A Raman calibration for the quantification of SO42-groups dissolved in silicate glasses: Application to natural melt inclusions

2017

Sulfur is an important volatile element involved in magmatic systems. Its quantification in silicate glasses relies on state-of-the-art techniques such as electronprobe microanalyses (EPMA) or X-ray absorption spectroscopy but is often complicated by the fact that S dissolved in silicate glasses can adopt several oxidation states (S6+for sulfates or S2-for sulfides). In the present work, we use micro-Raman spectroscopy on a series of silicate glasses to quantify the S content. The database is constituted by 47 silicate glasses of various compositions (natural and synthetic) with S content ranging from 1179 to 13 180 ppm. Most of the investigated glasses have been synthesized at high pressur…

Calculations on solvents and co-solvents of single-wall carbon nanotubes: Cyclopyranoses

2005

Abstract (10,10) single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) presents consistency between relatively small solubility, and great partition coefficients and kinetic stability. Solubility of SWNTs is investigated in a variety of solvents, finding a class of non-hydrogen-bonding Lewis bases that provides good solubility. Electron affinity of d -glucopyranoses ( d -Glcpn) suggests colloids of negatively charged SWNTs in water.

Crystallinity of block copolymer controlled by cyclodextrin

2018

We report a differential scanning calorimetry study to investigate the effect of cyclodextrins (CD) on the crystallinity of a copolymer. Tetronics was selected as copolymer with star-like shape formed by four polyethylene oxide flanked by four polypropylene oxide blocks linked to ethylenediamine central group. The use of CD with different cavity size was exploited for a block selective inclusion. A model for supramolecular association was considered for a quantitative description of the enthalpy data. The polymer chain incorporation into the CD cavity generates a loss of crystallinity. The stoichiometry of the CD/copolymer aggregates can be tuned by changing the CD cavity size. The investig…

Abstract. Residual pressure can be preserved in mineral inclusions, e.g. quartz-in-garnet, after exhumation due to differential expansion between inclusion and host crystals. Raman spectroscopy has been applied to infer the residual pressure and provides information on the entrapment temperature and pressure conditions. However, the amount of residual pressure relaxation cannot be directly measured. An underestimation or overestimation of residual pressure may lead to significant errors between calculated and actual entrapment pressure. This study focuses on three mechanisms responsible for the residual pressure modification: (1) viscous creep; (2) plastic yield; (3) proximity of inclusion …

Two-component self-assembly with solvent leading to "wet" and microcrystalline organogel fibers

2014

Abstract Hypothesis The microcrystalline fibers of N -(2-aminoethyl)-3α-hydroxy-5β-cholan-24-amide 1 provided a useful model system for studying the complex relationship between morphology, experimental parameters, solvent, and the phenomenon of organogelation. The presence of solvents in the solid forms of 1 along with crystallization behavior suggested solvate formation and polymorphic behavior. Experiments Forty solid state- and xerogel samples of 1 formed in organic solvents and in three categories of experimental conditions were analyzed with single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Raman microscopy, and attenuated total reflection Fourier-transform infr…

Necessary Optimality Conditions in Multiobjective Dynamic Optimization

2004

We consider a nonsmooth multiobjective optimal control problem related to a general preference. Both differential inclusion and endpoint constraints are involved. Necessary conditions and Hamiltonian necessary conditions expressed in terms of the limiting Frechet subdifferential are developed. Examples of useful preferences are given.

Controllability and strong controllability of differential inclusions

2012

Abstract In this paper, we prove sufficient conditions for controllability and strong controllability in terms of the Mordukhovich subdifferential for two classes of differential inclusions. The first one is the class of sub-Lipschitz multivalued functions introduced by Loewen–Rockafellar (1994) [10] . The second one, introduced recently by Clarke (2005) [18] , is the class of multivalued functions which are pseudo-Lipschitz and satisfy the so-called tempered growth condition. To do this, we establish an error bound result in terms of the Mordukhovich subdifferential outside Asplund spaces.

Harmonic Balance Method and Stability of Discontinuous Systems

2019

The development of the theory of discontinuous dynamical systems and differential inclusions was not only due to research in the field of abstract mathematics but also a result of studies of particular problems in mechanics. One of the first methods, used for the analysis of dynamics in discontinuous mechanical systems, was the harmonic balance method developed in the thirties of the twentieth century. In our work, the results of analysis obtained by the method of harmonic balance, which is an approximate method, are compared with the results obtained by rigorous mathematical methods and numerical simulation.
