DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF MOTORCYCLE BEHAVIOUR ON THE ROAD WITH STEERING PLATE STRUCTURAL OPTIMISATION

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of [N(CH3)4][2,2′-Fe(1,7-closo-C2B9H11)2]
2017
Abstract This work investigates the meta -ferrabis(dicarbollide) anion that was isolated as salt of tetramethylammonium. The structure of the obtained crystal consisted of discrete [2,2′-Fe(1,7- closo -C 2 B 9 H 11 ) 2 ] − anions and disordered [N(CH 3 ) 4 ] + cations. The anion had a considerable chemical stability ensured by ionic and Van der Waals interactions. Thus, Hirshfeld surfaces and fingerprint plot were used to visualize, explore, and quantify intermolecular interactions in the crystal lattice of the title compound. This investigation proved that close contacts were dominated by H⋯H interactions.
Work-related language learning trajectories of migrant cleaners in Finland
2017
Cleaning is often the survival employment that migrants can get in their new home country. Ideally, the workplace can be a site for integration and language learning. This article explores how two migrants working as cleaners in Finland narrate their work-related Finnish language learning trajectories. The research is designed by applying nexus analysis (Scollon & Scollon, 2004), which focuses on social action in the intersection of interaction order, participants’ life experiences, and discourses in place. The social action in focus here is investment (Darvin & Norton, 2015), which means a commitment to developing language skills to achieve one’s aspirations. The article also analy…
Suplementy diety dla sportowców w aspekcie przepisów antydopingowych
2022
Motywacja w zakresie stosowania suplementów diety w sporcie jest duża i silnie skorelowana z potrzebą osiągania coraz lepszych wyników przez konsumenta. Dane pochodzące z Centrum Badań Opinii Społecznej wskazują, że dziewięciu na dziesięciu dorosłych Polaków stosuje suplementację, a sportowcy wielokrotnie sięgają po kilka suplementów jednocześnie. Korzystanie z suplementów zależy przede wszystkim od rodzaju uprawianej dyscypliny sportowej i wzrasta wraz z intensywnością treningu oraz wiekiem respondentów. Opublikowane dane sugerują również, że sportowcy są skłonni przyjmować suplementy bez gromadzenia wiarygodnych informacji o zawartych w nich substancjach aktywnych. Dlatego w historii spor…
Zachowania przedsiębiorcze Polaków i formy wspomagania rozwoju przedsiębiorczości w Polsce
2016
Przemiany społeczno-gospodarcze w Polsce po 1989 roku znalazły odzwierciedlenie w zmianie postaw Polaków związanych z przedsiębiorczością i innowacyjnością. Brak osobistych doświadczeń w tym zakresie i swego rodzaju eksperymentowanie z przedsiębiorczością stały się okazją do uruchomienia różnych form wparcia tego typu aktywności i jej wykorzystania w rozwoju społeczno-gospodarczym regionu i kraju. Skuteczność ich uruchomienia wymaga zbudowania spójnej polityki przedsiębiorczości, innowacyjności i rozwoju podmiotów sektora MŚP, opartej na działaniach administracji publicznej, biznesu, nauki i edukacji. W opracowaniu wykorzystano analizę wyników międzynarodowego badania Global Entrepreneurshi…
The Hexameric Resorcinarene Capsule as a Brønsted Acid Catalyst for the Synthesis of Bis(heteroaryl)methanes in a Nanoconfined Space
2019
Herein, we show that the hexameric resorcinarene capsule C is able to catalyze the formation of bis(heteroaryl)methanes by reaction between pyrroles or indoles and carbonyl compounds (α-ketoesters or aldehydes) in excellent yields and selectivity. Our results suggest that the capsule can play a double catalytic role as a H-bond catalyst, for the initial activation of the carbonyl substrate, and as a Bronsted acid catalyst, for the dehydration of the intermediate alcohol.
Constant inner potential DFT for modelling electrochemical systems under constant potential and bias
2021
Electrochemical interfaces and reactions play a decisive role in e.g. clean energy conversion but understanding their complex chemistry remains an outstanding challenge. Constant potential or grand canonical ensemble (GCE) simulations are indispensable for unraveling the properties of electrochemical processes as a function of the electrode potential. Currently, constant electrode potential calculations at the density functional theory (DFT) level are carried out by fixing the Fermi level of the simulation cell. However, the Fermi level from DFT calculations does does not always reflect the experimentally controlled electrode potential or describe the thermodynamic independent variable in G…
Study of thermoelectric magnetohydrodynamic convection on solute redistribution during laser additive manufacturing
2020
Abstract Melt pools formed in laser additive manufacturing (AM) are subject to large thermal gradients, resulting in the formation of thermoelectric currents due to the Seebeck effect. When in the presence of an external magnetic field, a Lorentz force is formed which drives fluid flow in the melt pool. This Thermoelectric Magnetohydrodynamics (TEMHD) phenomenon, can have a significant impact on the melt pool morphology and can alter the microstructural evolution of the solidification process. By coupling steady-state mesoscopic melt pool calculations to a microscopic solidification model, predictions of the resulting microstructure for multiple deposited layers have been obtained. The resu…
Phonons in MoSe2/WSe2 van der Waals heterobilayer
2021
We report first-principles calculations of the structural and vibrational properties of the synthesized two-dimensional van der Waals heterostructures formed by single-layers dichalcogenides MoSe2 and WSe2. We show that, when combining these systems in a periodic two-dimensional heterostructures, the intrinsic phonon characteristics of the free-standing constituents are to a large extent preserved but, furthermore, exhibit shear and breathing phonon modes that are not present in the individual building blocks. These peculiar modes depend strongly on the weak vdW forces and has a great contibution to the thermal properties of the layered materials. Besides these features, the departure of fl…
