Approximate Closed-Form Solutions for the Shift Mechanics of Rubber Belt Variators

2009

The mechanical behavior of V-belt variators during the speed ratio shift is different from the steady operation as a gross radial motion of the belt is superimposed to the circumferential motion. The theoretical analysis involves equilibrium equations similar to the steady case, but requires a re-formulation of the mass conservation condition making use of the Reynolds transport theorem. The mathematical model of the belt-pulley coupling implies the repeated numerical solution of a strongly non-linear differential system. Nevertheless, an attentive observation of the numerical diagrams suggests simple and useful closed-form approximations for the four possible working modes of any pulley, o…

Dynamics of a supercooled polymer melt above the mode-coupling critical temperature: cage versus polymer-specific effects

2000

This paper reports results of molecular dynamics simulations for a glassy polymer melt consisting of short, non-entangled chains. The temperature region studied covers the supercooled state of the melt above the mode-coupling critical temperature. The analysis focuses on the interplay of simple-liquid and polymer-specific effects. One can clearly distinguish two regimes: a regime of small and one of large monomer displacements. The first regime corresponds to motion of a monomer in its local environment. It is dominated by the cage effect and well described by the idealized mode-coupling theory. The second regime is governed by the late-β/early-α process. In this regime the connectivity of …

Inelastic and quasi-elastic light scattering in (NaCN)1?x(KCN)x quadrupolar glasses

1990

The elastic constantsc11 andc44, and the attenuation of longitudinal phonons along (100)-direction in (NaCN)1−x(KCN)x mixed crystals have been determined by brillouin spectroscopy in the temperature range fromT=10K−300K. Minima inc44 (T) which determine the freezing tempratureTF in these orientational glasses appear at lower temperatures compared to neutron scattering results. The coupling of molecular reorientations to longitudinal phonons in NaCN-rich smaples shows up in dispersion effects inc11 (T) and the appearence of a dynamical central peak nearTF.

Line mixing in the stimulated Raman spectrum of the ν1 band of SiH4 at 0.4–1.0 bar

1993

The stimulated Raman spectrum of the ν1 band of SiH4 has been recorded at 0.4 and 1.0 bar pressures and room temperature. Line mixing of the fine structure components of this spectrum was taken into account in a calculated profile by considering coupling between the main transitions and using a simple model (strong collision model, SCM) for the relaxation matrix.

Coupled rotational and translational modes in the mixed molecular crystal KBr1?x (CN) x

1980

TheE g andT 2g acoustic phonon modes of the molecular crystals KBr0.96(CN)0.04 and KBr0.86(CN)0.14 have been investigated by inelastic neutron scattering at 6, 90 and 300 K. Clear resonances due to mode-mode coupling to molecular excitations were observed. In complementary ultrasonic experiments the elastic constants were found to pass through minima as a function of temperature. The results were quantitavely explained by a model which assumes simple forms of the molecular excitation spectrum. An alternative interpretation, though being only qualitative, postulates a freezing of the CN molecules into a glass-like phase.

Coexistence of spin-crossover and antiferromagnetic coupling phenomena in the novel dinuclear Fe(II) complex [Fe(dpa)(NCS)2]2bpym

2003

Abstract The iron(II) spin crossover dinuclear compound [Fe(dpa)(NCS) 2 ] 2 bpym where dpa = 2,2 ′ -dipyridylamine and bpym = 2,2 ′ -bipyrimidine has been synthesized and characterized. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility and 57 Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy data provide evidence for a rather complete and continuous S=2 ( HS )↔S=0 (LS) spin-crossover behavior taking place in the temperature range 400–50 K (T 1/2 =245 K ) without the presence of a plateau at 50% of conversion. The absence of such plateau, which is characteristic of all dinuclear compounds so far studied, is interpreted in terms of synergetic effect between intramolecular and intermolecular interactions.

Selective Photoswitching of the Binuclear Spin Crossover Compound{[Fe(bt)(NCS)2]2(bpm)}into Two Distinct Macroscopic Phases

2005

The low-spin (LS-LS, $S=0$) diamagnetic form of the binuclear spin crossover complex ${[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{bt})(\mathrm{NCS}{)}_{2}{]}_{2}(\mathrm{bpm})}$ was selectively photoconverted into two distinct macroscopic phases at different excitation wavelengths (1342 or 647.1 nm). These long-lived metastable phases have been identified, respectively, as the symmetry-broken paramagnetic form (HS-LS, $\mathrm{S}=2$) and the antiferromagnetically coupled (HS-HS, $S=0$) high-spin form of the compound. The selectivity may be explained by the strong coupling of the primary excited states to the paramagnetic state.
