This computational study is motivated by the apparent conflict between an experiment on dissociation of H2 and D2 on Pt~111!, which suggests a rather corrugated potential energy surface ~PES! for the H2/Pt~111! system, and an experiment showing only weak nonzero-order diffraction of HD scattering from Pt~111!. In the calculations we have used density functional theory ~DFT! within the generaliz...

Given image data of a fluid flow, the flow field, 〈u, v〉, governing the evolution of the system can be estimated using a variational approach to optical flow. Assuming that the flow field governing the advection is the symplectic gradient of a stream function or the gradient of a potential function – both falling under the category of a potential flow – it is natural to re-frame the optical flo...

An abandoned stream valley, here called Florence Valley, was found in eastern Erie County, Ohio. Florence Valley is about one mile long and connects the valleys of Chappel Creek and the Vermilion River. There is evidence that Florence Valley was formed as a result of the capture of a tributary of the Vermilion River by Chappel Creek. Chappel Creek, at the junction of Florence Valley and the val...

The aim of this work was to determine the composition of the fish assemblage of Passa Cinco stream and verify changes in their structure on the altitudinal gradient. Six samples were performed at five different sites in Passa Cinco stream (from the headwater, at order two, to its mouth, at order six), using an electric fishery equipment and gill nets in May, July, September and November of 2005...
