Extremal k *-Cycle Resonant Hexagonal Chains

Denote by ^* _n the set of all k ^*-cycle resonant hexagonal chains with n hexagons. For any B _n ^* _n , let m(B _n ) and i(B _n ) be the numbers of matchings (=the Hosoya index) and the number of independent sets (=the Merrifield–Simmons index) of B _n , respectively. In this paper, we give a characterization of the k ^*-cycle resonant hexagonal chains, and show that for any B _n ^* _n , m(H _n )m(B _n ) and i(H _n )i(B _n ), where H _n is the helicene chain. Moreover, equalities hold only if B _n =H _n .     

Classification of oxide glasses: A polarizability approach

A classification of binary oxide glasses has been proposed taking into account the values obtained on their refractive index-based oxide ion polarizability α_O2−(n₀), optical basicity Λ(n₀), metallization criterion M(n₀), interaction parameter A(n₀), and ion's effective charges as well as O1s and metal binding energies determined by XPS. Four groups of oxide glasses have been established: glasses formed by two glass-forming acidic oxides; glasses formed by glass-forming acidic oxide and modifier's basic oxide; glasses formed by glass-forming acidic and conditional glass-forming basic oxide; glasses formed by two basic oxides. The role of electronic ion polarizability in chemical bonding of oxide glasses has been also estimated. Good agreement has been found with the previous results concerning classification of simple oxides. The results obtained probably provide good basis for prediction of type of bonding in oxide glasses on the basis of refractive index as well as for prediction of new nonlinear optical materials.

New stationary phase polarity parameters considering the electric intermolecular interactions in gas chromatographic column

Summary The possibility of evaluation of the parameters representing the dispersive solute-solvent interactions is presented. B_N and B_s values can be used to describe the liquid phase polarity and to predict the retention indices of alcohols when the model polyxyethylene glycol dialkyl ethers and their sulphur analogs are used as stationary phases. The possibility of the first ionization potentials estimation is also presented.     

Kubische Berechnung der Retentionsindices ohne Kenntnis der Totzeit tm

Zusammenfassung In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird eine Methode zur Retentionsindex-Bestimmung beschrieben, die von einem kubischen Zusammenhang zwischen Bruttoretentionszeit-Differenzen der Referenzhomologen und der Kohlenstoffzahl ausgeht. Hieraus ergeben sich direkt die Nettoretentionszeiten. Der Fehler der Totzeitbestimmung entfällt bei dieser Methode. Mit den so gewonnenen Nettoretentionszeiten erhält man über einen kubischen Zusammenhang zwischen 1g t_s=f(C) die Retentionsindices. Extrapolationen und Interpolationen sind über 300 Retentionsindexeinheiten mit einem mittleren Fehler von ±0,02 Retentionsindexeinheiten möglich. Das Verfahren bietet sich für eine automatische Berechnung der I-Werte mittels on-line-Datenverarbeitung an.

Cubic calculation of retention indices without determining the dead-time t_m

Summary The method for the calculation of retention indices described here is based on a third order relationship between the logarithm of differences of unadjusted retention times of homologues and the carbon number. From this adjusted retention times are directly calculated. A determination of the dead-time is not necessary thus avoiding the errors connected with this factor. A cubic equation for the logarithm of the adjusted retention time lg t_s as a function of carbon number C_n is used for the retention index calculation. Extrapolations and interpolations can be done over a range of 300 index units with an average deviation of ±0.02 i.u.. The method offers the possibility of an automated on-line calculation of retention indices by computer merely on the basis of unadjusted retention times.

     

Capillary gas chromatography of C1−C4 alkyl tert-butyl ethers

Summary The separation of C₁–C₄ alkyl tert-butyl ethers with the general formula (CH₃)₃C–O–R (R-alkyl substituent) on fused-silica capillary columns coated with dimethylsilicone and cyanopropylmethylsilicone stationary phases was investigated. Retention indices were determined at two temperatures in order to understand their chromatographic behaviour. The respective standard deviations were 0.3 and 0.5 i.u.

Morse Index of Multiple Blow-up Solutions to the Two-Dimensional Sinh-Poisson Equation

In this paper we consider the Dirichlet problemwhere $\rho$ is a small parameter and $\Omega$ is a $C^2$ bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$. In [1], the author proves the existence of a $m$-point blow-up solution $u_\rho$ jointly with its asymptotic behaviour. We compute the Morse index of $u_\rho$ in terms of the Morse index of the associated Hamilton function of this problem. In addition, we give an asymptotic estimate for the first $4m$ eigenvalues and eigenfunctions.     

Efficient simulation of general stochastic hybrid systems

General Stochastic Hybrid System (SHS) are characterised by Stochastic Differential Equations (SDEs) with discontinuities and Poisson jump processes. SHS are useful in model based design of Cyber-Physical System (CPS) controllers under uncertainty. Industry standard model based design tools such as Simulink/Stateflow® are inefficient when simulating, testing, and validating SHS, because of dependence on fixed-step Euler–Maruyama (EM) integration and discontinuity detection. We present a novel efficient adaptive step-size simulation/integration technique for general SHSs modelled as a network of Stochastic Hybrid Automatons (SHAs). We propose a simulation algorithm where each SHA in the network executes synchronously with the other, at an integration step-size computed using adaptive step-size integration. Ito’ multi-dimensional lemma and the inverse sampling theorem are leveraged to compute the integration step-size by making the SDEs and Poisson jump rate integration dependent upon discontinuities. Existence and convergence analysis along with experimental results show that the proposed technique is substantially faster than Simulink/Stateflow®when simulating general SHSs.     

Real-time onboard wind and windshear determination,part 2: Detection

This paper is concerned with windshear detection in connection with real-time wind identification (Ref. 1). It presents a comparative evaluation of two techniques, one based on the shear/downdraft factor and one based on the wind difference index. The comparison is done with reference to a particular microburst, that which caused the 1985 crash of Flight Delta 191 at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.The shear/downdraft factor has the merit of combining the effects of the shear and the downdraft into a single entity. However, its effectiveness is hampered by the fact that, in a real situation, the windshear is accompanied by free-stream turbulence, which tends to blur the resulting signal. In turn, this results in undesirable nuisance warnings if the magnitude of the shear factor due to free-stream turbulence is temporarily larger than that due to true windshear. Therefore, proper filtering is necessary prior to using the shear/downdraft factor in detection and guidance. One effective way for achieving this goal is to average the shear/downdraft factor over a specified time interval . The effect of on the average shear/downdraft factor is studied.
