For expanding

To solve the Kohn-Sham equations a number of different approaches and strategies have been proposed. One important way in which these can differ is in the choice of basis set for expanding the Kohn-Sham orbitals. In most (but not all) DPT programs for calculating the properties of molecular systems (rather than for solid-state materials) the Kohn-Sham orbitals are expressed as a linear combination of atomic-centred basis functions ... 

Ab initio methods are characterized by the introduction of an arbitrary basis set for expanding the molecular orbitals and then the explicit calculation of all required integrals involving this basis set. 

Eor this example the cost of the battery limits plant is about four times the purchase cost of the equipment. This number is about two for module I-type plants designed and iastalled by the fine chemicals company itself, and about six for expanded module IV-type plants designed and built by contractors.

First-out annuneiators are highly desirable and should provide suffieient points to aeeommodate the speeified alarm and shutdown funetions. Standard features should inelude aeknowledge/silenee, lamp/test, and both audible and visible deviees for general alarm indieation. A dry auxiliary eontaet from the shutdown eireuit must be provided for expander inlet trip valve aetuation. Additional sets of eontaets are useful for other alarm requirements. 

Inspeetion during shutdown showed evidenee of blade erosion and pits loeated on the leading edge and the eoneave side of the trailing edge. For expanders operating at a eonstant speed, the veloeity diagram depends on the absolute speed of the mass earrier. The absolute speed, Cj, may be ealeulated from the nozzle formula ... 

The original proposal stimulated eonsiderable interest. However, beeause tliis was a new applieation for tliis type of faeility, it also raised several questions. Again, previous applieations for expander-driven... 

In a radial-inflow turbine the problems of erosion and exducer blade vibration are prominent. The size of the particles being entrained decreases with the square root of the turbine wheel diameter. Inlet filtration is suggested for expanders in the petrochemical industry. The filter usually has to... 

For expanders, the process engineer should be alert for outlet temperatures in the dew point range. For changes in design parameters, such as for proposed alternate modes of operation, the process engineer is best equipped to track this tendency. 

The basis functions are normally the same as used in wave mechanics for expanding the HF orbitals, see Chapter 5 for details. Although there is no guarantee that the exponents and contraction coefficients determined by the variational procedure for wave functions are also optimum for DFT orbitals, the difference is presumably small since the electron densities derived by both methods are very similar. ... 

This does not include total project coordination or project engineering. (For expanded reference also see [51].)... 

The striking constitution of brevetoxin B, unprecedented at the time of its discovery in 1981, presents a formidable challenge to organic synthesis. The unique and fascinating molecular architecture of brevetoxin B (1), its association with the red tide catastrophes, its potent biological activity, and the prospects for expanding the arsenal of synthetic methods all contributed in roughly equal measure to our decision to pursue a total synthesis of 1. This chapter addresses the efforts that culminated in the total synthesis of brevetoxin B (1 ).6... 

Supply is related to cost. If basic materials become scarce, changes will follow. Thus constraints in the petroleum supply may affect the polymer industry, which is based almost entirely on petrochemicals. We can look for expanded use of paper-based materials to provide factors such as bulk, tensile properties, and thermal resistance combined with the low weights of proper barrier materials. Composites will continue to grow in quantity and complexity. 

The approximately round shape and small size of the suspension beads is useful for some applications such as expandable polystyrene or as an intermediate for further compounding with pigments, other polystyrene beads, etc. Being round, however, they tend to roll, not only causing a safety hazard when spilled on floors but more importantly causing difficulties in some fabricating extruders and molding machines. Except for expandable polystyrene, beads are seldom sold as such but are extruded into pellets.

As each BVMO is limited in substrate specificity, it is crucial to have a large collection of these oxidative biocatalysts available. Except for expanding the scope of possible reactions, a large toolbox of BVMOs would also increase the chance of being able to perform any wanted specific chemo-, regio- and/or enantioselective reaction. This contrasts with the present situation as only a relatively small number of BVMOs can be exploited for biocatalytic purposes. Therefore, it is still crucial to discover or engineer BVMOs with novel biocatalytic properties.

Bardet Also called Samica. A process for expanding mica in order to make it into paper. It is partially dehydrated by heating and the hot product is quenched in alkaline water. After drying, it is immersed in dilute sulfuric acid, which generates gas between the layers, forcing them apart. In this expanded condition it can easily be made into a paper. 

BYAS [Bypass ammonia synthesis] An economical process for expanding existing ammonia synthesis plants by introducing the additional natural gas at an intermediate stage in the process. The additional nitrogen in the air, which has also to be introduced, is removed by PSA. Developed and offered by Humphreys and Glasgow, UK.
