It is surprisingly di cult to calculate analytic expressions for virial coe cients. Even the exact calculation of the second virial coe cient is in general extremely di cult. If particles have no other interaction than hard core repulsion, things are slightly easier. In the isotropic phase, the second virial coe cient B 2 of two arbitrary, convex particles A and B can be determined by [1]

We studied electrical resistivity and the Hall coe cient of single-crystalline samples of an oxide superconductor Sr2RuO4 under hydrostatic pressures up to 1.2 GPa. The value of Tc decreases by 36 % at 1.2 GPa, while no appreciable change in the resistivity or the Hall coe cient has been observed. At room temperature an unexpected increase of resistivity along the c axis occurs with increasing ...

In this paper, we present a computational method for solving boundary integral equations with loga-rithmic singular kernels which occur as reformulations of a boundary value problem for the Laplacian equation. Themethod is based on the use of the Galerkin method with CAS wavelets constructed on the unit interval as basis.This approach utilizes the non-uniform Gauss-Legendre quadrature rule for ...

POST-PROCESSING OF VIDEO Mark A. Robertson and Robert L. Stevenson Department of Electrical Engineering University of Notre Dame Notre Dame, IN 46556 fmrobert2,[email protected] ABSTRACT We propose a method of reducing the computational complexity of iterative video post-processing algorithms that make use of the convex quantization constraint set. Rather than constraining all DCT coe cients in a blo...

The front-end used in many speaker recognition systems extracts, from the input speech signal, a set of coe cients based on a mel-cepstrum technique. This paper addresses the problem of e ciency of melcepstrum coe cients in a speaker recognition system and suggests a technique permitting an appropriate choice of these coe cients. It is shown, by the results obtained, that this technique can sig...

Carbon emissions from the transport sector (COE) has witnessed unprecedented growth, which calls for special measures to control these achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. One of taken limit is climate change mitigation technology related (CCMT). However, there exists relatively scant literature that explores CCMT-COE nexus. Hence, present study whether CCMT curbs COE in top carbon-emitting count...

Triphenylphosphonium functionalization of a conjugated oligoelectrolyte (COE) with stilbene core improved its spectrum activity to include ESKAPE pathogens and mycobacteria while crucially retaining the membrane-perturbing mode action characteristic COEs. The efficacy lead compound in vivo highlights potential COE molecular platform for designing more effective antibiotics. More information can...

Abstract Managers are required to disclose material climate risk in Form 10-K, but their decision whether or not is confounded by the lack of consensus on firms, as well uncertainty about enforcement disclosure regulations. Using SASB Materiality Map™ proxy for market expectations materiality, we test association between disclosing 10-Ks and firm (proxied cost equity (COE)) varies with material...

A ferrierite-type layered aluminosilicate, Al-RUB-36, was prepared for the first time and its interlayer expansion resulted in new zeolite catalysts denoted Al-COE-3 and Al-COE-4. Decane hydroconversion tests demonstrated the highly active and shape-selective nature of the new Al-COE-4 catalyst with an unprecedented isomerization yield, highlighting the potential of this material as a hydroisom...
