Significant developments have been made in recent years in the description of microstructure evolution and its effects on the creep behaviour in advanced 9-12%Cr steels. However, data available for assessing the predictability of the creep behaviour are somewhat scarce since creep testing has generally been for constant temperature and load conditions. The present investigation was conducted on three advanced 9-12%Cr martensitic/ferritic steels (P91, P92 and E911) in an effort to obtain more complete description and understanding of the role of degradation processes in high temperature creep during intermittent heating. A comparison between the creep characteristics of non-steady and monotonously loaded creep specimens has revealed no significant deterioration of the creep strength and fracture resistance of the steels P91, P92 and E911 under non-steady loading in power-law (dislocation) creep. The final part of this paper deals with detailed experimental microstructural and fractographic investigations of crept specimens to explain the observed creep behaviour. Special attention is paid to the thermodynamic calculations using the software package Thermo-Calc, that have been used to predict precipitation reactions during intermittent heating of 9-12% chromium steels. The results of the thermodynamic calculations are in a good agreement with experimental data.

High Temperature Components

Critical high temperature components of machines and structures are often subjected to complicated load and temperature histories. The closest laboratory simulation of service loading conditions involves creep under nonsteady temperatures and stresses. For example, the start up and shut down cycles can be well simulated by temperature variation by use of intermittent heating tests. Such approach is illustrated by recent experimental results on advanced high creep strength 9- 12%Cr ferritic-martensitic steels (P91, P92 and E911). A comparison between the creep characteristics of nonsteady and monotonously creep specimens has revealed no significant deterioration of the creep strength and fracture resistance of these steels in power-law (dislocation) creep.

AbstractThe cast nickel-base MAR-M247 superalloy has been widely used for high-temperature components. In this work, the creep behaviour of two alternates of MAR-M247 superalloy with different grain size processed at different temperatures of casting are compared. Under the creep testing conditions used in this study, only negligible differences of creep behaviour of the alternate alloys were found and the evaluated creep characteristics correspond to the power-law or dislocation creep. The microstructure of the alloys consists of a𝛾matrix with a eutectic,𝛾'strengthening cubic precipitates, and M6C and M23C6carbides. Increasing the temperature induces the dissolution of some M23C6carbides. Fractures of both variants of alloys exhibit a more ductile character at higher temperatures, while at lower temperature a mixture of brittle and ductile fracture modes was observed, which changes the creep fracture ductility.

Adequate quantification of the degree of fastener clamp load retained at bolted joint of Mg-Al alloys is crucial to develop new elevated temperature resistant Mg-alloys. Several attempts have been made in the past to model Bolt Load Retention (BLR) behaviour of Mg-alloys using different approaches. It must be mentioned that whereas these models attempt to predict BLR of the alloys investigated, the results of the models differ in most cases with the experiments by great margin. The BLR behaviour of Mg-alloy is geometry and material dependent. This means that, the configuration of the test sample, the compliance of the bolt/joint and creep response of the material under investigation play important role in determining the joint response under load and temperature. In this work, BLR and creep behaviour of Ca modified AS41 is investigated and compared to that of Mg4Al and AS41. A compliance-creep approach is used to model the response of these Mg-Al alloys at bolted joints. The model prediction of the BLR response and experimental results as obtained in this work are in good agreement. AS41+0.15 % Ca shows improved creep and BLR properties up to 175 °C. A correlation between the microstructures, creep and BLR results reveal that the formation of a ternary CaMgSi phase is responsible for the improved elevated temperature behaviour.

Aboutness has been studied from any number of angles. Brentano made it the defining feature of the mental. Phenomenologists try to pin down the aboutness features of particular mental states. Materialists sometimes claim to have grounded aboutness in natural regularities. Attempts have even been made, in library science and information theory, to operationalize the notion. However, it has played no real role in philosophical semantics, which is surprising. This is the first book to examine through a philosophical lens the role of subject matter in meaning. A long-standing tradition sees meaning as truth conditions, to be specified by listing the scenarios in which a sentence is true. Nothing is said about the principle of selection—about what in a scenario gets it onto the list. Subject matter is the missing link here. A sentence is true because of how matters stand where its subject matter is concerned. This book maintains that this is not just a feature of subject matter, but its essence. One indicates what a sentence is about by mapping out logical space according to its changing ways of being true or false. The notion of content that results—directed content—is brought to bear on a range of philosophical topics, including ontology, verisimilitude, knowledge, loose talk, assertive content, and philosophical methodology. The book represents a major advance in semantics and the philosophy of language.

