Flexural propagation behavior of a metamaterial beam with circular membrane-mass structures is presented. Each cell is comprised of a base structure containing circular cavities filled by an elastic membrane with a centrally loaded mass. Numerical results show that there exist two kinds of bandgaps in such a system. One is called Bragg bandgap caused by structural periodicity; the other is called locally resonant (LR) bandgap caused by the resonant behavior of substructures. By altering the properties of the membrane-mass structure, the location of the resonant-type bandgap can be easily tuned. An analytical model is proposed to predict the lowest bandgap location. A good agreement is seen between the theoretical results and finite element (FE) results. Frequencies with negative mass density lie in the resonant-type bandgap.

The nonlinear optical properties of pepper oil are studied by diffraction ring patterns and Z-scan techniques with continuous wave beam from solid state laser at 473 nm wavelength. The nonlinear refractive index of the sample is calculated by both techniques. The sample show high nonlinear refractive index. Based on Fresnel-Kirchhoff diffraction integral, the far-field intensity distributions of ring patterns have been calculated. It is found that the experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical results. Also the optical limiting property of pepper oil is reported. The results obtained in this study prove that the pepper oil has applications in nonlinear optical devices.

Abstract The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) parameters (g factor g i , and hyperfine structure constants A i , with i = x, y, z) and local structures for Cu2+ centers in M2Zn(SO4)2·6H2O (M = NH4 and Rb) are theoretically investigated using the high order perturbation formulas of these EPR parameters for a 3d 9 ion under orthorhombically elongated octahedra. In the calculations, contribution to these EPR parameters due to the admixture of d-orbitals in the ground state wave function of the Cu2+ ion are taken into account based on the cluster approach, and the required crystal-field parameters are estimated from the superposition model which enables correlation of the crystal-field parameters and hence the studied EPR parameters with the local structures of the Cu2+ centers. Based on the calculations, the Cu–H2O bonds are found to suffer the axial elongation ratio δ of about 3 and 2.9% along the z-axis, meanwhile, the planar bond lengths may experience variation ratio τ (≈3.8 and 1%) along x- and y-axis for Cu2+ center in (NH4)2Zn(SO4)2·6H2O and Rb2Zn(SO4)2·6H2O, respectively. The theoretical results show good agreement with the observed values.

The flow field in an inertial impactor was studied experimentally with a water model by means of a flow visualization technique. The influence of such parameters as Reynolds number and jet-to-plate distance on the flow field was determined. The Navier-Stokes equations describing the laminar flow field in the impactor were solved numerically by means of a finite difference relaxation method. The theoretical results were found to be in good agreement with the empirical observations made with the water model.

According to several known experiments, an increase of the incoming flow air content can increase the hydrofoil lift coefficient. The presented theoretical study shows that such increase is associated with the decrease of the fluid density at the cavity surface. This decrease is caused by entrainment of air bubbles to the cavity from the surrounding flow. The theoretical results based on such explanation are in a good agreement with the earlier published experimental data for NACA0015.

AbstractMathematical models have been developed to evaluate the dynamic behavior of two solar air collectors: the first one is equipped with a V-porous absorber and the second one with a U-corrugated absorber. The collectors have the same geometry, cross-section surface area and are built from the same materials, the only difference between them being the absorbers. V-corrugated absorbers have been treated in literature but the V-porous absorbers modeled here have not been very often considered. The models are based on first-order differential equations which describe the heat exchange between the main components of the two types of solar air heaters. Both collectors were exposed to the sun in the same meteorological conditions, at identical tilt angle and they operated at the same air mass flow rate. The tests were carried out in the climatic conditions of Bucharest (Romania, South Eastern Europe). There is good agreement between the theoretical results and experiments. The average bias error was about 7.75 % and 10.55 % for the solar air collector with “V”-porous absorber and with “U”-corrugated absorber, respectively. The collector based on V-porous absorber has higher efficiency than the collector with U-corrugated absorber around the noon of clear days. Around sunrise and sunset, the collector with U-corrugated absorber is more effective.

Abstract The possibility of cancelling self-excited vibrations of a mechanical system using parametric excitation is discussed. A two-mass system is considered, with the top mass excited by a flow-generated self-exciting force. The parameter of the connecting stiffness between the base mass and the foundation is a harmonic function of time and represents a parametric excitation. For such a system general conditions for full vibration cancelling are derived and presented. By means of numerical simulation the system is investigated for several sets of parameters. The theoretical results are found to be in very good agreement with the results obtained by simulation. Parameter variations show the extent of the parameter space where significant vibration cancelling can be achieved and illustrate possible applications.

We have investigated the propagation of Lamb waves in structures made of either an isolated resonant pillar or a set of pillars arranged in a line on a thin plate. The resonators as well as the plate are made of silicon. FEM computations show that two bending modes and one compressional mode are unambiguously identified in the frequency range of interest (0–10 MHz). We used a laser ultrasonic technique to map both the amplitude and the phase of the normal displacements on top of the pillars and at the surface of the sample. When the frequency is tuned to a resonant mode, either compressional or bending, the pillars vibrate 180° out-of-phase with respect to the Lamb waves, resulting in a negative modulus or negative mass density respectively.
