Analysis of double cross-slip of pyramidal I < c plus a > screw dislocations and implications for ductility in Mg alloys

William Curtin, Zhaoxuan Wu, Rasool Ahmad

Solute accelerated cross-slip of pyramidal < c + a > screw dislocations has recently been recognized as a crucial mechanism in enhancing the ductility of solid-solution Mg alloys. In pure Mg, cross-slip is ineffective owing to the energy difference between ...

On the physical mechanism of tip vortex cavitation hysteresis

Mohamed Farhat, Matthieu Dreyer, Ali Amini, Martino Reclari

Inception and desinence thresholds of tip vortex cavitation (TVC), generated by an elliptical NACA 16-020 hydrofoil, are measured at different flow conditions for various gas contents. It is observed that TVC often disappears at cavitation indices signific ...

The Role of Impeller Outflow Conditions on the Performance of Vaned Diffusers

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann

Highly loaded impellers, typically used in turbocharger and gas turbine applications, exhaust an unsteady, transonic flow that is nonuniform across the span and pitch and swirling at angles approaching tangential. With the exception of the flow angle, conf ...

Rationalizing Fluorescence Quenching in meso-BODIPY Dyes

Alberto Fabrizio, Antonio Prlj

meso-Substituted boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) dyes are a puzzling class of molecules, which feature contrasting emissive behaviors. The full mechanistic picture for these distinctive properties is still missing. Using static and dynamic excited state comp ...

Improved Variational Denoising of Flow Fields with Application to Phase-Contrast MRI Data

Michaël Unser, Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Emrah Bostan, Orestis Vardoulis, Stamatios Lefkimmiatis

We propose a new variational framework for the problem of reconstructing flow fields from noisy measurements. The formalism is based on regularizers penalizing the singular values of the Jacobian of the field. Specifically, we rely on the nuclear norm. Our ...

Influence of DNA Binding Dyes on Bare DNA Structure Studied with Atomic Force Microscopy

Giovanni Dietler, Aleksandr Benke, Aleksandre Japaridze, Sylvain Renevey

Fluorescent dyes are widely used for staining and visualization of DNA in optical microscopy based methods. Even though for some dyes the mechanism of binding is known, how this binding affects DNA remains poorly understood. Here we present a novel experim ...

New evidence for hybrid acrylic/TiO2 films inducing bacterial inactivation under low intensity simulated sunlight

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi

This study addresses the preparation and characterization of hybrid films prepared from Titanium dioxide (TiO2) Pickering stabilized acrylic polymeric dispersion as well as their bacterial inactivation efficiency under sunlight irradiation. Complete bacter ...

Head losses in junction manholes for free surface flows in circular conduits

Michael Pfister, Corrado Gisonni

Former studies on combining flows resulted in an efficient layout of sewer junctions operated under supercritical approach flow conditions. Straight extensions allowed a reduction in the shock wave heights generated by the merging flows, so that the global ...
