  • RARE Velocimetry of Shear Banded Flow in Cylindrical Couette Geometry
    RARE Velocimetry of Shear Banded Flow in Cylindrical Couette Geometry by Stefan Kuczera A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2015 Abstract A flow phenomena called ‘shear banding’ is often observed for a certain class of complex fluids, namely wormlike micellar solutions. Wormlike micelles are elongated flexible self-assembly struc- tures formed by the aggregation of amphiphiles, which may entangle into a dynamic network above a certain concentration threshold. The entanglement results in the sample having both solid-like (elastic) and liquid-like (viscous) properties, an ambiguity commonly found in com- plex fluids. Under certain shear conditions, the flow couples with the structure of the micellar network, leading to the formation of (shear) bands with differing viscosity. The principle goal of this work is to address open questions regarding the temporal and spatial stability of shear banded flow. Shear banding is often studied in cylindrical Couette cells, where the fluid is sheared in a gap between differentially rotating concentric cylinders. For the sake of an accurate description of the flow in such a shear cell, the methodology for a 2D Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) velocimetry technique (known as PGSE-RARE), which offers high temporal and spatial resolution, is improved and refined. Two main challenges are identified and overcome. The first concerns the fact that the velocity imaging process operates on a Cartesian grid, whereas the flow in the Couette cell is of cylindrical symmetry. Numerical calculations and NMR simulations based on the Bloch equations, as well as experimental evidence, give insight on the appropriate selection of the fluid volume over which velocity information is accumulated and the preferred scheme through which the NMR image is acquired in the so-called k-space.

  • Sustainable Economic Growth for New Zealand: an Optimistic Myth-Busting Perspective
    contributingpaper 1 Sustainable economic growth for New Zealand: An optimistic myth-busting perspective Sir Paul Callaghan 31 March 2011 This paper was prepared by Sir Paul Callaghan for the participants of the StrategyNZ: Mapping our Future workshop held in March 2011. Long-term vision is something we tend to avoid in New Zealand, with the possible exception of Måori, who have greater reason to focus on the development of their assets for future generations of mokopuna. But I will argue here that vision is essential to any strategy aimed at enhancing prosperity. It is my belief that we are poor because we choose to be poor, and that what holds us back are self-serving but dishonest myths. The first myth is that we are an egalitarian society, a great place to bring up children. But in income disparity, child mortality, imprisonment rates and most other negative social indicators, we are among the worst in the OECD. The second myth is that we are clean and green. In truth, the reality is altogether different. Like other developed countries we have despoiled our environment to eke out a measure of prosperity, and we therefore have no moral high ground from which to preach to others. Our valuable dairy industry severely impacts our rivers and lakes. Our pastoral industries are significant emitters of greenhouse gases. The third myth is that we, as New Zealanders, do not need prosperity, that we have ‘lifestyle’ instead. But we complain that our health system cannot afford to meet our needs and that our infrastructure is decrepit.

Consistent with the literature, strontium segregation was observed for samples that received thermal treatments with the formation of an Sr–O based monolayer at the surface. Just below this, a sub-surface strontium depletion region over a depth scale of approximately 2–15 nm was seen. In this sub-surface region, a depletion of lanthanum was also observed. Oxygen transport properties were measured using isotopic labelling techniques and showed that, despite large changes in composition, the transport Received 18th June 2020 properties remain largely unchanged.

  • 2010 Academy Annual Report
    This document has been created from historical website content. 2010 Academy Annual Report The 2010 Academy Annual Report details the accomplishments of the Academy of the Royal Society of New Zealand throughout the year. Chair’s foreword In January 2010 the final act of “embracing the Humanities” within the Royal Society took place with the signing of an MOU between Te Whainga Aronui The Council for the Humanities and Te Apārangi the Royal Society of New Zealand. President Dr Garth Carnaby described this as landmark decision for both organisations. “For the first time there will be an organisation in New Zealand that promotes excellence in research and scholarship across all the disciplines and areas of knowledge.” The CV’s of the existing fellows of the Council for the Humanities were reviewed by the Academy Executive and these people were admitted to the Fellowship by a special resolution at the Fellow’s AGM. The Academy has continued to provide “information pieces” and forward- looking contributions on present and emerging debates that were introduced in 2009. In 2010, 2 information statements were prepared. Sea Level Rise: Emerging Issues recounted the significant changes in the scientific understanding of this issue since the 2007 Assessment Report by the IPCC. The Darfield Earthquake: The Value of Long-term Research was produced to document the research conducted in New Zealand over many years on how to construct and strengthen buildings to improve performance during large earthquakes. The application of this science and engineering undoubtedly played a big role in limiting the damage and injury caused by the 2010 Christchurch earthquake.

  • Ceramics from Wet-Processing of Martian Soil Simulant Using Slip Casting Or Additive Manufacturing for In-Situ Resource Utilization
    DOI: 10.13009/EUCASS2019-769 Ceramics from wet-processing of Martian soil simulant using slip casting or Additive Manufacturing for in-situ resource utilization on Mars David Karl # *, Franz Kamutzki*, Andrea Zocca**, Pedro Lima**, Oliver Goerke*, Jens Guenster** and Aleksander Gurlo* * Fachgebiet Keramische Werkstoffe / Chair of Advanced Ceramic Materials, TU Berlin, Germany. ** Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und –prüfung (BAM), Berlin, Germany. # Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract For future colonization of Planet Mars, the most realistic approach for the production of parts on site is in situ resource utilization (ISRU). In this study, we demonstrate the feasibility of this concept by producing objects of varying complexity exclusively using resources that can be found on the surface of Mars. The established production routes using slip casting and Additive Manufacturing via wet- processing of Mars simulant material are simple, robust and easily transferable even to the harsh conditions on Mars. After sintering our slip cast parts have mechanical properties comparable to commercially available porcelain, making them suitable for everyday use. 1. Introduction A promising concept for the exploration and subsequent colonization of Moon and Mars is in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) - collecting, processing and storing of native materials that are encountered during human or robotic space exploration [1]. Early colonization scenarios suggest the direct use of rock-covering loose granular surface media (including dust, soil and rubble) consisting of various oxide minerals called lunar and Mars regoliths. The chemical composition of lunar and Mars regolith makes the extraction of metals and ceramics conceivable. The availability of ceramic tools is an important prerequisite for melting regolith in blast furnaces and bloomeries for the production of base metals.
