Shape-persistent and tough cellulose hydrogels were fabricated by a stepwise solvent exchange from a homogeneous ionic liquid solution of cellulose exposure to methanol vapor. The cellulose hydrogels maintain their shapes under changing temperature, pH, and solvents. The micrometer-scale patterns on the mold were precisely transferred onto the surface of cellulose hydrogels. We also succeeded i...

In this paper, based on MSC Simufact.Forming v16.0 simulation software, the process parameters in multi-pass spinning production of deep cylinders with a large diameter–thickness ratio are optimized, and ten-pass cylinder diameter 500 mm, thickness 2 mm depth 700 is realized. By controlling four mandrel speed, feed rate, wheel fillet radius angle attack, influence force wall deviation formed wo...

A common problem in production of core–spun yarns on the Ring spinning frame is the slippage of the staple fibers as sheath fibers relative to the core. This effect is known as ‘strip-back’ or barberpole. This problem may lead to an incomplete core coverage and results in end–breaks in subsequent processing. In order to avoid this problem, in the present work, core spun yarns (acrylic sheath fi...

The development of melt spinning technique for preparation of metallic glasses was summarized. The limitations as well as restrictions of the melt spinning embodiments were also analyzed. As an improvement and variation of the melt spinning method, the vertical-type twin-roll casting (VTRC) process was discussed. As the thermal history experienced by the casting metals to a great extent determi...

In parallel and distributed computing environments, threads (or processes) share access to variables and data structures. To assure consistency during updates, locks are used. When a thread attempts to acquire a lock but nds it busy, it must choose between, spinning, which means repeatedly attempting to acquire the lock in the hope that it will become free, and blocking, which means suspending ...
