We have studied the influence of the thermal treatment on the stress dependence of the switching field during the devitrification of amorphous Fe73.5Cu1Nb3Si11.5B11 microwires. The non-destructive test (NDT) method based on the magnetization reversal of ferromagnetic materials is sensible to changes in microstructural characteristics and the stress state of the material. The stress dependence has been explained considering the magnetoelastic contribution to the switching mechanism which is modified applying the tensile stresses and changing the magnetostriction constant and strength of the internal stresses distribution through thermal treatments. We show that by properly setting a frequency during the measurement and adequate treatment of the sample, it is possible to vary the sensitivity, magnitude and stress dependence of the sample.

Magnetic and mechanical properties of Co-rich amorphous microwires of nominal compositions (Co1–xMnx)75Si10 B15 (0.08 < x < 0.11) and Co56.5Fe6.5Ni10B16Si11 with nearly zero magnetostriction constant have been studied. Drastic changes of the hysteresis loop with the decrease of x from rectangular to flat shape were observed at x < 0.1, while the Co56.5Fe6.5Ni10B16Si11 microwire showed rectangular hysteresis loops. Compositions with x ≥ 0.1 have small but positive magnetostriction constant while negative λs values have been observed at x ≤ 4 0.09, indicating rectangular character of the hysteresis loop in samples with nearly zero and even for small negative λs. External stress dependence of switching field, H*, showed an increase of H*; with s for samples with x = 0.11 and a decrease of H* with σ for x = 0.1. Besides, microwires of the same composition but with different dimensions showed different H*(σ) dependencies.

AbstractIndustrial processing of tomato includes its cutting and mincing, thermal treatments, and the addition of ingredients, which might induce changes in physicochemical properties of the final products. In this frame, the impact of texturing/thickening [xanthan gum (X) or potato fiber (F)] on the macroscopic, mesoscopic and molecular properties of tomato double concentrate (TDC) was investigated to determine if F can efficiently substitute X, in association with small solutes (sugar and salt) and thermal treatment (cold and hot). At a macroscopic level, multivariate statistics (MANOVA) underlined that color change (ΔE) was increased by X and F addition contrary to heating and the addition of salt and sugar. MANOVA revealed that texture was greatly enhanced through the use of F over X. 1H NMR molecular mobility changes were more controlled by texturing agents (F and X) than thermal treatment and small solutes. Particularly F increased the more rigid population indicating stronger interaction with water molecules resulting in shear-thinning flow. However, adding X contributed into the increase of the dynamic and mobile populations. Therefore, F can be a valid “clean label” substitute of X in modulating tomato products properties.

Two kinds of theory for non-destructive inspection of ceramics were reviewed, which were derived by the authors using flaw-size distribution. In the sufficient condition theory (Realistic NDI), we had discussed about the screening flaw-size and a screening region. In the necessary and sufficient condition theory (Ideal NDI), we found that the screening flaw-size should be changed depending on stress state and specimen configuration. It was proved that there is one-to-one correspondence between Ideal NDI and a proof test. Applications to machining damage problems and surface strengthening of ceramics were also presented.

Abstract The paper deals with the method to identify internal stresses in two-dimensional steel members. Steel members were investigated in the delivery stage and after assembly, by means of electric-arc welding. In order to perform the member assessment two methods to identify the stress variation were applied. The first is a non-destructive measurement method employing local external magnetic field and to detecting the induced voltage, including Barkhausen noise The analysis of the latter allows to assess internal stresses in a surface layer of the material. The second method, essential in the paper, is a semi-trepanation Mathar method of tensometric strain variation measurement in the course of a controlled void-making in the material. Variation of internal stress distribution in the material led to the choice of welding technology to join. The assembly process altered the actual stresses and made up new stresses, triggering post-welding stresses as a response for the excessive stress variation.

ABSTRACTUnderstanding crystal orientation at the ferroelectric domain level, using a non destructive technique, is crucial for the design and characterization of nano-scale devices. In this study, piezoresponse force spectroscopy (PFS) is used to identify ferroelectric domain orientation. The impact of crystal orientation on the switching field of ferroelectric BaTiO3 is also investigated at the domain level. The preferential domain orientations for BaTiO3 thin films prepared by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) in this study are [001], [101] and [111]. They have been mapped onto PFS spectra to show three corresponding switching fields of 460, 330 and 120 kV/cm respectively. In addition, the electric field at which the enhanced piezoresponse occurs was found to vary, due to a phase change. The polarization reversal occurs via a 2-step process (rotation and switching) for [101] and [111] orientations. The piezoresponse enhancement is absent for the [001] (pure switching) domains. The results demonstrate that an electric field induced phase change causes the [101] and [111] domains to reverse polarization at a lower field than the [001] domain.
