The rotational property of a quantum liquid at the vicinity of the lamda point Tλ is examined. In a liquid helium 4, shear viscosity shows a slight decrease just above Tλ. We suppose that under the strong influence of Bose statistics, the coherent many-body wave function grows to an intermediate size between a macroscopic and a microscopic size just above Tλ, and suppress the shear viscosity. W...

We use molecular dynamics simulations to study the influence of confinement on the dynamics of a nanoscopic water film at T = 300 K and rho = 1.0 g cm(-3). We consider two infinite hydrophilic (beta-cristobalite) silica surfaces separated by distances between 0.6 and 5.0 nm. The width of the region characterized by surface-dominated slowing down of water rotational dynamics is approximately 0.5...

In this article effects of friction stir welding (FSW) tool rotational and traverse speeds were studied on heat generation and temperature distribution in welding zone of AA1100 aluminum alloy and A441 AISI joint. Computational fluid dynamics method was used to simulate the process with commercial CFD Fluent 6.4 package. To enhance the accuracy of simulation in this Study, the welding line that...

The VLT-Flames Survey for Massive Stars [1, 2] provides precise measurements of rotational velocities and nitrogen surface abundances of massive stars in the Magellanic Clouds. Specifically, for the first time, such abundances have been estimated for stars with significant rotational velocities. This extraordinary data set gives us the unique possibility to calibrate rotationally and magnetical...

Most theoretical models for NMR relaxation in liquids assume that overall rotational motion can be described as rotational diffusion with a single diffusion tensor. Such models cannot handle motions (such as between "closed" and "open" states of an enzyme, or between conformers of a partially disordered system) where the shape of the molecule (and hence its rotational diffusion behavior) fluctu...

We present the implementation of a new crossed-molecular beam, velocity-map ion-imaging apparatus, optimized for collisions of electronically excited molecules. We have applied this apparatus to rotational energy transfer in NO(A(2)Σ(+), v = 0, N = 0, j = 0.5) + Ar collisions, at an average energy of 525 cm(-1). We report differential cross sections for scattering into NO(A(2)Σ(+), v = 0, N' = ...

in this study, the effects of linear and rotational speed of the friction stir welding tool was investigated on the heat generation and distribution at surface and inside of workpiece, material flow and geometry of the welding area of poly methyl methacrylate (pmma) workpiece. the commercial cfd fluent 6.4 software was used to simulation of the process with computational fluid dynamic technique...

Major limitations of adrenal medulla transplantation in animal models of Parkinson's disease have been the relatively small behavioral effects and the poor or inconsistent graft survival. Transplantation of fragments of sural nerve in combination with adrenal medulla has been reported to increase the survival of chromaffin cells in adrenal medulla grafts in primates. In the present study, the p...
