Comparative microstructural studies and mechanical tests of an experimental austenic manganese alloy and typical structural materials have been carried out. As a result of the research, relative data have been revealed, indicating high mechanical properties of the experimental alloy, which makes it possible to recommend it for machine parts operating at high load-speed operating conditions and temperature exposure up to 700 0C.

Despite the fact that the mechanical properties of Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC) after high-temperature exposure are well investigated in the literature, the repeated impact response of ECC is not yet explored. Aiming to evaluate the residual impact response of ECC subjected to sub-high temperatures under repeated drop weight blows, the ACI 544-2R repeated impact test was utilized in this study. Disk impact specimens (150 mm diameter and 64 mm thickness) were prepared from the M45 ECC mixture but using polypropylene fibers, while similar 100 mm cube specimens and 100 × 100 × 400 mm prism specimens were used to evaluate the compressive and flexural strengths. The specimens were all cast, cured, heated, cooled, and tested under the same conditions and at the same age. The specimens were subjected to three temperatures of 100, 200 and 300 °C, while a group of specimens was tested without heating as a reference group. The test results showed that heating to 100 and 200 °C did not affect the impact resistance noticeably, where the retained cracking and failure impact numbers and ductility were higher or slightly lower than those of unheated specimens. On the other hand, exposure to 300 °C led to a serious deterioration in the impact resistance and ductility. The retained failure impact numbers after exposure to 100, 200, and 300 °C were 313, 257, and 45, respectively, while that of the reference specimens was 259. The results also revealed that the impact resistance at this range of temperature showed a degree of dependency on the compressive strength behavior with temperature.

Abstract. Obtaining wood with high performance properties on the basis of chemical and mechanical action as a result of optimization of technological processes and the use of temperature exposure. The initial raw material is hardwood (aspen, alder), which are little used in construction and in the production of finishing materials. The condition for obtaining wood with high operating properties (increasing density, strength, reducing water saturation, ensuring the dimensional stability of samples for a long time) is the ability of wood as a natural polymer to change properties under the combined effect of temperature and pressure.

AbstractThe residual compressive strength of eight lightweight concrete mixtures containing three commercial grading (Liapor HD 5 N, Liapor HD 7 N, and Liapor 8F) of coarse lightweight aggregate (LWA) were determined after to expose at high temperatures. Eight mixes were produced, two by normal weight aggregate and the rest by different types of LWA. The produced concrete was analyzed after high temperature exposure and the effect of using LWA, the type of LWA, and compaction method was studied. To do so, visual inspection, residual compressive strength, crack pattern, spalling, and thermoanalytical analysis were conducted. Generally, it could be concluded that concrete formulations with LWA behave more advantageous up to 500 °C, compared to those with quartz gravel aggregates. Moreover, this study found that an ideal type of LWA to produce structural concrete was Liapor HD 5 N, which was used for producing the mixes L1 and L3.

When developing food products with new properties using innovative technologies, it is important to obtain data on the physicochemical, thermal-physical and structural-mechanical properties of the processed food media. So, one of the key components in the selection of the mode of collapsing ultrasonic cavitation is the surface tension of vegetable purees. The paper presents research data (2020) on the effect of temperature on the surface tension coefficient of fruit puree of different viscosity. The objects of research are cherry plum, pear and apple puree, combined in a row by viscosity. The surface tension coefficient was determined by the stalagmometric method, for which the puree was preliminarily centrifuged. The measurements were carried out at temperatures of 25 and 35 °С. It was found that, under equal conditions of centrifugation of puree, the proportion of supernatant in pear puree is noticeably higher – 77.37 % to the weight of puree in comparison with cherry plum puree (67.20 %) and apple puree (52.75 %). This fact can be explained by the presence of stony cells in the former which form an incompressible sediment, which allows a greater separation of the dispersed phase (sediment) and the dispersion medium (supernatant). It was found that the coefficient of surface tension of fruit purees, despite the slight difference, decreases with increasing temperature. Analysis of the steepness of the slope of the curve characterizing the effect of temperature on the surface tension coefficient showed that temperature stabilization during technological processing is more required for pear puree.

ObjectivesEvidence on the associations between short-term and long-term air temperature exposure and cognitive function in older adults, particularly those in Asia, is limited. We explored the relationships of short-term and long-term air temperature exposure with cognitive function in Taiwanese older adults through a repeated measures survey.Design and settingWe used data the ongoing Taiwan Longitudinal Study on Aging, a multiple-wave nationwide survey.ParticipantsWe identified 1956, 1700, 1248 and 876 older adults in 1996, 1999, 2003 and 2007, respectively.Primary and secondary outcome measuresParticipants’ cognitive function assessment was based on the Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire. We calculated the temperature moving average (TMA) for temperature exposure windows between 1993 and 2007 using data from air quality monitoring stations, depending on the administrative zone of each participant’s residence. Generalised linear mixed models were used to examine the effects of short-term and long-term temperature changes on cognitive function.ResultsShort-term and long-term temperature exposure was significantly and positively associated with moderate-to-severe cognitive impairment, with the greatest increase in ORs found for 3-year TMAs (OR 1.247; 95% CI 1.107 to 1.404). The higher the quintiles of temperature exposure were, the higher were the ORs. The strongest association found was in long-term TMA exposure (OR 3.674; 95% CI 2.103 to 6.417) after covariates were controlled for.ConclusionsThe risk of mild cognitive impairment increased with ambient temperature in community-dwelling older adults in Taiwan.
