Investigation of relationship with electron configuration of chemical hardness, absolute electronegativity and electrophilicity

Chemical hardness (), absolute electronegativity (), and electrophilicity () have importantapplications in inorganic chemistry. These concepts are defined quantitatively as � � �� � ����,� � �� � ����, � � ������Where I is the ionization energy and A is the electron affinity. In thisstudy, graphical method was used to see the relation of electron configuration with chemicalhardness, absolute el...

Derivation of ionization energy and electron affinity equations using chemical hardness and absolute electronegativity in isoelectronic series

Chemical hardness () and absolute electronegativity () have important applications in chemistry. Inthe conceptual Density Functional theory (DFT), these concepts has been associated with electronicenergy and the relationship with ionization energy (I) and electron affinity (A) of these concepts hasbeen given. In this study, graphical method was used in order to see the relationship with the ato...

On the relative efficiency in general network structures

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is an eciency measurement tool for evaluation of similar Decision Making Units (DMUs). In DEA, weights are assigned to inputs and outputs and the absolute eciency score is obtained by the ratio of weighted sum of outputs to weighted sum of inputs. In traditional DEA models, this measure is also equivalent with relative eciency score which evaluates DMUs in compar...

Thorough subcells diagnosis in a multi-junction solar cell via absolute electroluminescence-efficiency measurements

World-wide studies on multi-junction (tandem) solar cells have led to record-breaking improvements in conversion efficiencies year after year. To obtain detailed and proper feedback for solar-cell design and fabrication, it is necessary to establish standard methods for diagnosing subcells in fabricated tandem devices. Here, we propose a potential standard method to quantify the detailed subcel...

Contour Crafting Process Plan Optimization Part I: Single-Nozzle Case

Contour Crafting is an emerging technology that uses robotics to construct free form building structures by repeatedly laying down layers of material such as concrete. The Contour Crafting technology scales up automated additive fabrication from building small industrial parts to constructing buildings. Tool path planning and optimization for Contour Crafting benefit the technology by increasin...
