In the subcratonic mantle beneath Leningrad pipe, West Ukukit field, Yakutia garnet thermoba-rometry give division to 7 horizons (paleosubduction slabs). Cr-bearing amphiboles >500 reveal a broad range changing from Cr- pargasitic hornblendes to pargasites, edinites, kataforites, К-richterites with increasing pressure determined with new amphibole thermobarometer. Cr-hornblendes compiles the high-temperature branch from 3.5 GPa to Moho for basaltic melt. Amphiboles in the middle eddinites and high-pressure interval reveal different PT ranges from 35 to 40 mw/m2. Richterites near the lithosphere base both trace low –T and convective branches. The amphiboles reveal the 9 geochemical groups. The low-temperature varieties reveal Eu minima and U, Ba, Sr peaks high LILE, Sr, Rb and troughs in Nb, Pb. While high –T varieties have no Eu dips and reveal higher HFSE. Clinopyroxenes and garnets show variable trace ele-ment patterns and divisions in groups eth the plume and subduction signs. The contrasting be-haviour of Ta and Nb is regulated by the rutile partition coefficients likely for primary eclogites. Subduction and Na and K (siliceous) types of fluids percolated through the mantle with abun-dant eclogites causing amphibolization at the different levels of the mantle column. The plume melts produced hybridism and more smooth trace element patterns in reacted minerals, clino-pyroxene. monomineral thermobarometry.

A novel method called high-pressure air (HPA) jet controlled compression ignition (JCCI) based on the compound thermodynamic cycle was investigated in this work. The combustion process of premixed mixture can be controlled flexibly by the high-pressure air jet compression, and it characterizes the intensified low-temperature reaction and two-stage high-temperature reaction. The three-dimensional (3D) computational fluid dynamics (CFD) numerical simulation was employed to study the emission formation process and mechanism, and the effects of high-pressure air jet temperature and duration on emissions were also investigated. The simulation results showed that the NOx formation is mainly affected by the first-stage high-temperature reaction due to the higher reaction temperature. Overall, this combustion mode can obtain ultra-low NOx emission. The second-stage high-temperature reaction plays an important role in the CO and THC formation caused by the mixing effect of the high-pressure air and original in-cylinder mixture. The increasing air jet temperature leads to a larger high-temperature in-cylinder region and more fuel in the first-stage reaction, and therefore resulting in higher NOx emission. However, the increasing air jet temperature can significantly reduce the CO and THC emissions. For the air jet duration comparisons, both too short and too long air jet durations could induce higher NOx emission. A higher air jet duration would result in higher CO emission due to the more high-pressure air jet with relatively low temperature.

When designing a hand caliber with a high-temperature, high-pressure internal fluid transport pipe, reliability, safe use, and performance must be considered. Reliability refers to the stress caused by thermo-mechanical load; safe use refers to the low-temperature burns that might occur upon contact, and high-temperature burns caused by gas leakage occurring in the cylinder gap; and performance refers to projectile velocity. In this study, numerical simulation methods for heat transfer, structure analysis, and gas leakage are proposed so that solutions can be designed to account for the above three criteria. Furthermore, a hand-caliber design guide is presented. For heat transfer and structural analysis, mesh size, the transient convective heat transfer coefficient, and boundary conditions are described. Regarding gas leakage, methods reflecting projectile motion and determination of the molecular weight of the propellant are described. As a result, a designed hand caliber will have a high reliability, because the thermo-mechanical stress is lower than the yield stress. There will be little risk of low-temperature burns, but there will be a high temperature-burn risk, owing to gas leakage in the cylinder gap. The larger the cylinder-gap size, the greater the gas leakage and the smaller projectile velocity. The presented numerical simulation method can be applied to evaluate various aspects of other structures that require high-temperature, high-pressure fluid-transport pipes.

<p>The U-Pb system in titanite has been shown to be reset during a variety of high-temperature processes including high-temperature deformation, but post-deformation modification and recovery of crystal-lattice strain have so far made U-Pb equilibration mechanism from deformed titanites equivocal. Microstructures, including mechanical twinning and subgrain rotation recrystallization are more likely to be preserved at low-temperatures, but the systematics of chemical equilibration have not been established for these conditions. This study identifies progressive crystallographic misorientation and deformation twins in titanite porphyroclasts from the Wasatch Fault Zone, Utah, USA. The microstructures, mapped using electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), developed at ~11 km depth during 300–400 ºC crystal-plastic deformation within the ductile fault zone. These microstructural maps were used to guide laser ablation-split stream ICP-MS analysis: U-Pb isotopes measured in tandem with major and trace element contents. Despite the low temperature, U-Pb and trace element contents in titanite equilibrated, at least partially, during deformation. Both major and trace elements in titanite also likely partitioned with a fluid and in response to the (re)crystallization of other mineral phases in the fault zone. Chemical zoning and crystal lattice recovery suggestive of fluid-aided recrystallization are absent, and the main mechanism for this resetting may instead be an enhancement of element mobility along microstructure dislocations. These processes are interpreted to record complex open-system behavior of titanite caused by crystal-plastic deformation during the initiation of the WFZ. This presentation will summarize the comparative analysis of microstructure by EBSD and titanite chemistry by LASS-ICP-MS, and how it bears on the understanding of elemental mobility in titanite during low-temperature crystal-plastic deformation.</p>
