Choice-oriented behavior

Choice-oriented behavior is not the same as rational behavior. By the former, I simply mean behavior that is sensitive to rewards and punishments. By the latter, I mean behavior that fits into a complex pattern of optimization The behavior must be optimal, given the desires and... 

Computed dipole moments of proteins presented here refer to a particular point within the structures of the proteins named center of diffusion (CD). As is known, a calculated dipole moment depends on the choice of coordinate system origin when the total charge on the molecule is not zero. Experimental values of dipole moments are derived from the orientational behavior of molecules under electric field pulses, which obviously is independent of any coordinate system but can be biased by other factors. For example, Wegener " showed that rotational velocity > driven by the external electric field, E at low Reynold s number can be expressed as... 

The impact of the choice of the substrate to be either gold or silver upon a different molecular orientation of rigid moieties within a SAM was recently demonstrated by Somashekarappa and Sampath [107]. They studied the impact of the different orientation of 2,9,6,23-tetraamino cobalt phtalocyanine bound as a SAM onto silver or gold upon their behavior in electrocatalysis. It was found that the different tilt of the phtalocyanine macrocyles and the consequently different accessibility of the metal surfaces and catalytic center results in a different reaction pathway and oxidation products.

The structure and orientation of the reinforcing fibers in the matrix system are essential for the mechanical properties of the work-piece. The choice of a particular architecture is dependent on multiple factors like drapeabiUty of the fabric, geometry/shape of the workpiece, mechanical requirements, and manufacturing process. Compraients made of unidirectional layers (laminates) are showing the best mechanical properties since the fibers are completely stretched (no undulation). Usually the single layers of a laminate are showing different fiber orientations. This causes anisotropic material behavior in the planar direction. The structure of a multiaxial layered laminate is shown in Fig. 2.
