AbstractWe introduce a new semi-empirical method for calculating alloy properties. The method Is based on the concepts of equivalent crystal theory of defect formation energies in elemental solids. With this new method we predict heats of formation, lattice parameters, surface energies, segregation senergies and other properties of several binary alloys of fcc (Cu, NI, Ag, Au, Al, Fe, Pd and Pt) and bcc (Cr, Mo, Fe, V) elements. The method is characterized for its extreme computational simplicity and good agreement with experimental results. Several applications of the method are discussed.

ABSTRACTA model for nucleation and growth of {311} defects is proposed on the basis of thermodynamic and kinetic considerations. Simulated results are discussed and compared to experimental results found in the literature. According to our model it is found that formation energies of self-interstitial clusters depends on the local interstitial supersaturation. Physical parameters extracted from experimental results by inverse modeling are in good agreement with recent values published in the literature.

Organic halogens are of great environmental and climatic concern. In this work, we have compiled their gas phase diffusivities (pressure-normalized diffusion coefficients) in a variety of bath gases experimentally measured by previous studies. It is found that diffusivities estimated using Fuller's semi-empirical method agree very well with measured values for organic halogens. In addition, we find that at a given temperature and pressure, different molecules exhibit very similar mean free paths in the same bath gas, and then propose a method to estimate mean free paths in different bath gases. For example, the pressure-normalized mean free paths are estimated to be 90, 350, 90, 80, 120 nm atm in air (and N 2 /O 2 ), He, argon, CO 2 and CH 4 , respectively, with estimated errors of around ±25%. A generic method, which requires less input parameter than Fuller's method, is proposed to calculate gas phase diffusivities. We find that gas phase diffusivities in He (and air as well) calculated using our method show fairly good agreement with those measured experimentally and estimated using Fuller's method. Our method is particularly useful for the estimation of gas phase diffusivities when the trace gas contains atoms whose diffusion volumes are not known.

The genetic algorithm, based on the Multi-Niche Crowding (MNC) method, coupled with the semi-empirical AM1 method is used to analyze the potential energy surface of some polypeptides containing cysteine. Calculating the formation energies of these systems in both neutral and deprotonated states, we deducted their enthalpy of deprotonation (ΔHacid) and we identified the types of rearrangement of these systems when isolated. Deprotonation occurs at the level of the alone acid site characterizing these peptides namely the thiol. The values obtained for the deprotonation enthalpies of polypeptides AlaCysNH2, Ala2CysNH2, Ala3CysNH2, Ala4CysNH2, CysAlaNH2 and CysAla2NH2 are in the order of 331.3 kcal/mol, 322.9 kcal/mol, 313.8 kcal/mol, 312.9 kcal/mol, 325.1 kcal/mol and 317.3 kcal/mol, respectively. The location of global and local minima of these polypeptides shows that they are rearranged in two forms of secondary structures namely helical and globular forms. The obtained results are in good agreement with the experimental ones, on the one hand, and with those from other methods in the theoretical calculation, on the other hand. Therefore, the N-cysteine is more acidic than their homologous C-Cysteine and for this series of plolyalanines, the acidity in the gas phase increased with the peptide chain length.

The crystal structure of N-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-3-oxobutanamide (I) is optimized by semi-empirical methods using MOPAC2009 program. The optimized geometries from both Austin Model 1 (AM1) and Parametrization Model 6 (PM6) describe the conformational discrepancy and crystal packing. The energy minimized structures from both the models are in good agreement with X-ray crystal data. The intramolecular charge transfer interactions are studied from the molecular orbital calculations. The parametric molecular electrostatic potential (PMEP) calculated by AM1 semi-empirical method shows the involvement of oxygen and chlorine atoms in the crystal packing interactions. The aromaticity of phenyl ring in the structure is determined using HOMED calculations.

Abstract The paper presents the numerical and experimental results of a new method for producing flanges on hollow parts. With this new method, the flange is extruded by a movable sleeve. This innovative technique is modelled numerically by the finite element method. The effect of workpiece and finished product geometries on the forming process is investigated and failure modes are identfied. The numerical reults are then verified in experiments. The tests are conducted using a three-slide forging press equipped with a special device. The numerical and experimental results show a good agreement, which proves that the developed method is correct.

An analysis of the ‘linear combination of atomic orbitals’ approximation using the accurate molecular orbital equations shows that it does not lead to equations of the form usually assumed in the semi-empirical molecular orbital method. A new semi-empirical method is proposed, therefore, in terms of equivalent orbitals. The equations obtained, which do have the usual form, are applicable to a large class of molecules and do not involve the approximations that were thought necessary. In this method the ionization potentials are calculated by treating certain integrals as semi-empirical parameters. The value of these parameters is discussed in terms of the localization of equivalent orbitals and some approximate rules are suggested. As an illustration the ionization potentials of the paraffin series are considered and good agreement between the observed and calculated values is found.

A new method, obtaining the pressure-time relations during air inflation and deflation process, is proposed to research the dynamic characteristic of a pneumatic solenoid valve. The current, magnetism, mechanical and air subsystems of the valve are investigated. In order to experimentally verify the advantage of the new model, two models are compared. Simulation results show, the opening and closing reversal times of the model without air subsystem are 29.6ms and 30.7ms. The new model’s reversal times are 31.8ms and 36.1ms. 32.5ms and 35.3ms are the results by experiments. The experimental results show very good agreement with the new model.
