Diffusion in Solids and Liquids VIII

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView: As well as reporting research results and surveying the literature, the68 selected papers grapple with issues concerning the conduct of researchitself. The topics include preparing cobalt ferrite-silicon core shell nanoparticlesdoped with ferromagnetic manganese for possible biological application,thermal expansion in copper and nickel sulfides and their alloys, describingthe drying of whole bananas with a diffusion model that uses a numericalsolution through generalized coordinates, analyzing the substructure ofhigh-manganese steels in the context of a dominant stress mechanism, theimpact of selected structure parameters of reinforcing preforms formetal-matrix composites on their saturation process, investigating saltdiffusion in soil by using radiotracing techniques, assessing the influenceof the Hess-Murray Law on suspension flow through ramified structures, andsewage sludge flow and drying characteristics in paddle dryers. Alsoavailable in electronic form.
