    Hexapole magnet system for thermal energy 3He atom manipulation (2001)

    Notes: We present design and construction details for a novel high field, small bore permanent hexapole magnet. The design is intended for focusing atomic beams of 3He at thermal energies. The magnet uses an optimized polepiece design which includes vacuum gaps to enable its use with high intensity atomic and molecular beams. The 0.3 m long, 1 mm internal radius magnet achieves a polepiece tip field of 1.1 T using NdFeB permanent magnets and Permendur 49 polepieces. The polepiece shanks are designed to saturate so that the hexapole properties are determined predominantly by the shape of the polepiece tip. The performance of the hexapole assembly is demonstrated with an 8 meV 3He beam in the beam source of the Cambridge spin echo spectrometer and the measured focused beam results show excellent agreement with theoretical predictions and negligible beam attenuation. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Low-cost calorimeter for simulating shape memory effect heat engines (1988)

    Notes: A novel, inexpensive calorimetry system is described for the analysis of the specific heat anomalies of shape memory effect (SME) alloys cycled through the martensitic transformation. By loading the sample on heating through the martensitic to austenitic transformation and unloading on cooling through the reverse transformation, a typical SME heat engine cycle is simulated. Analysis of the specific-heat anomalies from these simulations gives a direct measure of the thermal efficiencies of the SME alloy. The requirements of externally stressing the sample as well as a changing sample shape produced heat losses which were difficult to estimate. An algorithm is described which estimates the combined heat losses by thermal base-line subtraction. Measurements of the specific heats and enthalpies of transformation for heating and cooling through the transformations are presented, from which the thermal efficiencies were calculated.

    Case reports Cardiopulmonary complications during anaesthesia and surgery for severe thoracic lordoscoliosis (1995)

    Notes: A 15-year-old girl underwent a posterior spinal fusion procedure for severe lordoscoliosis. On turning to the prone position acute posture-related upper airway obstruction occurred. During surgery, manipulation of the spine caused several episodes of loss of cardiac output. Retrospective assessment of the pre-operative chest X rays demonstrated approximation of the sternum and thoracic vertebrae, with evidence of tracheal narrowing at the level of the thoracic inlet. We feel that both complications were directly related to the severity of the lordoscoliosis and that careful pre-operative clinical, spirometric and X ray assessment should be undertaken in such patients.

    Contralateral pneumothorax following thoracotomy for vertebrectomy (1996)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: A 21-year-old woman underwent correction of congenital thoracic kyphoscoliosis. The procedure was completed in two stages. The first stage involved right thoracotomy and anterior vertebrectomy. Following positional obstruction of her right-sided chest drain she developed a very large, left-sided pneumothorax in the immediate postoperative period. No attempt at central venous line placement had been made on the left side. Breach of the midline at vertebrectomy may allow pleural gas to cross and cause a contralateral pneumothorax.

    Harnessing the therapeutic potential of atrial natriuretic peptide (1989)

    Notes: Summary The biological actions of Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) make it potentially useful in the treatment of hypertension and heart failure. We review here the physiology of ANP, the effects of infusion in heart failure and hypertension and preliminary data suggesting that inhibition of endopeptidase 24.11, the enzyme degrading ANP, is an effective mechanism of raising circulating levels of endogenous ANP. Due to the rate of progress in this field we have restricted ourselves to recent work much of which is still available only in abstract form. For more complete accounts the reader is referred to recent reviews [9, 11, 14].

    Calorimetric techniques for the evaluation of thermal efficiencies of shape memory alloys (1989)

    Notes: Abstract The latent heat and entropy changes of NiTi shape memory effect (SME) alloys have been evaluated by three different calorimetric techniques; adiabatic calorimetry, differential scanning calorimetry and a Clapeyron analysis of isothermal stress-strain data. It is found that these techniques provide consistent estimates for the enthalpy and entropy to within 20% for NiTi and noble metal SME alloys. From published thermodynamic data for SME alloys, thermal efficiencies were calculated based on an ideal SME heat engine cycle. It was found that NiTi provides the maximum thermal efficiency with the highest temperature transformation range.

    Notes: Abstract The latent heats and thermal efficiency of a NiTi helix as the driving element of a Shape Memory Effect (SME) heat engine was measured by an adiabatic calorimeter capable of simulating a heat engine cycle. The latent heat measurements were found to be highly variable. Thermal efficiencies between 2.6 and 4.5% were measured in the limit of low external stresses needed for reproducible cycling behaviour.

    Effects of cooling rate on the shape memory effect thermodynamics of NiTi (1988)

    Notes: Abstract The cooling rate of near-stoichiometric NiTi after annealing at 500° C is shown to have dramatic effects on the transformation thermodynamics. The slower the rate of cooling, the higher the transformation temperatures with less rhombohedral phase (R-phase) observed in room-temperature X-ray diffraction spectra. Given that this effect is due to the amount of time spent at intermediate temperatures, i.e an ageing effect, calorimetric analysis of specimens aged at 400 or 450° C revealed progressively higher transformation temperatures and latent heats with ageing. These observations are associated with the evolution of a secondary firstorder transformation to the R-phase. Analysis of stress-strain data of near-stoichiometric NiTi helices, water quenched from its secondary anneal at 500° C, indicated that a Carnot efficiency of 16% can be expected, compared with 13.5% for the same material when furnace cooled.
