Isotropic total

In Chapter III, surface free energy and surface stress were treated as equivalent, and both were discussed in terms of the energy to form unit additional surface. It is now desirable to consider an independent, more mechanical definition of surface stress. If a surface is cut by a plane normal to it, then, in order that the atoms on either side of the cut remain in equilibrium, it will be necessary to apply some external force to them. The total such force per unit length is the surface stress, and half the sum of the two surface stresses along mutually perpendicular cuts is equal to the surface tension. (Similarly, one-third of the sum of the three principal stresses in the body of a liquid is equal to its hydrostatic pressure.) In the case of a liquid or isotropic solid the two surface stresses are equal, but for a nonisotropic solid or crystal, this will not be true. In such a case the partial surface stresses or stretching tensions may be denoted as Ti and T2-... 

Units and Concentration. In the gaseous as well as the condensed phases, molecular concentration by molecular species is of prime importance. By convention, total pressure in a MaxweUian gas is used as though it indicates the quaUty of the vacuum and as though MaxweUian gases were the rule rather than the exception (12). In general, in dynamic systems, gas pressure (or its partial pressure components) is neither isotropic nor an adequate indicator of molecular significance. 

T he total or global solar radiation has a direct part (beam radiation) and a diffuse part (Fig. 11.31). In the simulation, solar radiation input values must be converted to radiation values for each surface of the building. For nonhorizontal surfaces, the diffuse radiation is composed of (a) the contribution from the diffuse sky and (b) reflections from the ground. The diffuse sky radiation is not uniform. It is composed of three parts, referred to as isotropic, circumsolar, and horizontal brightening. Several diffuse sky models are available. Depending on the model used, discrepancies for the boundary conditions may occur with the same basic set of solar radiation data, thus leading to differences in the simulation results. 

FIG. 20 (a) Density profiles p(z) vs z for e = —2 and four average bulk densities (f> as indicated, (b) Surface excess vs density in the bulk for four choices of e. (c) Profiles for the diagonal components of the pressure tensor and of the total pressure for (p = l.O and e = —2. Insert in (c) shows the difference between P, and Px to show that isotropic behavior in the bulk of the film is nicely obtained, (d) Interfacial tension between the polymer film and the repulsive wall vs bulk density for all four choices of e. Curve is only a guide for the eye [18]. 

For both alloy systems the theoretical results for p obtained in a fully relativistic are found in very satisfying agreement with the corresponding experimental data. In addition to these calculations a second set of calculations has been done making use of the two-current model. This means the partial resistivities p have been calculated by performing scalar relativistic calculations for every spin subsystem separately. As can be seen, the resulting total isotropic resistivity p is reasonably close to the fully relativistic result. Furthermore, one notes that the relative deviation of both sets of theoretical data is more pronounced for Co2,Pdi 2, than for Co2,Pti 2,. This has to be... 

In many isotropic materials the shear modulus G is high compared to the elastic modulus E, and the shear distortion of a transversely loaded beam is so small that it can be neglected in calculating deflection. In a structural sandwich the core shear modulus G, is usually so much smaller than Ef of the facings that the shear distortion of the core may be large and therefore contribute significantly to the deflection of a transversely loaded beam. The total deflection of a beam is thus composed of two factors the deflection caused by the bending moment alone, and the deflection caused by shear, that is, S = m + Ss, where S = total deflection, Sm = moment deflection, and Ss = shear deflection.

If the isotropic coefficient is specified to be unity, a is just the total (integrated) cross-section. In Appendix A, an alternative quantum mechanical expression for this cross-section is obtained in the electric dipole approximation. By comparing the two expressions, it can be seen that the Legendre polynomial coefficients in Eq. (11) may be obtained from the inner summation terms in Eq. (A.15). Hence, the Legendre polynomial coefficients are... 

The shapes of both /w and 7hv lines are assumed to be represented by simple Lorentzians. For a totally symmetric vibration with a low polarization ratio as in the present case, the vibrational and reorientational relaxation times Tv and can be determined from the half-widths of the isotropic and anisotropic spectra. Since the value of /hv is much smaller than that of /w for the 1050 cm" line, the contribution of /gv to the isotropic intensity can be neglected ... 

In a. p. and s.o. ZV(a) and ZV(i) samples, no ESR signals were detected. In a.p. ZV(acac), a weak ESR signal of vanadyl species was detected (5% of total V), absent after the s.o. treatment. The spectra of samples reduced with CO at 400 to 623 K consisted of a signal showing a resolved hyperfine structure (Vh), overlapping a broad (AHnp = 300 Gauss) and nearly-isotropic band (Vb, giso = 1 -97) (Fig. 3). When recorded at 77 K, both Vh and Vb maintained the same shape as at RT, and their Intensity as a function of temperature followed the Curie law. 

An isotropic extinction parameter, of type I and Lorentzian distribution (in the formalism of Becker and Coppens [16]), was also refined. The motions of the non-H atoms were described by anisotropic parameters, while those of the H atoms by isotropic B s. All these displacement parameters were included among the refinable quantities of the model, for a total of 1161 variables in a single least-squares matrix.
