I want to simulate the plasticity for the Ti and its alloys with two phases (Alpha and Beta) in Abaqus. Now I have already created the microstructure model but unsure what properties I should assign to its two constituent phases, namely alpha and beta, as I only know the bulk material parameters (e.g., Ti-10Mn)?
Alpha and beta are part of Ti-8Mn; the only difference I see is that one will be HCP while the other the BCC structure, so how do I create such a material?
Relevant answer
Answer
I assume you are using some kind of crystal plasticity model.
You can find parameters for the alpha phase here:
and see the crystal plasticity implementation here:
In crystal plasticity, you will need to use two different material models for the two phases. Normally in Abaqus you would define two different user materials and assign them to the different grains representing different phases (sections of the geometry).

The term "phase" is always a confusing thing for me. When we recoding images, we say that we have recorded the amplitude and phase. Amplitude I am able to relate/ physically understand by connecting with intensity. As, intensity increases, the amplitude will also increase. But the phase term is still I am not able to digest.

Dear all,
I am trying to find a way to find dispersion curves of plates using Rayleigh-Lamb frequency equations. I used a repetitive procedure by sweeping through the frequencies and inside it increasing the phase velocity incrementally to find the roots of the equation.
In each frequency, there is some roots of phase velocity. As symmetric and asymmetric equations are already separated it is easy to separate data points of the two different waves. However, at the end of the process we have just (W frequency , Cp phase velocity) datapoints and after plotting the result we can see the behavior of the curves to manually define the mode number.
Main question: One way of clustering the data to different modes is to sweep through the data and define the first Cp as the mode zero, the second one as 1st mode and so on.
1. What if we had a crossing between curves?
2. I got some identical roots derived from both symmetric and asymmetric equations. How can one distinguish these datapoints correctly for the type of wave they belong?
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Are both the phases crystallographically same? Can WSexist in both the phases or not?
Relevant answer
Answer
The transition metal is surrounded by chalcogen atoms and forms the structure like trigonal prism. Another form is the metallic 1T phase in which transition metal is synchronized by chalcogen atoms octahedrally. A distorted version of 1T phase is refer as 1T’ phase, in this structure transition metal atoms are just about octahedrally synchronized by chalcogen atoms but with less symmetry. The 2D lattice of the 2H and 1T single layers is hexagonal but the 2D lattice of 1T’ monolayer is rectangular. Phase change occurs from the 2H to 1T take place between 820 C and 880 C . Once the transition into 1T-phase occurs, this arrangement continues it’s meta-stable at high temperature without changing back into the 2H-phase. Above 1100 C it converted into 1T’ phase.
Yes WS2 can represents it self in both phases.

IRS modify the phase and Backscatter device adjust the reflection coefficient. Backscatter device can modulate its information symbols over incident carriers by intelligently changing its load impedance and IRS can also modulate its own information. So, how they are different from each other ?
Relevant answer
Answer
IRS is getting a gradually wider meaning. Many people are considering the use case when the IRS acts as a relay that support the transmission from a source to a destination, by configuring how it reflects the incident signals towards the destination.
But if the IRS is also trying to convey its own information, by encoding it into how it varies the reflection properties over time, then it also performs backscattering communications.
So the topics are overlapping. Some people might say that backscattering is a special case (or use case) of IRS technology. Others might say that IRS technology is capable of performing backscattering communication, as an add-on to its primary use cases.

Relevant answer
Answer
If you study the differences in phase splitter and phase inverters, the idea belongs to audio amplifier (http://www.angelfire.com/electronic/funwithtubes/Amp-Phase.html) , but you are doing something for the induction motor, so in my opinion you concentrate on the problem. Now a days, all of this is done through Power-bridge circuits(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H_bridge), and the idea of changing phase through phase splitter is gone, unless you have a very big load.

I have read that to know the composition of different phases in a ternary phase diagram of metals A,B,C (at a particular temp. T), we can apply lever rule along the tie line. But, I am not sure about how to draw the tie line and how to apply lever rule along it as some procedure says to use line and few have mentioned smaller triangles to draw (tie-triangles) to know the composition of the phases. Kindly illustrate on the concept. Thanks in advance for help.
Relevant answer
Answer
Dear Adhidesh,
Unfortunately, you can not predict those tie lines that you see in ternary phase diagrams, they are experimentally determined by different techniques depending on what kind of sample you have (NMR spectroscopy, low-angle x-ray scattering and etc...). Usually, when the two phases region is determined, the tie lines are determined as well. I think your question was: can i draw the tie limes (by geometry or any other mathematical means) if i know the limits of the two phases region? The answer is no, those lines are experimentally determined by analyzing the composition of the two phases.
For example, if you know the limits of the two phases, what you do is take many samples inside the two phases region and determine analytically the composition of each phase: if you have one phase with 25% of A, 50% of B and 25% of C and the other phase with 60% of A, 30% of B and 10% of C, you now have two points that can be connected to form one tie line.
Once you have sufficiently tie lines inside your two phases region, other tie lines can be predicted (conjugate lines).
Best,
Thiago.

