All of the equations of motion are derived by using Lagrangian mechanics and then transformed into a form consisting of an unperturbed part plus perturbed terms so that the system＇s nonlinear characteristics can be exploited in phase space. Emphases are laid on the chaotic attitude dynamics produced from certain sets of physical parameter values of the spacecraft when energy dissipation acts to derive the body from minor to major axis spin. Numerical solutions of these equations show that the attitude dynamics of liquid-filled flexible spacecraft possesses characteristics common to random, non- periodic solutions and chaos, and it is demonstrated that the desired reorientation maneuver is guaranteed by using a pair of thruster impulses. The control strategy for reorientation maneuver is designed and the numerical simulation results are presented for both the uncontrolled and controlled spins transition.展开更多

It is based on the concept that an SMA is a mixture composed of austenite and martensite, the volume fraction of each phase is transformable with the change of applied thermal-mechanical loading, and the constitutive behavior of the SMA is the combination of the individual behavior of its two phases. The deformation of the martensite is separated into elastic, thermal, reorientation and plastic parts, and that of the austenite is separated into elastic, thermal and plastic parts. Making use of the Tanaka＇s transformation rule modified by taking into account the effect of plastic deformation, the constitutive model of the SMA is obtained. The ferroelasticity, pseudoelastieity and shape memory effect of SMA Au-47.5 at.%Cd, and the pseudoelasticity and shape memory effect as well as plastic deformation and its effect of an NiTi SMA, are analyzed and compared with experimental results.展开更多

The relationship between ac initial susceptibility and temperature of nickel films with different thicknesses shows that the magnetization orientation changes from in-plane to out-of-plane with the increase of temperature. The temperature dependence of mugnetoelastic, magneto-crystalline, and magnetostatic anisotropies determines the direction of the reorientation transition. The temperature-driven spin reorientation transition is supported by Hall coefficient measurements which show that its temperature dependence is similar to that of susceptibility.展开更多

The alloys of Tb0.3Dy0.6Pr0.1(Fe1-xAlx)1.95 substantially retain MgCu2-type C-15 cubic Laves phase structure when x【0.2. The mixed phases appear with x = 0.2, and cubic Laves phase decreases with increasing x. The magnetostriction of the Tb0.3Dy0.6Pr0.1(Fe1-xAlx)1.95 alloys decreases drastically with increasing x and the giant magnetostrictive effect disappears for x 】 0.15. Fortunately, a small amount of Al substitution is beneficial to a decrease in the magnetocrystalline anisotropy. The spin reorientation temperature decreases with increasing x. The analysis of the Mssbauer spectra indicates that the easy magnetization direction in the {110} plane deviates slightly from the main axis of symmetry with the increase of Al concentration x, namely, spin reorientation, resulting in the change of macroscopical magnetic properties and magnetostriction. The hyperfine field decreases, but the isomer shifts increases with Al concentration increasing and the quadruple splitting QS shows a weak concentration dependence.展开更多

However, the signaling mechanism underlying ethylene-induced microtubule reorientation has re- mained elusive. Here, we reveal, by live confocal imaging and kinetic root elongation assays, that the time courses of ethylene-induced microtubule reorientation and root elongation inhibition are highly correlated, and that microtubule reorientation is required for the full responsiveness of root elongation to ethylene treatment. Our genetic analysis demonstrated that the effect of ethylene on microtubule orientation and root elongation is mainly transduced through the canonical linear ethylene signaling pathway. By using pharmacological and genetic analyses, we demonstrate further that the TIR1/AFBs-Aux/IAAs-ARFs auxin signaling pathway, but not the ABP1-ROP6-RlC1 auxin signaling branch, is essential for ethylene-induced microtubule reorientation and root elongation inhibition. Together, these findings offer evidence for the functional significance and elucidate the signaling mechanism for ethylene-induced microtubule reorientation in fast root elongation inhibition in Arabidopsis.展开更多

It is shown that,contrary to the standard conception that these dynamics are diffusional,the reorientation of a water molecule occurs by sudden,large amplitude angular jumps. The mechanism involves the exchange of one hydrogen bond for another by the reorienting water,and the process can be fruitfully viewed as a chemical reaction. The results for reorientation times,which can be well described analytically,are discussed in the context of the molecular level interpretation of recent ultrafast infrared spectroscopic results,focusing on the concepts of structure making/breaking and solvent 'icebergs'.展开更多

文摘This study investigated a peculiar phenomenon of self-reorientation of thermally formed R phase in nanocrystalline Ti_(50)Ni_(45.5)Fe_(4.5)by means of in-situ syn-chrotron high energy X-ray diffraction(HE-XRD).Two samples with different average grain sizes of 40 and 90 nm were investigated.R phase in the 40-nm grain size sample was found to self-reorient gradually upon cooling,whereas the same phenomenon did not occur in the 90-nm grain size sample.This self-reorientation process is attributed to the development and evolution of an internal stress anisotropy caused by the second order continuous lattice distortion of R phase upon further cooling in the small nanograined matrix,which lacks the self-accommodation mechanism for internal stress cancellation.

