The Difference

Within the unified model of chemical bonding and methods of quantitative assessment of components of mixed chemical interaction between the elements in compounds, developed by the authors, a new approach was developed to assess the structural and energy characteristics of substances and fuels. It comprises establishing a correlation between the difference of bonds’ chemical components of reactants and end products. Changes in the chemical bond components affect such characteristics of chemical reactions as the heat of formation of the reaction products, their redox properties, whether reaction is endoor exothermic, as well as the heat of fuel combustion reactions. This approach is an additional reserve for improving the methods for assessing the energy characteristics of fuels and increasing the efficiency of energy production technologies.

The phenomenon of economic growth is studied by economists and statisticians in various aspects for a long time. Economic theory is devoted to assessing factors of growth in the tradition of R. Solow, R. Barrow, W. Easterly and others. During the last quarter of the century, however, the institutionalists, namely D. North, D. Wallis, B. Weingast as well as D. Acemoglu and J. Robinson, have shown the complexity of the problem of development on the part of socioeconomic and political institutions. As a result, solving the problem of how economic growth affects inequality between countries has proved extremely difficult. The modern world is very diverse in terms of development level, and the article offers a new approach to the formation of the idea of stylized facts using cluster analysis. The existing statistics allows to estimate on a unified basis the level of GDP production by 174 countries of the world for 1992—2016. The article presents a structured picture of the world: the distribution of countries in seven clusters, different in levels of development. During the period under review, there was a strong per capita GDP growth in PPP in the middle of the distribution, poverty in various countries declined markedly. At the same time, in 1992—2016, the difference increased not only between rich and poor groups of countries, but also between clusters.

AbstractIn this article we present a new approach to words of the type zigzag, chitchat, etc. in English. Such words form a formal (phonological) and functional (semantic) pattern in English. We argue that this pattern should be analysed in a construction-based approach, which has clear advantages over other approaches, e.g. analyses involving extragrammaticality or a synchronically productive reduplication process. We propose to extend the construction-based approach beyond its original scope (syntactic constructions) to words that may even no longer be morphologically complex. Finally, we make a tentative suggestion about how the difference between productive and unproductive patterns could be captured in the construction-based approach.

A Company

In an era of increasing energy production from renewable sources, the demand for components for renewable energy systems has dramatically increased. Consequently, managers and investors are interested in knowing whether a company associated with the semiconductor and related device manufacturing sector, especially the photovoltaic (PV) systems manufacturers, is a money-making business. We apply a new approach that extends prior research by applying decision trees (DTs) to identify ratios (i.e., indicators), which discriminate between companies within the sector that do (designated as “green”) and do not (“red”) produce elements of PV systems. Our results indicate that on the basis of selected ratios, green companies can be distinguished from the red companies without an in-depth analysis of the product portfolio. We also find that green companies, especially operating in China are characterized by lower financial performance, thus providing a negative (and unexpected) answer to the question posed in the title.

Biocompatible Coatings

One of the ways to improve the fusion of an implant with bone tissue is through the use of biocompatible coatings, in particular, hydroxyapatite (HAp). It is important to assess the strength of the HAp adhesion to the implant. The measure of the strength of the bond of the coating with the substrate is the energy of this bond. Using density functional theory and molecular dynamics, the reaction path, reaction products, oscillation frequency, activation energy and bond energy between different combinations of component anions HAp and Ti (II) – the standard material of implants – are calculated. Using the computational chemistry software suite Gaussian 09 (Revision C.01 was used), the stable configurations of the reactants and products are found, and the binding energy of hydroxyapatite and titanium is then calculated based on the difference in ground energy of reactants and ground energy of products. Thus, the method of adhesion strength estimation between HAp coatings and Ti is proposed based on numerical calculations using MD software, and suggestions are provided on which conditions would be the best for optimal binding strength.

Three Components

By considering a many-bladed cascade, two simple theories are developed for secondary flow in cascades. Following the work of Hawthorne (1)†, three components of vorticity are identified at exit from the cascade. An expression is obtained for the difference in the time taken for fluid particles to travel over the two surfaces of the blade, and this is used to derive the governing equations for the distributed secondary, trailing filament and trailing shed vorticities. It is shown that, for a many-bladed cascade, the total secondary circulation in the downstream flow is zero. The calculation of secondary flow for a real cascade is discussed, and it is shown that earlier calculations of secondary flow at exit from cascades are consistent with this new approach.

Although the origin of the acoustic ganglion has been the subject of numerous studies there is no unanimity of opinion about it. Most of the earlier investigators (Bartelmez, 1922; Adelman, 1925), using mammalian embryos, believed that it arose from the neural crest, but the experiments of Campenhout (1935) and Yntema (1937) on amphibian embryos led them to the view that it was largely, if not wholly, of placodal origin. This view was supported by Halley (1955), who worked on the cat, and later by Batten (1958), who worked on the sheep. In fact Batten stated categorically that the otic placode was the sole source of the acoustic ganglion. It was thought that an entirely new approach to the problem, namely the use of mutant genes, might help to resolve the difference of opinion. The most suitable mutant for the present purpose seemed to be piebald-lethal (symbol s1; Lane, 1966).

Abstract The use of fresh water in the textile wash-off process is becoming more expensive day by day due to declining water levels in the region. In this study, the potential of using Fenton oxidation in wash-off cotton reactive dyeing was investigated. The spent wash-off wastewater from one dyeing was first treated with Fenton oxidation, and then reused in several washing-offs employing widely used reactive dyes, C.I. Reactive Yellow 145, C.I. Reactive Blue 21, and C.I. Reactive Red 195. Experimental results showed that at acidic pH (3) using optimized quantities of FeSO4 and H2O2, Fenton process yielded a significant reduction (90–95%) of color in 30 minutes of treatment time. New washing-offs were then carried out in Fenton decolorized wash-off wastewater, and dyed cotton fabric samples were subjected to quality evaluations in terms of color difference properties (ΔL*, Δc*,Δb*, Δa*, ΔE*cmc) and wash fastness properties. This study concluded that after Fenton oxidation, treated liquor can be effectively reused subsequent washing-offs without compromising fabric quality parameters as ΔE*cmc was less than 1, and washing and crocking was also in the range of 4.5–5 which is commercially acceptable. Moreover, the difference in color strength in terms of k/s was also negligible.
