Elastic and Acoustic Properties of Heavy Rare-Earth Metals

چکیده
In this paper, ultrasonic properties like ultrasonic attenuation, sound velocities, acoustic coupling constants and thermal relaxation time have been studied in hexagonal structured metals Gadolinium (Gd), Terbium (Tb), Dysprosium (Dy), Holmium (Ho), Erbium (Er) and Thulium (Tm) along unique axis at room temperature. For the evaluations of ultrasonic properties, secondand thirdorder elastic constants have been computed also. The peculiar behavior of these metals is found at 55° due their least thermal relaxation time and highest Debye average velocity. Dy is more ductile, stable, perfect metal in comparison to other chosen metals due to its lowest value of attenuation. So we predict that Dy is most suitable lanthanide metals for material science and engineering.

This work is a study of the Earths free oscillations considering a merge of solid and liquid model. At the turn of 19th century Geophysicists presented the theory of the free oscillations for a self-gravitating, isotropic and compressible sphere. Assuming a steel structure for an Earth size sphere, they predicted a period of oscillation of about 1 hour. About 50 years later, the free oscillat...
متن کاملIsolation and molecular characterization of bacteria to heavy metals isolated from soil samples in Bokaro Coal Mines, India
In recent years, environmental pollution by coal mining is a long-established human activity affecting all levels of life with various environmental impacts by generating heavy metals. The presence of heavy metals even in trace amount is toxic and detrimental to all living organisms. The coal mine area in Bokaro is one of the “Toxic Hotspot” in India. Bacteria have evolved uptake and efflux mec...
متن کاملHeavy metal concentration of soils affected by Zn-smelter activities in the Qeshm Island, Iran
In this study, concentrations of heavy metals in soils around a Zn-smelter in Qeshm island, Iran, are investigated. Calculated geoaccumulation index (Igeo), contamination factor (Cf), and contamination degree (Cdeg) values indicate surface soil contamination by toxic metals (As, Cd, Pb, and Zn). The results also indicate that most contaminated areas are located in the vicinity of the smelter an...
متن کاملBehavior and Distribution of Heavy Metals Including Rare Earth Elements, Thorium, and Uranium in Sludge from Industry Water Treatment Plant and Recovery Method of Metals by Biosurfactants Application
In order to investigate the behavior, distribution, and characteristics of heavy metals including rare earth elements (REEs), thorium (Th), and uranium (U) in sludge, the total and fractional concentrations of these elements in sludge collected from an industry water treatment plant were determined and compared with those in natural soil. In addition, the removal/recovery process of heavy metal...
