Palladium (II) and platinum (II) complexes of bis(4-methoxyphenyltelluro) methane. Crystal structure of [{meso-(4-MeOC6H4Te)2CH2} (Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2) PD(II)]-(ClO4)2· 4H2O and [meso-(4-MeOC6H4Te)2CH2]Pd(II)Cl2
(1997)Palladium (II) and platinum (II) complexes of the chelating ditelluroether ligand, (MeOC6H4Te)2CH2, have been prepared and characterised by IR, UV-Vis and multinuclear (1H, 125Te{1H}, 195Pt{1H}) NMR spectroscopy and chemical ... -
Palladium capped samarium thin films as potential hydrogen sensors
(2004)We show here that a palladium capped samarium film at room temperature can be used as an efficient sensor material for hydrogen detection. As low as 194 ppm of hydrogen gas can be detected without any cross sensitivity ... -
A parallel mesh chopping algorithm for a class of two-point boundary value problems
(1998)A parallel algorithm for the class of two-point boundary value problems y″ = f(x,y), y(0) = A, y(1) = B with and continous on [0,1] × (−∞, ∞) is presented. Using an idea similar to that in [1], we divide [0,1] into p ... -
Parallel search-and-learn technique for solving large scale travelling-salesperson problems
(1994)Parallel processing has traditionally been used to achieve higher speed while solving computational problems of large size. The greater availability of parallel and distributed computing opens yet another dimension, where ... -
A parallel search-and-learn technique for solving large scale TSP
(1993)Describes a parallel search-and-learn technique for obtaining high quality solutions to the traveling salesperson problem (TSP). The combinatorial search space is decomposed so that multiple processors can simultaneously ... -
Parallel techniques for solving large scale travelling salesperson problems
(1992)As a hard combinatorial optimization problem, the travelling salesperson problem (TSP) has been of pedagogical interest for more than 50 years. More recently, the problem has generated a great deal of practical interest ... -
Parallelization of symmetry detection algorithms on a network of workstations
(1997)Detection of spatial symmetry is useful in several computer vision applications. Due to the real-time nature of the applications, it is important that symmetry detection algorithms be computationally efficient. Sequential ... -
Parametric decay instabilities of the fast wave in the lower hybrid frequency regime
(1991)Three possible delay instabilities of the fast wave in the lower hybrid frequency regime are presented. It has been considered that a fast wave may decay into a high-frequency, lower hybrid wave and a low-frequency wave, ... -
Parametric studies of a greenhouse for summer conditions
(1998)We apply an analytical expression to the plants and enclosed air in a greenhouse for various design parameters and a given climatic condition. A numerical method has been used to validate an analytical expression for the ... -
Parametric studies of active regenerative solar still
(1993)An active regenerative solar still is analysed in this paper on the basis of energy balances for its different components. Analytical expressions are derived for water and glass temperatures, daily yield and thermal ... -
Parametric study of a greenhouse by using Runge-Kutta methods
(1999)This communication presents the analysis for a greenhouse using Runge-Kutta methods. The energy balance equations have been written considering the effects of evaporation from the plant, conduction through the ground, ... -
Parametric study of a reverse flat plate absorber cabinet dryer:a new concept
(1997)In this communication, the concept of reverse flat plate collector has been used as a heating medium of air for the drying of agricultural products in a cabinet dryer. The reverse flat plate absorber is a non-concentrating ... -
