Combustor liner construction

A combustor liner is fabricated from a plurality of individual segments each containing counter/parallel Finwall material and are arranged circumferentially and axially to define the combustion zone. Each segment is supported by a hook and ring construction to an opened lattice frame with sufficient tolerance between the hook and ring to permit thermal expansion with a minimum of induced stresses

Crossover from a square to a hexagonal pattern in Faraday surface waves

We report on surface wave pattern formation in a Faraday experiment operated at a very shallow filling level, where modes with a subharmonic and harmonic time dependence interact. Associated with this distinct temporal behavior are different pattern selection mechanisms, favoring squares or hexagons, respectively. In a series of bifurcations running through a pair of superlattices the surface wave pattern transforms between the two incompatible symmetries. The close analogy to 2D and 3D crystallography is pointed out.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure

Assessment of mapping exposed ferrous and ferric iron compounds using Skylab-EREP data

The author has identified the following significant results. The S190B color photography is as useful as LANDSAT data for the mapping of color differences in the rocks and soils of the terrain. An S192 ratio of 0.79 - 0.89 and 0.93 - 1.05 micron bands produced an apparently successful delineation of ferrous, ferric, and other materials, in agreement with theory and ratio code studies. From an analysis of S191 data, basalt and dacite were separated on the basis of differences in spectral emissivity in the 8.3 - 12 micron region

True and False Foodplants of \u3ci\u3eCallosamia Promethea\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae) in Southern Michigan

A survey in 1980 of the associations of over 400 cocoons of Callosamia promethea Drury in vegetation along and adjacent to southern Michigan roadsides gave evidence for seven species of true larval foodplants (not including two others known in the area from other studies) and 17 species of false foodplants, the latter determined by the (1) rarity of their association with cocoons, (2) only one or two cocoons per plant, and (3) their proximity to a well known true foodplant. Three species, sassafras, black cherry, and buttonbush, are evidently the most important true foodplants in this area. Comparisons are made of the foodplants in terms of past literature, geography, and taxonomic relationships

Phase relaxation of Faraday surface waves

Surface waves on a liquid air interface excited by a vertical vibration of a fluid layer (Faraday waves) are employed to investigate the phase relaxation of ideally ordered patterns. By means of a combined frequency-amplitude modulation of the excitation signal a periodic expansion and dilatation of a square wave pattern is generated, the dynamics of which is well described by a Debye relaxator. By comparison with the results of a linear theory it is shown that this practice allows a precise measurement of the phase diffusion constant.Comment: 5 figure
