Utjecaj usitnjavanja zrna i modifikacije eutektičke faze na stezanje pri skrućivanju AlSi9Cu3 legure
Paper describes influence of grain refining and of modification on feeding behavior of Al – alloys. Research was made with the AlSi9Cu3 alloy. Three samples of basic, grain refined, and modified alloy were cast by the newly developed method for determining susceptibility to shrinkage and into the Quick cup measuring cells for simple thermal analyses which were simultaneously done with all these samples. Castings were then analyzed with X-raying, density measurements, visually observed and metallographically examined. Also grain size was determined with light microscopy and polarized light.Ovaj rad opisuje utjecaj dodatka cjepiva i modifikatora na ponašanje napajanja Al-legura. Istraživanja su
provedena na AlSi9Cu3 leguri. Tri su uzorka, iz osnovne legure, cijepljene i modificirane, lijevana u „Quick Cup“ mjerne ćelije primjenom novo razvijene metode za određivanje osjetljivosti na stezanje pri skrućivanju. Jednostavna toplinska analiza provedena je simultano u sva tri uzorka. Odljevci su potom ispitani određivanjem gustoće, vizualnom kontrolom i metalografskom analizom. Također, veličina zrna je određena optičkom mikroskopijom u polariziranom svjetlu
Portraits of Complex Networks
We propose a method for characterizing large complex networks by introducing
a new matrix structure, unique for a given network, which encodes structural
information; provides useful visualization, even for very large networks; and
allows for rigorous statistical comparison between networks. Dynamic processes
such as percolation can be visualized using animations. Applications to graph
theory are discussed, as are generalizations to weighted networks, real-world
network similarity testing, and applicability to the graph isomorphism problem.Comment: 6 pages, 9 figure
"Clumpiness" Mixing in Complex Networks
Three measures of clumpiness of complex networks are introduced. The measures
quantify how most central nodes of a network are clumped together. The
assortativity coefficient defined in a previous study measures a similar
characteristic, but accounts only for the clumpiness of the central nodes that
are directly connected to each other. The clumpiness coefficient defined in the
present paper also takes into account the cases where central nodes are
separated by a few links. The definition is based on the node degrees and the
distances between pairs of nodes. The clumpiness coefficient together with the
assortativity coefficient can define four classes of network. Numerical
calculations demonstrate that the classification scheme successfully
categorizes 30 real-world networks into the four classes: clumped assortative,
clumped disassortative, loose assortative and loose disassortative networks.
The clumpiness coefficient also differentiates the Erdos-Renyi model from the
Barabasi-Albert model, which the assortativity coefficient could not
differentiate. In addition, the bounds of the clumpiness coefficient as well as
the relationships between the three measures of clumpiness are discussed.Comment: 47 pages, 11 figure

A network-specific approach to percolation in networks with bidirectional links
Methods for determining the percolation threshold usually study the behavior
of network ensembles and are often restricted to a particular type of
probabilistic node/link removal strategy. We propose a network-specific method
to determine the connectivity of nodes below the percolation threshold and
offer an estimate to the percolation threshold in networks with bidirectional
links. Our analysis does not require the assumption that a network belongs to a
specific ensemble and can at the same time easily handle arbitrary removal
strategies (previously an open problem for undirected networks). In validating
our analysis, we find that it predicts the effects of many known complex
structures (e.g., degree correlations) and may be used to study both
probabilistic and deterministic attacks.Comment: 6 pages, 8 figure
Measurement of the Branching Fraction of the Decay in Fully Reconstructed Events at Belle
We present an analysis of the exclusive
decay, where represents an
electron or a muon, with the assumption of charge-conjugation symmetry and
lepton universality. The analysis uses the full data sample
collected by the Belle detector, corresponding to 711 fb of integrated
luminosity. We select the events by fully reconstructing one meson in
hadronic decay modes, subsequently determining the properties of the other
meson. We extract the signal yields using a binned maximum-likelihood fit to
the missing-mass squared distribution in bins of the invariant mass of the two
pions or the momentum transfer squared. We measure a total branching fraction
of , where the
uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. This result is the
first reported measurement of this decay.Comment: 23 pages, 19 figure
Search for violation in the decay at Belle
We search for violation in the charged charm meson decay
, based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated
luminosity of collected by the Belle experiment at the KEKB
asymmetric-energy collider. The measured violating asymmetry
is , which is consistent with
the standard model prediction and has a significantly improved precision
compared to previous results.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figure
