Numerical calculations based on the full potential muffin-tin orbitals method (FP-LMTO) within the local density approximation (LDA) and the local spin-density approximation (LSDA) to investigate the structural, electronic and thermodynamic properties of filled skutterudite EuFe4Sb12 are presented. The electronic band structure and density of states profiles prove that this material is a conductor. The present investigation is also extended to the elastic constants, such as the bulk modulus B, anisotropy factor A, shear modulus G, young's modulus E, Poisson's ratio ν, and the B/G ratio with pressure in the range of 0–40 GPa. The sound velocities and Debye temperatures are also predicted from the above constants. The variations of the primitive cell volume, expansion coefficient α, bulk modulus B, heat capacity (Cp and Cv), Debye temperature θD, Helmholtz free energy A, Gibbs free energy G, entropy S, and internal energy U with pressure and temperature in the range 0–3000 K are calculated successfully. 相似文献
The effect of pressure (150, 250 and 350?MPa), ramp rate (200, 400 and 600?MPa/min) and holding time (3, 6 and 9?min) on the quality indices (dependent variable) of Indian white prawn (Fenneropenaeus indicus) was optimized using response surface methodology. Box–Behnken response surface design was used with 15 runs. Second-order response surface model was fitted to the experimental data and the model adequacy was measured by R2 value. The linear and quadratic effect of pressure, ramp rate and holding time was significant for tri-methylamine, total volatile base nitrogen and total plate count. Based on the ridge analysis and response surface plots, the optimum combination obtained was 250?MPa pressure, 400?MPa/min ramp rate and 6?min holding time for high pressure (HP) processing of Indian white prawn. Validation of the experiment indicated that the developed model was appropriate to predict quality indices in Indian white prawn processed by HP processing. 相似文献

The chaotic dynamics of directly modulated semiconductor lasers with delayed optoelectronic feedback is studied numerically.
The effects of positive and negative delayed optoelectronic feedback in producing chaotic outputs from such lasers with nonlinear
gain reduction in its optimum value range is investigated using bifurcation diagrams. The results are confirmed by calculating
the Lyapunov exponents. A negative delayed optoelectronic feedback configuration is found to be more effective in inducing
chaotic dynamics to such systems with nonlinear gain reduction factor in the practical value range.

Summary: Spherical micelles have been formed by mixing, in DMF, a poly(styrene)‐block‐poly(2‐vinylpyridine)‐block‐poly(ethylene oxide) (PS‐block‐P2VP‐block‐PEO) triblock copolymer with either poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) or a tapered triblock copolymer consisting of a PAA central block and PEO macromonomer‐based outer blocks. Noncovalent interactions between PAA and P2VP result in the micellar core while the outer corona contains both PS and PEO chains. Segregation of the coronal chains is observed when the tapered copolymer is used.
Inclusion of comb‐like chains with short PEO teeth in the corona triggers the nanophase segregation of PS and PEO as illustrated here (PS = polystyrene; PEO = poly(ethylene oxide)). 相似文献
Oxidation of three lower oxyacids of phosphorus, viz. phosphinic, phenylphosphinic and phosphorous acids by pyridinium hydrobromide
perbromide (PHPB), is first-order with respect to both oxyacid and PHPB. There is no effect on addition of acylonitrile and pyridinium bromide.
On oxidation, deuterated phosphinic and phosphorous acids exhibit substantial kinetic isotope effects. The effect of solvent
composition on reaction rate indicates that the transition state is more polar than the reactants. Reaction rates were determined
at different temperatures and the activation parameters calculated. Alternative mechanisms, involving the two tautomeric forms
of the oxyacid, have been formulated and it has been concluded that the reaction proceeds through the pentacoordinated tautomer.
Transfer of a hydride ion from the oxyacid to PHPB, in the rate-determining step, has been proposed. 相似文献
Cross-sections for the reactions with product nuclei24Na,22Na,68Ga and67Ga were investigated over the energy range of 30 to 75 MeV for alpha particle induced reactions on natural aluminium and copper,
using stacked-foil activation technique. The measured excitation functions were analysed with special reference to their suitability
for monitoring beam energy and intensity. The experimental results were compared with the predictions of hybrid model of Blann.
The assumption of initial exciton numbern0=4(4p0h) best satisfies the measured excitation functions in the present work. 相似文献
Heterocyclic base adducts of salicylaldehyde N(4)- cyclohexylthiosemicarbazone(H2L) copper(II) complexes have been synthesized
and characterized. I.r., electronic and e.s.r. spectra of the complexes, as well as i.r., electronic and 1H- and 13C-n.m.r.
spectra of the thiosemicarbazone have been obtained. Based on e.s.r. studies, all possible parameters have been calculated.
The g values, calculated for all the complexes in frozen solution, indicate the presence of the unpaired electron in the dx2−y2
orbital. The metal–ligand bonding parameters evaluated showed strong in-plane σ- and in-plane π-bonding. The magnetic and
spectroscopic data indicate a square-planar geometry for the four-coordinate and a distorted square-pyramidal structure for
the five-coordinate complexes. From cyclic voltammetric data quasireversible copper(II)/copper(I) couples are observed for
the complexes.