文摘In this work,we report the reorientation of magnetization by spin-orbit torque(SOT)in YIG/Pt bilayers.The SOT is investigated by measuring the spin Hall magnetoresistance(SMR),which is highly sensitive to the direction of magnetic moment of YIG.An external in-plane rotating magnetic field which is applied to the YIG/Pt bilayers,and the evolutions of SMR under different injected currents in the Pt layer,result in deviation of SMR curve from the standard shape.We conclude that the SOT caused by spin accumulation near the interface between YIG and Pt can effectively reorient the inplane magnetic moment of YIG.This discovery provides an effective way to modulate YIG magnetic moments by electrical methods.

文摘Twinning stress is known to be a critical factor for the actuating performance of magnetic shape memory alloys because of the harmful deterioration of their magnetic field-induced strain effect.However,the intrinsic origin of the high twinning stress is still in debate.In this work,we firstly fill this gap by precisely probing the reorientation behaviors of A-C and A-B two common macro-twin interfaces under the stimulus of uniaxial compression in-situ transmission electron microscope.The grain boundary is proved to be the main reason for large twinning stress.The twinning stress of the A-C and A-B type interfaces quantitatively are~0.69 and 1.27 MPa within the plate respectively.The A-C type interface evidently has smaller twinning stress and larger deformation variable than the A-B interface.Under the action of compression,not only the orientations of the crystals have changed,but also the roles of the major and minor lamellae have changed for both interfaces due to the movements of twinning dislocations.Combining insitu and quasi in-situ electron diffraction data,the reorientation process is clearly and intuitively shown by the stereographic projection.Atomic models and the theory of dislocation motion are proposed to phenomenologically clarify the intrinsic mechanism.This work is believed to not only provide a deeper understanding of the deformation mechanism of magnetic shape memory alloys under uniaxial compression testing,but also discover that compression training is not the mechanical training way to decrease the twinning stress of non-modulated martensite in single crystal shape memory alloys.

文摘The temperature-driven spin reorientation transition of magnetron sputtered Ni/Si （111） systems has been studied. The relationship between ac initial susceptibility and temperature of nickel films with different thicknesses shows that the magnetization orientation changes from in-plane to out-of-plane with the increase of temperature. The temperature dependence of mugnetoelastic, magneto-crystalline, and magnetostatic anisotropies determines the direction of the reorientation transition. The temperature-driven spin reorientation transition is supported by Hall coefficient measurements which show that its temperature dependence is similar to that of susceptibility.

文摘Antifreeze proteins(AFPs)inhibit ice recrystallization by a mechanism remaining largely elusive.Dynamics of AFPs’hydration water and its involvement in the antifreeze activity have not been identified conclusively.We herein,by simulation and theory,examined the water reorientation dynamics in the first hydration layer of an AFP from the spruce budworm,Choristoneura fumiferana,compared with a protein cytochrome P450(CYP).The increase of potential acceptor water molecules around donor water molecules leads to the acceleration of hydrogen bond exchange between water molecules.Therefore,the jump reorientation of water molecules around the AFP active region is accelerated.Due to the mutual coupling and excitation of hydrogen bond exchange,with the acceleration of hydrogen bond exchange,the rearrangement of the hydrogen bond network and the frame reorientation of water are accelerated.Therefore,the water reorientation dynamics of AFP is faster than that of CYP.The results of this study provide a new physical image of antifreeze protein and a new understanding of the antifreeze mechanism of antifreeze proteins.
文摘DyTiFe_(11) compound is a ferromagnetic substance.It has tetragonal body-centered ThMn_(12)-type crystallographic structure.At room temperature,the easy magnetization direction is the c-axis.A spin reorientation begins to appear at about 175K.The contribution of Fe sublattice to magnetocrystalline anisotropy was determined by experiments and that of Dy sublattice was obtained by using single ion model calculation.Results show that the spin reorientation arises from the competition of anisotropy between Fe and Dy sublattices.
文摘INTRODUCTION The conformational state transition of polymer chains relates to crystallization processes, migration ofthe chains in solution, fluctuation of the end-to-end distance of random coils, and the relaxation and phasetransitions of polymers. A description of the conformational state transition requires questions about; 1) howmany stable conformational states for a specific σ bond; 2) the barriers between the states; 3) the mechanismof the conformational transition; 4) any cooperative behavior during the transition.

