    Notes: Viewing the brittle-to-ductile transition of fracture in intrinsically brittle solids as a crack tip initiated critical event of either nucleation of dislocation loops from the crack tip or the motion away of such dislocations from the crack tip, experiments have been devised to measure the critical activation energy of such events by measuring the arrest temperature of cleavage cracks with different velocities in experiments that were conducted on large Si single crystals subjected to a steep temperature gradient. While such experiments can provide precise information that can be related directly to mechanisms of crack tip bifurcation behavior, they are hampered by nontrivial perturbations that must be controlled. Here in the first of a series of communications we discuss the nature of these perturbations in Si single crystals, cleaving either on the {111} or the {110} planes.

    Notes: The wake of a circular cylinder is investigated for Reynolds numbers between 160 and 500 by means of particle image velocimetry (PIV). For the first time cross-stream velocity fields are determined for two classes of secondary vortices (A-mode and B-mode). The circulation of the A-mode secondary vortices in this plane is approximately twice the circulation of the B-mode secondary vortices. The spanwise wavelength of the secondary vortices is four to five cylinder diameters for the A-mode and one diameter for the B-mode. The spatio-temporal development of the wake is analyzed by acquiring a time sequence of PIV images covering several Kármán periods. On the basis of the vorticity field, the A- and B-modes can be identified as topologically different vortex structures. Two vortex models are developed to explain the differences between these modes. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The von Kármán vortex street behind a circular cylinder in a laminar homogeneous jet core is experimentally investigated. The Strouhal–Reynolds number relationships are measured for various shear-layer thicknesses and aspect ratios. The experimental Strouhal number values are found to collapse with the discrete vortex shedding modes, which were observed for boundary-layer end conditions. The results indicate that the shedding modes are independent from the end conditions, but are an intrinsic feature of the shedding process of an infinitely long cylinder. The experimentally assumed shedding mode, however, is strongly dependent of the geometric parameters, like the shear-layer thickness and the aspect ratio. The observed tendencies can be made physically plausible.

    Notes: Abstract The microstructure of different Fe-Cr-Al alloys in the composition range of 0 to 18 at % Cr and 7 to 25 at % Al was investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). By systematically varying the compositions, the location of the order-disorder transition was determined. Dark field images confirmed that many samples consisted of a two-phase mixture of small DO3-ordered particles in a disordered A2 matrix. The mottled contrast exhibited by some samples and sometimes taken as a proof of the existence of ordered particles is shown to be produced by an artefact due to the TEM sample preparation.
