On Translation and Affine Systems Spanning L1(ℝ)

We show that the discrete translation parameter sets Λ ⊂ ℝ for which some φ ∈ L¹(ℝ) exists such that the translates φ(x − λ), λ ∈ Λ, span L¹(ℝ) are exactly the uniqueness sets for certain quasianalytic classes, and give explicit constructions of such generators φ. We also consider a similar situation for affine systems of the type φ(μx − λ), μ ∈ Γ, λ ∈ Λ.     

Crystal and molecular structure of tris(3,3,4,4-tetramethyl- 3,4-dihydrodiazete)bis(tricarbonylchromium), (N2C2Me4)3[Cr(CO)3]2

Crystals of C₂₄H₃₆N₆O₆Cr₂ are monoclinic, a 15.380(3), b 13.965(2), c 14.459(3) Å, β 92.18(1)°; Z = 4; space group P2₁ with two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The crystal structure was determined from X-ray diffractometer data by direct methods and refined by least-squares methods to R = 0.066 for 2430 independent observed reflections. It consists of discrete molecules, in which each Cr atom is surrounded by three cis carbonyl groups and three cis nitrogen atoms of three 3,3,4,4-tetramethyl-1,2-diazetine ligands, in a deformed octahedral coordination. There is no evidence of intramolecular Cr ? Cr interaction.     

Ab initio calculations of electron-spin magnetic moments for Li,Be and B hydrides inX 2∑+ states

Electron-spin magnetic moments, in the form ofg-shifts, have been computed at the ROHF level for theX ²∑⁺ states of LiH⁺, BeH²⁺, LiH^?, BeH and BH⁺. A perturbative approach, complete to second-order in appropriate Breit-Pauli operators, has been used. Retention of two-centre integrals has proven vital. First-order terms are important, especially in describing the negativeg _∥ shifts observed experimentally in²∑⁺ molecules. The relativistic mass correction dominates in first-order, except for LiH^? where the two-electron spin-Zeeman gauge correction supersedes. Second-order terms contribute negatively, and only to the Δg _⊥ component. Along the isoelectronic series LiH^? → BeH → BH⁺, the magnitude of Δg _⊥ increases due to the dependence of spin-orbit coupling on nuclear charge. The relation ofg-shifts to electronic structure and bonding is explored.

Green solvent approach for printable large deformation thermoplastic elastomer based piezoresistive sensors and their suitability for biomedical applications

Composites based on biocompatible thermoplastic elastomer styrene‐ethylene/butylene‐styrene (SEBS) as matrix and multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) as nanofillers show excellent mechanical and piezoresistive properties from low to large deformations. The MWCNT/SEBS composites have been prepared following a green solvent approach, to extend their range of applicability to biomedical applications. The obtained composites with 2, 4, and 5 wt % MWCNT content provide suitable piezoresistive response up to 80% deformation with a piezoresistive sensibility near 2.7, depending on the applied strain and MWCNT content. Composite sensors were also developed by spray and screen printing and integrated with an electronic data acquisition system with RF communication. The possibility to accurately control the composites properties and performance by varying MWCNT content, viscosity, and mechanical properties of the polymer matrix, shows the large potential of the system for the development of large deformation printable piezoresistive sensors. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
