The well-posedness of a Riemann problem at a junction in a pipeline network is discussed. In addition computational results on the dynamics of the flow of a multi-component gas at such network junctions are presented. The work presented here is a generalisation of [M. K. Banda, M. Herty, and J. M. T. Ngnotchouye, Towards a mathematical analysis of multiphase drift-flux model in networks, SIAM J...

In this paper Kolomogorov entropy of a simulated cavity quantum electrodynamics in a multi-partite system consisting of eight quantum dots in interaction with one cavity mode has been estimated. It has been shown that the Kolmogorov Entropy monotonically increases with the increasing coupling strength, which is a sufficient condition for chaotic behavior under ultrastrong coupling regime. The a...

the three components one pot synthesis of 2-amino-4h-benzo-[b] -pyran derivatives were obtained in good to excellent yields within short reaction time by condensing dimedone, aldehydes and malanonitrile or ethylcyanoacetate using a catalytic amount of (diacetoxyiodo)benzene as hypervalent iodine in aqueous ethanol under reflux conditions have been discussed. this aqua mediated knoevenagel-cyclo...

A one pot green three‐component coupling reaction of aldehyde, phenylacetylene, and amine derivatives in the presence of copper (II)–thioamide combination as a novel and efficient heterogeneous catalyst under solvent–free conditions is reported. The catalyst displayed high activity and afforded the corresponding propargylamines in good to high yields. The key to this procedure was the generatio...

The use of lattice Boltzmann methods (LBM) for fluid flow and its coupling with finite element method (FEM) structural models for fluid-structure interaction (FSI) is investigated. A body of high performance LBM software that exploits graphic processing unit (GPU) and multiprocessor programming models is developed and validated against a set of twoand three-dimensional benchmark problems. Compu...

This paper is concerned with the dependence structure of a multi-component, cumulative damage shock model, in which a system of components is subject to correlated shock damages and group repairs. A component fails when its cumulative damage exceeds a given threshold, and is then replaced by a new component. We incorporate a block maintenance schedule that simultaneously performs imperfect repa...

α-Amino nitriles are synthesized in a one-pot, three-component coupling of aldehydes (or ketones), aniline, and trimethylsilyl cyanide using a catalytic amount of choline chloride.2ZnCl2 as a bio Lewis acidic ionic liquid. Mild Lewis acidic characteristic of this ionic liquid allows efficient synthesis of α-amino nitriles from acid sensitive aldehydes.

an efficient synthesis of polyhydroquinoline derivatives was reported via four-component coupling reactions of aldehydes, 1,3-dicarbonyl ketones (dimedone or 1,3-cyclohexanedione), ethyl acetoacetate or methyl acetoacetate and ammonium acetate in the presence of a catalytic amount of nanocrystalline tio2 under solvent free conditions. the reported method is mild, rapid and has the advantages su...
