thermodynamic analysis of diluted solutions.

A new simplified two-dimensional model for the threshold voltage ofMOSFET's with nonuniformly doped substrate

A new simplified two-dimensional model for the threshold voltage of MOSFETs is derived in terms of simple characteristic functions. These characteristic functions are transformed from the exact series solution of the two-dimensional Poisson's equation, in which the effects of a nonuniformly doped substrate and a finite graded source-drain junction depth are included. In this model, charge-screening effects are proposed to account for the weak dependence of the threshold voltage on the substrate bias for short-channel MOSFETs, and exact source and drain boundary potentials can be approximated by their equivalent power functions. The accuracy of the simplified 2-D model is verified by 2-D numerical analysis. Moreover, comparisons between the simplified 2-D model and the experimental results are made, and good agreement is obtained for wide ranges of channel lengths, applied substrate, and drain biases     

Production of Asphalt from Activated Crude Oil Residues

Preparation is one method of increasing the efficiency of crude oil feedstock refining processes. In this stage, the feedstock can be activated by regulating the balance of intermolecular interaction forces within a crude oil disperse system by different methods: external fields (electric, magnetic); mechanical; using different kinds of additives, primarily those with surface–active properties.
