The ligand rearrangement reaction of Cr(CO)6 is studied in a series of alcohol solutions using ultrafast infrared spectroscopy and Brownian dynamics simulations. Excitation with 266 nm light gives Cr(CO)5 which is quickly solvated by a ligand from the bath. In alcohol solutions, solvation by an alkyl or hydroxyl site can occur; all alkyl bound complexes eventually rearrange to hydroxyl bound co...

Ligand field molecular mechanics (LFMM), density functional theory (DFT), and semiempirical PM7 methods are used to study the binding of two Pt(II)-L systems to an N-terminal fragment of the amyloid-β peptide, where L = 2,2-bipyridyl or 1,10-phenanthroline. Molecular dynamics simulations are used to explore the conformational freedom of the peptide using LFMM combined with AMBER molecular mecha...

exploiting multimodal information like acceleration and heart rate is a promising method to achieve human action recognition. a semi-supervised action recognition approach aucc (action understanding with combinational classifier) using the diversity of base classifiers to create a high-quality ensemble for multimodal human action recognition is proposed in this paper. furthermore, both labeled ...

The main objectives of the study are: 1) To develop and test a mesoscale forecasting system with subkilometer horizontal resolution to support the NOWCAST system at the Fallon Naval Air Station (NAS); 2) To improve the accuracy of the forecasts and nowcasts by assimilating asynchronous data into the forecasting system; 3) To provide short-term predictions of cloud structure that are essential t...
