Surface roughness depends on the thin film grain size which in turn depends on the cluster nucleation density [3], therefore SiC film quality can be controlled via managing nucleation process of SiC clusters on the Si surface.
Each process k (k = 1..n, where n is the total number of possible processes) is determined by the probability of realization of this process per unit time and occurs with rate Rk (s-1).
The activation energy for C atom diffusion depends on its local environment and can be represented as follows: Ed = Em + ΣlbEb + ΣliEi, (4) where Em is the migration energy for the carbon adatom, lb, li are the numbers of the nearest carbon and impurity atoms respectively and Eb, Ei are the bonding energy between C and Si atoms in SiC and between C and impurity atoms respectively.
The second term in the right side of the expression (4) takes into account that the bonding energy between Si and C atoms in the SiC cluster on the Si surface depends on the total number of the SiC molecules and hence the number of C atoms in the cluster.
In case of cluster edge diffusion of the carbon atom, i.e. the total number of the neighbors before and after the hop is the same, the edge diffusion rate R3 is equal to: R3 = υ∙exp(-Em /kbT)

However it does not implement the photolithograph process in the fabrication of pattern-less nanotubes but it needs to control the grain size of the metal catalyst to complete the fabrication of high density grown nanotubes.
Fig. 1 Illustration of CNT pattern Size Measurement Procedures Seven carbon nanotubes samples are used in the measurement tests; in which numbers 1–3 are high density pattern-less carbon nanotubes; their grown heights are 64µm, 80µm and 100µm respectively.
In Fig. 5, it is the spectral analyzer measurement result for the number 2 CNT (pattern-less CNT with 80µm height) while in Fig. 6, it is the spectral analysis result from the mirror-formed reflector.
From Fig. 5, it observes that when number 2 CNT is implemented as a reflector its reflected optical energy is quite small and it also suffers large noise interference.
The measurement results for numbers 1–3 CNTs are tabulated in Table 1, it shows that with grown heights of 64.3 um, 79.4 um and 96.8 um pattern-less CNTs they have the same return loss of 45 dB and this is equivalent to a reflectivity of 0.56%.

And Nf is the number of cycles to failure.
Glossy spots are seen on the fracture surfaces in both environments, though the number of glossy spots increases in hydrogen.
Furthermore, though Nf in hydrogen is less than that in nitrogen, the number of such grains with developed slip bands as indicated by arrows in Fig.6 in hydrogen is more than that in nitrogen.

The average area, average diameter, total number of cavities and surface roughness of sealed film are shown in Table 1.
The average area, maximal diameter and total number of cavities for boiling water sealing films is the biggest and these for sol is the smallest.
The average area, average diameter and total numbers of cavities in films sealed by Na2Cr2O7 and boiling water are bigger than unsealed films.
The total number of cavities for boiling water is most in per square millimetre, and it is least for sol sealing.
(2) Two-dimensional morphology shows: the surface of unsealed films consist of rounded grains, the one by sol have some raised bulk and the ones by sodium dichromate and boiling water appears round or oblong cavities

The statement is supported by the image at 15 minutes where microcaverns are already visible; - increasing the duration of the cavitation attack leads to the development of caverns, the size and number of which increases; - the shape of the caverns is trench-type, due to the breaking and expulsion of groups of fragile compounds, respectively of grains of the base metal; - starting from the 90th minute, the differences become more and more difficult to notice, which explains the decrease in the impact force, due to the damping effect of the water and air penetrated into them, during the contraction period of the sonotrode.
Intergranular cracks suggest the presence of impurities or secondary phases at the grain boundaries, which contributed to crack initiation and propagation.
Intergranular cracks indicate the presence of secondary phases (such as Mg2Si intermetallic compulsion) that have weakened the grain boundaries.
Conclusion Cavitation erosion of the WIG remelted surface structure of alloy 6082 presents typical structural degradation characteristics through complex mechanisms that include: - intergranular and transgranular cracking, suggesting the presence of impurities or secondary phases that weaken the material at the grain boundaries; - plastic deformation suggesting energy absorption before fracture; - breakage, predominantly ductile, indicated by the grainy texture and the presence of large cavities; - the eroded surface is very rough, with cavities that overlap and connect with each other, forming large and numerous cavities in the central area.

