Process Elements

Current observational results for the abundances of the very heavy elements (Z>30) in Population II halo stars are reviewed. New high resolution, low noise spectra of many of these extremely metal-poor stars reveal general consistency in their overall abundance patterns. Below Galactic metallicities of [Fe/H] Ã −2, all of the very heavy elements were manufactured almost exclusively in r-process synthesis events. However, there is considerable star-to-star scatter in the overall level of very heavy element abundances, indicating the influence of local supernovas on element production in the very early, unmixed Galactic halo. The s-process appears to contribute substantially to stellar abundances only in stars more metal-rich than [Fe/H] Ã −2.

Mixed Integer Optimization

Filling a void in chemical engineering and optimization literature, this book presents the theory and methods for nonlinear and mixed-integer optimization, and their applications in the important area of process synthesis. Other topics include modeling issues in process synthesis, and optimization-based approaches in the synthesis of heat recovery systems, distillation-based systems, and reactor-based systems. The basics of convex analysis and nonlinear optimization are also covered and the elementary concepts of mixed-integer linear optimization are introduced. All chapters have several illustrations and geometrical interpretations of the material as well as suggested problems. Nonlinear and Mixed-Integer Optimization will prove to be an invaluable source--either as a textbook or a reference--for researchers and graduate students interested in continuous and discrete nonlinear optimization issues in engineering design, process synthesis, process operations, applied mathematics, operations research, industrial management, and systems engineering.

Volume Weight

This study investigates visualization of optimized layer thickness with a ternary diagram by considering Volume, Weight, and Cost priorities to determine the composite structure of alternative ceramics to use in body armor application by using the Digital Logic Method (DLM). Three criterion priorities (volume, weight, cost) have been investigated to help designers decide on optimum ceramic material for their applications. Alumina (Al2O3), silicon carbide (SiC), silicon nitride (Si3N4), and boron carbide (B4C) were analyzed and ranked to decide for material selection based on priorities. The analysis results showed that silicon nitride (Si3N4) had the maximum performance index (PI) point (80.0) based on the volume priority. On the other hand, while boron carbide (B4C) had the maximum PI point (76.4) in terms of the weight priority, alumina (Al2O3) was determined to be the best material according to the cost priority. PI point of alumina (Al2O3) was calculated as 100. A ternary diagram was developed for decision-makers to visualize material selection performances. The optimization of the ceramic composite layer thickness of the alternative ceramic materials is visualized by considering three criteria.

Pan Fibers

In this study, a single firing was used to convert stabilized polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers and ceramic forming materials (kaolin, feldspar, and quartz) into carbon fiber/ceramic composites. For the first time, PAN carbonization and ceramic sintering were achieved simultaneously in one thermal cycle and the microscopic morphologies and physical features of the obtained carbon fiber/ceramic composites were characterized in detail. The obtained carbon fiber/ceramic composite showed comparable flexural strength as commercial ceramic tiles. Meanwhile, the composite showed exceptional electro-thermal performance based on the electro-thermal performance of the carbonized PAN fibers, which could reach 108 ℃ after 15 s, 204 ℃ after 90 s, and 292 ℃ after 450 s at 5 V (2.6 A), thereby making the ceramic composite a good candidate as an indoor climate control heater, defogger device, kettle, and other heating element.
