The title compound, [AgCd(NCS)(3)(C(22)H(17)N(3))](n), is a hetero-atom ribbon coordination polymer. The central Cd atom is chelated by the 4'-p-tolyl-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine ligand and is coordinated by the N atoms of three thio-cyanate ions in an octa-hedral geometry whereas the Ag atom is coordinated by the four S atoms of four thio-cyanate ions in a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. Of the t...

The validation of precipitation estimates is necessary for the selection most appropriate dataset, as well having confidence in its selection. Traditional against gauges or radars much less effective when quality these references (which are considered ‘truth’) degrades, such areas poor coverage. In scenarios like this where ‘truth’ unreliable unknown, triple collocation analysis (TCA) facilitat...

An approach to developing a blended satellite-rainfall dataset over Australia that could be suitable for operational use is presented. In this study, Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation (GSMaP) satellite precipitation estimates were with station-based rain gauge data Australia, using station has not been harnessed by other products. A two-step method was utilized. First, GSMaP adjusted th...

Predicting and characterizing the crystal structure of materials is a key problem in materials research and development. We report the results of ab initio LDA/GGA computations for the following systems: AgAu, AgCd, AgMg, AgMo∗, AgNa, AgNb∗, AgPd, AgRh∗, AgRu∗, AgTc∗, AgTi, AgY, AgZr, AlSc, AuCd, AuMo∗, AuNb, AuPd, AuPt∗, AuRh∗, AuRu∗, AuSc, AuTc∗, AuTi, AuY, AuZr, CdMo∗, CdNb∗, CdPd, CdPt, CdR...

This paper considers an approximate factorisation of three bivariate Bernstein basis polynomials that are defined in a triangular domain. problem is important for the computation intersection points curves computer-aided design systems, and it reduces to determination greatest common divisor (AGCD) d(y) polynomials. The Sylvester matrix its subresultant matrices these formed shown there four fo...

Fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) is a “holy grail” of cryptography. However, it is not yet adopted in practice because no known scheme is efficient. In this paper, we mainly focus on how to reduce the public key sizes in FHE. Based on Dijk et al.’s FHE scheme (DGHV) and Gentry’s fully homomorhpic technology, we propose two schemes with shorter public keys by encrypting with a combination of t...

An encryption relation f ⊆ Z×Zwith decryption function f −1 is “group-homomorphic” if, for any suitable plaintexts x1 and x2, x1+x2 = f −1( f (x1)+ f (x2)). It is “ring-homomorphic” if furthermore x1x2 = f −1( f (x1) f (x2)); it is “field-homomorphic” if furthermore 1/x1 = f −1( f (1/x1)). Such relations would support oblivious processing of encrypted data. We propose a simple randomized encryp...

This study investigates the relationship between Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and meteorological drought category to identify NDVI thresholds that correspond varying categories. The gridded evaluation was performed across a 34-year period from 1982 2016 on monthly time scale for Grassland Temperate regions in Australia. To label each grid inside climate zone, we use Australian ...

An integral domain $D$ is called a emph{locally GCD domain} if $D_{M}$ is aGCD domain for every maximal ideal $M$ of $D$. We study somering-theoretic properties of locally GCD domains. E.g., we show that $%D$ is a locally GCD domain if and only if $aDcap bD$ is locally principalfor all $0neq a,bin D$, and flat overrings of a locally GCD domain arelocally GCD. We also show that the t-class group...

In shape memory alloys the Thermoelastic Martensitic Transformation (TMT), intrinsically stepwise, can be either thermally induced or stress-induced. Moreover, it has already been shown that an extrinsic fragmentation of thermally induced transformation can be stimulated ("Step-wise Martensite to Austenite Reversible Transformation", SMART) by means of Incomplete Cycles on Heating (ICHs): the S...
