A generic statistical mechanical model is presented for the self-assembly of chiral rod-like units, such as beta-sheet-forming peptides, into helical tapes, which with increasing concentration associate into twisted ribbons (double tapes), fibrils (twisted stacks of ribbons), and fibers (entwined fibrils). The finite fibril width and helicity is shown to stem from a competition between the free...

This paper presents the results of magnetic loss tests on twisted and untwisted 37 multifilaments tapes exposed to an alternating field at power frequencies. The losses are measured using calorimetric methods, which are capable of measuring losses in short tapes with the accuracy of several microwatts per centimeter of tape. The losses of the tape due to the longitudinal field of the untwisted ...

The magnetic flux density component perpendicular to the broad tape face was mapped by miniature Hall probes in the vicinity of a striated YBCO-coated tape at frequencies of external magnetic field from 21 to 400 Hz, applied perpendicularly to the tape surface. For reasons of modelling the coupling current behaviour in tapes with a conductive substrate, we amplified the coupling current–amplitu...

In the cation of the title salt, C23H27N2O4 (+)·C2HO4 (-)·2H2O, both fused pyrrolidine rings exhibit twisted conformations, while the piperidine rings adopt screw-boat and boat conformations. In the crystal, the three components are linked via O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O inter-actions, forming a tape along the b axis. The tapes are further linked by weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. forming a three-dimensional ne...

Effects of insertion of coiled wire in juxtaposition with twisted tapes on heat transfer rate and solar radiation without disturbing the flow inside the riser tubes in a solar flat plate collector is experimentally reconnoitered in this present work. The wire coil used as a turbulator is placed inside the riser tube while the twisted tape is inserted into the wire coil to create a continuous sw...

Characterization of the exact critical current density (Jc) and stress values in twisted superconducting tapes plays an important role for analyzing their magnetic, thermal, mechanical behaviors. In study, a model based on artificial neural network (ANN) is introduced to estimate electro-magneto-mechanical characteristic different tapes. For this purpose, magnetic flux density, temperature, str...
