The dense flow of air bubbles in a two-dimensional silo (through an aperture D) filled with a liquid is studied experimentally. A particle tracking technique has been used to bring out the main properties of the flow: displacements of the bubbles, transverse, and axial velocities. The behavior of the air bubbles is observed to present similarities with nondeformable solid grains in a granular flow. Nevertheless, a correlation between the bubble velocities and their deformations has been evidenced. Moreover, a new discharge law (Beverloo like) must be considered for such a system, where the flow rate is observed to vary as D-1/2 and depends on the deformability of the particles. [less ▲]

This paper presents the sintering behaviour of a La0.9Sr0.1Ga0.8Mg0.2O2.85 coral-like microstructure powder. This is prepared by a successive freeze-drying and self-ignition process followed by calcination at 1200 ◦C during 1 h. This synthesis method gives great uniformity of the powder and allows shaping into compacts without requiring a grinding step. The grain size distribution (between 0.5 and 4 m) favours a good sintering behaviour: open porosity disappear at 1400 ◦C and relative densities over 99% can be achieved after 6 h at 1450 ◦C. The same powder can also be sintered into a thin disc of ∼100 mthickness. The characterization of the dense material by impedance spectroscopy shows that the activation energies below and above 600 ◦C are 1.0 eV and 0.7 eV, respectively. The conductivity at 800 ◦C is ∼0.11 S cm−1. Special attention is devoted to the temperature range between 200 ◦C and 400 ◦C, where the intragrain and intergrain contributions can be distinguished. The analysis of the parameters describing the intragrain constant phase element in the equivalent circuit suggests that, above 325 ◦C, the system evolves from a distribution of relaxation time to only one relaxation time. The analysis of the data by the complexes permittivity show that ionic oxide conduction mechanism would occur in two steps. In the first, an oxygen vacancy would be released and, in the second, the migration of the ionic oxide would take place in the material. [less ▲]

In the course of the autumn 1986, the pond of Virelles (Hainaut, Belgium) has been dried out. Unionid mussels (Anodonta cygnea and A. piscinalis) were then sampled on a total area of 1,408 m² (about 0.2% of the pond area). We estimated their density was nearly 875 ind./ha and their biomass 204 kg fresh weight/ha. The length frequency distribution of the mussels is quite surprising since the larger individuals are the most numerous. We think this situation is derived from a higher predation rate on small individuals. Musk rats (Ondatra zibethicus) and large carps (Cyprinus carpio, mean weigth 5.5 kg; mean biomass 86 kg/ha) probably enconnter less difficulties in handling the smaller mussels than the larger ones.

Most of the salicin present in willow stem bark occurs as labile glycosides (e.g. salicin, salicortin, 2-O'-acetylsalicortin, 3-O'-acetylsalicortin, tremulacin and fragilin). On alkaline hydrolysis, these acylated derivatives decompose to salicin; in this way, the total amount of salicin can be determined. A HPTLC method has been developed for the quantitative determination of salicin in stem bark before and after alkaline hydrolysis. The mobile phase used for the separation is a modification of one described in the literature. a double or triple migration is necessary to separate salicin from other components of the extract. The results have been compared with those obtained after bidimensional chromatography using two phases described for the quantitative evaluation of salicin. to check that separation was complete, the spectrum of salicin obtained from willow extracts was superimposed on that of a salicin standard.Quantification was performed at lambda = 270nm, the wavelenght of maximum absorption in the IV spectrum of salicin.

As no satisfactory method existed for the separation of gentiopicroside from other components of gentian roots, we have decided to undertake some experiments.In this communication, we report the use of a novel mobile phase and a different detection system. Our HPTLC method is a fast and reliable procedure which may be used for quantification of gentiopicroside in roots and extracts of Gentiana lutea, whether for routine analysis or for studying stability. The TLC method is also compared with an HPLC method. [less ▲]

Spiraeoside (quercetin-4'-glucoside) is the major and most caharacteristic flavonoid of Filipendula ulmaria flowers and is not found in the leaves and stems. This paper describes a quantification of spiraeoside by HPTLC densitometry after derivatization with diphenylboric acid -2-aminoester. The fluorescence of this flavonoid was measured at 330 nm. the spiraeoside content in batches of Filipendula ulmaria flowers ranged from 3 to 4.3 %. It is of note that these results are similar to those published elsewhere after HPLC analysis of other batches. [less ▲]