Question
36 answers
A photon is a wave-packet which can be Fourier expanded as
(1) Σp exp[i(pr - Et)/ħ]
The phase velocity, i.e. the velocity of propagation of the phase, is obtained for each Fourier component by requiring
(2) φp = (pr - Et)/ħ = const.
Taking the time derivative one gets pdr/dt = E , i.e. the well-known relation,
(4) pvφp = E.
The phase velocity vφp is not the same for all the Fourier components, some of them propagate more quickly and some more slowly. Some propagate faster than c, some are slower than c, leading to the dispersion of the wave-packet after some time. The universal constant c is the group velocity, not the phase velocity.
WHY the group velocity has more physical significance than the phase velocity? And why all the photons have the same group velocity, c?
Relevant answer
Answer
There is another nice way to visualize high phase velocities..assume you are standing on a beach and the (water) waves are coming with some shallow angle to the beach..then the speed of propagation of those water waves (which for water waves depends on the depth of the water) can be seen as a kind of group velocity but the speed with which the wave breaking front is running up the beach is a phase velocity.The phase velocity is something very clearly physical and can easily be measured (e.g via standing wave pattern in a waveguide) but also in acoustics. And what you teacher told you that the PHASE velocity near an antenna may exceed the speed of light is absolutely correct similar to the situation at a waveguide below cutoff.BUT there are many claims that also the group velocity in such cases exceeds v=c which can easily be "demonstrated" but one should be very careful before interpreting this as signal velocity (V>c) since it usually violates the underlaying approximation or condition to use that simple definition only for weak dispersion.

Can any one suggest a stable electronic circuit which can measure very low phase angle, of the order of minutes between two sinusoidal voltages at power frequency.
Relevant answer
Answer
It is possible to measure the phase shift angle between two voltages with the help of comparators for calibrating instrument transformers. Phase displacement of 10 angular minutes can be measured with the standard uncertainty at the level of about 0.06 angular minutes.
The task of determining the phase shift angle between the two AC voltages can be solved using a precision multimeter measuring three voltages: each of the shifted voltages V1 and V2 and the difference between them V3.
Then calculate the phase shift by equation: acos {V1 / (2 * V2) + V2 / (2 * V1) - (V3 * V3) / (2 * V1 * V2)}.
So, you can define 0.07 angular minute with uncertainty of 0.003 angular minute (see "The method of measuring the phase shift angle between two voltages using a precision voltmeter").

I am going to create phase-randomized surrogated time series [they can be generated by randomizing the phases of the Fourier transformed components of the original time series between 0-2pi] for my daily or monthly time series, but to keep the cycle of fluctuations in the generated times series I want to keep the original phase related to the most significant frequency of my original time series in the generated ones. 
I found the most significant frequency of my original time series which is 0.002738601 and so is related to the period (T) of 365.1499 days which means it is related to the Annual Cycle.
Now I want to keep the original phase related to this frequency in my generated time series, while all other phases are randomized between 0-2pi.
I can make my phase-randomized generated time series but I am not sure how can I keep the phase related to a especial frequency in the generated time series.
I changed the format of my question by removing my codes and explaining it more clear.
I am doing my coding in R, but this question can be assumed as a general question related to signal analysis.
Relevant answer
Answer
Here is how I would do it in Matlab:
Generate a signal that consists of two sinusoids of frequencies 15 Hz and 40 Hz. The signal is sampled at 100 Hz for one second.
fs = 100; t = 0:1/fs:1-1/fs; x = sin(2*pi*15*t) + sin(2*pi*40*t);
Compute the discrete Fourier transform of the signal. Plot the magnitude of the transform as a function of frequency.
y = fft(x); ly = length(y); f = (-ly/2:ly/2-1)/ly*fs;
Compute the phase:
phs = angle(fftshift(y));
Compute the phase of the peak amplitude fft:
[~,maxindex]=max(abs(y));
maxphase=phs(maxindex);
Generate random phases:
phasemin = 0; phasemax = 2*pi; fftlength=length(y);
newphase = (b-a).*rand(fftlength,1) + a;
Inject the previous phase of the maximum peak in fft:
newphase(maxindex)=maxphase;
Note that this is for a double sided spectrum. The code needs some adapting, seeing as it is done for a double sided spectrum, but the approach is similar. Hope this helps.

