Abstract:
Abstract The development of flexible fibres in the refining of mechanical pulps requires large amounts of energy and it is important to find means of making this process more efficient. One way to obtain flexibility is thought to be by the initiation of cracks parallel to the cell wall. This process was studied during sinusoidal radial compression (10 Hz) of softwood at 20 and 95°C. Sections of compressed specimens were observed in a light microscope, or ESEM (Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope). To create a contrast, i.e. to enhance the damaged areas, Simons' stain was used for light microscopy and swelling in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) for ESEM. However, no parallel cracks were observed in any of the compressed specimens by the methods used, even after up to 10000 compressions. There was, however, a slight tendency towards a weakening in the structure at the cell corner area observed as parallel cracks in specimens dried in their compressed state. This could be an indication of the initiation sites for the permanent deformation of fibres in refining.

Abstract:
Fiber development of mechanical pulps is normally assessed by a combination of conventional numerical analyses of fiber features using FiberMaster, PulpEye, and Kajaani instruments. When observed, changes in fiber morphology are normally subjective with use of light- and electron microscopy observations of representative fibers. Thus, visualization and quantification of changes in the fiber cell wall, like delaminaton/internal fibrillation (D/IF) induced during processing, would offer a great advantage. Here, we developed a method using Simons’ stain (SS) that allows quantification of pulp fiber development in terms of fiber wall D/IF during different process conditions, as well as statistical analysis of whole pulp fiber populations of different thermomechanical pulp (TMP) types for the degree of D/IF developed in pulp fibers. The attributes of SS for producing different colored reactions (blue, green, orange, etc.) in pulp fibers through cell wall modification during processing were used in correlation with light microscopy. The method readily measured the degree of cell wall D/IF of pulp fibers from different double-disc refined TMPs produced using varying levels of specific energy and refining pressures. The SS method revealed the presence of five sub-fiber populations in a whole pulp of a given TMP type representing different categories of fibers that possessed varying degrees of cell wall D/IF as a result of process conditions/treatments. Results of statistical analysis indicated that, while D/IF was significantly induced by both the applied refining pressure and specific energy, the effect of energy had the greatest influence. Based on statistical analysis for Bauer McNett fractions of 10, 30, and 50 mesh, we suggest that fraction 30 is the most suitable fiber fraction for the analysis of TMPs using fiber characterization procedures, as this fraction possesses the most treated fibers. The method provided useful information regarding pulp fiber development at the cell wall level that has the potential to explain pulp and paper properties developed in furnishes. The present SS method represents a valuable tool for assessing fiber development at the cell wall level in mechanical pulping.

Abstract:
AbstractThe aim of this study was to evaluate changes in fibre properties with high (HC)- and low consistency (LC) refining of TMP and determine how these contribute to tensile index. Two process configurations, one with only HC refining and another with HC refining followed by LC refining were evaluated in three TMP mainline processes in two mills using Norway spruce. An increase in tensile index for a given applied specific energy was similar for all LC refiners in the three lines, despite differences in the fibre property profiles of the feed pulps. Compared with only HC refined pulps at a given tensile index, HC+LC refined pulps had greater fibre wall thickness, similar fibre length, strain at break and freeness, but lower light scattering coefficient, fibre curl and external fibrillation. The degree of internal fibrillation, determined by Simons’ stain measurements, was similar for both configurations at a given tensile index. The results indicate that the increase in tensile index in LC refining is largely influenced by a decrease in fibre curl and in HC refining by peeling of the fibre walls. Compared at a given tensile index, the shive content (Somerville mass fraction) was similar for both HC+LC and HC refining.