At the same time, as can be seen from experiments [14 -16], close to surfaces there are sharp changes of the velocity and temperature fields at distances of the order of a grain diameter or less, stemming from the elevated porosity approaching the cubic-package value.
Moreover, the authors when trying to widen the range of the Reynolds number were increasing primarily the ball size instead of increasing the filtration velocity to cover a wide range of Reynolds number change.
Now determine the relation between Reynolds number and distances at which the viscosity is of importance.
The grain diameter or equivalent pore dimension can be used as a characteristic length scale in this law.
For moderate Reynolds numbers the packed bed core contribution should be taken into account.

Despite obvious valuable properties this material has a number of disadvantages that significantly limits the scope of application.
General information Fireresistance tests, carried by a number of researchers, have shown that UHPC matrix could be additionally hardened under temperature exposure of 150 to 300 ˚C [13-15].
Hence: - if Silica fume consumption at minimum (~ 5%) and Quartz powder consumption at maximum (~30 %) – distance between cement grains increases, lowering the role of pozzolanic reactions in dense structure formation, porosity of the crystalline phase also rises, which cause permeability growth; - if Silica fume consumption at maximum (~25%) and Quartz powder consumption at minimum (~10 %) – distance between cement grains increases due to the composition over-satiation with SF grains, which cause additional flocculation and increase amount of micro-defects under oven heat treatment

The cyclic number at which the applied load drops to 30% of its starting value was considered as fatigue life, Nf.
If the number of cycles to initiate a crack of length ao is N1 and the number of cycles to propagate the crack to a critical crack size af is N2, the number of cycles to failure Nf can be represented by Nf=N1+N2 (1) The curve of maximum tensile stress versus cyclic number N is shown in Fig. 2.
When the total strain amplitude is as high as ±1.5%, a definite saturation stress is observed after slow cyclic hardening during the first several cycles Fig. 2 Cyclic stress behavior as a function of the number of cycles N Effects of Test Temperature.
Unlike the results observed in superalloys where the reduction of fatigue life is caused by oxygen embrittlement of the grain boundaries [11, 12], the environmental effect on the fatigue life is little in Ti60 alloy because of its transgranular crack initiation and propagation mode.

A sensor node might vary in size from that of a shoebox down to the size of a grain of dust, although functioning "motes" of genuine microscopic dimensions have yet to be created.
Although some multi-core processors, such as Intel’s Core Duo, allow measuring the number of cache lines allocated to each co-runner, they provide no mechanism to enforce fair cache sharing.
The expression for is: (2) L2MissPI denotes the number of cache misses per instruction; L2CopyBackPI represents the number of transactions (per instruction) writing dirty cache lines back to memory; MemoryLatency equals memory access time required to fetch a cache line and memory-bus delay per memory transaction.
StoreBuffLatencyPI presents the number of cycles per instruction a processor latency on a store buffer Now, we can calculate the, where and can get from performance hardware counters.
The relationship between the co-runners’ miss rates for a processor with n+1 cores is presented by equation (5) (5) Where is a thread for which we compute the fair miss rate, is the ith co-runner, is the number of co-runners, and a and b are the linear equation coefficients.

Because of its high production efficiency and material utilization, appropriate metal flow distribution and compact crystal grain, it becomes very important in modern manufacture.
A large number of tetrahedral elements were used for the billet in this simulation so that the material flow was well represented in the critical regions of the die cavity for more accurate design.
The advantage of performing simulations is that no tooling has to be built and the number of experimental tryouts can be significantly reduced.