Hello:
 I´m working on an analog active crossver in the audio range and need to achieve zero phase (or close to it) in the pass band. I have tried several prototypes but now I discover several differences between the real components (opamps) and the simulations (i tried a 5532 from internet and the 741 from Texas and both showed differences, one in amplitude and the other in phase).
I´m a bit stuck and don´t know how to face this challenge. I already asked in facebook groups, linekdin and here at university, but I´m not clear about how to fix simulation issues and how to organize the design process. This is my first electronics design job, so any help will be appreciated.
Relevant answer
Answer
In the beginning let us confine our study on the simplest op amp circuit, which is an inverting op amp amplifier with resistive feed back.The phase shift of such amplifiers has single pole with a phase shift of -45 degrees at the - 3dB point. So in order to limit the phase shift you have to operate your amplifier in the region of the flat frequency response.
The gain can be expressed by A= A0/ (1+ jw/wc),
Where Ao is the gain at zero frequency, w is the frequency of the applied signal and wc is the cut off frequency. The phase of the gain A, phi= - tan^-1 w/wc, for w/wc=1, phi will be -45, phase lag by 45 degrees.
If we want to limit the phase delay of the amplifier to a specific value say phil: phi limit, then as phil is very small, one can approximate the phse relation ship as:
phil= - wl/wc,
Then one can gat wl= phil x wc, and fl= phil fc
fl will be the maximum input frequency, phil is the allowed phas delay, and fc is the required cut off frequency of the amplifier.  If phil= 5 degrees= .0 8726 rad, fl= 10 kHz,
Then fc= 114.6 kHz.
This example shows how far cut off frequency is much greater than the audio signal frequency. 
The question now what is the required gain of the amplifier A0 of the amplifier,
Say A0=10,
Then the minimum required gain bandwidth product of the op amp FT= greater than 114.6x10= 1146 kHz= 1.1 Mhz.So, the op amp 741 can just provide the required function with upper bound given above, that the gain of the amplifier must not be greater than 10.
Till now it is okay? not just so, because the amplifier has this bandwidth for small signals in the millivolt range. As at large signal the op amp speed is limited by its slow rate.  Since your signal is large then you have to use op amps with very high slew rate dV/dt, 
For a sinusoidal wave with  max dV/dt= Vsm wl= 1Vx 2 pi 114.6 k=720 k V/s, So you an amplifier with a slew rate not less than 1 V/us if your amplitude is limited to 1V.  If you want to amplify signals with higher amplitude you have to scale your slew rate.
Please you can build your circuit on the light of my analysis in this post. You problem will be solved.

Relevant answer
Answer
You could trigger them with the pulse generator. It's important you trigger the correct sequence of the thyristors. For example if you have a three phase system with 0, -120 and -240 degrees you have to trigger in this sequence to obtain the same behavior as diode bridges (first the top left one, second the right bottom, then the top middle, then the left bottom, then the top right and last the bottom middle). The times you trigger them you should calculate based on the times the sine waves of two phases match in one point. If you accomplish this, you can add different delays to the whole bridge to control the DC link

From the literature, I know that ZrO2 have different structures at different temperatures i.e. monoclinic (m) at room temperature (RT), tetragonal (t) at 1478 K and cubic (c) at 2650 K. I want to calculate the energy of all the three phases (m, t, c) at above mentioned temperatures i.e. at RT, 1478 K and 2650 K. My expectation is that (m) phase should have the lowest energy at RT among the three, (t) phase should have the lowest energy at 1478K among the three and (c) phase should have the lowest energy at 2650 K among the three. How should I go on with such simulations in LAMMPS? Which thermostat to use and how to define temperatures that I wish?
Relevant answer
Please see Song and Hoyt, Acta Mater. 60 (2012) 4328-4335. 
In order to find out the most stable phase, you need to find out the Gibbs energy (or practically, the Gibbs energy difference with respect to some reference phase). You can see in the above cited paper that they have used NPT (zero external pressure) ensemble with liquid as the reference phase. (The problem with NVT could be that you would be sampling the systems at different pressures and they could be under stress, at times, unless the right volume is used). But as commented by Tao Wang, it is less likely that one potential can cover all the phases in question. If if does, the transitions temperatures (obtained from the potential) may most likely be different from what you expect. So, it is better to get the free energy differences as a function of temperature with crossed fingers. Again, in the above referenced paper on Fe, you would find that the potential is not able to show the bcc-fcc-bcc transitions. So the results shouldn't be treated as surprising.

