Coeval silicate melt and aqueous synthetic fluid inclusions were INTRODUCTION formed at 800°C and 2000 bars in the quartz-saturated haploIn recent years the study of silicate melt inclusions has granite–H2O–NaCl–KCl system. The equilibrium assemblage congained considerable popularity as a method to charsisted of Ab19·2Or31·1Qtz49·1 melt, quartz, and an aqueous solution acterize the PTX evolutio...

Melt flow and dripping of the pyrolysing polymer melt can be both a benefit and a detriment during a fire. In several small-scale fire tests addressing the ignition of a defined specimen with a small ignition source, well-adjusted melt flow and dripping are usually beneficial to pass the test. The presence of flame retardants often changes the melt viscosity crucially. The influence of certain ...

We have performed a future projection of the climate and surface mass balance (SMB) of Svalbard with the MAR (Modèle Atmosphérique Régional) regional climate model forced by MIROC5 (Model for Interdisciplinary Research on Climate), following the RCP8.5 scenario at a spatial resolution of 10 km. MAR predicts a similar evolution of increasing surface melt everywhere in Svalbard followed by a sudd...

[1] Small, self-recording temperature sensors can be deployed quickly and inexpensively to monitor spatial and temporal patterns of snow accumulation and melt in complex environments. Burying these sensors slightly below the soil surface provides a record of the presence or absence of snow cover because near-surface soil temperatures only experience diurnal temperature oscillations when they ar...

this paper presents an investigation on the effect of temperature and raw material on microstructure of fine cellular foam used as the insulation of coaxial cables. a set up was prepared and used to produce fine cellular foamed insulation. as the physical  blowing agent, butane was used. the effect of temperature on the microstructure of polyethylene (pe) was worth to note. at high temperature,...

We have carried out atomistic molecular dynamics simulations of a melt of 1,4-poly~butadiene! from temperatures well above the experimentally observed merging of the primary a process and secondary b process down to temperatures approaching the experimentally observed bifurcation temperature. The relaxation strength and maximum loss frequency and its temperature dependence for the combined a-b ...

Volumetrically significant melt production requires crustal temperatures above approximately 800 °C. At the grain scale, the former presence of melt may be inferred based on various microstructures, particularly pseudomorphs of melt pores and grain-boundary melt films. In residual migmatites and granulites, evidence of melt-extraction pathways at outcrop scale is recorded by crystallized produc...

Mantle–melt interaction during melt transport is explored in one generally moves relative to the residual solid phases. This follows from experimental and theoretical studies of the dimension and steady state. We reconsider the equivalence between one-dimensional steady equilibrium transport and batch melting. In equilibrium textures of olivine-dominated, partially molten systems, which indicat...

In order to predict the jetting and the subsequent buckling flow more accurately, a three dimensional melt flow model was established on a viscous, incompressible, and non-isothermal fluid, and a control volume-based finite volume method was employed to discretize the governing equations. A two-fold iterative method was proposed to decouple the dependence among pressure, velocity, and temperatu...

In the past two decades, the repair and reconstruction of musculoskeletal tissues using biodegradable scaffold materials has emerged as one of the most promising approaches in tissue engineering. The aim of this study is to process, via hot melt extrusion, the biodegradable and biocompatible polymeric materials; poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), ⍺lactose monohydrate and p...
