The Event Structure of Motion Perception
2004
Motion perception on the basis of optic flow is often studied using purely perceptual response paradigms such as forced choice preferences, and using straightforward motor responses such as simple stereotypical reaction times. Here we argue for a more complex perspective that takes into account the event structure of ecological motion perception. In particular, we hope to convince the reader that the would-be perceptual response to a motion stimulus is noticeably modified be the type of response that is required from the actor. We will argue that our actions modify our perception and more precisely, that the planning component of intended actions influence processing of time critical motion…
Indemnización y trabajador en excedencia afectado en expediente de regulación de empleo
2021
espanolEn este trabajo se realiza un analisis de los derechos del trabajador en excedencia voluntaria que se encuentra afectado en un expediente de regulacion de empleo, concretamente, del derecho a recibir la correspondiente indemnizacion por despido colectivo o no. La doctrina judicial y jurisprudencial ha negado que el trabajador excedente incurso en un expediente de regulacion de empleo tenga derecho a la misma. No obstante, ello va unido a la posicion que se tenga sobre la naturaleza juridica de la excedencia voluntaria, aspecto debatido entre la doctrina, tanto cientifica como judicial. En este sentido, una linea doctrinal ha considerado que la excedencia voluntaria tiene un caracter …
The photophysics and photochemistry of cofacial free base and metallated bisporphyrins held together by covalent architectures
2007
Abstract This review focuses on the photophysical properties of bisporphyrin systems held in a face-to-face configuration by covalent bonds via flexible or rigid spacers and metal–metal bonds. The cofacial arrangement induces intramolecular bismacrocycle interactions promoting basic photophysical events such as excitonic interactions and energy and electron transfers. These events are relevant to mimic light harvesting and reactor devices known for photosynthesis in plants, and can be monitored by luminescence and flash photolysis methods.
The influence of Coulomb interaction screening on the excitons in disordered two-dimensional insulators.
2021
AbstractWe study the joint effect of disorder and Coulomb interaction screening on the exciton spectra in two-dimensional (2D) structures. These can be van der Waals structures or heterostructures of organic (polymeric) semiconductors as well as inorganic substances like transition metal dichalcogenides. We consider 2D screened hydrogenic problem with Rytova–Keldysh interaction by means of so-called fractional Scrödinger equation. Our main finding is that above synergy between screening and disorder either destroys the exciton (strong screening) or promote the creation of a bound state, leading to its collapse in the extreme case. Our second finding is energy levels crossing, i.e. the degen…
Unveiling the Intramolecular Ionic Diels–Alder Reactions within Molecular Electron Density Theory
2021
The intramolecular ionic Diels–Alder (IIDA) reactions of two dieniminiums were studied within the Molecular Electron Density Theory (MEDT) at the ωB97XD/6-311G(d,p) computational level. Topological analysis of the electron localization function (ELF) of dieniminiums showed that their electronic structures can been seen as the sum of those of butadiene and ethaniminium. The superelectrophilic character of dieniminiums accounts for the high intramolecular global electron density transfer taking place from the diene framework to the iminium one at the transition state structures (TSs) of these IIDA reactions, which are classified as the forward electro density flux. The activation enthalpy ass…
Interaction of Mo(CO) 6 and its derivative fragments with the Cu(001) surface: Influence on the decomposition process
2014
A theoretical study on the adsorption and decomposition of molybdenum carbonyl on the copper (001) surface is reported. The adsorption structures and energies of Mo(CO)n molecules (n = 1 … 6) are computed systematically using density functional theory with Van der Waals corrections. By analyzing the energies of the various conformations, the main factors that determine the stable adsorption geometry are identified. Insight into the thermodynamics of decomposition is gained by calculating the reaction energy for dissociation of Mo(CO)n into Mo(CO)n−1 and CO. In the gas phase, this reaction is highly endothermic for all n. On the Cu surface, however, removal of the first CO group (n = 6) beco…
On numerical simulation of electromagnetic field effects in the combustion process
2018
This paper deals with a simplified model taking into account the interplay of compressible, laminar, axisymmetric flow and the electrodynamical effects due to Lorentz force’s action on the combustion process in a cylindrical pipe. The combustion process with Arrhenius kinetics is modelled by a single step exothermic chemical reaction of fuel and oxidant. We analyze non-stationary PDEs with 6 unknown functions: the 3 components of velocity, density, concentration of fuel and temperature. For pressure the ideal gas law is used. For the inviscid flow approximation ADI method is used. Some numerical results are presented.
The Reinforcement Effect of Strain Gauges Embedded in Low Modulus Materials
2013
The reinforcement effect of electrical resistance strain gauges is well-described in the literature, especially for strain gauges installed on surface. This paper considers the local reinforcement effect of strain gauges embedded within low Young modulus materials. In particular, by using a simple theoretical model, already used for strain gauges installed on the surface, it proposes a simple formula that allows the user to evaluate the local reinforcement effect of a generic strain gauge embedded on plastics, polymer composites, etc. The theoretical analysis has been integrated by numerical and experimental analyses, which confirmed the reliability of the proposed model.
On the Stiffness and the Reinforcement Effect of Electrical Resistance Strain Gauges
2006
The reinforcement effect of a strain gauge installed on low modulus materials can be significant. The increasing use of low modulus materials requires therefore the evaluation of such effect. This paper concerns the relationship between the local reinforcement effect and the strain gauge stiffness. The conclusion is that the gauge stiffness alone does not allow the user a thorough evaluation of the reinforcement effect.
Experimental validation of a distribution theory based analysis of the effect of manufacturing tolerances on permanent magnet synchronous machines
2017
An experimental study on the effect of permanent magnet tolerances on the performances of a Tubular Linear Ferrite Motor is presented in this paper. The performances that have been investigated are: cogging force, end effect cogging force and generated thrust. It is demonstrated that: 1) the statistical variability of the magnets introduces harmonics in the spectrum of the cogging force; 2) the value of the end effect cogging force is directly linked to the values of then remanence field of the external magnets placed on the slider; 3) the generated thrust and its statistical distribution depend on the remanence field of the magnets placed on the translator.
