Competition of methyltrioxorhenium (MTO) with osmium tetroxide (OsO4) for pyridines binding: Ligand binding assay

Competition of methyltrioxorhenium (MTO) with osmium tetroxide (OsO₄) toward L = pyridine and its derivatives, based on the equilibrium constant for the reaction OsO₄·L + MTO = MTO·L + OsO₄, has been measured. A successful correlation of log K_eq with the Hammett σ constants of the substituents on the ligands was realized. A negative reaction constant, obtained for the reactions, shows that a more positive charge expands on the pyridine nitrogen in the complex MTO·L as compared with the complex OsO₄·L. So, the rhenium center acts as a better electron acceptor than osmium center. The thermodynamic parameters have been obtained and an excellent linear relationship was observed between the enthalpy and entropy of the reactions.     

Preservation of stability properties near fixed points of linear Hamiltonian systems by symplectic integrators

Based on reasonable testing model problems, we study the preservation by symplectic Runge-Kutta method (SRK) and symplectic partitioned Runge-Kutta method (SPRK) of structures for fixed points of linear Hamiltonian systems. The structure-preservation region provides a practical criterion for choosing step-size in symplectic computation. Examples are given to justify the investigation.     

Mathematical modeling on the effect of equivalence ratio in emission characteristics of compression ignition engine with hydrogen substitution

The investigation presented in this paper concerns on the computational simulation of emissions characteristics in compression ignition engine with hydrogen substitution. Combustion process has been modeled based on Equilibrium Constants Method (ECM) with MATLAB program to calculate the mole fractions of 18 combustion products when hydrogen is burnt along with diesel fuel at variable equivalence ratios. It can be observed that hydrogen substitution causes significant increase in NH₃, H₂, atom H emissions during rich combustion and OH, NO₂, HNO₃ emissions during lean combustion. As the equivalence ratio increases during rich combustion, mole fractions of HCN, CH₄, CO and atom C decreases with increment of hydrogen substitution. N₂, atom N and CO₂ emissions decrease whereas no significant changes in O₂, NO, O₃ and atom O emissions throughout all equivalence ratios as hydrogen is added to the combustion.     

Convergence analysis for finite family of relatively quasi nonexpansive mappings and systems of equilibrium problems

In this paper, a new iterative scheme by hybrid method is constructed. Strong convergence of the scheme to a common element of the set of common fixed points of finite family of relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings and set of common solutions of a system of equilibrium problems in a uniformly convex and uniformly smooth real Banach space is proved using the properties of generalized f-projection operator. Our results extend important recent results.     

Limit cycles and invariant cylinders for a class of continuous and discontinuous vector field in dimention 2n

The subject of this paper concerns with the bifurcation of limit cycles and invariant cylinders from a global center of a linear differential system in dimension 2n perturbed inside a class of continuous and discontinuous piecewise linear differential systems. Our main results show that at most one limit cycle and at most one invariant cylinder can bifurcate using the expansion of the displacement function up to first order with respect to a small parameter. This upper bound is reached. For proving these results we use the averaging theory in a form where the differentiability of the system is not needed.     

Global Existence of the Equilibrium Diffusion Model in Radiative Hydrodynamics

This paper is devoted to the analysis of the Cauchy problem for a system of PDEs arising in radiative hydrodynamics. This system, which comes from the so-called equilibrium diffusion regime, is a variant of the usual Euler equations, where the energy and pressure functionals are modified to take into account the effect of radiation and the energy balance containing a nonlinear diffusion term acting on the temperature. The problem is studied in the multi-dimensional framework. The authors identify the existence of a strictly convex entropy and a stability property of the system, and check that the Kawashima-Shizuta condition holds. Then, based on these structure properties, the well-posedness close to a constant state can be proved by using fine energy estimates. The asymptotic decay of the solutions are also investigated.

Multiplicity and Stability of Equilibrium States of Three-Dimensional Nonlinear System

The multiplicity and stability of the equilibrium states of a three-dimensional differential system with initial conditions and three cross terms are studied in this paper. The existence and multiplicity of equilibrium states are given under the different qualifications of parameters. Besides, the local stability of the equilibrium state is shown by analyzing the eigenfunction of the Jacobi matrix. The global stability of the equilibrium state is obtained by constructing the Lyapunov function. Furthermore, the numerical simulation intuitively reflected the relationship of variables and verified the correctness of theoretical analysis.
