It is shown that defining an incompressible material as one whose response to stressing or straining is insensitive to volumetric-type changes in strain or stress allows the derivation of incompressible forms for multiple integral representations, through the third order, which have only three kernel functions both in the creep formulation and the relaxation formulation for small strains. Earlier work had yielded four kernel functions in the relaxation and three in the creep formulation. Linearly compressible formulations are also discussed and compared with available creep data.

It is shown that a creep surface, defined in terms of a prescribed creep rate, can be determined from the multiple integral formulation representing the creep data. The creep surface for 304 stainless steel was found to be in good agreement with a Mises ellipse. Observed creep rate vectors for this alloy were found to be normal to a Mises ellipse. These results were obtained from creep tests performed on 304 stainless steel under combined tension and torsion at 593°C (1100°F). Creep strains observed for at least 100 hr were adequately represented by a power function of time, the exponent of which was independent of stress. A third-order multiple integral representation together with a limiting stress below which creep does not occur was employed to describe satisfactorily the constant stress creep data.

The assumption that volume changes associated with creep of a nonlinear viscoelastic material are only linearly dependent on the stress history is incorporated into a third-order multiple integral representation. This assumption reduces the number of independent kernel functions in the representation from 12 to 7. The traces of these independent kernels may be determined from two tension, two torsion, and one combined tension and torsion creep tests. Experiments on polyurethane are well represented by this method. The time-dependence of the kernel functions is expressed by time raised to a power with the power differing for different-order kernel functions.

A small electron probe has many applications in many fields and in the case of the STEM, the probe size essentially determines the ultimate resolution. However, there are many difficulties in obtaining a very small probe.Spherical aberration is one of them and all existing probe forming systems have non-zero spherical aberration. The ultimate probe radius is given byδ = 0.43Csl/4ƛ3/4where ƛ is the electron wave length and it is apparent that δ decreases only slowly with decreasing Cs. Scherzer pointed out that the third order aberration coefficient always has the same sign regardless of the field distribution, provided only that the fields have cylindrical symmetry, are independent of time and no space charge is present. To overcome this problem, he proposed a corrector consisting of octupoles and quadrupoles.

As a general index of language development, the recall of first through fourth order approximations to English was examined in four, five, six, and seven year olds and adults. Data suggested that recall improved with age, and increases in approximation to English were accompanied by increases in recall for six and seven year olds and adults. Recall improved for four and five year olds through the third order but declined at the fourth. The latter finding was attributed to deficits in semantic structures and memory processes in four and five year olds. The former finding was interpreted as an index of the development of general linguistic processes.

The ultrafast third-order optical nonlinearity of c-plane GaN crystal, excited by ultrashort (fs) high-repetition-rate laser pulses at 1550 nm, wavelength important for optical communications, is investigated for the first time by optical third-harmonic generation in non-phase-matching conditions. As the thermo-optic effect that can arise in the sample by cumulative thermal effects induced by high-repetition-rate laser pulses cannot be responsible for the third-harmonic generation, the ultrafast nonlinear optical effect of solely electronic origin is the only one involved in this process. The third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility of GaN crystal responsible for the third-harmonic generation process, an important indicative parameter for the potential use of this material in ultrafast photonic functionalities, is determined.

AbstractFor the third-order differential equationy′″ = ƒ(t, y, y′, y″), where, questions involving ‘uniqueness implies uniqueness’, ‘uniqueness implies existence’ and ‘optimal length subintervals of (a, b) on which solutions are unique’ are studied for a class of two-point boundary-value problems.
