Mixed-Valence Molecular Unit for Quantum Cellular Automata: Beyond the Born-Oppenheimer Paradigm through the Symmetry-Assisted Vibronic Approach.
2016
In this article, we focus on the electron-vibrational problem of the tetrameric mixed-valence (MV) complexes proposed for implementation as four-dot molecular quantum cellular automata (mQCA).1 Although the adiabatic approximation explored in ref 2 is an appropriate tool for the qualitative analysis of the basic characteristics of mQCA, like vibronic trapping of the electrons encoding binary information and cell-cell response, it loses its accuracy providing moderate vibronic coupling and fails in the description of the discrete pattern of the vibronic levels. Therefore, a precise solution of the quantum-mechanical vibronic problem is of primary importance for the evaluation of the shapes o…
Magnetic mixed-valence d2-d1-d1 trimers with partial electron delocalization: vibronic coupling and magnetic properties
1993
Abstract The energy levels and magnetic properties of a triangular mixed-valence cluster d1-d1-d2 with electron delocalization in a pair of sites are examined from a model that takes into account electron transfer, magnetic exchange, and vibronic coupling. We show that the electron transfer process involves besides the usual double-exchange parameter, and additional parameter referred to as exchange transfer. This last parameter accounts for the interaction between the moving electron of the mixed valence pair and the electron localized in the third side. We notice that the role of double exchange is to stabilize a ferromagnetic alignment of the spins on the mixed-valence pair. A comparison…
Mixed-valence polyoxometalate clusters. III. Vibronic problem for the 2-electron reduced heteropoly blue with the Keggin structure
1995
Abstract A general approach to the vibronic problem of delocalized electronic pairs in mixed-valence compounds is developed and applied to understand the ways of electron delocalization in dodecanuclear polyoxometalate clusters containing two moving electrons. The interplay between electronic and vibronic interactions is examined. The electronic spectrum is shown to consist of two spin triplets 3 T 1 and 3 T 2 and three spin singlets 1 A 1 , 1 E and 1 T 2 levels determined by the double-transfer processes (parameter P ). Jahn-Teller and pseudo-Jahn-Teller problems ( 3 T 1 + 3 T 2 ) ⊗ ( e + t 2 ) and ( 1 A 1 + 1 E + 1 T 2 ) ⊗ ( e + t 2 ) have been considered in the framework of the Piepho-Kr…
Electrically switchable magnetic molecules: inducing a magnetic coupling by means of an external electric field in a mixed-valence polyoxovanadate cl…
2015
International audience; Herein we evaluate the influence of an electric field on the coupling of two delocalized electrons in the mixed-valence polyoxometalate (POM) [GeV14 O40 ](8-) (in short V14 ) by using both a t-J model Hamiltonian and DFT calculations. In absence of an electric field the compound is paramagnetic, because the two electrons are localized on different parts of the POM. When an electric field is applied, an abrupt change of the magnetic coupling between the two delocalized electrons can be induced. Indeed, the field forces the two electrons to localize on nearest-neighbors metal centers, leading to a very strong antiferromagnetic coupling. Both theoretical approaches have…
Contending legitimations
2010
Purpose“Contending legitimations” (Meyer and Scott) in cities – and especially multiple conflicting institutional pressures on decision makers – have not received sufficient accounting study. Therefore this paper aims to analyse the multiple institutional pressures on the performance measurement (PM) practices of two Finnish cities and answer why the developments and the coupling of budget or PM rules and routines were different in these relatively similar case cities.Design/methodology/approachIn this interpretive study, a comparative case setting (e.g. including several semi‐structured interviews) was used.FindingsContending legitimations affect the coupling of city budgeting and PM rules…
Control Strategy for Induction Motor Drives Based on Decoupling Techniques
1989
Abstract In this work a new closed loop, synchronous microprocessor-based controller is proposed for field oriented controlled induction motor drives, using a PWM voltage source inverter. This controller is based on a non linear state feedback compensator which gives decoupling of both rotor current and rotor flux, and direct and inquadrature components of the stator current vector. The compensator has a linearizing effect on the synchronous model of the electromagnetic circuit of the motor. It follows that the control laws can be obtained using optimal control techniques for linear systems. The controller in question gives directly the conduction sequences of the inverter supplying the ind…
Ventricular-vascular coupling in hypertension: methodological considerations and clinical implications.
2014
The present review is addressed to analyse the complex interplay between left ventricle and arterial tree in hypertension. The different methodological approaches to the analysis of ventricular vascular coupling in the time and frequency domain are discussed. Moreover, the role of hypertension-related changes of arterial structure and function (stiffness and wave reflection) on arterial load and how ventricular-vascular coupling modulates the process of left ventricular adaptation to hypertension are analysed.The different interplay between vascular bed and left ventricle emerges as the pathophysiological basis for the development of the multiple patterns of ventricular structural adaptatio…
Flow characteristics and dynamic responses of a parked straight‐bladed vertical axis wind turbine
2019
Abstract With the development of urbanization and the application of renewable energy, wind turbine is becoming an important approach for wind energy reservation and utilization. This study provides a numerical investigation on understanding the surface pressure distribution, flow characteristics and dynamic responses of a parked straight‐bladed vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT), which is helpful for its design. Together with the two‐way coupling method between simulation platforms such as STAR‐CCM+ and ABAQUS, the SST k‐ω turbulence model is used to obtain the surface pressure and surrounding flow of the VAWT, and the finite element method is used to obtain the dynamic responses of its str…
Balancing of multi-stage pump using the coupling hub
2019
In this paper, we present an investigation to perform a temporary on-site balancing of machines which rotor is not accessible, such as multi-stage oil centrifugal pumps, in order to bring back the vibration magnitude below the alarm threshold, waiting for the scheduled general review of the machine. We have shown that if the vibration measured on the Driver End Support (DE) is very higher than that measured on the Non Driver End Support (NDE), we can consider the Coupling Hub fitted to the Pump (CHP) a correction plane in order to apply on site balancing by means of the Influence Coefficients Method. This permits to overcome the problem of the inaccessibility of the rotor and to solve, in t…
Effect of amorphous sequences on the longitudinal acoustic modes in partially crystalline polymers. I. Transfer matrix method
1983
A novel theoretical scheme is developed which enables the determination of the LAM-like vibrations of polymer chains made up of crystalline and amorphous parts as they occur in partially crystalline structures. The boundary conditions effective at the junction points are formulated in terms of the compliances of the associated amorphous sequences. These compliances can be derived from their eigenfrequencies and eigenvectors in a disconnected state. The treatment uses a matrix formalism which can be extended to include bending and torsional motions in a general state of vibration of the crystalline stem. A first numerical example demonstrates that the LA mode of a crystalline stem can be str…
