The average ionization energy, [Formula: see text], is introduced and is demonstrated to be useful as a guide to chemical reactivity in aromatic systems. [Formula: see text] is rigorously defined within the framework of self-consistent-field molecular orbital (SCF-MO) theory and can be interpreted as the average energy needed to ionize an electron at any point in the space of a molecule.

Abstract:
AbstractThe chapter is devoted to the analysis of the features of local structural rearrangementsin nanostructured materialsunder shear loadingand nanoindentation. The study was carried out using molecular dynamics-based computer simulation. In particular, we investigated the features of symmetric tilt grain boundary migration in bcc and fcc metals under shear loading. The main emphasis was on identifying atomic mechanisms responsible for the migration of symmetric tilt grain boundaries. We revealed that grain boundaries of this type can move with abnormally high velocities up to several hundred meters per second. The grain boundary velocity depends on the shear rate and grain boundary structure. It is important to note that the migration of grain boundary does not lead to the formation of structural defects. We showed that grain boundary moves in a pronounced jump-like manner as a result of a certain sequence of self-consistent displacements of grain boundary atomic planes and adjacent planes. The number of atomic planes involved in the migration process depends on the structure of the grain boundary. In the case of bcc vanadium, five planes participate in the migration of the Σ5(210)[001] grain boundary, and three planes determine the Σ5(310)[001] grain boundary motion. The Σ5(310)[001] grain boundary in fcc nickel moves as a result of rearrangements of six atomic planes. The stacking order of atomic planes participating in the grain boundary migration can change. A jump-like manner of grain boundary motion may be divided into two stages. The first stage is a long time interval of stress increase during shear loading. The grain boundary is motionless during this period and accumulates elastic strain energy. This is followed by the stage of jump-like grain boundary motion, which results in rapid stress drop. The related study was focused on understanding the atomic rearrangements responsible for the nucleation of plasticity near different crystallographic surfaces of fcc and bcc metals under nanoindentation. We showed that a wedge-shaped region, which consists of atoms with a changed symmetry of the nearest environment, is formed under the indentation of the (001) surface of the copper crystallite. Stacking faults arise in the (111) atomic planes of the contact zone under the indentation of the (011) surface. Their escape on the side free surface leads to a step formation. Indentation of the (111) surface is accompanied by nucleation of partial dislocations in the contact zone subsequent formation of nanotwins. The results of the nanoindentation of bcc iron bicrystal show that the grain boundary prevents the propagation of structural defects nucleated in the contact zone into the neighboring grain.

Abstract:
In this chapter, several examples of NN fitting of databases obtained using either ab initio electronic structure methods or an empirical potential will be discussed. The objective of this presentation is not to provide a complete and comprehensive review of the field nor is it to acquaint the reader with the details of the reaction dynamics of the particular systems employed as examples. It is rather to provide a clear picture of the power and limitations of NN methods for the investigation of reaction dynamics. We begin with a brief overview of the literature in the field. Neural networks provide a powerful method to effect the fitting of an ensemble of potential energy points in a database. In 1993, Blank et al. employed an NN to fit data derived from an empirical potential model for CO chemisorbed on a Ni(111) surface. Two years later, these same investigators also examined the interaction potential of H2 on a Si(100)-2 × 1 surface using a data set comprising 750 energies computed using local density functional theory. To the best of our knowledge, these were the first two examples in which NNs were employed to provide the PES for a dynamics study. Hobday et al. have investigated the energies of C-H systems by using a Tersoff potential form in which the three-body term is replaced by an NN comprising five input nodes, one hidden layer with six nodes, and an output layer. In this work, the five input elements are computed by consideration of the bond type, i.e., C-C or C-H, the three-body bond angle θ, which is input to the NN in the form (1 + cos θ)2, the connectivity of the local environment, and the second neighbor information. The method was applied to carbon clusters and a wide variety of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, aromatics, and radicals. Comparison of the atomization energies obtained using the NN potential surfaces with experimental values showed the errors for 12 alkanes, 13 alkenes, 4 alkynes, 7 aromatics, and 12 radicals to lie in the ranges zero to 0.3 eV (alkanes), 0.1 to 1.5 eV (alkenes), 0 to 0.5 eV (alkynes), zero to 1.0 eV (aromatics), and zero to 2.8 eV (radicals).

