On regular drawn symbolic picture languages

Drawn symbolic pictures are an extension of drawn pictures obtained by associating a symbol from an alphabet to each point of the picture. In the paper we will address some new interesting issues derived from the introduction of the symbols and we will identify the conditions, which ensure the preservation of properties holding for drawn pictures in the setting of the proposed extension.

Reliability of structures in high dimensions, part I: algorithms and applications

The present paper is concerned with the estimation of structural reliability when a large number of random variables is present. A sampling technique which uses lines in order to probe the failure domain, is presented. The latter is employed in conjunction with a stepwise procedure which makes use of Markov Chains. The resulting algorithm exhibits accelerated convergence.     

Modeling of the bulk free radical polymerization up to high conversion—three stage polymerization model. II. Number-average molecular weight and apparent initiator efficiency

The equations for predicting the number-average molecular weight are derived on the basis of the three stage polymerization model (TSPM) in this paper. By applying the equations, a plotting approach is proposed to determine the apparent initiator efficiency defined as f[(α_td+1)/2] and the constant of chain transfer to monomer, where f is the initiator efficiency and α_td denotes the fraction of the termination rate constants by disproportionation. Using the approach to plot the experimental data in the literature, it is found that the chain transfer to monomer can be neglected for both methylmethacrylate (MMA) and styrene (St) polymerizations, but it can exert a significant effect on ethylmethacrylate (EMA) polymerization. In addition, the apparent initiator efficiency is found to be independent of reaction temperature and initiator concentration at each stage. The values of f[(α_td+1)/2] at gel effect stage are slightly reduced as compared with that at low conversion stage for MMA and EMA polymerizations. However, it decreases significantly at gel effect stage for St polymerization. Using the equations derived and the apparent initiator efficiencies obtained from TSPM plots, the number-average molecular weights at different conversions can be predicted. Comparisons show that the agreement between predictions and experimental data is satisfactory.     

Crystalline and viscoelastic properties of branched polyethylenes synthesized using bidentate nickel (II) catalyst

In this work, five branched polyethylenes with different branching units were synthesized using bidentate nickel (II) catalyst containing -diimine ligands. For comparison, one linear polyethylene was also prepared using tridentate iron (II) catalyst containing -diimine ligand. The crystalline structure of the polyethylenes was investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and polarized optical microscope. The crystalline properties were also measured by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). Viscoelastic properties of the polyethylenes were investigated using rheometric dynamic analyzer. The DSC and XRD results showed that highly branched polyethylenes exhibit no melting points and no predominating crystalline forms, while the linear polyethylene exhibits clear orthorhombic (110) and (200) reflections on XRD pattern and a clear melting point at 118 °C. The viscoelastic properties of the branched polyethylenes were very complicated due to the combined effect of the molecular weight difference and the degree of chain branching as well as the branching structure.

Stress analysis of pin-loaded woven-glass fiber reinforced epoxy laminate conveying chain components

The aim of this study is to examine the effects of various loading conditions on the stress of a pin-loaded woven-glass fiber reinforced epoxy laminate conveying chain component. A numerical and experimental study was carried out to determine the stress distribution of composite conveying chain components used to convey loads. For the experimental study, an apparatus was developed to simulate chain components in real motion. Two different working conditions of the chain component were investigated. The first condition represents the movement of the chain components without loading. In the second condition, the chain component touches and moves the load. The commercial finite element package ANSYS was used to perform the numerical analysis using a three dimensional eight-noded layered structural solid elements. Chain tensile forces were loaded through pins and chosen as 250, 500, 750, 1000 and 1250 N for the two conditions of chain components. Experimental and numerical studies were compared and discussed for two conditions and five different tensile forces. A good agreement between experimental results and numerical predictions is obtained.
