the b3lyp/6-31++g** density functional calculations were used to obtain minimum geometries and interaction energies between the molecular hydrogen and nanostructures of fullerenes, c20 (cage), c20 (bowl), c19si (bowl, penta), c19si (bowl, hexa). the h2 molecule is set as adsorbed in the distance of 3å at vertical position from surface above the pentagonal and hexagonal sites of nanostructures. ...

We study equilibrium and maximin play in supergames consisting of the sequential play of a finite collection of stage games, where each stage game has two outcomes for each player. We show that for two-player supergames in which each stage game is strictly competitive, in any Nash equilibrium of the supergame, play at each stage is a Nash equilibrium of the stage game provided preferences over ...

The hypersonic aeroelastic and aerothermoelastic problem of a double-wedge airfoil typical cross-section is studied using three different unsteady aerodynamic loads: (1) third-order piston theory, (2) Euler aerodynamics, and (3) Navier-Stokes aerodynamics. Computational aeroelastic response results are used to obtain frequency and damping characteristics, and compared with those from piston the...

The gas force due to the combustion in the cylinder of an IC engine will cause the piston to move with primary motion and secondary motion. The primary motion of the piston from TDC to BDC is linear in nature. This motion is desired for translation of motion of engine components. Secondary motion is due to the transverse motion of the piston while piston moving from TDC to BDC and vice-versa. T...

This paper takes dynamics analysis on the piston and the dynamic lubrication theory on the skirt and the ring of piston as the basis. Using AVL Glide software, through the establishment of the analysis model of the piston secondary movements, this study focuses on the effects of the crankshaft bias on piston secondary movements’ characteristics. This paper takes 5 different offsets, by comparin...

Perfect magnetic conductor (PMC) boundary conditions are dual to the more familiar perfect electric conductor (PEC) conditions and can be viewed as the electromagnetic analog of the boundary conditions in the bag model for hadrons in QCD. Recent advances and requirements in communication technologies have attracted great interest in PMC’s and Casimir experiments involving structures that approx...

In the Drosophila leg, activation of Notch leads to the establishment of the joints that subdivide the appendage into segments. We find that mutations in bowl result in similar phenotypes to Notch, causing fusion and truncations of tarsal segments (tarsomeres) and, like its close relative Odd-skipped, Bowl is produced in response to Notch signalling at a subset of segment boundaries. However, d...

This paper describes the behavior of a rolling piston in a rolling piston type rotary compressor under various operating conditions. Kinematic behavior of the rolling piston is discussed with attention to the friction forces acting on the rolling piston and the vane. Emphasis is on the following simulation approach. (1) The equation of motion of the rolling piston is solved in conjunction with ...