Abstract:
In Chapters 4 and 5, we demonstrated that local structures and charge distributions have an enormous impact on the equilibrium constants, trajectories, and kinetics of reactions involving soluble oxide precursors. In this chapter, we highlight those features that make reactions on extended oxide surfaces either similar to or dramatically different from the reactions documented in hydrolysis diagrams for each metal cation (see Chapter 5). We first describe oxide surface structures and then discuss how these structures impact both acid–base and ligand-exchange phenomena. In addition to dense oxides, we also introduce some of the chemistry associated with layered materials. Lamellar materials are important from both a fundamental and technological perspective, because water and ions can readily penetrate such structures and provide conditions under which almost every oxygen anion is at an oxide–water interface (see Chapter 10 and Chapter 11). This chapter focuses on oxides containing octahedral cations. The distinctive chemistry of oxides based on tetrahedral cations, including the clay minerals and the zeolites, are the focus of Part Five. The structures of bulk oxides were introduced in Chapter 2. However, for many oxides, the surface structures that interact with aqueous solutions are substantially different from structures found in the bulk. Here, we introduce the basic principles of oxide surfaces that make them chemically active. As a starting point, consider ideal oxide surfaces containing +2 octahedral cations. Pristine oxide surfaces can be created by cleaving perfect crystals in an ultrahigh-vacuum environment. The creation of new surfaces requires an expenditure of energy corresponding to the cohesive energy of the solid, which in turn represents the energy required to break every bond along a given fracture plane. For MgO, the Mg−O bond energy is 380 kJ/mole. Each surface created contains 1.4.1019 oxygen atoms/m2, or 2.4.10−5 moles of bonds. Because two surfaces are created in the fracture event, the initial interfacial energy of each resulting MgO surface is (1/2)(380 kJ/mole)/(2.4_10−5 mole/m2 )=4560 mJ/m2.

Abstract:
Greenhouses generally exhibit a greater degree of thermal radiation interaction with the surroundings than other buildings. A number of greenhouse thermal environment analyses have handled the thermal radiation exchange in different ways. Thermal radiation exchange at greenhouse surfaces is of great interest for energy balance. It dominates the heat transfer mechanisms especially between the cover material surface and the surrounding atmosphere. At these surfaces, the usual factors of interest are local temperatures and energy fluxes. The greenhouse surfaces are inclined and oriented in various ways and thus can influence the radiation exchange. The scope of this work is determination of the thermal radiation exchange models as well as effects of surface inclination and orientation on the radiation exchange between greenhouse surfaces and sky. Apart from the surface design and the thermal properties of the cover, the key meteorological parameters influencing longwave and shortwave radiation models were considered in detail. For the purpose of evaluating surface inclination and orientation effects, four identical thermal boxes were developed to simulate the roof and wall greenhouse surfaces. The surface temperatures and atmospheric parameters were noted under all-sky conditions (clear-sky and overcast). Differences in terms of surface-to-air temperature differences at the exposed roof and wall surfaces as influenced by surface inclination and orientation are discussed in this work. Overall, the findings of this work form a basis for decisions on greenhouse design improvements and climate control interventions in the horticultural industry.

Abstract:
High performance turbine airfoils are typically cooled with a combination of internal cooling channels and impingement/film cooling. In such applications, the jets impinge against a target surface, and then exit along the channel formed by the jet plate, target plate, and side walls. Local convection coefficients are the result of both the jet impact, as well as the channel flow produced from the exiting jets. Numerous studies have explored the effects of jet array and channel configurations on both target and jet plate heat transfer coefficients. However, little work has been done in examinin

Abstract:
A numerical analysis of the flow field in rough microchannel is carried out decomposing the computational physical domain into kinetic and continuum sub-domains. Each domain size is determined by the value of a proper threshold parameter, based on the local Knudsen number and local gradients of macro-parameters. This switching parameter is computed from a preliminary Navier–Stokes solution throughout the whole physical domain. The solution is then advanced in time simultaneously in both kinetic and continuum domains: the coupling is achieved by matching half fluxes at the interface of the kine

Abstract:
Heterogeneous nucleation of water plays an important role in wide range of natural and industrial processes. Though heterogeneous nucleation of water is ubiquitous and everyday experience, spatial control of this important phenomenon is extremely difficult. Here we show, for the first time, that spatial control in the heterogeneous nucleation of water can be achieved by manipulating the local nucleation energy barrier and nucleation rate via the modification of the local intrinsic wettability of a surface by patterning hybrid hydrophobic-hydrophilic regions on a surface. Such ability to contro

Abstract:
This paper presents a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study of a building-integrated photovoltaic thermal (BIPV/T) system, which generates both electricity and thermal energy. The conjugate heat transfer in the BIPV/T system cavity is studied with a 2-D CFD model. The k-ε model is used to simulate the turbulent flow and convective heat transfer in the cavity, in addition to buoyancy effect. Longwave radiation between boundary surfaces is also modeled. Experimental measurements taken in a full scale outdoor test facility at Concordia University are generally in good agreement with the CFD mo

Abstract:
We have previously shown that, for non-adhesive conditions, an atomic scale contact can be adequately represented by a continuum analysis despite the physical shortcomings at this scale. Here we have extended the approach to include effects of the adhesive forces that become significant at this level of contact. Adhesive forces are obtained directly from the surface separation across the contact rather than through a total surface energy approach; this allows a complete representation of local surface features. The pull-off characteristics and pressure profiles have been obtained for several d
