Parametric model order reduction of damped mechanical systems via the block Arnoldi process

This paper proposes a block Arnoldi method for parameterized model order reduction. This method works when design parameters have only low-rank impacts on the system matrix. The method preserves all design parameters in the reduced model and is easy to implement. Numerical results show that the block Arnoldi process outperforms some existing methods up to a factor of ten.     

Photophysical Properties of Sol–gel derived Luminescent Silicone Hybrids Synthesized via Facile Amino‐Ene Reaction

Novel luminescent silicone hybrids (LSHs) containing lanthanide ions were prepared via different sol–gel processes. The precursor, dimethyl ester‐functionalized silane, was synthesized via a facile amino‐ene reaction. The coordinated assembly of the ester ligands and lanthanide ions (Eu³⁺, Tb³⁺ and Dy³⁺) occurred. The ester ligands were immobilized onto the Si‐O network backbone during the preparation of the silicone hybrid materials. The particle size can be controlled to ca 50 nm by adjusting the solvent ratio. The obtained materials were characterized by Fourier transform infrared, ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), ¹³C NMR, ²⁸Si NMR, X‐ray diffraction, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, high‐resolution scanning electronic microscopy and luminescent (excitation and emission) spectroscopy. The coordination state and photophysical performance of the compounds were studied in detail. The terbium‐ and europium‐containing materials show sharp green and red emissions, respectively, which indicate that efficient intramolecular energy transfer took place in these LSHs.     

Time-dependent harmonic oscillator in a magnetic field and an electric field on the non-commutative plane

In the non-commutative space, wave functions and geometric phases are derived for the time-dependent harmonic oscillator in external time-dependent magnetic and electric field. Explicit forms of the coherent states are also given, which are not the minimum uncertainty states for the coordinates and momenta.     

Lingshuine,an Unexpected Passerini Product from the Hainan Sponge Axinyssa variabilis

Lingshuine ( 1 ), a novel sesquiterpene amide, along with three known N‐containing compounds, 2 – 4 , have been isolated from the Hainan sponge Axinyssa variabilis. The structure of 1 was elucidated by detailed analysis of the spectroscopic data and by chemical methods. Lingshuine represents the first example of a Passerini product formed during the isolation process.     

An on-line method for determining ATPase bioactivity and its application to human umbilical vein endothelial cell membrane

Based on the determination of inorganic phosphate (the product of ATP dephosphorylation by ATPase), a method for on-line determination of bioactivity of ATPase on cell membrane is presented, in which on-line sampling of cell membrane and separation of inorganic phosphate is employed in a flow injection system. The method has been successfully applied to the investigation of variation of ATPase from human umbilical vein endothelial cell membrane; the results show that ATPase activity decreases with elapsed time studied, which may supply important information for the pertinent studies on cell membrane enzymes bioactivity.
