Dynamic SIF of interface crack between two dissimilar viscoelastic bodies under impact loading

In this paper, the transient dynamic stress intensity factor (SIF) is determined for an interface crack between two dissimilar half-infinite isotropic viscoelastic bodies under impact loading. An anti-plane step loading is assumed to act suddenly on the surface of interface crack of finite length. The stress field incurred near the crack tip is analyzed. The integral transformation method and singular integral equation approach are used to get the solution. By virtue of the integral transformation method, the viscoelastic mixed boundary problem is reduced to a set of dual integral equations of crack open displacement function in the transformation domain. The dual integral equations can be further transformed into the first kind of Cauchy-type singular integral equation (SIE) by introduction of crack dislocation density function. A piecewise continuous function approach is adopted to get the numerical solution of SIE. Finally, numerical inverse integral transformation is performed and the dynamic SIF in transformation domain is recovered to that in time domain. The dynamic SIF during a small time-interval is evaluated, and the effects of the viscoelastic material parameters on dynamic SIF are analyzed.

Estudio preliminar sobre la utilización de la semilla de ayote (Cucurbita maxima) en el control de parasitos gastrointestinales en terneros de 3-8 meses de edad en la Hacienda San Emilio, Granada

El presente estudio se realizó con el objetivo de determinar si la semilla de ayote (Cucurbita maxima) fresca ejerce algún efecto en el control de parásitos gastrointestinales en terneros, el cual fue realizado en la Hacienda San Emilio ubicada en el Municipio de Diriomo, departamento de Granada, la temperatura del lugar oscila entre los 27-34ºC. La duración del experimento fue de 14 días a partir de la selección, identificación de los animales y aplicación de los tratamientos. En el estudio se utilizaron tablas de contingencia de variables dicotómicas: control total y reducción parasitaria como columnas y tratamientos como filas. Para el estudio se seleccionaron 20 animales entre los 3-8 meses de edad, estos se dividieron en 4 grupos constituidos por 5 animales para cada uno de los 4 tratamientos; Tratamiento 1: Doramectina 1% (10mg/50kg) SC, Tratamiento 2: semilla de ayote a dosis de 240 mg/kg/ día por 3 días PO, Tratamiento 3: semilla de ayote a dosis de 240mg/ kg por un día PO,Tratamiento 4: animales sin tratamiento. A los animales se les realizaron análisis coprológicos al inicio del estudio para identificar la familia de parásitos y la carga parasitaria. Los terneros fueron pesados e identificados para la aplicación de los tratamientos; posteriormente se realizó otro análisis coprológico con la técnica de Mc Master a los 14 días después del primer día de aplicación de los tratamientos. Se identificaron las familias Trichost rongylidae, Eimeriidae y Strongyloididae. Para la familia Eimeriidae demostró tener un mejor efecto el tratamiento con semilla de ayote; en lo que refiere a disminución de la carga parasitaria tanto la semilla de ayote como la doramectina resultaron efectivos en las familias Trichostrongylidae y Eimeriidae, mientras que en la familia Strongyloididae solo fue efectiva la doramectina. A través del análisis de costos se determinó que es económicamente factible la utilización de semilla de ayote en la Coccidiosis.

Two-dimensional Cartesian air-gap element (CAGE) for dynamic finite-element modeling of electrical machines with a flat air gap

This paper extends the air-gap element (AGE) to enable the modeling of flat air gaps. AGE is a macroelement originally proposed by Abdel-Razek et al.for modeling annular air gaps in electrical machines. The paper presents the theory of the new macroelement and explains its implementation within a time-stepped finite-element (FE) code. It validates the solution produced by the new macroelement by comparing it with that obtained by using an FE mesh with a discretized air gap. It then applies the model to determine the open-circuit electromotive force of an axial-flux permanent-magnet machine and compares the results with measurements.

Upwind compact method and direct numerical-simulation of driven flow in a square cavity

A high-order accurate finite-difference scheme, the upwind compact method, is proposed. The 2-D unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved in primitive variables. The nonlinear convection terms in the governing equations are approximated by using upwind biased compact difference, and other spatial derivative terms are discretized by using the fourth-order compact difference. The upwind compact method is used to solve the driven flow in a square cavity. Solutions are obtained for Reynolds numbers as high as 10000. When Re less than or equal to 5000, the results agree well with those in literature. When Re = 7500 and Re = 10000, there is no convergence to a steady laminar solution, and the flow becomes unsteady and periodic.

有源波导环形谐振腔滤波特性分析

将掺铒有源波导材料引入环形谐振腔结构，从理论上分析了有源波导环形谐振腔的滤波特性。结果表明由于抽运光提供的增益补偿了腔内损耗，使得环形谐振腔满足临界耦合条件，实现对信号光的最佳陷波，同时发现通过改变抽运光功率，可以对精细度和带宽进行动态调谐。分析了铒离子掺杂浓度、信号光功率以及抽运光耦合系数对最佳陷波抽运功率的影响，为有源波导器件设计制作提供了理论依据。

Effect of OH- content on emission properties in Er3+-doped tellurite glasses

A series of tellurite glasses of composition, 75TeO(2)-20ZnO-(5 - x)La2O3-xEr(2)O(3) (x = 0.05, 0.1, 0.3, 0.6, 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 mol%) with different hydroxl content were prepared. The effect of Er3+ and OH- groups concentration on the emission properties of Er3+: I-4(13/2) -> I-4(15/2) transition in tellurite glasses was investigated. The constant KOH-Er for Er3+ in tellurite glasses, which represents the strength of interaction between Er3+ and OH- groups in the case of energy migration, was about 14 x 10(-19) cm(4) s(-1). The interaction parameter C-Er,C-Er for the migration rate of Er3+ : 4I(13/2) -> I-4(13/2) transition in tellurite glass was 46 x 10(-40) cm(2), which indicates that concentration quenching in Er3+-doped modified tellurite glass for a given Er3+ concentration is much stronger than in silicate and phosphate glasses.
