Dynamic mechanical analysis of fiber reinforced composites
Dynamic mechanical and thermal properties were determined for unidirectional epoxy/glass composites at various fiber orientation angles. Resonant frequency and relative logarithmic decrement were measured as functions of temperature. In low angle and longitudinal specimens a transition was observed above the resin glass transition temperature which was manifested mechanically as an additional damping peak and thermally as a change in the coefficient of thermal expansion. The new transition was attributed to a heterogeneous resin matrix induced by the fiber. The temperature span of the glass-rubber relaxation was found to broaden with decreasing orientation angle, reflecting the growth of fiber contribution and exhibiting behavior similar to that of Young's modulus. The change in resonant frequency through the glass transition was greatest for samples of intermediate fiber angle, demonstrating behavior similar to that of the longitudinal shear modulus
Birman-Schwinger and the number of Andreev states in BCS superconductors
The number of bound states due to inhomogeneities in a BCS superconductor is
usually established either by variational means or via exact solutions of
particularly simple, symmetric perturbations. Here we propose estimating the
number of sub-gap states using the Birman-Schwinger principle. We show how to
obtain upper bounds on the number of sub-gap states for small normal regions
and derive a suitable Cwikel-Lieb-Rozenblum inequality. We also estimate the
number of such states for large normal regions using high dimensional
generalizations of the Szego theorem. The method works equally well for local
inhomogeneities of the order parameter and for external potentials.Comment: Final version to appear in Phys Rev
