Comparative study of modelling the thermal efficiency of a novel straight through evacuated tube collector with MLR, SVR, BP and RBF methods
2021
Abstract Data-based methods are useful for accurate modelling of solar thermal systems. In this work, several artificial neural network (ANN) techniques are proposed to predict the thermal performance of an all-glass straight through evacuated tube solar collector. These are compared to support vector regression analysis. Extensive experimental data sets were collected for training the ANN models. Solar radiation intensity, ambient temperature, wind speed, mass flow rate and collector inlet temperature were selected as the input layer to predict the thermal efficiency of the solar collector. The prediction precision of the ANN models was compared to the multiple linear regression and suppor…
Shape-persistent poly-porphyrins assembled by a central truxene: synthesis, structure, and singlet energy transfer behaviors
2013
Four dyad systems composed of a central truxene and either one or three β-substituted zinc(II) porphyrins (ZnP: TruZnP (7) and TruTriZnP (9)) or free-bases (H2P: TruP (6) and TruTriP (8)) have been prepared. The presence of β-methyl groups minimizes π-conjugation through the quasi right angle made by the porphyrin and the truxene planes, and renders these dyads relatively rigid. The position of the absorption and emission 0–0 peaks confirms the role of the truxene and porphyrin as the energy donor and acceptor, respectively. Selective excitation of the truxene results in an efficient singlet energy transfer (S1 ET) from the truxene to the porphyrin unit. The rates for S1 ET (k ET ) are ext…
Singlet and triplet energy transfer rate acceleration by additions of clusters in supramolecular pigment-organometallic cluster assemblies
2011
Both S(1) and T(1) energy transfer rates (porphyrin → cluster) increase from mono- to di- to tetracarboxylate[tetraphenyl-(zinc)porphyrin] adducts with [Pd(3)(dppm)(3)(CO)](2+) clusters.
Evolution Over Time of Ventilatory Management and Outcome of Patients With Neurologic Disease
2021
OBJECTIVES: To describe the changes in ventilator management over time in patients with neurologic disease at ICU admission and to estimate factors associated with 28-day hospital mortality. DESIGN: Secondary analysis of three prospective, observational, multicenter studies. SETTING: Cohort studies conducted in 2004, 2010, and 2016. PATIENTS: Adult patients who received mechanical ventilation for more than 12 hours. INTERVENTIONS: None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Among the 20,929 patients enrolled, we included 4,152 (20%) mechanically ventilated patients due to different neurologic diseases. Hemorrhagic stroke and brain trauma were the most common pathologies associated with the need fo…
Singlet and triplet energy transfers in tetra-(meso-truxene)zinc(II)- and tetra-(meso-tritruxene)zinc(II) porphyrin and porphyrin-free base dendrimer…
2011
The synthesis, optical properties, and energy transfer features of four dendrimers composed of meso-tetrasubstituted zinc(II) porphyrin (ZnP) or a free base (P) central core, where the substituents are four truxene (Tru) or four tritruxene dendrons (TriTru), TruP, TriTruP, TruZnP, and TriTruZnP, are reported. Selective excitation of the truxene donors results in a photoinduced singlet energy transfer from the truxenes to the porphyrin acceptor. The rates for singlet energy transfer (k(ET)), evaluated from the change in the fluorescence lifetime of the donors (Tru and TriTru) in the presence and absence of the acceptor (P or ZnP) for TruP, TruZnP, TriTruP, and TriTruZnP, are 5.9, 1.2, 0.87, …
