Secondary ion emission from Ti and Si targets induced by medium energy Ar ion bombardment - Experiment and computer simulation

The paper presents experimental results of secondary ion energy distributions obtained for Ti and Si targets bombarded by 20-30 keV monoisotope Ar⁺ ion beam. The influence of the extraction voltages between target and a slit of the electrostatic energy analyzer entrance on the energy distributions of secondary ions was investigated. After optimization of the secondary ion extraction system, the mass spectra of secondary ions were also measured. The investigations were done using recently built experimental system. Experimental data are compared with the computer simulation results obtained using TRQR and SATVAL codes.     

Copper(II) removal from aqueous solutions by fly ash

The removal of Cu(II) by adsorption on fly ash has been found to be concentration, pH and temperature dependent. The kinetics of adsorption indicates the process to be diffusion controlled. The Langmuir constants have been calculated at different temperatures, and the adsorption has been found to be endothermic (ΔH = 15.652 kcal mol^?1). The maximum removal is observed at pH 8.0, and variation in adsorption with pH has been explained on the basis of surface ionisation and complexation.     

Significance of fluid regime in biological filtration

A dispersed flow model previously developed to study substrate utilization in unsaturated media was experimentally verified and its practical application was considered. For this purpose, measurements were made using tap water and a synthetic feed solution. The importance of the change in fluid regime as regards to the simultaneous transport and reaction within biological filters were demonstrated. The effect of drop formation and the breakage of liquid jets inside the filters on substrate utilization was also shown.     

Thermal stability of interfaces between metals and InP-based materials

The thermal stability of interfaces between metals (Ni, Pt, Ti, Mo) and III-V compound semiconductors has been investigated by the application of Rutherford backscattering spectrometry. Metal diffusion and interfacial lattice disorder of the semiconductors were analyzed for various metal/semiconductor samples annealed at temperatures up to 500°C. The interfaces of Ni/GaAs and Ti/GaAs were found to be more stable than those of Ni/In-based semiconductors and Ti/ In-based semiconductors, respectively. Faster diffusion of Pt atoms was ob-served in In-and As-containing materials than in P-containing materials. Mo/ semiconductor interfaces were the most stable.

Carbon fibre cloth as an electrode material: electrical conductivity and mass transfer

The paper deals with carbon fibre cloth electrodes, employed in the fabrication of composite materials. The electrical conductivity of single bundles, groups of bundles and cloth is studied. Ohm's law applies to the electrical conduction in the direction of the fibre length, but bundle conductivity decreases with the number of fibres in the bundle. Electrochemical mass transfer between a flowing electrolyte and a cloth arranged as a flow-through or a flow-by porous electrode indicates the existence of double porosity in the material. Due to double porosity, only the external surface of the cloth works as an electrode. This finding shows that the material is not suitable for such an application.

Dynamic analysis and drilling degrees of freedom

Finite element methods for dynamic analysis employing elements with drilling degrees of freedom are presented. The formulation is based on a variational principle in which displacements and rotations are interpolated independently. The issue of zero masses corresponding to rotational degrees of freedom is addressed and techniques for defining consistent and lumped rotational mass matrices are presented.     

Evaluation of a system of wind tunnels for field studies of ammonia loss from grassland through volatilisation

Rates of ammonia (NH₃) loss from a ryegrass sward measured using a system of small wind tunnels were compared with concurrent measurements made using a micrometeorological mass balance method. Measurements were made during two experiments within a circular plot (radius 10m) treated with urea at a rate of 200kgNha^?1. In the first experiment, air speed through the tunnels was adjusted as necessary to maintain a value of approximately 1ms^?1. This value differed on most occasions from the mean ambient wind speed which was measured at a height of 250mm and which ranged from 0.61 to 2.95ms^?1. Rates of loss measured using the wind tunnels differed by a factor of between two and five from those measured using the mass balance method; there was no consistent pattern in the differences between the rates of loss. The total losses of NH₃ measured during 15 days were equivalent to 49.1 and 30.2kg Nha^?1 for the mass balance and wind tunnel methods, respectively. In the second experiment, air speed through the tunnels was adjusted as necessary to maintain a value as close as possible to the mean ambient wind speed measured at a height of 250mm. Rates of NH₃ loss measured using the two methods did not differ significantly; total losses of NH₃ during 17 days were equivalent to 96.9 and 101kg Nha^?1 for the mass balance and wind tunnel methods, respectively. The difference between the findings of the two experiments could be attributed to the direct effect of air speed through the tunnels rather than to differences between ambient temperatures and those inside the tunnels. During and following periods of rain the rates of loss measured using the tunnels were up to six times greater than those observed with the mass balance method. Rates of loss measured by the two methods became similar again when the tunnels were moved following rain. The study demonstrates that enclosures can be designed and operated to provide reliable measurements of the rate of NH₃ loss from grassland. Potential applications of the two methods are discussed.