I’m facing some challenges in calculating Standard Means Difference. Student A obtained zeros in all baseline sessions. I subtracted the mean of the baseline phase (M = 0) from the mean of the intervention phase (M= 13.41) and then divided by standard deviation of baseline (SD = 0). The results will be error.
Any thoughts?
Relevant answer
Answer
The correct formula for Standard mean difference is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strictly_standardized_mean_difference
If standard deviation of the intervention phase is not 0, the result will be fine.
Best wishes.

I am simulating the effect of an grid voltage amplitude imbalance on a PLL structure. However, I want to know if an amplitude imbalance (e.g. a sag in phase A), must be accompanied by a phase imbalance as well. Is it a realistic to simulate amplitude imbalance while the phase remains the same?
Relevant answer
Answer
Phase to ground is most likely to start failing on long transmission lines. Wet weather, old insulation, interference from animals mostly birds squirrels and snakes. ice accumulation, lost kites, defective crop dusting, unauthorized access, and any number of other causes can lead to amplitude imbalance.
Sometimes imbalance is deliberate and sanctioned by the power company. Example when a small to moderate size single phase user is fed from one phase of a three phase system. This is a phase to phase imbalance usually of small extent, but requiring management.

Using reductive perturbation technique we have derived the KdV equation and there we are getting the phase velocity 'u' as a complex number under some conditions. In that case, what can we conclude?
Relevant answer
Answer
If there is a real part there will be propagation.  If there is no real part the wave is evanescent, it only stores energy each half-cycle.  The imaginary part describes reduction in strength with distance, usually called attenuation.  Damping usually refers to reduction in size with time (omega having an imaginary part).

If you can't find any of these, you can also use alpha-Si3N4 as the basic structure (alpha is the one with space group P31c). You will have to adjust the lattice parameters by a bit. Ca will enter the structure on the 2b-site with a z of around 0.24 depending on the exact composition.

If you want to convert liquid glycerol into gaseous glycerol you have 3 options: increase temperature, decrease pressure, and both simultaneously.
If you are trying to produce gaseous non-glycerol products from glycerine, you will need to crack it chemically. I am not aware of any efficient gassification reactions with glycerol other than combustion, but it could be an interesting research direction...

Hello,
I am working on a piping network consisting of one inlet and two outlets. I am introducing air(primary phase) and water (secondary phase) into this network and I am interested in finding out the mass flow rate of each phase through each outlet. For this purpose I am using Eulerian multiphase model in Ansys Fluent. The problem I am facing is, the mass of each phase coming out of the two outlets is actually greater then the mass introduced at the inlet. 
Can anyone help me with this ? Thanks
Relevant answer
Answer
Hello Ahmed,
Do you use the fully-resolved Euer-Euler model (mass and momentum equations for each of the phases) or the Euler mixture model in ANSYS Fluent? Assuming the first, you may want to check your solver settings, in particular the descretization schemes - second order schemes may be preferrable for the mass conservation, even though they show less convergence. In previous works, I got good results with the QUICK scheme for the volume fraction and momentum, even though the First-Order-Upwind is set by default. Which convergence criteria did you define (usually the absolute criteria for the residuals is set to 0.001)? This may be not sufficient to meet mass conservation in your system. Also, do you achieve these criteria at all? If not, you may want to modify the relaxation factors - in my own cases the default settings were tyically too high (I often reduced the factors for density, body forces, momentum and turbulence by a factor of 0.8 compared to the default - this usually increases the number of iterations but can improve the convergence).
Last but not least (and I should have asked this first): do you use a transient or steady-state calculation? I haven't seen ANY steady-state multiphase case that gave correct results and mass conservation in a multi-phase simulation. Of course, then the defined time step size can also have an influence on your results - just make sure that the time step size is small enough, but ensure that the simulation doesn't run forever...
Hope this helps.

Stephan

Answer
Semiconductor phase shifters, based primarily on GaAs, but also on SiGe and InP, have enjoyed steady progress for the past two decades. Their small size and relatively low power consumption  compared to ferrite devices has created new insertion opportunities. Many possible circuit topologies, using diode or FET switches in various configurations, exist.