文摘The effects of Al substitution for Fe on the structure, magnetics, magnetostriction, anisotropy and spin reorientation of a series of Tb0.3Dy0.6Pr0.1(Fe1-xAlx)1.95 alloys (x=0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.25, 0.3) at room temperature have been investigated. The alloys of Tb0.3Dy0.6Pr0.1(Fe1-xAlx)1.95 substantially retain MgCu2-type C-15 cubic Laves phase structure when x【0.2. The mixed phases appear with x = 0.2, and cubic Laves phase decreases with increasing x. The magnetostriction of the Tb0.3Dy0.6Pr0.1(Fe1-xAlx)1.95 alloys decreases drastically with increasing x and the giant magnetostrictive effect disappears for x 】 0.15. Fortunately, a small amount of Al substitution is beneficial to a decrease in the magnetocrystalline anisotropy. The spin reorientation temperature decreases with increasing x. The analysis of the Mssbauer spectra indicates that the easy magnetization direction in the {110} plane deviates slightly from the main axis of symmetry with the increase of Al concentration x, namely, spin reorientation, resulting in the change of macroscopical magnetic properties and magnetostriction. The hyperfine field decreases, but the isomer shifts increases with Al concentration increasing and the quadruple splitting QS shows a weak concentration dependence.

文摘Microtubule reorientation is a long-standing observation that has been implicated in regulating the inhibitory effect of ethylene on axial elongation of plant cells. However, the signaling mechanism underlying ethylene-induced microtubule reorientation has re- mained elusive. Here, we reveal, by live confocal imaging and kinetic root elongation assays, that the time courses of ethylene-induced microtubule reorientation and root elongation inhibition are highly correlated, and that microtubule reorientation is required for the full responsiveness of root elongation to ethylene treatment. Our genetic analysis demonstrated that the effect of ethylene on microtubule orientation and root elongation is mainly transduced through the canonical linear ethylene signaling pathway. By using pharmacological and genetic analyses, we demonstrate further that the TIR1/AFBs-Aux/IAAs-ARFs auxin signaling pathway, but not the ABP1-ROP6-RlC1 auxin signaling branch, is essential for ethylene-induced microtubule reorientation and root elongation inhibition. Together, these findings offer evidence for the functional significance and elucidate the signaling mechanism for ethylene-induced microtubule reorientation in fast root elongation inhibition in Arabidopsis.

文摘We discuss some key aspects of our recent theoretical work on water reorientation dynamics,which is important in a wide range of phenomena,including aqueous phase chemical reactions,protein folding,and drug binding to proteins and DNA. It is shown that,contrary to the standard conception that these dynamics are diffusional,the reorientation of a water molecule occurs by sudden,large amplitude angular jumps. The mechanism involves the exchange of one hydrogen bond for another by the reorienting water,and the process can be fruitfully viewed as a chemical reaction. The results for reorientation times,which can be well described analytically,are discussed in the context of the molecular level interpretation of recent ultrafast infrared spectroscopic results,focusing on the concepts of structure making/breaking and solvent 'icebergs'.
文摘Nd12.3Fe81.7-xZrxB6.0 (x=0,1.5) and (NdDyTb)12.3(FeZrNbCu)81.7-yCoyB6.0 (y=0,12) ribbons were prepared by melt spinning at 22 m/s and subsequent annealing.The influences of Zr,Dy/Tb and Co substitutions on magnetic properties and spin reorientation transitions of nanophase Nd2Fe14B have been systematically investigated.Compared with Zr-free sample,the remanence,intrinsic coercivity and maximum energy product for Nd12.3Fe80.2Zr1.5B6.0 ribbon increase by 10.8 %,17.8 % and 60.2 %,respectively.The significant improvement of magnetic properties originates from the finer grains of the sample by introducing Zr,which leads to the stronger exchange coupling between neighboring grains.The intrinsic coercivity for (DyTb)-substituted ribbon is significantly increased although the remanence is reduced,which could be compensated by the substitution of Co for Fe.The spin reorientation temperature Tsr of nanocrystalline Nd2Fe14B alloys was determined by measuring the ac magnetic susceptibility.It was found to be lower than that of bulk Nd2Fe14B.The substitutions of Zr,Dy/Tb and Co result in reduction of Tsr.The smaller the grain size,the lower the Tsr will be.Influence of spin reorientation on magnetization characteristics of nanophase Nd2Fe14B was discussed.
