Scattering by a network of prolate, cross-section-polydispersed cylinders applicable to fibrillar thermoreversible gels
نویسنده
چکیده
The intensity scattered by a network of cross~section-polydispersed cylinders in which the mesh size is far larger than the largest cross-sectional radius is calculated by considering a weight distribution function of the type w(r) +~ r~~ with two cut-off radii,

Structural and rheological properties of aqueous viscoelastic solutions and gels of tripodal cholamide-based self-assembled supramolecules.
A tripodal cholic steroid ( TCS+) derivative forms hydrogels in acidic conditions that are studied by the small-angle neutron scattering and rheometry techniques. The self-assembled systems exhibit particular scattering and flow properties unusual in the class of molecular gels. The scattering data show separated form- and structure-factor features with, respectively, a low-Q correlation peak a...
متن کاملMicrowave Scattering Models for Cylindrical Vegetation Components
This work is intended to investigate the accuracy of modelling simple cylindrical vegetation structures for microwave remote sensing applications. Plane wave scattering by dielectric cylinders of finite length and circular cross section is examined. Cylinders with a radius that varies linearly along the cylinder length — hereafter referred to as tapered cylinders — are also considered. Exact ex...
متن کاملSea Surfaces Scattering by Multi-Order Small-Slope Approximation: a Monte-Carlo and Analytical Comparison
L-band electromagnetic scattering from two-dimensional random rough sea surfaces are calculated by first- and second-order Small-Slope Approximation (SSA1, 2) methods. Both analytical and numerical computations are utilized to calculate incoherent normalized radar cross-section (NRCS) in mono- and bi-static cases. For evaluating inverse Fourier transform, inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) i...

Monolithic aerogels of high molecular weight polyethylene (Mw= 3x106- 6x106 g/mol) have been prepared by solvent extraction with supercritical carbon dioxide from thermoreversible gels prepared in decalin. These low density and highly porous aerogels present an apparent porosity up to 90%. The aerogel morphology observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is characterized by spherulitic stru...
متن کاملScattering of non-uniform incident fields by long cylinders
We investigate experimentally far-field scattering from cylinders with illumination non-uniform along the axis of the cylinder. Scattered intensity as a function of angle in two orthogonal directions is examined. Variation along the scattering angle is found to be little affected by the illumination profile. However, variation in the transverse direction follows closely the Fourier transform of...
