We introduce a coarse-grained model for atomic glass formers. Its elements are physically motivated local microscopic dynamical rules parameterized by observables. Results of the model are established and used to interpret the measured behaviors of supercooled fluids approaching glass transitions. The model predicts the presence of a crossover from hierarchical super-Arrhenius dynamics at short...

Polyesters, such as poly (butylene terephthalate) (PBT), owe a rather low melt strength, which is considered not beneficial for foaming. To overcome this issue, typical attempt the incorporation of chemical modifications—so-called chain extenders (CE)—in reactive extrusion process. In study, reaction kinetic variables are investigated depending on material and process parameters. For purpose, d...

Abstract. The meta-plot is a descriptive visual tool for meta-analysis that provides information on the primary studies in and results of meta-analysis. More precisely, portrays (1) precision statistical power meta-analysis, (2) estimate confidence interval random-effects (3) cumulative yielding robustness check meta-analytic effect size with respect to studies’ precision, (4) evidence publicat...

1. The effect of temperature on the reaction time of Mya to light is mainly confined to the latent period. The sensitization period, representing a photochemical process, is changed comparatively little. 2. The relation between the latent period and the temperature is adequately expressed by the Arrhenius equation, for temperatures below 21 degrees C. Above this temperature, the latent period b...

A nonlinear mathematical model was developed and experimentally validated to investigate the effects of changes in optical properties during interstitial laser photocoagulation (ILP). The effects of dynamic optical properties were calculated using the Arrhenius damage model, resulting in a nonlinear optothermal response. This response was experimentally validated by measuring the temperature ri...
