Solid medium thermal engine [PDF]
A device is described which uses a single phase metallic working substance to convert thermal energy directly into mechanical energy. The device consists of a cylindrical metal tube which is free to rotate about its axis while being subjected to ...

Experimental ex-vivo validation of PMMA-based bone cements loaded with magnetic nanoparticles enabling hyperthermia of metastatic bone tumors [PDF]
Percutaneous vertebroplasty comprises the injection of Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement into vertebrae and can be used for the treatment of compression fractures of vertebrae.

This article considers the second initial-boundary value problem with homogeneous boundary conditions for a one-dimensional modified heat equation. The modification consists in replacing the temperature-conductivity coefficient with an integral load. In our case, it has the form of a power function of the integral of the square of the modulus of the ...

Shock and Release Temperatures in Molybdenum
Shock and release temperatures in Mo were calculated, taking account of heating from plastic flow predicted using the Steinberg-Guinan model. Plastic flow was calculated self-consistently with the shock jump conditions: this is necessary for a rigorous ...

Three-dimensional free vibration analysis of thermally loaded fgm sandwich plates [PDF]
Using the finite element code ABAQUS and the user-defined material utilities UMAT and UMATHT, a solid brick graded finite element is developed for three-dimensional (3D) modeling of free vibrations of thermally loaded functionally gradient material (FGM)

Regeneration experiments below 10K in a regenerative-cycle cryocooler [PDF]
At temperatures below 10K, regenerative cycle cryocoolers are limited by regeneration losses in the helium working fluid which result from the decreasing heat capacity of the regenerating material and the increasing density of helium.

Grüneisen parameter of hcp‐Fe to 171 GPa [PDF]
We measured the phonon density of states (DOS) of hexagonal close-packed iron (ɛ-Fe) with high statistical quality using nuclear resonant inelastic X-ray scattering and in situ X-ray diffraction experiments between pressures of 30 GPa and 171 GPa and at ...

Beam-Induced Damage Mechanisms and their Calculation [PDF]
The rapid interaction of highly energetic particle beams with matter induces dynamic responses in the impacted component. If the beam pulse is sufficiently intense, extreme conditions can be reached, such as very high pressures, changes of material ...
