Manufacture of fiber-epoxy test specimens: Including associated jigs and instrumentation
Experimental work on the manufacture and strength of graphite-epoxy composites is considered. The correct data and thus a true assessment of the strength properties based on a proper and scientifically modeled test specimen with engineered design, construction, and manufacture has led to claims of a very broad spread in optimized values. Such behavior is in the main due to inadequate control during manufacture of test specimen, improper curing, and uneven scatter in the fiber orientation. The graphite fibers are strong but brittle. Even with various epoxy matrices and volume fraction, the fracture toughness is still relatively low. Graphite-epoxy prepreg tape was investigated as a sandwich construction with intermittent interlaminar bonding between the laminates in order to produce high strength, high fracture toughness composites. The quality and control of manufacture of the multilaminate test specimen blanks was emphasized. The dimensions, orientation and cure must be meticulous in order to produce the desired mix

Annihilation Diagrams in Two-Body Nonleptonic Decays of Charmed Mesons
In the pole-dominance model for the two-body nonleptonic decays of charmed
mesons and , it is shown that the
contributions of the intermediate pseudoscalar and the axial-vector meson poles
cancel each other in the annihilation diagrams in the chiral limit. In the same
limit, the annihilation diagrams for the decays vanish
independently.Comment: 9 pages (+ 3 figures available upon request), UR-1316, ER-40685-766,
