The easy-to-prepare Nb(V) aryloxide complex [(ArO)2Nb(μ-Cl)Cl2]2 (OAr = 2,6-bis(diphenylmethyl)-4-tert-butylphenoxide) is a precursor to both Nb(IV), [trans-(ArO)2NbCl2(THF)2], and Nb(III), K3[(ArO)4Nb2(μ-Cl)3Cl2], molecules. The Nb(IV) and (V) complexes readily split atmospheric nitrogen at room temperature and 1 atmosphere, under reducing conditions, to produce the low-coordinate nitride dime...

In this paper absorption loss & negative magnetic permeability feature of split ring resonator (SRR) is demonstrated & discussed at length for rectangular as well as circular geometry in microwave frequency region. Reflection as well as transmission parameter of SRR for the afro mentioned geometry is presented. The transmission shows a dip for propagation along the direction of split ring reson...

In this work, it is shown the application of split-ring magnetoinductive (MI) lenses in parallel magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MI lenses provide high localization of MRI coil sensitivities and higher signal-to-noise-ratio in comparison with split-ring μ = −1 lenses. This conclusion is supported by both numerical and experimental results.

The modern active systems and the advanced driver assistance systems have certainly reduced the amount of accidents. However these systems are still lacking one major information, which is the friction between the tyre-road interface. The performance of these systems could be enhanced substantially if this information was known. Rather simple methods can be used to determine the friction coeffi...

electrochemical behavior of the new mono and dinuclear co (iii)  complexes of  the types trans-[pyco((do)(doh)pn )(l)]pf6   and [{py co((do)(doh)pn)}2 (μ-dicyd)] (pf6)2   have been studied in acetonitrile solution.  all the  mono nuclear complexes  show two quasi- reversible reduction couples associate  to co(iii/ii)and  co(ii/i). each of these redox couples split to two  one electron  waves in...

Monge gave a number of examples to illustrate the difficulties of the problem. Plainly if arbitrary measures are allowed it may not be possible to transport at all. If μ is a single point mass and ν consists of two point masses, each with weight 1/2, then no map T can “split μ in half”. Where transportation maps do exist, there may be many different optimal ones, even for measures on the line. ...

Our aim here is to give a fairly self-contained exposition of some basic facts about the Iwahori-Hecke algebra H of a split p-adic group, including Bernstein’s presentation and description of the center, Macdonald’s formula, the CasselmanShalika formula, and the Kato-Lusztig formula. There are no new results here, and the same is essentially true of the proofs. We have been strongly influenced ...

in front wheels driven vehicles, fuel economy can be obtained by summing torques applied to rear wheels. on the other hand, unequal torques applied to rear wheels provides enhanced safety. in this paper, a model with seven degrees of freedom is considered for the vehicle body. thereafter, power-train subsystems are modeled. considering an electrical machine on each rear wheel, a fuzzy controlle...

The main purpose of this paper is to prove a group-theoretic generalization of a theorem of Katz on isocrystals. Along the way we reprove the group-theoretic generalization of Mazur’s inequality for isocrystals due to Rapoport-Richartz, and generalize from split groups to unramified groups a result from [KR] which determines when the affine Deligne-Lusztig subset X μ (b) of G(L)/G(oL) is non-em...
