Exploratory Thermal-mechanical Fatigue Results for Rene' 80 in Ultrahigh Vacuum

A limited study was conducted of the use of strainage partitioning for predicting the thermalmechanical fatigue life of cast nickel-base superalloy Rene' 80. The fatigue lives obtained by combined inphase thermal and mechanical strain cycling between 400 C (752 F) and 1000 C (1802 F) in an ultrahigh vacuum were considerably shorter than those represented by the four basic partitioned inelastic strainrange fatigue life relationships established previously for this alloy at 871 C (1600 F) and 1000 C (1832 F) in an ultrahigh vacuum. This behavior was attributed to the drastic decrease in ductility with decreasing temperature for this alloy. These results indicated that the prediction of the thermal-mechanical fatigue life of Rene' 80 by the method of strainrange partioning may be improved if based on the four basic fatigue life relationships determined at a lower temperature in the thermal-mechanical strain cycle

Ferromagnetic Mass Localization in Check Point Configuration Using a Levenberg Marquardt Algorithm

A detection and tracking algorithm for ferromagnetic objects based on a two stage Levenberg Marquardt Algorithm (LMA) is presented. The procedure is applied to localization and magnetic moment estimation of ferromagnetic objects moving in the vicinity of an array of two to four 3-axis magnetometers arranged as a check point configuration. The algorithms first stage provides an estimation of the target trajectory and moment that are further refined using a second iteration where only the position vector is taken as unknown. The whole procedure is fast enough to provide satisfactory results within a few seconds after the target has been detected. Tests were conducted in Soreq NRC assessing various check point scenarios and targets. The results obtained from this experiment show good localization performance and good convivial with “noisy” environment. Small targets can be localized with good accuracy using either a vertical “doorway” two to four sensors configuration or ground level two to four sensors configuration. The calculated trajectory was not affected by nearby magnetic interference such as moving vehicles or a combat soldier inspecting the gateway

Bulk-sensitive Photoemission of Mn5Si3

We have carried out a bulk-sensitive high-resolution photoemission experiment on Mn5Si3. The measurements are performed for both core level and valence band states. The Mn core level spectra are deconvoluted into two components corresponding to different crystallographic sites. The asymmetry of each component is of noticeable magnitude. In contrast, the Si 2p spectrum shows a simple Lorentzian shape with low asymmetry. The peaks of the valence band spectrum correspond well to the peak positions predicted by the former band calculation.Comment: To be published in: Solid State Communication