Atherosclerotic disease is still one of the leading causes of mortality. Atherosclerosis is a complex progressive and systematic artery disease that involves the intima of the large and middle artery vessels. The inflammation has a key role in the pathophysiological process of the disease and the infiltration of the intima from monocytes, macrophages and T-lymphocytes combined with endothelial dysfunction and accumulated oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) are the main findings of atherogenesis. The development of atherosclerosis involves multiple genetic and environmental factors. Although a large number of genes, genetic polymorphisms, and susceptible loci have been identified in chromosomal regions associated with atherosclerosis, it is the epigenetic process that regulates the chromosomal organization and genetic expression that plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Despite the positive progress made in understanding the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, the knowledge about the disease remains scarce.

The final chapter of this book advances four main conclusions on the role of international law in landscape protection. These relate to state obligations regarding landscape protection, the influence of the World Heritage Convention and the European Landscape Convention, the substantive and procedural nature of landscape rights, and the role of EU law. It is argued that, although state practice is lagging behind the normative developments made in the field of international landscape protection, landscape has contributed positively to the corpus of international cultural heritage law and indeed has emerged as a nascent field of international law in its own right.

I analyse the role of simultaneity in relativistic rotation by building incrementally on its role in simpler scenarios. Historically, rotation has been analysed in 1 + 1 dimensions; but my stance is that a 2 + 1 -dimensional treatment is necessary. This treatment requires a discussion of what constitutes a frame, how coordinate choices differ from frame choices, and how poor coordinates can be misleading. I determine how precisely we are able to define a meaningful time coordinate on a gravity-free rotating Earth, and discuss complications due to gravity on our real Earth. I end with a critique of several statements made in relativistic precision-timing literature, that I maintain contradict the tenets of relativity. Those statements tend to be made in the context of satellite-based navigation; but they are independent of that technology, and hence are not validated by its success. I suggest that if relativistic precision-timing adheres to such analyses, our civilian timing is likely to suffer in the near future as clocks become ever more precise.

This paper provides new physical insight into the coupling between flow dynamics and cavitation bubble cloud behaviour at conditions relevant to both cavitation inception and the more complex phenomenon of flow “choking” using a multiphase compressible framework. Understanding the cavitation bubble cloud process and the parameters that determine its break-off frequency is important for control of phenomena such as structure vibration and erosion. Initially, the role of the pressure waves in the flow development is investigated. We highlight the differences between “physical” and “artificial” numerical waves by comparing cases with different boundary and differencing schemes. We analyse in detail the prediction of the coupling of flow and cavitation dynamics in a micro-channel 20 m high containing Diesel at pressure differences 7 MPa and 8.5 MPa, corresponding to cavitation inception and "choking" conditions respectively. The results have a very good agreement with experimental data and demonstrate that pressure wave dynamics, rather than the “re-entrant jet dynamics” suggested by previous studies, determine the characteristics of the bubble cloud dynamics under “choking” conditions.

Experimentally, a reversal of chemoselectivity has been observed in catalyzed Diels–Alder reactions of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes (e.g., (2E)-but-2-enal) and ketones (e.g., 2-hexen-4-one) with cyclopentadiene. Indeed, using the triflimidic Brønsted acid Tf2NH as catalyst, the reaction gave a Diels–Alder adduct derived from α,β-unsaturated ketone as a major product. On the other hand, the use of tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane B(C6F5)3 bulky Lewis acid as catalyst gave mainly the cycloadduct of α,β-unsaturated aldehyde as a major product. Our aim in the present work is to put in evidence the role of the catalyst in the reversal of the chemoselectivity of the catalyzed Diels–Alder reactions of (2E)-but-2-enal and 2-Hexen-4-one with cyclopentadiene. The calculations were performed at the ωB97XD/6-311G(d,p) level of theory and the solvent effects of dichloromethane were taken into account using the PCM solvation model. The obtained results are in good agreement with experimental outcomes.
