Derivation of fluorine-containing pyridine dicarboxylates. II. Elaboration at the 4-position

In response to the bio-activity found in fluorine-containing 4-alkyl-3, 5-pyridinedicarboxylates, a series of novel 4-substituted derivatives, not directly available by Hantzsch sequences, were prepared. Starting 4-alkylpyridines, 1 , were converted via enamine 2 to materials 3–8 . Derivatives 9–16 in turn were derived from aldehyde 3 , while acid derivatives 28–36 were prepared from 14 . Addition of oxygen, sulfur, and carbenoids effected conversion of 4-allylpyridine 16 to epoxy and cyclopropyl derivative 16–22 . A number of neighboring group effects were noted, including those forming the fused-ring systems 23-27 .     

固态继电器为电动汽车电池监测提供便利

电动汽车常被喻作“归来的孩子”，因为这项技术在多年前进入市场后便一直沉寂，直至最近才再次活跃起来。其实，电动汽车早于1835年首次于美国出现，到1899年，纽约市接近90％的出租车都是由电力驱动。然而，当电力启动器和内燃机变得完善时，电动汽车的使用就迅速衰退。随着如今对环境保护的关注，由燃烧碳氢化合物造成的污染，加之汽油成本高升的影响，再次     

Tile-boundary artifact reduction using odd tile size and the low-pass first convention.

It is well known that tile-boundary artifacts occur in wavelet-based lossy image coding. However, until now, their cause has not been understood well. In this paper, we show that boundary artifacts are an inescapable consequence of the usual methods used to choose tile size and the type of symmetric extension employed in a wavelet-based image decomposition system. This paper presents a novel method for reducing these tile-boundary artifacts. The method employs odd tile sizes (2N + 1 samples) rather than the conventional even tile sizes (2N samples). It is shown that, for the same bit rate, an image compressed using an odd tile length low-pass first (OTLPF) convention has significantly less boundary artifacts than an image compressed using even tile sizes. The OTLPF convention can also be incorporated into the JPEG 2000 image compression algorithm using extensions defined in Part 2 of this standard.     

cos πρ theorems for δ-subharmonic functions

For ϕ a δ-subharmonic function, sharp results are obtained that connectA(r, ϕ), B(r, ϕ) andT(r, ϕ), whereA(r, ϕ)=inf_|z|=r ϕ(z),B(r, ϕ)=sup_|z|=r ϕ(z), andT(r, ϕ) is the Nevanlinna characteristics.     

程控电流源无需电源支持

工程实验室通常都配有各种电源设备、伏特计、函数信号发生器和示波器。然而．许多这样的工程实验室却缺少电流源。这令人感到非常遗憾，因为电流源有助于生成I-V（电流对电压）曲线，它能对电池进行充放电操作，对电源设备预加负荷，并可实现许多其他的应用。     

2‐Amino‐4‐chloro‐6‐[N‐methyl‐N‐(4‐methylphenyl)amino]pyrimidine: formation versus fragmentation of hydrogen‐bonded chains of edge‐fused R22(8) rings in 4,6‐disubstituted 2‐aminopyrimidines

Molecules of the title compound, C₁₂H₁₃ClN₄, are linked by two independent N—H...N hydrogen bonds into a chain of edge‐fused R₂²(8) rings. The significance of this study lies in its attempt to rationalize the patterns of supramolecular aggregation in the title compound and in a range of analogous 4,6‐disubstituted 2‐aminopyrimidines.     

完善公司权力交班机制帮助退休领导人大方让权

Reference values for drag and lift of a two‐dimensional time‐dependent flow around a cylinder

This paper presents a numerical study of a two‐dimensional time‐dependent flow around a cylinder. Its main objective is to provide accurate reference values for the maximal drag and lift coefficient at the cylinder and for the pressure difference between the front and the back of the cylinder at the final time. In addition, the accuracy of these values obtained with different time stepping schemes and different finite element methods is studied. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

High‐order accurate numerical solutions of incompressible flows with the artificial compressibility method

A high‐order accurate, finite‐difference method for the numerical solution of incompressible flows is presented. This method is based on the artificial compressibility formulation of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. Fourth‐ or sixth‐order accurate discretizations of the metric terms and the convective fluxes are obtained using compact, centred schemes. The viscous terms are also discretized using fourth‐order accurate, centred finite differences. Implicit time marching is performed for both steady‐state and time‐accurate numerical solutions. High‐order, spectral‐type, low‐pass, compact filters are used to regularize the numerical solution and remove spurious modes arising from unresolved scales, non‐linearities, and inaccuracies in the application of boundary conditions. The accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method is demonstrated for test problems. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
