Modeling and Performance Assessment of the Split-Pi Used as a Storage Converter in All the Possible DC Microgrid Scenarios. Part II: Simulation and E…
2021
Bidirectional DC/DC converters such as the Split-pi can be used to integrate an energy storage system (ESS) into a DC microgrid providing manifold benefits. However, this integration deserves careful design because the ESS converter must behave like a stiff voltage generator, a non-stiff voltage generator, or a current generator depending on the microgrid configuration. Part I of this work presented a comprehensive theoretical analysis of the Split-pi used as an ESS converter in all the possible DC microgrid scenarios. Five typical microgrid scenarios were identified. Each of them required a specific state-space model of the Split-pi and a suitable control scheme. The present paper complete…
Photocatalytic and photothermocatalytic applications of cerium oxide-based materials
2020
Abstract Cerium dioxide (CeO2) presents unique properties as the special electronic and optical properties of the 4f electrons, the capacity to form nonstoichiometric oxygen-deficient CeO2 − x oxides, the high oxygen mobility, and the reversible transformation between Ce4 + and Ce3 + that make it interesting for photocatalytic applications. CeO2 is a wide bandgap semiconductor (3.0–3.4 eV), but different approaches as combination with oxides, deposition of noble metals, doping with metal and nonmetal species, and the formation of surface defects have been adopted to extend its absorption towards the visible region with the aim to improve its photocatalytic performance. Cerium oxide-based ma…
A rare example of nickel(ii) chains based on a heteroscorpionate-like ligand with quadruple imidazolyl interactions
2014
The first nickel(ii) complex with the heteroscorpionate-like bridging ligand DIMMAL (2-di1H-2-imidazolylmethylmalonate), [Ni(DIMMAL)(H2O)3]n·3nH2O (1), is a one-dimensional coordination polymer whose structure shows regular Ni(ii) chains with H-bonding inter-chain interactions and a rare example of a Quadruple Imidazolyl Embrace (QIE). The Ni(ii) chain shows a weak antiferromagnetic interaction that can be modelled with a regular S = 1 chain model including a zero field splitting with g = 2.270, J = -1.5 cm(-1) and D = -2.26 cm(-1).
Preparation and structural studies on dibutyltin(IV) complexes with pyridine mono- and dicarboxylic acids
2004
Abstract A number of organotin(IV) complexes with pyridine mono- and dicarboxylic acids (containing ligating –COOH group(s) and aromatic {N} atoms) were prepared in the solid state. The bonding sites of the ligands were determined by means of FT-IR spectroscopic measurements. It was found that in most cases the –COO− groups form bridges between two central {Sn} atoms, thereby leading to polymeric (oligomeric) complexes. On this basis, the experimental 119Sn Mossbauer spectroscopic data were treated with partial quadrupole splitting approximations. The calculations predicted the existence of complexes with octahedral (oh) and trigonal-bipyramidal (tbp) structures, but the formation of comple…
Mössbauer spectroscopic studies on compounds containing tin-cadmium and tin-zinc bonds
1975
The Mossbauer parameters of compounds Ph3Sn MCl · TMED (M = Cd, Zn; TMED = N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine), (Ph3Sn)2CdL2 (L2 = TMED, 2,2′-bipyridine and o-phenanthroline) and (Ph3Sn)2 Zn · TMED have been determined and are discussed in connection with Mossbauer data concerning Ph3SnIV derivatives with other Sn-metal bonds. The isomer shift values suggest a high s character in SnCd and SnZn bonds resulting in deviations from regular tetrahedral environments around tin. Experimental quadrupole splittings and calculated partial quadrupole splitting values indicate reduced donor abilities towards the tin atom of an individual Ph3SnIV moiety by Cd-and Zn(Ph3Sn)1−nClnL2 (i.e., the remaini…
Purely Spectroscopic Determination of the Spin Hamiltonian Parameters in High-Spin Six-Coordinated Cobalt(II) Complexes with Large Zero-Field Splitti…
2019
Accurate determination of the spin Hamiltonian parameters in transition-metal complexes with large zero-field splitting (ZFS) is an actual challenge in studying magnetic and spectroscopic properties of high-spin transition metal complexes. Recent critical papers have convincingly shown that previous determinations of these parameters, based only on the magnetic data, have low accuracy and reliability. A combination of X-band electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and SQUID magnetometry seems to be a more convincing and accurate approach. However, even in this case, the accuracy of the determination of the spin Hamiltonian parameters is strongly limited. In this work, we propose …
DFT Calculations of the Electric Field Gradient at the Tin Nucleus as a Support of Structural Interpretation by119Sn Mössbauer Spectroscopy
2005
DFT calculations, using an all-electron basis set and with full geometry optimization, were performed on 34 Sn(II) and Sn(IV) compounds of known structure and (119)Sn Mössbauer parameters, to obtain the theoretical values of the electric field gradient components, V(xx), V(yy), and V(zz), at the tin nucleus. These were used to determine the quantity V = V(zz)[1+ 1/3((V(xx) - V(yy))/((V(zz))(2)](1/2), for each investigated compound, which is related to the quadrupole splitting (DeltaE) parameter according to DeltaE = 1/2eQV, where e is the electronic charge and Q is the quadrupole moment of the tin nucleus. The linear fitting of the correlation plot of the experimental DeltaE, versus the cor…
The prediction of the nuclear quadrupole splitting of 119Sn Mössbauer spectroscopy data by scalar relativistic DFT calculations.
2006
The electric field gradient components for the tin nucleus of 34 tin compounds of experimentally known structures and Sn-119 Mossbauer spectroscopy parameters were computed at the scalar relativistic density functional theory level of approximation. The theoretical values of the electric field gradient components were used to determine a quantity, V, which is proportional to the nuclear quadrupole splitting parameter (Delta E). In a subsequent linear regression analysis the effective nuclear quadrupole moment, Q, was evaluated. The value of (11.9 +/- 0.1) fm(2) is a significant improvement over the non-relativistic result of (15.2 +/- 4.4) fm(2) and is in agreement with the experimental val…
Crystal structure and mössbauer spectroscopy studies of the ferrimagnetic complex bimetallic salt hexaamminechromium (III) hexachloroferrate (III), […
1992
The crystal and molecular structures of the ferrimagnetic bimetallic complex salt hexaamminechromium(III) hexachloroferrate(III), [Cr(NH3)6][FeCl6], have been determined from single-crystal, three-dimensional x-ray diffraction counter data. The compound crystallizes as orange coloured crystals in the space groupC2/c of the monoclinic system with Z=4 and has cell dimensionsa=11.325(1) A,b=11.387(1) A,c=11.233(1) A, and β=90.83(1)A. The structure was refined by using segmented block diagonal least-squares techniques to discrepancy indices R and Rw of 0.0233 and 0.0285, respectively. The metal ions occupy sites with symmetry $$\bar 1$$ and are nearly octahedrally coordinated. In the [FeCl6]3− …
SMART: Unique splitting-while-merging framework for gene clustering

This is an open-access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original author and source are credited. Successful clustering algorithms are highly dependent on parameter settings. The clustering performance degrades significantly unless parameters are properly set, and yet, it is difficult to set these parameters a priori. To address this issue, in this paper, we propose a unique splitting-while-merging clustering framework, named "splitting merging awareness tactics" (SMART), which does not require any a priori knowledge of either the number …
