Raman scattering spectroscopy measurement clearly indicates that a systematic trend of residual stress reduction as the silicon over-layer thickness decreases for the SOI substrates. Strain relaxation in the SiC epilayer is explained by force balance approach and near coincidence lattice model.展开更多

The evolution of the paleo-hydrodynamic field was studied by using the method of sedimentary-water-head and the changing patterns of the present hydrodynamic field as determined from measured pressure data. The results show that the evolution of the hydrodynamic field is one of inheritance and that it controls hydrocarbon accumulation. The deposition center in the southeast of the depression is always a high-value zone for water-head and a dynamic- source zone of the hydrodynamic field. The slope zone in the northwest of the depression is always a low-value zone for water-head and is the main discharge area for groundwater; this is the hydrocarbon accumulation zone. Hydrocarbon accumulation is controlled by the hydrodynamic field. The reservoir shows a ring-shaped horizontal pattern. Accumulation occurs in a pressure equilibrium zone at the frontal surface between sedimentary water and infiltrating water. The hydrocarbon accumulations occur in two vertically different discharge units, Eh31 and Eh32, under the action of overpressure.展开更多

The carbonized leaf powder is expected as suitable adsorbent for Ni(II) removal became of the composition of some beneficial groups. In this work, carbonized leaf powder was evaluated for its adsorption performance towards Ni(II). According to the results, adsorbent component, dosage, initial solute concentration, solution pH, temperature and contact time can significantly affect the efficiency of Ni(II) removal. Sips model fits the test results best, and the adsorption capacity towards Ni(II) is determined around 37.62 mg/g. The thermodynamic behaviors reveal the endothermic and spontaneous nature of the adsorption. The free adsorption energy (fluctuate around 8 kJ/mol) predicted by D-R model indicates that the adsorption capacity originated from both physical and chemical adsorption. Room temperature (15-25 ℃) is suitable for Ni(II) removal as well as low energy consumption for temperature enhancement. Further conclusions about the mechanism of chemical adsorption are obtained through analysis of the FT-IR test and XRD spectra, which indicates that the adsorption process occurs predominantly between amine, carbonate, phosphate and nickel ions.展开更多

The presented macro-equations were deduced from the kinetic micro-equations by the statistics method. And the constitutive equations were verified by experimental data at different reaction times and temperatures (95°C, 60°C and 39°C), taking diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) /ethyleneamine (EA) as a model.展开更多

The necessity of performing a coupled hydromechanical analysis to solve the seepage-deformation interaction problem was illustrated by examining the equations of static equilibrium among the effective stress, seepage force, pore-water pressure and total stress. The conceptual definition of stress variable that satisfies the principles of continuum mechanics is applied in the coupled hydromechanical analysis. It is shown that Terzaghi's effective stress is in fact not a stress variable under seepage conditions, and the seepage force acting on the soil skeleton cannot be viewed as a body force. This offers a clue to the underlying cause of a paradox between the real Pascal's hydrostatic state and the hydrostatic state predicted by a class of continuum hydromechanical theories.展开更多

They do not take account of all factors determining equilibrium, cannot explain why many systems do not reach equilibrium and do not discuss the questions of reaching and maintaining equilibrium. The arguments presented here provide a single physical definition of thermodynamic equilibrium that accounts for all factors determining thermodynamic equilibrium for mixtures of combustible gases and air. Based on the standard delrmition of thermodynamic equilibrium, the MBD (Maxwell Boltzmann distribution) and a simple molecular model lead to three possible types of equilibrium. The regions of temperature pressure and composition for each type of equilibrium are defined by the measured values of ignition temperatures and the explosive and flammability limits. How this definition of thermodynamic equilibrium can be extended to all molecular systems is discussed in the following papers.展开更多

We will show that under certain hypotheses, even though the unique positive equilibrium is asymptotically stable for the dynamics with diffusion, Turing instability can produce due to the presence of the cross-diffusion. In particular, we establish the existence of non-constant positive steady states of this system. The results indicate that cross-diffusion can create stationary patterns.展开更多
文摘One group of SiC films are grown on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates with a series of silicon-overlayer thickness. Raman scattering spectroscopy measurement clearly indicates that a systematic trend of residual stress reduction as the silicon over-layer thickness decreases for the SOI substrates. Strain relaxation in the SiC epilayer is explained by force balance approach and near coincidence lattice model.
