Contribution of Ternary Reaction to Pd Sorption on MX-80 in Na-Ca-Cl Solution at High Ionic Strength by Shinya Nagasaki, Justin Riddoch, Joshua Racette

“…This suggests that the contribution of other ternary surface complexations such as ≡S-OH +  Pd2++xCl-↔ ≡S-OPdClxx-1-+H+ (x = 1, 2 and 3) to Pd sorption in Na-Ca-Cl-ClO4 solution with ionic strength = 4 M was negligibly small.…”

Internal control systems and financial accountability in Uganda: A case of selected districts in western Uganda by Eton, Marus, Caroline Murezi, Fabian, Mwosi, Benard, Patrick Ogwel

“…The study found out that the relationship between internal control systems and financial accountability in local governments appeared to be weak, and the actual contribution of internal control systems in the financial operations of the district is negligible. The study however, revealed that internal control system is inadequate in accounting for the staffing gaps in local governments and the untimely release of financial reports. …”

The Principle of Invariant Stress of the Surrounding Rock of the Hole under the Condition of Equal Pressure in the Deep Rock Mass by Xiangye Wu, Jingya Wang, Jingang Li, Jianwei Li, Tao Xu, Eryu Wang

“…The study results showed the following. (1) In the current mining depth range, it is difficult to reach the limit of 5 times the hole radius under the condition of invariant pressure of deep rock mass, and it has a significant impact on the near field and relatively small impact on the far field, reflecting the localization effect of the stress influence range. (2) The increase of stress influence range mainly moves outward with the increase of plastic zone range, and its growth slope is low and tends to be horizontal, and the increase amount is negligible. (3) When the failure range of the plastic zone of the hole is small, the influence range of the stress does not change itself, which reflects the stress invariability of the small-scale failure of the surrounding rock of the hole. …”

Frost Heave of Irrigation Canals in Seasonal Frozen Regions by Jian Xu, Qinze Wang, Jiulong Ding, Yanfeng Li, Songhe Wang, Yugui Yang

“…Besides, the layered settlement observation reveals that frost heave dominates the total deformation while creep, the universal source of deformation, accounts for a negligible proportion. A practical model was proposed based on a simple theoretical model for heat-water coupled transfer in a partially saturated medium and was numerically implemented in COMSOL. …”

Land drainage functioning and hydrological impacts in rural catchments: model development and field experiments by Zimmer, Daniel, Tournebize, Julien, Bouarfa, Sami, Kao, Cyril, Lesaffre, Benoît

“…For values of $\sigma >1$, the buffer role of the water table is negligible. In that case approx. 13% of the water table recharge contributes to the flow rate, which is shown to explain the observed disconnection between water table elevations and peak flow rates at the outlet of classic agricultural drainage systems and to predict these peak flow rates accurately. …”

Antioxidative Activity of Ferrocenes Bearing 2,6-Di-Tert-Butylphenol Moieties by E. R. Milaeva, S. I. Filimonova, N. N. Meleshonkova, L. G. Dubova, E. F. Shevtsova, S. O. Bachurin, N. S. Zefirov

“…The activity of N-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)iminomethylferrocene (1), for instance, was 88.4%, which was higher than the activity of a known antioxidant 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (BHT) (48.5%), whereas the activity of N-phenyl-iminomethylferrocene 2 was almost negligible −2.9%. The data obtained demonstrate that the compounds with 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol moiety are significantly more active than the corresponding phenyl analogues in the in vitro study of lipid peroxidation in rat brain homogenate. …”
