Simulating numerically the sound radiation of a rolling tire requires the solution of a very large and sparse gyroscopic eigenvalue problem. Taking advantage of the automated multi-level substructuring (AMLS) method it can be projected to a much smaller gyroscopic problem, the solution of which however is still quite costly since the eigenmodes are non-real and complex arithmetic is necessary. This paper discusses the application of AMLS to huge gyroscopic problems and the numerical solution of the AMLS reduction. A numerical example demonstrates the efficiency of AMLS. 相似文献
Projectile fission of 750 AMeV 238U-ions interacting with a Pb target was studied by means of the spectrometer FRS, GSI-Darmstadt. One of the two fission fragments
was detected with a transmission of few percent and identified in mass and charge. Low-energy fission (E* < 25 MeV) events were selected by their magnetic rigidity. Whereas the production of asymmetric fission events is dominated
by the GDR excitation, very asymmetric fission and symmetric fission take place after a GQR or DGDR excitation or after a
nuclear interaction. Cross sections of more than 250 isotopes were measured. Isotopic distributions of low-energy fission
were reconstructed for elements from Se to Te. The fission modes SI, SII and SL were clearly shown in these distributions
and in the mass and TKE distributions. Charge polarization and mass dispersion were deduced for each fission mode. Finally,
the characteristics of the low-energy fission process explain the production rates of neutron-rich species.

A mixed hypergraph is a triple (V,C,D) where V is its vertex set and C and D are families of subsets of V, called C-edges and D-edges, respectively. For a proper coloring, we require that each C-edge contains two vertices with the same color and each D-edge contains two vertices with different colors. The feasible set of a mixed hypergraph is the set of all k's for which there exists a proper coloring using exactly k colors. A hypergraph is a hypertree if there exists a tree such that the edges of the hypergraph induce connected subgraphs of the tree.We prove that feasible sets of mixed hypertrees are gap-free, i.e., intervals of integers, and we show that this is not true for precolored mixed hypertrees. The problem to decide whether a mixed hypertree can be colored by k colors is NP-complete in general; we investigate complexity of various restrictions of this problem and we characterize their complexity in most of the cases. 相似文献
Alkyl thione (2) and dithiobenzoates (3) as well as their aryl substituted derivatives 4 and 5 may be converted into radical anions by in situ electroreduction.—The EPR spectra of 2–5 are measured. Conclusions about the spin density distribution within the aromatic ring and the functional group are drawn from the hyperfine structure coupling constants, g-values and polarographic half wave potentials, whereby the effect of ortho substituents (twisting of the two halves of the molecule) is especially considered.—The results agree sufficiently with MO calculations of the McLachlan type.Inspection of the alkyl coupling constants shows that the alkyl groups exhibit conformations of minimum steric hindrance of the thiocarbonyl group. 相似文献
In this review anti-metatype antibodies are described invoking new principles in immunoassay development. Anti-metatype antibodies are immunological reagents specific for the conformation of the liganded antibody active site which do not interact with bound ligand or unliganded antibody. Relationships between anti-metatype antibody reactivity and the ligand-induced conformational state of monoclonal antibodies are reviewed with emphasis on the fluorescein hapten as a small molecule model system. One characteristic result of the interaction of anti-metatype antibodies with liganded antibodies is a significant delay in the dissociation rate (k2) of the ligand bound within the primary immune complex. The latter is an important consideration for assay development. Polyclonal and monoclonal anti-metatype antibody reagents are characterized in terms of their differential effects on the ligand dissociation rate. Anti-metatype antibody reactivity is further discussed in terms of protein-protein specificity patterns and relative interactions with idiotype-family members, structural derivatives, and site-specific mutants. Incorporation of principles inherent in the anti-metatype concept and their application to assay development are summarized.Abbreviations D2O

Although fluorescein is a widely used fluorescent probe in the biosciences, the effect of solvent environment on its spectral properties is poorly understood. In this paper we explore the use of fluorescein as a probe of the state of hydrogen bonding in its local environment. This application is based on the observation, originally made by Martin ( Chem. Phys. Lett . 35, 105–111, 1975), that the absorption maximum of fluorescein undergoes substantial shifts in organic solvents related to the hydrogen bonding power of the solvents. We have extended this work by studying the spectral properties of the dianion form of the probe in solvent–water mixtures. We show that the magnitude of the shift correlates with the α and β parameters of Kamlet and Taft ( J. Am. Chem. Soc . 98, 377–383; 2886–2894, 1976), which provide a scale of the hydrogen bond donor acidities and acceptor basicities, respectively, of the solvents. In solvent–water mixtures, these shifts reflect general effects of the solvents on the hydrogen bonding environment of the fluorescein through water–solvent hydrogen bonding and specific effects due to fluorescein–solvent hydrogen bonding. Indeed, both the absorption and fluorescence properties appear to be dominated by these effects indicating that the spectral shifts of the dianion can be used as an indicator of its hydrogen bonding environment. We discuss the application of fluorescein as a probe of hydrogen bonding in the microenvironment immediately surrounding the fluorophore, and we illustrate the effect with reference to the fluorescein–antifluorescein antibody complex where it appears that antibodies selected during the immune response possess binding sites that are increasingly dehydrated and hydrophobic. 相似文献
Polarographic and cyclovoltammetric investigation of the thiooxalates 1–6 shows that they are reversibly reduced to the corresponding radical anions. Accordingly, EPR spectra are obtained after in-situ electroreduction. Taking also the electronic spectra into consideration, conclusions about the spin density distribution can be drawn. It is shown thatpπ is higher at the oxygen atoms of oxoesters than at the sulfur atoms of the corresponding thiono esters. 相似文献
In our former investigations, the phenomenon high temperature corrosion (HTC) was described exemplarily on selected materialcoating combinations for blades of stationary gas turbines, mainly in the temperature region of up to 750° C. To answer the question, in which manner higher gas inlet and/or higher material surface temperature would influence the HTC behaviour, a special analytical technique—the integral layer profile analysis—was introduced to ameliorate concentration profile methods. By examining IN 738 LC specimens with CoCrAlY plasma spray coating, stressed by hot gas at 900° C, the limits of this system are shown by explaining the corrosion mechanism; the method is also used for other systems, e.g. U 520 with NiCrAlY coating at 750° C. 相似文献
The intramolecular and long-range ferromagnetic coupling between p-phenylenediamine radical cations in head-to-tail coupled oligo(1, 4-phenyleneethynylene)s and oligo(1,4-phenylenvinylene)s between neighbors and next-nearest neighbors is described. UV/vis/near-IR experiments show that the radical cations are localized in the pendant p-phenylenediamine units of the conjugated oligomers. The ESR spectra of these oligo(1,4-phenyleneethynylene) and oligo(1, 4-phenylenvinylene) di(radical cation)s are consistent with those of a triplet state. A linear behavior is observed for the doubly integrated ESR intensity of the DeltaM(s) = +/-1 and DeltaM(s) = +/-2 signals with the inverse temperature (I approximately 1/T), consistent with Curie's law. This behavior indicates a triplet ground-state diradical with a large triplet-singlet energy gap or possibly a degeneracy of singlet and triplet states. 相似文献
