Water Clustering in Wheat Flour and Its Role in Water Diffusion: Observation Based on Sorption Isotherm by ZHAO Xuewei, WEI Xiaoxiao, GUO Yu, WANG Hongwei, ZHANG Hua

“…Based on the water adsorption and desorption isotherms of wheat flour at 20, 30 and 40 ℃, the water clustering properties were explored using the Park isotherm model, the Zimm-Lundberg method and the Brown method. Consistently, the results of the three methods suggested that water clustering occurred at high water activity (aw) levels, while the critical aw for clustering obtained from the three methods were only slightly different, ranging from 0.70 to 0.75, from 0.73 to 0.79 and from 0.56 to 0.68, respectively, which varied with temperature and the water sorption process. …”

Adhesive strength of butt joint having constant interface stress distribution without singular stress field by Kazuhiro ODA, Masahiro MIHARA, Nao-Aki NODA

“…In the case of failure due to a singular stress field, by calculating the region (process zone) where the average stress is the original strength of the butt joint, σB = 47.7 MPa, it is thought that failure will occur at a position rB = 14.7 μm from the adhesive end. This is almost equal to the fracture origin of a rectangular column butt joint reported in a previous study, and can be said to be a reliable evaluation method.…”