Abstract:
Objectives: This study was carried out to evaluate the patients of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) on statin therapy for general biochemical abnormalities. Study Design: Case-Control observational study. Setting: Department of Chemical Pathology (Army Medical College/Military Hospital Rawalpindi) in collaboration with center for research in experimental and applied medicine (CREAM lab). Periods: From Jan 2017 to Jan 2018. Material & Methods: A total of one hundred participants were recruited in this study. These hundred cases were further divided into two groups. First group comprised of fifty disease free healthy cases, while the second group included the patients of familial hypercholesterolemia diagnosed on the basis of Simon Broom criteria. This second group was categorized into further two groups on the basis of patients taking statin therapy or not. Fasting blood sample was taken from these cases complete blood count, liver function tests, fasting plasma glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, lipid profile and renal function tests were performed on these blood samples and the results were compared to find out any biochemical variance in control and cases. Results of this study were analyzed on SPSS v.23. Results: The analysis of lipid profile including total cholesterol (T.Ch), triglycerides (TRG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high density cholesterol (HDL-C) showed a highly significant difference in cases and controls. Alanine aminotransferease (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and bilirubin also showed a significant variation. While diabetic profile, urea, creatinine, hemoglobin and body mass index didn’t show any significant variation among cases and controls. Conclusion: It is well-known that statins prove to be more superior to other classes of anti-hyperlipidemic, but at same time use of statins are also associated with other biochemical derangements. Diabetes mellitus is one of them. Therefore, a close monitoring protocol is required during statin therapy.

Abstract:
Biomass recalcitrance has been recognized as one of the major barriers that hided the cost-effective conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to bioethanol, therefore the current bioconversion process require an essential step known as pretreatment to increase the cellulose accessibility. This thesis provides information about changes in cellulose accessibility upon different pretreatments, along with how these pretreatments alter the chemical and physical structures of biomass, will be extremely helpful to further optimize the current pretreatment process. Multiple promising analytical techniques including Simons’ stain, NMR cryoporometry, relaxometry, mercury porosimetry was introduced and successfully applied on pretreated biomass samples to characterize the cellulose accessible surface area and biomass porosity. Different pretreatments increase cellulose accessibility through different mechanisms to different extent. Dilute acid pretreatment is more effective than steam explosion in terms of increasing accessible surface area of cellulose as reflected by Simons’ stain and NMR cryoporometry, while NMR relaxometry suggested steam explosion is more effective at pore expansion for the cell wall water pools detected by changes in NMR relaxation time. Alkaline pretreatment decreased cellulose degree of polymerization, cellulose crystallinity, lignin content and subsequently increased cellulose accessibility, with sodium hydroxide pretreatment proved to be much more effective compared lime or soaking in ammonia pretreatment. Delignification through alkaline-based pretreatment is found less effective than removal of hemicellulose using acid in terms of cellulose accessibility increase. Lignin didn’t directly dictate cellulose accessibility but rather restricted xylan accessibility which in turn controls the access of cellulase to cellulose. Pore size distribution analysis based on mercury porosimetry also indicated that the most fundamental barrier in terms of biomass porosity scale for efficient enzymatic hydrolysis is the nano-pore space formed between coated microfibrils, despite some of the porous architecture such as cell lumen and pit could be severely destroyed after pretreatment. The action of cellulase on the characteristics of cellulosic fractions obtained from pretreated biomass was also investigated. Cellulose accessibility was found to increase at the beginning of hydrolysis, and after reaching a maximum value then starting to decrease. Enzymatic hydrolysis resulted in a rapid decrease in the cellulose degree of polymerization then gradually leveled off, suggesting the existence of a synergistic action of endo- and exo-glucanases that contribute to the occurrence of a peeling off type mechanism.

Abstract:
Abstract In the field of failure analysis, electrical failures caused by improper implantation are often difficult to debug especially for fully processed products. Familiar implantation failure issues include improper implantation concentration, error doping types, incorrect doping ranges, and etc. Although some FA equipments, such as secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), spreading resistance probe (SRP) and scanning capacitance microscope (SCM) [1] [2] [3], can do detail or quantitative analysis for these failure issues, most of these FA jobs are time-consuming and have a detection limitation at the size of failure area. This limitation may restrict the FA applications because the failure area is usually small at the fully processed products after fault isolation. In this paper, two examples with improper doping type and concentration will be analyzed by using a newly developed FA method. Instead of using traditional cross-section (X-S) stain method, we utilize a plane-view stain method to compare the doping type and doping concentration between normal and failed regions. With the aid of the plane-view stain method, we can have a quick check at the suspected failure area with improper front-end implantation before specific SCM analysis.

