The Decomposition Pathways of C&#x2084;F&#x2087;N/CO&#x2082; Mixtures in the Presence of Organic Insulator Vapors by Sijie Liu, Xiaolong Li, Wen Wang, Zhenxin Geng, Ying Lin

“…The decomposition mechanism of C4F7N/CO2 mixture in PTFE vapor environment was investigated by using density functional theory (DFT) for quantum chemical calculation. In this study, the structure and vibration frequency of the optimized intermediates were calculated accurately, and the energy of the reactants and intermediates was evaluated by G4 theory method. …”

Sufficient Efficiency Conditions for Vector Ratio Problem on the Second-Order Jet Bundle by Ariana Pitea

“…Motivated by its possible applications in mechanics and mechanical engineering, in our previous published work (Pitea and Postolache, 2011), we initiated an optimization theory for the second-order jet bundle. We considered the problem of minimization of vectors of curvilinear functionals (well known as mechanical work), thought as multitime multiobjective variational problems, subject to PDE and/or PDI constraints. …”

Keynes: The Recent Return of the Master by Robert Skidelsky

“…The formula for this stabilisation policy is based on the lessons of the British economist John Maynard Keynes, which he described after the Great Depression in 1936 in his “General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money”. For the slump but also beyond, Keynes provided insightful policy recommendations that can be applied in the 21st century.…”
