    "Birds of a feather is the fascinating autobiography of Brig. Gen. Harold W. Bowman, USAF, retired. Bowman served 32 years in the Air Force, beginning as a pilot in the fledgling Army Air Corps. He was a commander of the 401st Bomb Group, which flew B-17 bombing missions out of Deenethorpe, England during WWII"--P. [4] of cove

    Blending of polyethylene materials for pipe applications

    No full text
    This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.Melt blending of polyethylene, in particularly HDPE and LLDPE, have been shown to be a major success, especially in the film markets. In this thesis studies are reported on the stress rupture performance of pipes produced from selected polyethylene materials blended to a chosen MDPE pipe grade. The pipes were tested, notched or unnotched, at a single temperature of 80oC and at internal pressures designed to induce slit-mode failure. Results showed the simple concept of increasing the stress rupture performance of a pipe material by the addition of a higher molecular weight polymer was invalidated when applied to the blends system used in these studies. However molecular weight does have an influence to some degree as was illustrated by the addition of a very low molecular weight material, which produced the poorest stress rupture properties of the additives used. Charaterization techniques, including Differential Scanning Calorimetry and Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Analysis, showed good compatibility of the blends at all addition levels studied, illustrating that there was no seperation of the polyethylene phases. Fracture analysis of pipe failures showed variations between the blends, except for a MDPE additive which had similar molecular characteristics to the base resin. Some of the blends fracture surfaces were found to vary in fibre height and distribution from the bore region to the outside of the pipe. On the morphological front spherulites from pipe samples were found to be a poor indication of stress rupture behaviour. Pipe blends were produced which had fine/featureless morphologies but whose 80oC stress rupture behaviour was found to be good and poor in comparison to the control MDPE pipe resin which had a spherulitic structure much larger than all the blends studied. Models presented here infer that a number of mechanisms may be operating in producing these changes in stress rupture properties. One may be due to a dilution of a polyethylene system by materials of varying molecular weight and molecular weight distributions. This was evident in MDPE-AlMDPE-P blends (MDPE-P being a high molecular weight, low branch length additive), where the stress rupture performance initially decreased and then increased after addition levels of 10wt%. The main mechanisms for this system was postulated to be the initial dilution of octene branching levels within the MDPE-A blend causing a reduction in the ability of the branches to sterically hinder crack propagation under stress, to one of chain entanglement after sufficient levels of the additive was present in the blend to contribute to increasing the stress rupture behaviour. It was found that good blending can be produced using materials with similar branching types and distributions (especially in the high molecular weight tail), similar molecular weights and distributions and comparable crystallization temperatures.This study is funded by the Science and Engineering Research Council and DuPont UK Ltd

    "Encystation": Containment and Control in Israeli Ideology and Practice

    No full text
    The radical closure of Gaza serves here as an extreme example of a process of isolation and immiseration of national enemies that is deeply rooted in Israeli ideology and practices of state formation. I use encystation to reveal the dual meaning of the term—that of radical isolation of diseased elements and that of protecting a fetus within a womb—and to show how the two meanings connect with respective Israeli policies toward Palestinians and Jews. I suggest in closing that the Oslo Accords have put in place mechanisms for the future imposition on West Bank Palestinians of the same containment currently afflicting Gaz
