Ground state solutions for Klein–Gordon–Maxwell system with steep potential well

In this paper, we study the following Klein–Gordon–Maxwell system $\left\{\begin{array}{c}-\Delta u+(\lambda a\left(x\right)+1)u-(2\omega +\varphi )\varphi u=f(x,u),\mathrm{in}{\mathbb{R}}^3,\hfill \\ -\Delta \varphi =-(\omega +\varphi )u^2,\mathrm{in}{\mathbb{R}}^3.\hfill \end{array}\right.$Using variational methods, we obtain the existence of ground state solutions under some appropriate assumptions on $a$ and $f$.     

Inhibition effect of butan-1-ol on the corrosion behavior of austenitic stainless steel (Type 304) in dilute sulfuric acid

The electrochemical behavior of austenitic stainless steel (Type 304) in 3 M sulfuric acid with 3.5% recrystallized sodium chloride at specific concentrations of butan-1-ol was investigated with the aid of potentiodynamic polarization, open circuit measurement and weight loss technique. Butan-1-ol effectively inhibited the steel corrosion with a maximum inhibition efficiency of 78.7% from weight-loss analysis and 80.9% from potentiodynamic polarization test at highest concentration studied. Adsorption of the compound obeyed the Freundlich isotherm. Thermodynamic calculations reveal physiochemical interactions and spontaneous adsorption mechanism. Surface characterizations showed the absence of corrosion products and topographic modifications of the steel. Statistical analysis depicts the overwhelming influence and statistical significance of inhibitor concentration on the inhibition performance.     

Synthesis and Structures of Arene Ruthenium (II)–NHC Complexes: Efficient Catalytic α‐alkylation of ketones via Hydrogen Auto Transfer Reaction

A panel of six new arene Ru (II)‐NHC complexes 2a‐f , (NHC = 1,3‐diethyl‐(5,6‐dimethyl)benzimidazolin‐2‐ylidene 1a , 1,3‐dicyclohexylmethyl‐(5,6‐dimethyl)benzimidazolin‐2‐ylidene 1b and 1,3‐dibenzyl‐(5,6‐dimethyl)benzimidazolin‐2‐ylidene 1c ) were synthesized from the transmetallation reaction of Ag‐NHC with [(η⁶‐arene)RuCl₂]₂ and characterized. The ruthenium (II)‐NHC complexes 2a‐f were developed as effective catalysts for α‐alkylation of ketones and synthesis of bioactive quinoline using primary/amino alcohols as coupling partners respectively. The reactions were performed with 0.5 mol% catalyst load in 8 h under aerobic condition and the maximum yield was up to 96%. Besides, the different alkyl wingtips on NHC and arene moieties were studied to differentiate the catalytic robustness of the complexes in the transformations.     

On the dynamics of the Szekeres system

The gravitational Szekeres differential system is completely integrable with two rational first integrals and an additional analytical first integral. We describe the dynamics of the Szekeres system when one of these two rational first integrals is negative, showing that all the orbits come from the infinity of ${\mathbb{R}}^4$ and go to infinity.     

Nonintrusive data-based learning of a switched control heating system using POD,DMD and ANN

The aim of this work is to derive an accurate model of two-dimensional switched control heating system from data generated by a Finite Element solver. The nonintrusive approach should be able to capture both temperature fields, dynamics and the underlying switching control rule. To achieve this goal, the algorithm proposed in this paper will make use of three main ingredients: proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) and artificial neural networks (ANN). Some numerical results will be presented and compared to the high-fidelity numerical solutions to demonstrate the capability of the method to reproduce the dynamics.     

Characterization of intrinsic ultracontractivity for one dimensional Schrödinger operators

We consider a Schrödinger operator $L=?d^2/d{x}^2+V(x)$ on $\mathbb{R}$, where V is a real-valued measurable function, and give an explicit and simple characterization of intrinsic ultracontractivity (IU) of the Schrödinger semigroup generated by L for a wide class of potentials. By making use of it, we also give new examples of potentials for which the semigroups satisfy (IU) or non-(IU).     

Oxidative dehydrogenation of n-octane over a vanadium–magnesium oxide catalyst: Influence of the gas hourly space velocity

Oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of n-octane was carried out over a vanadium–magnesium oxide catalyst in a continuous flow fixed bed reactor. The catalyst was characterized by ICP–OES, powder XRD and SEM. The catalytic tests were carried out at different gas hourly space velocities (GHSVs), viz. 4000, 6000, 8000, and 10,000 h^?1. The best selectivity for octenes was obtained at the GHSV of 8000 h^?1, while that for C8 aromatics was attained at the GHSV of 6000 h^?1 at high temperatures (500 and 550 °C). The catalytic testing at the GHSV of 10,000 h^?1 showed the lowest activity, while that at the GHSV of 4000 h^?1 consistently showed the lowest ODH selectivity. Generally, the best ODH performance was obtained by the catalytic testing at the GHSVs of 6000 and 8000 h^?1. No phasic changes were observed after the catalytic testing.