Abstract:
Based on Silicon on Insulator (SOI) and Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) technology, a single-crystal silicon piezoresistive strain gage was fabricated and constituted by silicon substrate, a thin SiO2 layer by Separation by Implantation of Oxygen (SIMOX), an optimized boron ion implantation doping layer photo lithographed to discrete piezoresistors, stress matching Si3N4 layer, and metallization scheme of Ti/Pt/Au as beam lead layer for connecting piezoresistors to be Wheatstone bridge configuration. A special buried SiO2 layer with the thickness of 367 nm was fabricated by the SIMOX technology, which replaced p-n junction to isolate the piezoresistors from the bulk silicon substrate, so this kind of single-crystal silicon strain gage can be used in many harsh fields under high temperature up to 350°C. By the single-crystal silicon strain gage packaged on the metallic circular flat diaphragm, and along with other thermal treatments and compensating methods, a high temperature pressure sensor has been developed with the pressure range of 0–120 MPa under high temperature above 200°C. The testing results show that the sensor has good static performances under 200°C and fine dynamic characteristics to meet the requirements of the modern industry, such as petroleum and chemistry, mobile industry, military industry, wind tunnels, materials processing.

Full text
Abstract:
The stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of pipeline steels in coating disbondment chemistry (near neutral pH solution) was studied by using slow strain rate tests (SSRT), polarization techniques, SEM and SIMS (secondary ion mass spectroscope). It was found that SCC susceptibility increased as the applied electrochemical potential and strain rates decreased. Hydrogen (H) precharging or addition of CO2 facilitated the process of SCC, suggesting that dissolution and hydrogen ingress are involved in the cracking process. SIMS analysis showed that hydrogen could diffuse into steels around the crack tip during the SCC process, which would facilitate the dissolution rate of the steel and increase SCC susceptibility. A mechanism was proposed which shows that hydrogen enhances anodic dissolution type of SCC in dilute aqueous solution. A thermodynamic analysis of the SCC process was carried out, and was found to be consistent with the experimental results.

In a 2007 paper entitled “Application of Failure Event Data to Benchmark Probabilistic Fracture Mechanics (PFM) Computer Codes” (Simonen, F. A., Gosselin, S. R., Lydell, B. O. Y., Rudland, D. L., & Wikowski, G. M. Proc. ASME PVP Conf., San Antonio, TX, Paper PVP2007-26373), it was reported that the two benchmarked PFM models, PRO-LOCA and PRAISE, predicted significantly higher failure probabilities of cracking than those derived from field data in three PWR and one BWR cases by a factor ranging from 30 to 10,000. To explain the reasons for having such a large discrepancy, the authors listed ten sources of uncertainties: (1) Welding Residual Stresses. (2) Crack Initiation Predictions. (3) Crack Growth Rates. (4) Circumferential Stress Variation. (5) Operating temperatures different from design temperatures. (6) Temperature factor in actual activation energy vs. assumed. (7) Under reporting of field data due to NDE limitations. (8) Uncertainty in modeling initiation, growth, and linking of multiple cracks around the circumference of a weld. (9) Correlation of crack initiation times and growth rates. (10) Insights from NUREG/CR-6674 (2000) fatigue crack growth models using conservative inputs for cyclic strain rates and environmental parameters such as oxygen content. In this paper we design a Python-based plug-in that allows a user to address those ten sources of uncertainties. This approach is based on the statistical theory of design of experiments with a 2-level factorial design, where a small number of runs is enough to estimate the uncertainties in the predictions of PFM models due to some combination of the source uncertainties listed by Simonen et al (PVP2007-26373).

Abstract:
This paper presents an improved analytical model for the unbonded flexible pipe stress analysis with consideration of nonlinear material properties for metal layers. Analytical methods have often been used to analyse the stress and strain of flexible pipe systems because of their low cost and efficiency compared with detailed finite element modeling. Most of these kinds of models only consider the deformation of pipes within the elastic region. Such linear models can not be used directly to assess pipe failure modes such as the pipe burst strength, where the nonlinearity of the metallic material plays an important role in governing the pipe deformation and pipe structural capacity. The improved analytical model presented in this paper has fully considered the nonlinearity of metal layers such as the pressure armour and tensile armour layers because of their importance in resisting internal pressure and tension loads. Non-associative elasto-plastic stress strain curves obtained from experiments are used to simulate the metal layers. Von Mises stress is adopted in the model as the yield criterion of the metal layers. Radial return method (Simo and Taylor 1985 [1], Simo and Hughes 1998 [2]) is used to solve the plastic stress and strain of metal layers beyond the yield point. Due to its high nonlinearity from both system equations and material properties, Newton-Raphson method is adopted in the model as the solving method. The proposed study here considers tension, torque and pressure loads only for a straight pipe. The model predictions have been compared against measurements from Wellstream burst tests and failure tension tests performed over the full scale pipe samples. The prediction and experiment results agree.

