Investigation of the equality constraint effect on the reduction of the rotational ambiguity in three-component system using a novel grid search method

The obtained results by soft modeling multivariate curve resolution methods often are not unique and are questionable because of rotational ambiguity. It means a range of feasible solutions equally fit experimental data and fulfill the constraints. Regarding to chemometric literature, a survey of useful constraints for the reduction of the rotational ambiguity is a big challenge for chemometrician. It is worth to study the effects of applying constraints on the reduction of rotational ambiguity, since it can help us to choose the useful constraints in order to impose in multivariate curve resolution methods for analyzing data sets. In this work, we have investigated the effect of equality constraint on decreasing of the rotational ambiguity. For calculation of all feasible solutions corresponding with known spectrum, a novel systematic grid search method based on Species-based Particle Swarm Optimization is proposed in a three-component system.     

Synthesis of broadband and flat parametric gain by idler loss in optical fiber

Besides dispersion engineering, idler-band distributed fiber loss provides a new synthesis freedom to flatten and broaden the gain spectrum for a fiber-optic parametric amplifier. This interesting phenomenon is based on the fact that the power balance between signal and idler is broken by idler loss, which changes the power conversion process in four-wave-mixing. The pump-to-signal conversion efficiency is kept unchanged in spite of the loss.     

MAGNESIUM HYDROGEN SULFATE POWDER CATALYZED STEREOSELECTIVE CONVERSION OF DIALKYL 2-(IMIDO-N -YL)-3-(TRIPHENYLPHOSPHORANYLIDENE)- BUTANEDIOATES TO ELECTRON-POOR (Z)-N -VINYLIMIDES IN SOLVENT-FREE CONDITIONS

Magnesium hydrogen sulfate powder was found to catalyze stereoselective conversion of dialkyl 2-(imido-N-yl)-3-(triphenylphosphorany-lidene)butanedioates to electron-poor (Z)-N-vinylimides in solvent-free conditions at 95°C 1 h in high conversions. Microwave also was found to catalyze the same reactions in the presence of magnesium hydrogen sulfate powder in solvent-free conditions in 3 min.

Rules for selecting the parameters of Oustaloup recursive approximation for the simulation of linear feedback systems containing PID controller

Oustaloup recursive approximation (ORA) is widely used to find a rational integer-order approximation for fractional-order integrators and differentiators of the form s^v, v ∈ (−1, 1). In this method the lower bound, the upper bound and the order of approximation should be determined beforehand, which is currently performed by trial and error and may be inefficient in some cases. The aim of this paper is to provide efficient rules for determining the suitable value of these parameters when a fractional-order PID controller is used in a stable linear feedback system. Two numerical examples are also presented to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed formulas.     

Rotating Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical lattice: Formulation of vortex configuration for the ground state

We consider a rotating Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical lattice in the regime in which the system Hamiltonian can be mapped onto a Josephson junction array. In an approximate scheme where the couplings are assumed uniform, the ground state energy is formulated in terms of the vortex configuration. Application of the method for the ladder case presented and the results are compared with Monte-Carlo method.     

Theoretical Studies on S-Phenyl-thiabenzene,S-Phenyl-thianaphthalene,and S-Phenyl-thiaanthracene

The molecular structures of S-phenyl-thiabenzene 1, S-phenyl-1-thianaphthalene 2, S-phenyl-2-thianaphthalene 3, and S-phenyl-9-thiaanthracene 4 are studied by ab initio calculations using HF as well as DFT methods at the 6–311+G? level of theory. The non-planar boat conformers of 1–4 with 6π electrons in the heterocyclic ring appear to be more stable than the corresponding planar conformers with 8π electrons in the ring. The activation energy for the inversion at the sulfur atom is compared for 1–4. Conformational flexibility of 1–4 is studied.
