    Notes: The dynamic behavior of the solution polymerization of styrene in a continuous stirred tank reactor is analyzed with a mixture of tert-butyl perbenzoate and benzoyl peroxide as an initiator system. In the modeling of the reactor, a viscosity dependent reactor wall heat transfer coefficient is used to account for the changing heat transfer efficiency as monomer conversion and polymer molecular weight increase. The steady state and bifurcation behaviors have been investigated with the reactor residence time, initiator feed composition, initiator concentration, feed solvent volume fraction, and coolant temperature as bifurcation parameters. Unlike the reactors with constant heat transfer coefficient, the present system exhibits relatively simple steady state and dynamic bifurcation behaviors. Oscillatory behavior is observed only when the solvent volume fraction in the feed exceeds 0.2. The dynamic simulation of the reactor also indicates that a feedback temperature controller may fail to maintain the reactor temperature when the heat transfer coefficient changes as a result of process disturbances.

    Notes: The ontogeny of various middle-ear structures was examined in 11 groups of chicks between 10 days embryonic and adult. Measurements of the tympanic membrane surface area and height, columella length, and that of the columella footplate, annular ligament, and oval window area were obtained using video micrographs and computer digitization techniques. The oval window matures first at 53 days post-hatching, whereas the columella achieves adult size at 74 days. The tympanic membrane surface area is the last middle-ear variable studied to reach adult size (79 days post-hatch). The columella increases its length from 0.63 mm (10 days embryonic) to 2.73 mm in the adult. The tympanic membrane area expands by 280% whereas the columellar footplate area increases by 11x. As a result, the pressure amplification of the middle ear due to the tympanic membrane/columellar footplate area ratio improves by over 400%. These data further contribute to our understanding of the functional development of the middle ear. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Resin flow and fiber spreading during the prepregging process were investigated experimentally using a scale-down version of a commercial hot-melt prepregger with bismaleimides and carbon fibers as model systems. Specifically, several dimensionless parameters such as the Prepreg Flow Number, fractional resin uptake, resin distribution function, fractional width change, and prepregging efficiency were defined to characterize the prepregging process as well as the quality of the prepreg. Fiber spreading during the prepregging process was observed to be a viscoelastic phenomenon depending on the impregnation temperature. For resin impregnation into collimated fiber tows, all the experimental data points obtained at different operating conditions were superimposed onto a single line showing a temperature-pressure-velocity superposition for the prepregging process as predicted by the definition of the Prepreg Flow Number (PFN). Finally, three fundamental steps of the prepregging process were identified and confirmed with cross-sectional micrographs of unaged prepregs produced at different temperatures.

    Coupling of optical and mechanical properties in crystalline polymers (1979)

    Notes: The modules and birefringence of oriented polymers are known to couple through the structural and intrinsic properties of the polymer. Recent developments in both optical and mechanical theories have allowed this coupling to be expanded so that it includes predictions of modulus and refractive indices of uniaxially-oriented polymer films at various angles to the draw direction. The validity of these theories has been tested in this study by predicting the angular dependence of the optical and mechanical properties of seven uniaxiallyoriented films of isotactic polypropylene. The present study also provides intrinsic material properties associated with the crystalline and noncrystalline components of the polymer, and consequently allows the identification of the structural parameters that control the properties of ultra-high oriented isotactic polypropylene.

    Optimal determination of the vapor pressure critical exponent (1978)

    Notes: Correlations producing thermodynamic property tables employ the concepts of scaling with increasing frequency in the vapor-liquid critical region. One of the important concepts is that the vapor pressure equation should provide infinite curvature and finite slope ψc at the critical point. The vapor pressure critical exponent θ describes the divergent curvature in a power law expression.This paper provides an extensive study of θ. We have determined an optimal value of θ by two general approaches: a curve fit method (CFM) which employs least-squares analyses, and a numerical derivative method (NDM). The CFM is interpolative but requires a vapor pressure equation, while the NDM is extrapolative but is independent of the vapor pressure equation.The vapor pressure equations, which satisfy scaling concepts most closely, exhibit a very flat minima for the CFM. As a result, the values of θ which provide reasonable correlations vary over an appreciable range (depending upon the compound, form of the equation, and the temperature range). The NDM did not present any particular difficulties. Our overall weighted average for θ is 0.199 with a standard deviation of 0.052, while the overall numerical average was 0.225 with a standard deviation of 0.045; the final recommended value of θ is 0.22 ± 0.04.

    Effect of serum on the growth of balb 3T3 A31 mouse fibroblasts and an SV40-transformed derivative (1976)

    Notes: The effect of serum on the growth properties of non-transformed Balb 3T3 A31 and SV40-transformed Balb 3T3 A31 was studied. The concentration of serum in the growth medium of non-transformed cells had little effect on the initial population doubling time, but did regulate the cell density at which the population became quiescent in G1. The doubling time of transformed cells, however, was increased significantly as the concentration of serum was decreased below 4%. This effect on the growth of transformed cells was seen at serum concentrations so low that non-transformed cells did not complete one population doubling. Flow microfluorometric analysis of these populations indicated that the primary effect of different serum concentrations on the non-transformed cells was to modulate the average residence time in G1; whereas, all the cell cycle phases of the transformed cells were affected by serum. At saturation densities, the non-transformed cells became quiescent in G1, but the transformed cells still traversed the cell cycle and their saturation density appeared to be a balance between cell production and cell death occurring primarily in the G1 phase of the cell cycle.

    Stimulation of WI-38 cell cycle transit: Effect of serum concentration and cell density (1976)
    New York, NY [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: Flow microfluorometry has been used to characterize the effects of serum concentration and cell density on the initiation of cell cycle transit of stationary phase (G0) human diploid fibroblasts (strain WI-38). The concentration of serum used to stimulate these cultures had no effect on the time cells began appearing in S (the DNA synthetic period), nor on the synchrony with which they moved around the cell cycle. However, as the serum concentration increased, the fraction of the stationary phase population released from G0 increased. Cell density modulated the ability of serum to stimulate cell cycle traverse. For example, at a cell density of 1.81 × 104 cells/cm2, 78% of the population was sensitive to serum stimulation; whereas, when the density was increased to 7.25 × 104 cells/cm2, only 27% of the population could be stimulated. This effect of cell density on the serum response is not simply the result of changing the ratio of serum concentration to cell density, but appears to reflect a true modulation of the population's sensitivity to serum stimulation. These results are consistent with the interpretation that the primary action of serum is to determine the transition of cells from a non-cycling G0 state to a cycling state and that cell density determines the proportion of the population capable of undergoing this transition.
