In the case of growth spirals originating from dislocations with large b, hollow cores with diameters of micrometer order are observed at the spiral center however, when a number of dislocations with small b concentrate in a narrow area, a basin-like depression appears at the central area of the composite spirals, since the curvature of advancement of the spiral steps is reversed near the center. A straight step may appear near the spiral center as an intermediate state in the reversal of step curvature. Several examples are shown in Fig. 5.11.

Figure 5.13. Positive phase contrast photomicrograph of composite spiral in hematite, (0001). A bright contrast appears on the higher side of a step. By tracing the route from the lowest step to higher steps, the lowest step becomes the highest step after one turn, corresponding to Escher s staircase. Since the curvatures of the steps are reversed at the center of a group of dislocations, a depression appears due to the associated strain field (refer to Section 5.7). See also Fig. 5.11.

When the separation is smaller than 19pc/2, the above-mentioned nonintersecting spiral system arises at the beginning, resulting in the so-called composite spiral. At every turn... 

Composite spiral-wound steel-reinforced drainage pipes have also been developed in Japan and Australia and recently introduced into North America. These are used for larger-diameter piping products for storm drainage and sanitary sewer piping applications. 

Rigid paperboard containers are made of paper greater than 0.254 mm (0.010 in) in caUper and include folding cartons, cormgated ftberboard cases, and spiral wound composite cans. Many paperboard cartons require the use of inner liners or overwraps, made of protective grades of paper, plastic, or aluminum foil laminations. 

Hollow-fiber designs are being displaced by spiral-wound modules, which are inherently more fouling resistant, and require less feed pretreatment. Also, thin-film interfacial composite membranes, the best reverse osmosis membranes available, have not been fabricated in the form of hoUow-fine fibers. 

It should be noted that the rechargeable cells discussed later have the same construction and differ only in separator type, electrode composition and cathode / anode balance. For comparison, Fig. 3 shows the design of an AA-size lithium cell. The construction with a spirally rolled electrode increases the power output. 

With due regard to the lateral variations in composition which can arise as a consequence of source geometry and positioning (discussed in Section II), it is vise to analyze the alloy film at a number of representative points. For example, if a catalytic reaction was carried out over an alloy film deposited inside a spherical vessel maintained at a constant temperature over its entire area, then the mean alloy composition (and the uniformity of composition) is required. A convenient procedure is to cut glass reaction vessels carefully into pieces at the end of the experiment and to determine the composition by X-ray fluorescence analysis of a number of representative pieces. Compositions of Pd-Ag alloy films (40) determined at 12 representative parts of a spherical vessel from the intensities of the AgK 12 and PdKau fluorescent X-ray emissions are shown in Table V mean compositions are listed in the first column. (The Pd and Ag sources were separate short concentric spirals.) In other applications of evaporated alloy films to adsorption and catalytic studies, as good or better uniformity of composition was achieved. Analyses of five sections of a cylindrical... 

Hose may be hand built using a three roll wrapping machine. The centres of the three rolls form an equilateral triangle. The hose during construction sits on the junction between the two lower rollers and pressure is exerted to consolidate the composite by the upper movable roller. An extruded inner liner, after fitting to a solid inner mandrel, is placed into the machine between the rollers and then the various layers of rubber coated or resorcinol-formaldehyde-latex treated, fabric are applied in a spiral form, with overlap. Once the reinforcement layers have been added the cover rubber is applied and a cloth, usually nylon, is spirally wrapped around the constructed hose using the roller system. The hose is now ready for vulcanisation.
