Diffusion mechanism

Wood, an environmentally friendly construction material, is characterized by a critical attribute that significantly influences its mechanical properties and durability: its moisture absorption behavior. This study expands upon an existing one-dimensional model to develop an innovative two-dimensional numerical framework for simulating moisture propagation within wood.

The scope of this work is threefold: (i) to develop a new model within the framework of hydro-mechanical – damage coupling that can account for the coupling between microcrack (damage), water diffusion and shrinkage at stake for concrete secondary creep; (ii) to implement it in an existing hydro-damage lattice model; (iii) to validate the model with respect to the flexural creep of Fiber Reinforced Concrete (FRC) and Mortars under high sustained load level.

The simulation finds a large number of vacancy-simplexes, which plays a role of diffusion vehicle for cobalt atom and varies with relaxation degree. A new diffusion mechanism for tracer diffusivity in cobalt amorphous solid is supposed as follows: The elemental atomic movement includes a jump of neighbouring atoms into the vacancy-simplexes and then collective displacement of a large number of atoms.

In our study, we used molecular dynamics simulation (MD) to study diffusion mechanism in liquid MgO at a temperature of 3800K at a pressure ranging from 0 to 25 GPa. The calculated results and analysis of dynamical properties, spatially heterogeneous dynamics and diffusion mechanisms in MgO liquids will be reported in detail in this work.

The additional network-modifying cation oxide breaking up this network by the generation of nonbridging O atoms and it has a slight effect on the topology of SiOx and OSiy units. Moreover, the diffusion of network- former atom in sodium-silicate melt is anomaly and diffusion coefficient for sodium atom is much larger than for oxygen or silicon atom. The simulation proves two diffusion mechanisms of the network-former atoms and modifier atoms.

In this work, we investigated the adsorption mechanism of acetone and toluene on the surface of silicene by the quantum simulation method. The images of the potential energy surfaces for different positions of the adsorbate on the silicene surface were explored by Computational DFTbased Nanoscope tool for determination of the most stable configurations and diffusion possibilities.

When boron carbide is used as a neutron absorber in nuclear power plants, large quantities of helium are produced. To simulate the gas behaviour, helium implantations were carried out in boron carbide. The samples were then annealed up to 1500 °C in order to observe the influence of temperature and duration of annealing.

The dynamic properties of iron liquid (Fe) are studied by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. We trace the evolution of local density fluctuations (LDFs) in Fe liquid over the simulation time and in the 300-2300 K temperature range. The result simulation reveals that atomic diffusion is realized through the LDFs and the high localization LDFs at low temperature in the iron liquid is the cause of the anomalous dynamics slowdown. We find that the diffusion depends on both rate of LDFs and the averaged square displacement of particles Fe as one LDF occurs.

Hydrogels composed of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), polyethylenglycol (PEG) and kappacarrageenan (KC) were prepared by radiation crosslinking method. The equilibrium water absorption of hydrogel PVP/KC (A) and PVP/PEG/KC (B) were 45 and 85 g(H2O)/g dried gel, respectively. The n values of the equation Mt /M = ktn were determined to be of 0.6396 for hiđrogel A and 0.9984 for hydrogel B. The water transport mechanism follows the fickian diffusion for hydrogel A, while relaxation diffusion is dominated for hydrogel B. The water vaporization of hiđrogels was also investigated.

Prions are infectious proteins, in which self-propagating amyloid conforma-tions of proteins are transmitted. The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevi-siae, one of the best-studied model eukaryotes, also has prions, and thus provides a tractable model system with which to understand the mechanisms of prion phenomena.

Diffuse noxious inhibitory controls (DNIC) can be produced by different types of conditioning stimuli, but the analgesic properties and underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The aim of this study was to differentiate the induction of DNIC analgesia between noxious electrical and inflammatory conditioning stimuli. Methods: First, rats subjected to either a supramaximal electrical stimulation or an injection of high-dose formalin in the hind limb were identified to have pain responses with behavioral evidence and spinal Fos-immunoreactive profiles. Second, suppression of tail-flick...
