Casting metal alloys in the semi-solid state is now becoming a well established manufacturing technique. But, the success of this technology necessitates a good understanding of the feedstock material behaviour. To obtain high quality components with semi-solid metal processing, a homogeneous distribution of phases must be maintained in the material during the die filling stage. Many parameters affect the process such as temperature, time and stress history, which influence the shape, size and connectivity of the particles that make up the slurry. The subsequent phase interaction mechanisms are quite complex and have direct effects on the flow and final micro-structure distribution of the cast part and thus, without any doubt, on its mechanical properties. Two-phase numerical models have been developed to account for the liquid-solid phase separation e.g. [1,2]. Several two-phase models have been elaborated on the basis of soil mechanics and consider that the phase interaction term is mainly due to the flow through a porous medium. Because of the difficulties of making direct measurements in an extremely hostile environment, there has been very little work done to validate these models. In order to fill this gap, a better understanding of the phase distribution and phase segregation mechanisms during the filling step is required. In this work, the post-solidification primary α-phase distribution inside an industrial semi-solid cast part has thus been investigated. A thorough metallographic analysis has been performed using an upright microscope coupled to a Clemex image-analysis software. The results were then processed to produce a map of the final α-phase distribution. Many different grain scales have been observed in the solidified part and their distributions seem to be closely associated to the velocity field. Contacts between moving particles seem to play an important role in the phase distribution and show many similarities to granular materials. This latter aspect should be considered in the development of new constitutive models for semi-solid slurries.

In the present work, a novel sample preparation method, micro salting-out assisted matrix solid-phase dispersion (μ-SOA-MSPD), was developed for the determination of bisphenol A (BPA) and bisphenol B (BPB) contaminants in bee pollen. The proposed method was designed to combine two classical sample preparation methodologies, matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) and homogenous liquid-liquid extraction (HLLE), to simplify and speed-up the preparation process. Parameters of μ-SOA-MSPD were systematically investigated, and results indicated the significant effect of salt and ACN-H2O extractant on the signal response of analytes. In addition, excellent clean-up ability in removing matrix components was observed when primary secondary amine (PSA) sorbent was introduced into the blending operation. The developed method was fully validated, and the limits of detection for BPA and BPB were 20 μg/kg and 30 μg/kg, respectively. Average recoveries and precisions were ranged from 83.03% to 94.64% and 1.76% to 5.45%, respectively. This is the first report on the analysis of bisphenol contaminants in bee pollen sample, and also on the combination of MSPD and HLLE. The present method might provide a new strategy for simple and fast sample preparation of solid and semi-solid samples.

Abstract. Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) accounts for a large fraction of submicron particles in the atmosphere. SOA can occur in amorphous solid or semi-solid phase states depending on chemical composition, relative humidity (RH), and temperature. The phase transition between amorphous solid and semi-solid states occurs at the glass transition temperature (Tg). We have recently developed a method to estimate Tg of pure compounds containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms (CHO compounds) with molar mass less than 450 g mol−1 based on their molar mass and atomic O : C ratio. In this study, we refine and extend this method for CH and CHO compounds with molar mass up to ∼ 1100 g mol−1 using the number of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. We predict viscosity from the Tg-scaled Arrhenius plot of fragility (viscosity vs. Tg∕T) as a function of the fragility parameter D. We compiled D values of organic compounds from the literature and found that D approaches a lower limit of ∼ 10 (±1.7) as the molar mass increases. We estimated the viscosity of α-pinene and isoprene SOA as a function of RH by accounting for the hygroscopic growth of SOA and applying the Gordon–Taylor mixing rule, reproducing previously published experimental measurements very well. Sensitivity studies were conducted to evaluate impacts of Tg, D, the hygroscopicity parameter (κ), and the Gordon–Taylor constant on viscosity predictions. The viscosity of toluene SOA was predicted using the elemental composition obtained by high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), resulting in a good agreement with the measured viscosity. We also estimated the viscosity of biomass burning particles using the chemical composition measured by HRMS with two different ionization techniques: electrospray ionization (ESI) and atmospheric pressure photoionization (APPI). Due to differences in detected organic compounds and signal intensity, predicted viscosities at low RH based on ESI and APPI measurements differ by 2–5 orders of magnitude. Complementary measurements of viscosity and chemical composition are desired to further constrain RH-dependent viscosity in future studies.

In this paper, we present simple and exact eigenvalues for both the solid- and fluid-phases of the real two-phase general model developed by Pudasaini (2012); we call these phase-eigenvalues, the solid- phase-eigenvalues and the fluid-phase-eigenvalues. Results are compared by applying the derived phase- eigenvalues that incorporate the phase-interactions in the two-phase debris movements against the simple and classical solid and fluid eigenvalues without any phase interaction. We have constructed several different set of eigenvalues including the coupled phase eigenvalues by using rational factorization method. At first, we consider for general debris height; factorizing the solid and fluid lateral pressure contributions by considering the negligible pressure gradient; negligible solid lateral pressure; negligible fluid lateral pressure; negligible solid and fluid lateral pressure. Secondly, for a thin debris ow height, we also construct the fourth set of eigenvalues in three different cases. These phase-eigenvalues incorporate strong interaction between the solid and fluid dynamics. The simulation results are produced by taking all these different sets of coupled phase-eigenvalues and are compared with the classical uncoupled set of solid and fluid eigenvalues. The results indicate the importance of phase-eigenvalues and supports for a complete description of the phase- eigenvalues for the enhanced description of real two-phase debris flows and landslide motions.
