Peftjauawybast, king of Nen-nesut : genealogy, art history, and the chronology of late libyan Egypt

This paper argues in detail for the identification of Peftjauawybast, King of Nen-nesut (fl. 728/720 BC ), with Peftjauawybast, High Priest of Ptah in Memphis (fl. c. 790–780 BC2), known from the Apis stela of year 28 of Shoshenq III. This identification ties in with a significant lowering of the accepted dates for the kings from Shoshenq III, Osorkon III and Takeloth III to Shoshenq V, and the material culture associated with them. Such a shift seems to be supported by stylistic and genealogical evidence. As a consequence, it is further suggested that the Master of Shipping at Nen-nesut, Pediese i, was perhaps related by descent and marriage to the family of the High Priests of Memphis and King Peftjauawybast.

Microstructure, deformation and failure of polymer bonded explosives

Polymer bonded explosives (PBXs) are highly particle filled composite materials comprised of explosive crystals and a polymeric binder (ca. 5-10% by weight). The microstructure and mechanical properties of two pressed PBXs with different binder systems were studied in this paper. The initial microstructure of the pressed PBXs and its evolution under different mechanical aggressions were studied, including quasi-static tension and compression, ultrasonic wave stressing and long-pulse low-velocity impact. Real-time microscopic observation of the PBXs under tension was conducted by using a scanning electron microscope equipped with a loading stage. The mechanical properties under tensile creep, quasi-static tension and compression were studied. The Brazilian test, or diametrical compression, was used to study the tensile properties. The influences of pressing pressures and temperatures, and strain rates on the mechanical properties of PBXs were analyzed. The mesoscale damage modes in initial pressed samples and the samples insulted by different mechanical aggressions, and the corresponding failure mechanisms of the PBXs under different loading conditions were analyzed.

Evaluación de quince genotipos de frijol negro (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), en El Plan San Isidro – Matagalpa, primera 2013

v RESUMEN El presente ensayo se realizó en la comunidad de El Plan, San Isidro, Matagalpa, durante la época de primera (Junio – Agosto) del 2013 con el objetivo de evaluar genotipos promisorios de frijol negro ( Phaseolus vulgaris L .) que proporcionen altos rendimientos en kg/ha. Se evaluaron 15 genotipos procedentes del Zamorano Honduras, CIAT Colombia, además del testigo Inta Cárdenas. El ensayo se estableció en un diseño experimental de bloques completamente al azar con 3 repeticiones. Se evaluó el rendimiento y sus componentes, variables feno lógicas . Se realizó análisis de varianza para las variables en estudio y se realizó la separación de medias por Tukey, de acuerdo a la probabilidad obtenida en el análisis de varianza. En cuanto a los componentes del rendimiento, plantas por hectárea, vain as por planta, número de granos por vaina y el peso de 100 g ranos presentaron diferencias significativas , siete de los genotipos mostraron mayor rendimiento con respecto a la mayoría de genotipos, oscilando entre 2059.70 kg/ha y 1484.30 kg/ha , por lo que s e adapta n al ambiente y sistema de producción de los agricultores de San I sidro – Matagalpa, N icaragua . En cuanto a las variables fenológicas se observó que no hay gran diferencia entre los genotipos evaluados en el estudio para los caracteres de días a fl oración y madurez fisiológica, por lo que cua lquiera de estos genotipos es apto para producirse en el municipio de San Isidro – Matagalpa, N icaragua

An experimental-study of the bending behavior of call hybrid composites

The bending behavior and damage characteristics of CALL (Carbon fiber/epoxy/AL Laminate) hybrid composites have been studied by moire interferometry. The shear strain distribution along the cross-section and the forms of damage of bending beams are obtained. The results show that the magnitude of the shear strain in a carbon/epoxy layer is obviously larger than that in a corresponding aluminum layer and the shear strain distribution of a CFRP layer along the cross-section conforms basically to a parabolic distribution curve, as for the shear strain distribution in aluminum layers along the cross-section. Shear damage, either in the interfaces or in carbon-fiber/epoxy laminae, and tensile failure of CFRP laminae in the tension surface represent, respectively, the damage forms of the longitudinal and transverse bending specimen.

Ablation of hydrogen isotopic spherical pellet due to the impact of energetic ions of the respective isotopes

The ablation rate of a hydrogen isotopic spherical pellet G(is) due to the impact of energetic ions of the respective isotopes and its scaling law are obtained using the transsonic neutral-shielding model, where subscript s might refer to either hydrogen or deuterium. Numerical results show that if E0s/E0e2 greater-than-or-equal-to 1.5, G(is)/G(es) greater-than-or-equal-to 20%, where E0s and E0e are the energy of undisturbed ion and electron, respectively, and G(es) is the ablation rate of a pellet due to the impact of electrons. Hence, under the NBI heating, the effect of the impact of energetic ions on the pellet ablation should be taken into consideration. This result also gives an explanation of the observed enhancement of pellet ablation during NBIH.
