A parameters

The Parachor is a parameter used to determine the interfacial tension. It can be estimated by a simple method proposed by Quayle in 1953 ... 

The most informative method of expressing uncertainty in HCIIP or ultimate recovery (UR) is by use of the expectation curve, as introduced in Section 6.2. The high (H) medium (M) and low (L) values can be read from the expectation curve. A mathematical representation of the uncertainty n a parameter (e.g. STOMP) can be defined as... 

Let us consider that equivalent planar OSD are completely characterized by a parameter vector p = where I is the ligament (the distance between the bottom of the OSD and the... 

The existence of this situation (for nonporous solids) explains why the ratio test discussed above and exemplified by the data in Table XVII-3 works so well. Essentially, any isotherm fitting data in the multilayer region must contain a parameter that will be found to be proportional to surface area. In fact, this observation explains the success of Ae point B method (as in Fig. XVII-7) and other single-point methods, since for any P/P value in the characteristic isotherm region, the measured n is related to the surface area of the solid by a proportionality constant that is independent of the nature of the solid. 

Kohn-Sham or Slater exchange was more accurate for realistic systems [H]. Slater suggested that a parameter be introduced that would allow one to vary the exchange between the Slater and Kolm-Sham values [19]. The parameter, a, was often... 

We conclude this section by discussing an expression for the excess chemical potential in temrs of the pair correlation fimction and a parameter X, which couples the interactions of one particle with the rest. The idea of a coupling parameter was mtrodiiced by Onsager [20] and Kirkwood [Hj. The choice of X depends on the system considered. In an electrolyte solution it could be the charge, but in general it is some variable that characterizes the pair potential. The potential energy of the system... 

We inb oduce a closed-path T defined by a parameter X. At the stalling point So, A, = 0 and when the path complete a full cycle, X — p(2tt, in case of circle). 

Each combination of four atoms (A, B. C. and D) is characterized by two parameters, e and e.. As for the CICC, is a parameter that depends on atomic properties and on distances, and is calculated by Eq. (27), with r, again being the sum of bond lengths between atoms on the path with the minimum number of bond counts. However c is now a geometric parameter (dependent on the conformation)...

Molecular m ech an ics tries (o use experirn cn la I data to replace a priori com pu-tation, but in m an y situation s the experirn en tal data is n ot kn own and a parameter is missing. Collecting parameters, verification of their validity, and the relation ship of these molecular mechanics parameters to chemical and structural moieties are all important an d difficult topics. 

In each of the cases abttvc the total barrier heights are tlivitled by the total II iini her of torsion s counted. For example, ethan e uses a parameter V3=2.0/6 for each ofits six torsions, leading to a total barrier of 2.0 hcal/mol. 

In making certain mathematical approximations to the Schrodinger equation, we can equate derived terms directly to experiment and replace dilTiciilL-to-calculate mathematical expressions with experimental values. In other situation s, we introduce a parameter for a mathematical expression and derive values for that parameter by fitting the results of globally calculated results to experiment. Quantum chemistry has developed two groups of researchers ... 

Th e off-diagonal elemen ts represen t the domman t effects of bonding and are set to be proportional to the overlap by a parameter dependent on the two atoms involved in the overlap,... 

S.-i is the overlap integral, and are ionisation potentials for the appropriate orbitals and /J. a is a parameter dependent upon both of the two atoms A and B.