Abstract:
During forming operation of electrogalvanized steel sheets, the crystallographic orientation of the zinc coating may evolve from a pyramidal texture to a basal one. As a consequence, the adsorption of lubricant additives onto the zinc surface may be altered. Plane-strain compression tests and XRD analysis are carried out to study the texture evolution. After deformation, the samples are cleaned and their reactivity versus fatty acids are measured by ToF-SIMS analysis. It is shown that fatty acids adsorb much more strongly on a pyramidal oriented zinc surface than on a basal one.

Abstract:
The use of surveillance specimens was identified in a roadmap (Sims, 2010, ASME HTGR Code Development Roadmap, STP-NU-045, American Society of Mechanical Engineers, New York, NY) developed for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission for non-light water reactors that are intended to have very long design lives on the order of 500,000 hours. Creep-rupture, long term strain accumulation, creep-fatigue damage, and their interaction with environmental effects require significant extrapolation from shorter term tests. Surveillance specimens provide a means for confirmation of these extrapolations in-situ. The effects of cyclic service on creep-fatigue damage would be particularly challenging based on conventional mechanical testing. Proposed herein is a passive cyclic testing methodology that lends itself well to in-situ surveillance applications. The concept is based on utilizing the difference in the thermal expansion coefficient of candidate materials to generate cyclic loading based on operational thermal transients. Prototypical specimen designs are proposed and their in-situ response to representative plant operation are evaluated.

Abstract:
Numerous biological, biomedical or chemical engineering processes involve non-Newtonian fluids as shear-thinning or shear-thickening fluids. As early as 1969, Lumley [1] investigated the influence of the non-Newtonian characteristics on the Kolmogorov cascade. In 1986, De Gennes [2] revisited such point of view by considering more precisely elasticity and shear thinning properties. As of today, the correlation between elasticity and other flow properties is still unclear, recent numerical simulations attempted to clarify the issue with the use of FENE-P or other linear viscoelastic models. The goal of this experimental work is to further clarify these assumptions by using new optical tools (PIV, PLIF) to study non-Newtonian decaying isotropic homogeneous turbulence (IHT), using the approach and analysis of the 1971 work of Comte-Bellot and Corrsin [3] for Newtonian fluids, and more recently (2010, 2011) by Lenoir et al. [4]. The experimental set-up consists of a small, 1m long liquid channel, with a cross-section of 6.6 × 6.6 cm2, as in Simoëns and Ayrault [5]. In order to obtain best possible quasi-isotropic flow for sufficient large Reynolds numbers (see Comte-Bellot and Corrsin [6]), the grid was installed transversally upstream the flow, at the outlet of a contraction chamber; the grid squared mesh was 8mm wide. A PIV Lavision System with two synchronized pulsed YAG Lasers was used to obtain Instantaneous velocity maps on selected vertical plane crossing longitudinally the channel at its center. The flow was seeded with 10μm diameter fluorescent particles for PIV measurements. IHT experiments were done on a 1% carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) aqueous solution (such dilute CMC solution is non-Newtonian as shown in the 2008 work of Benchabane and Bekkour [7]) and then compared to measurements in water at the same flow rate. To prevent molecular modification of the CMC fluid structure out of its natural shear stress, the flow was driven by gravity, not by a pump. For this study, the water flow Reynolds number was 1600; the flow regime was too low to reach a turbulent state. Frequent rheometer checks were performed during the CMC experiments to verify the preservation of the integral shear thinning properties of the fluids. For the CMC flow, the Reynolds number was determined locally, based on the local viscosity after a Carreau-Yasuda model of order 2, in which γ̇ is the rate of shear strain, η is the viscosity at iteration n, η0 is the viscosity at zero shear rate; λ is a constant with units of time, where 1/λ is the critical shear rate at which viscosity begins to decrease (see Nguyen et al. (2010, 2012) [8], [9]).
