Thermodynamics of competing oxidation reactions of allyl methyl disulfide by hydrogen peroxide: a first principle molecular computational study on th…
2008
Allyl methyl disulfide, a peroxide scavenger, was studied together with three isomeric (two sulfoxides and one epoxide) forms of its mono-oxidized products. After a full conformational study of the reactant and three isomeric oxidized forms, the geometries were optimized at B3LYP/6-31G (d) level of theory. The epoxide form turned and to be more stable than either one of the two isomeric sulfoxides. Changes for Thermodynamic functions of oxidation reactions were calculated and from the δGreaction values the equilibrium constant for the interconversions of the oxidized products were estimated. Bader-type AIM analyses were performed on the electron density, computed at the B3LYP/6-311++G (d,p)…

The visual principle and the correlation between teaching of the Catholic religion and art education in Polish school
2017
Contemporary culture – as already noted – is becoming more and more visual. Contemporary catechesis, referring to its rich, centuries-long experience, should also use different types of images. The first part of this article presents the visual principle as one of basic educating principles, and the second part presents the correlation between the teaching of Catholic religion, and art education in Polish schools. One specific example of using religious painting are in textbooks. Masterpieces of painting, created during centuries and expressing particular desires of their creators, still remain an important inspiration, among others, to the religious search. Faith, though strongly anchored …
Integrating risk management tools for regional forest planning : an interactive multiobjective value at risk approach
2018
In this paper, we present an approach employing multiobjective optimization to support decision making in forest management planning under risk. The primary objectives are biodiversity and timber cash flow, evaluated from two perspectives: the expected value and the value-at-risk (VaR). In addition, the risk level for both the timber cash flow and biodiversity values are included as objectives. With our approach, we highlight the trade-off between the expected value and the VaR, as well as between the VaRs of the two objectives of interest. We employ an interactive method in which a decision maker iteratively provides preference information to find the most preferred management plan and lea…
Singular distributed parameter systems
1993
The paper deals with the distributed parameter systems described by coupled partial differential equations with singular matrix coefficients. Initial-boundary-value problems are considered in the light of both singular 1d systems theory and the Fourier approach to distributed parameter systems. The method presented in this paper gives the possibility of determining acceptable initial-boundary conditions. An illustrative example is given.
Strange meson production at high density and temperature
2010
The properties of strange mesons ($K$, $\bar K$ and $\bar K^*$) in dense matter are studied using a unitary approach in coupled channels for meson-baryon scattering. The kaon-nucleon interaction incorporates $s$- and $p$-wave contributions within a chiral model whereas the interaction of $\bar K^*$ with nucleons is obtained in the framework of the local hidden gauge formalism. The in-medium solution for the scattering amplitude accounts for Pauli blocking effects, mean-field binding on baryons, and meson self-energies. We obtain the $K$, $\bar K$ and $\bar K^*$ (off-shell) spectral functions in the nuclear medium and study their behaviour at finite density, temperature and momentum. We also…
Influence of Ad Congruence and Social Cues on the Probability of Choosing a Restaurant
2020
Abstract. Information processing of digital content includes conscious and un-conscious processes, memory, attitudes, and emotions and moods. Build up into the Heuristic‐Systematic Model, that states that persuasion can occur through a systematic or heuristic way, this research explores the effect of social media (SM) ratings and the ad content embedded in the SM website. Online ratings (part of the user-generated content (UGC) in SM platforms) are often heuristics cues. Subtle forms of congruence, such as the matching category between a restaurant advertiser and the third-party ad, as well as UGC, could have an impact on con-sumers’ attitudes towards the former. However, research on …
Gender Confirmation Surgery: Guiding Principles
2016
Abstract Background At this time, no formal training or educational programs exist for surgeons or surgery residents interested in performing gender confirmation surgeries. Aim To propose guiding principles designed to aid with the development of formal surgical training programs focused on gender confirmation surgery. Methods We use expert opinion to provide a “first of its kind” framework for training surgeons to care for transgender and gender nonconforming individuals. Outcomes We describe a multidisciplinary treatment model that describes an educational philosophy and the institution of quality parameters. Results This article represents the first step in the development of a structure…

Molecular Motion, Defect Structures and Phase Transitions in Oligomer Crystals
1983
Defect structures in the high temperature modifications of oligomer crystals can generally be discribed as a superposition of chain rotations, longitudinal shifts of the molecules and the occurrence of conformational defects. Applying a suitable combination of experimental techniques it is possible to discriminate between the different components of disorder. This is demonstrated in a discussion of results obtained on n-alkanes, cycloalkanes and perfluoro-n-alkanes.
