The elastic behavior and stability of elemental crystals are studied in the neighborhood of a stable equilibrium state, also called a phase, at finite pressure p. It is shown that two kinds of elastic constants are needed to describe elasticity under pressure. One set, designated as c(ij),i,j = 1-6, determines stability or lack of it; another set, designated as c(ij)(p), describes the linear re...

Synthesis and cation selectivity of 25, 27, dipropoxy-26, 28, Di-propoxy 5, 11, 17, 23, ptert-butyl Calix[4]arene are studied in acetonitrile solution. The stability constants of differentcomplexes of Calixarene (as a ligand) with alkali metal cations are determined at 25 °C by usingspectrophotometric technique.On the basis of calculations, complexation of Calixarene with Cs+and Li+ are more fa...

The electronic and structural properties of pristine and carbon doped (C-doped) boron nitride nano-ribbons(BNNRs) have been studied employing density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Total energies, gapenergies, dipole moments, and quadrupole coupling constants (qcc) have been calculated in the optimizedstructures of the investigated BNNRs. The results indicated that the stability and gap ...

ABSTRACT The stability constants of ML-type complexes of the two linear triphosphate ligand anion analogues triphosphate ([Formula: see text]) and diimidotriphosphate ([Formula: see text]) were investigated thermodynamically using potentiometric titrations according to Schwarzenbach's procedure. The stability constants of the ML-type complexes of different divalent metal ions with [Formula: see...

The interaction of Cu with dissolved organic matter (DOM, extracted from an organic forest floor) was investigated and the resulting data was evaluated in terms of their uncertainty. The speciation of Cu over 'free' Cu (as analysed by diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT)), dissolved Cu-DOM complexes and precipitated Cu-DOM was determined as a function of pH (3.5, 4.0 and 4.5) and Cu/C ratio....

Remotely keyed encryption (RKE) schemes provide fast symmetric encryption and decryption using a small-bandwidth security module and a powerful host. Such schemes keep the key inside the security module to prevent key compromise. Shin, Shin, and Rhee proposed a length-preserving as well as a length-increasing RKE scheme that both use only a single round of interaction between host and security ...

Kinetic and thermodynamic studies reveal that the property of significantly enhanced catalytic activity with colloidal stability is attributed to an efficacious means of tuning enzyme-substrate association by varying with the rate constants in the presence of functionalized gold nanoparticles.

in this paper, we study the boundedness and persistence of the solutions, the global stability of the unique positive equilibrium point and the rate of convergence of a solution that converges to the equilibrium $e=(bar{x}, bar{y})$ of the system of two difference equations of exponential form: begin{equation*} x_{n+1}=dfrac{a+e^{-(bx_n+cy_n)}}{d+bx_n+cy_n}, y_{n+1}=dfrac{a+e^{-(by_n+cx_n)}}{d+...

A control of real processes requires different approach to neural network learning. The presented modification of backpropagation learning algorithm changes a meaning of learning constants. A base of modification is stability condition of learning dynamics.