The ripple phase is a 2D pattern with in and out-of-plane reflection in the SAXS regime. The gel phase is a 1D pattern in the SAXS regime. A nice paper showing this on aligned lipids is:

Mixture of metals that are not in single phase, but a mixture of two phases of individual metals themselves are also termed as alloys at many places. This creates confusion regarding definition of alloys. Could anyone please give clarity on this?
Relevant answer
Answer
When two elements follow Hume-Rothery rules a single phase of the two elements in the solid state and the alloy is termed isomorphous alloy. This is the so-called ideal system. Departures from ideal systems occur in most cases either due to increased liquid clustering or solid clustering. The outcome could be eutectic, monotectic, peritectic and so on. In every case however, it is a (binary) alloy. See the text book by Schaffer, Saxena,et all for full details.

For a 12 pulse diode rectifier is it necessary a transformer for a phase shift of 30 degrees. What is the difference between the Y/Y/D and D/Y/D transformers for 12-pulse rectifier?
Relevant answer
Answer
The reason why Y/Y transformers are normally not used is that the neutral is not available at the primary side. Any zero sequence component experiences a high impedance.The reason is that the field pattern goes from yoke to yoke and this is a really much higher leakage impedance compared to concentric windings in normal field patterns.
One can avoid third harmonic and other zero sequence problems while using YZ configurations as well. It is rarely used, as windings from two legs are put in series and one has about 15% less voltage for the same resistance.
I used in previous times YY transformers for rectifiers with a low voltage output, with star point connected and 6 diodes to the +. It allows having 120° current blocks instead of 60°, without using a bridge. A third harmonic voltage appears on the neutral.

I want to measure XRD on 1T-MoS2 phase, but sinceit is unstable phase I am wondering whether it will transform into stable 2H-MoS2 phase after measurement. 
Relevant answer
Answer
Although many phases are metastable phases, certain energy barriers will block their transformation unless the systems are stimulated by external forces, such as pressure, temperature and deformation. So far there is no report, to my best knowledge, that X-ray diffraction can stimulate such phase changes. X-ray may have photoelectric effects, and any such weak interaction with electron systems will not induce phase changes.

But this phase is not available in any of the mobility databases. Can anyone suggest me where I can find the mobility data for this phase, or is it possible to proceed further without it?

Answer
It depends completely on the problem. If diffusion through the al12mg17_a12 phase is rate determining, then you shouldn't. If it isn't, or not to any large degree, then there are some options: assume that you can ignore the diffusion through the phase or find estimates of tracer/impurity diffusivities in the literature and use those.

Trying to install Heterodyne Interferometry.
Relevant answer
Answer
I am not sure I did understand the question. A lock-in amplifier should lock the reference frequency straightforwardly. The ref frequency can either be set internally or provided externally by a modulator that is also modulating the input signal. Phase locking is usually done by changing the phase until the amplified signal is minimum or even zero (that is searching the quadrature phase of the ref with respect to the input) and then adding 90° phase shift. Almost all lock-in amplifiers all have the Auto-phase option.

A simple, inexpensive and rapid analytical approach for the determination of organic volatile impurities in pharmaceutical drug substances is developed, where sample preparation step was conducted using solid phase microextraction (SPME), followed by a fast GC separation. With an extraction time between 3 and 5 min and separation of 13 solvents in less than 3 min employing fast temperature programming using resistively heated column, organic volatile impurities can be analyzed within a total analysis time of 6–9 min. Various SPME phases were evaluated towards sensitivity and selectivity for the extraction of 13 commonly found solvents in drug substances dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide and water. A 2-cm Carboxen/polydimethyl siloxane/divinylbenzene (Carboxen/PDMS/DVB) phase and a 65-μm DVB/PDMS phase showed better sensitivity towards these solvents when extracted from organic and aqueous matrix in comparison with the sensitivity obtained with direct injection approach. Extraction parameters such as extraction time, extraction stir rate, etc. are discussed. %RSD of peak area of replicate extraction was between 2 and 10% when 100 μm PDMS was used for extracting solvents from aqueous matrix. When DVB/PDMS fiber was evaluated for precision, %RSD of peak area from replicate extractions of solvents from organic matrix was between 2 and 8%. One-hundred micrometer PDMS showed excellent linearity from 10 to 500 μg/ml for analytes extracted from water solutions. On the other hand, DVB/PDMS phase showed better linearity than Carboxen/PDMS/DVB fiber when it was used to extract analytes in the concentration range of 10–5000 μg/ml from organic matrix.

As you is working with a one- way coupling approach, the particles does not  have influence on the fluid flow field as you postulated. And based on this, the flow field of fluid is 'blind' regarding the particles velocities distribution. And so do doing, the pressure drop is function  of the velocity field of the fluid with a weak coupling with the volume fraction of dust - considering a  low void fraction. Of course, the  mixture properties can be accounted for as pointed out by Mishra and Chernyshev.