A quantitative, densitometric, thin layer chromatographic method has been developed for the determination of three clinically important monosaccharides in ureine, after desalting.The analysis of these monosaccharides in urine allows to observe the potential changes induced by antiinflammatories in human small intestine permeability. Xylose, 3-O-methylglucose and rhamnose were estimated quantitatively in urine; arabinose was used as internal standard. The densitometry was performed at a wavelenght of 400 nm after a visualization reaction on HPTLC plates. In all cases, coefficients of variation of the method were less than 2.7%. [less ▲]

Additive manufacturing (AM) techniques offer the possibility to build complex geometries with integrated functionalities. Three-dimensional (3D) printing of metallic powder is probably the only AM technique that can build controlled porosity sintered parts, such as filter elements and fluid permeable components. Many building and sintering parameters can be set to adjust porous properties of the final part. The effects of particle size, paricul shape, sintering temperature and sintering time on the final properties of the sinteres parts have been analysed. Correlations have been established between these properties and process parameters [less ▲]

Density functional theory has been used to study the electronic spin-state properties of low-spin Fe[HB(PZ)(3)](2), lhigh-spin Fe[HB(3-MePZ)(3)](2), high-spin Fe[HB(3,5-Me(2)PZ)(3)](2), and high-spin Fe[HB(3,4,5-Me(3)PZ)(3)](2) complexes that exhibit very different iron(II) electronic spin-sate crossover behaviors with changing temperature and pressure. Excellent agreement is obtained between the experimentally,observed Mossbauer-effect quadrupole splittings and isomer shifts of these complexes and those calculated with the B3LYP functional and various different basis sets for both the high-spin and low-spin states of iron(II). The calculations for Fe[HB(PZ)(3)](2) that use the LANL2DZ, 6-31++G(d,p), and 6-311++G(d,p) basis sets for iron all lead to very similar electric field gradients and thus quadrupole splittings. The initial calculations, which were based upon the known X-ray structures, were followed by structural optimization, an optimization that led to small increases in the Fe-N bond distances. Optimization led to at most trivial changes in the intraligand bond distances and angles. The importance of the 3-methy I-H center dot center dot center dot H-3-methyl nonbonded intramolecular interligand interactions in controlling the minimum Fe-N bond distances and determining the iron(II) spin state both in Fe[HB(3-Mepz)(3)](2) and in the related methyl-substituted complexes has been identified.

The degeneracy of two-phase disordered microstructures consistent with a specified correlation function is analyzed by mapping it to a ground-state degeneracy. We determine for the first time the associated density of states via a Monte Carlo algorithm. Our results are described in terms of the roughness of the energy landscape, defined on a hypercubic configuration space. The use of a Hamming distance in this space enables us to define a roughness metric, which is calculated from the correlation function alone and related quantitatively to the structural degeneracy. This relation is validated for a wide variety of disordered systems. [less ▲]

Two strains of Tribolium castaneum, one being susceptible to malathion (Asm) and the other malathion-specific resistant (PRm), were used to assess the effect of population density and its interaction with genetic background in reproductive success. A highly significant allometric relationship between female body weight and fecundity (R2=0.413) and another between female body weight and larval survivorship (R2=0.561) were found. Data showed that population density exerted an indirect effect on the reproductive success. The body weight of the Asm female was not affected by variations in population density but the body weight of the PRm female increased with reduced population density. The genetic background (strain) and/or malathion-specific resistance greatly influenced reproductive success. Concerning the percentage survivorship of offspring of the two strains, there was an opposite trend with increased population density: in PRm, survivorship was lower at high density (76.64±13.75; mean±SD) and higher at low density (88.39±7.61), whereas in Asm, survivorship was higher at high density (53.39±15.57) and lower at low density (43.99±20.08). The PRm female laid more eggs than the Asm. Reproductive success was significantly higher in PRm than in Asm. In addition, the genetic background (the strain) and/or the pleiotropic effect of malathion-specific resistance had a significant effect on the fecundity of PRm because the differences in fecundity and reproductive success between Asm and PRm went beyond the body weight of the female and might be explained by their genetic background and/or the pleiotropic effect of malathion-specific resistance.
