Frank Ragonese, company chairman, recently visited the site and met with Sandy and Al. Frank emphasized his interest in improving ESH performance. Our corporate ESH performance, while acceptable, has failed to improve in the last three years , Frank stated, I expect this integration project to help us save much of the 10 million accidents and other claims are costing us each year. ... [Pg.119]

When Mendel eff announced the Periodic Table of the Elements, he frankly stated, It has been evolved independently of any conception as to the nature of the elements. It does not in the least originate in the idea of a unique matter and it has no historical connection with that relic of the torments of classical thought/ He was alluding to the ancient idea of the unity of all matter. Plato had said Matter is one." Sporadically, this idea of a primordial substance from which everything else originated had been enunciated by philosophers and pseudo-scientists. The world paid little attention to their abstract conclusions. [Pg.197]

There is little doubt that the brassinosteroids can have a major effect on world grain markets and on the increased production of horticultural crops utilizing the same land area. This means reduced energy costs and that, coupled to the apparently environmentally safe aspects of these compounds, makes them ideal candidates for industrial development. But a number of critical problems remain and it seems that there will be limited fundamental examination with the brassinosteroids unless they are used practically. Frankly stated, funds generated from the sales of marketable brassinosteroids will drive all the other studies. While this is a critical time in the development of the brassinosteroids, their future promises to be interesting politically, scientifically, and practically. To quote an old aphorism, to the victor will go the laurels. [Pg.342]

Thus one can frankly state that SILP and SCILL technologies do not only promote the use of ILs, they have paved new ways of thinking about the rational modification of technical surfaces. This opens a huge potential for future research and development Let us make the best out of it ... [Pg.465]

Life s maintain that he held wholly orthodox opinions about the nature of God (M). It was said too that he was frightened of phantoms and demons (N). They replied that this was a fabrication. They frankly stated that in his youth he had loved women and a little wine/" and that nevertheless he lived a bachelor s life in order not to be distracted from his studies in philosophy. He reflected far more than he read [(O)] and was never concerned with acquiring a large library. He died on 4 December 1679 the house of the earl of Devonshire after an illness of six weeks.

For bound state systems, eigenfunctions of the nuclear Hamiltonian can be found by diagonalization of the Hamiltonian matiix in Eq. (11). These functions are the possible nuclear states of the system, that is, the vibrational states. If these states are used as a basis set, the wave function after excitation is a superposition of these vibrational states, with expansion coefficients given by the Frank-Condon overlaps. In this picture, the dynamics in Figure 4 can be described by the time evolution of these expansion coefficients, a simple phase factor. The periodic motion in coordinate space is thus related to a discrete spectrum in energy space. [Pg.264]

The solvation thermodynamics have been interpreted in a classical study by Frank and Evans in terms of the iceberg model . This model states that the water molecules around an nonpolar solute show an increased quasi-solid structuring. This pattern would account for the strongly negative... [Pg.14]

Frank C. Whitmore (1887-1947) was born in North Attleboro. Massachusetts, and received his Ph.D. at Harvard working with E. L. Jackson. He was professor of chemistry at Minnesota, Northwestern, and the Pennsylvania State University. Nicknamed "Rocky," he wrote an influential advanced textbook in organic chemistry. [Pg.200]

Professors Harry Frank (University of Connecticut), Steven Shaw (Montana State University), Greg Sotzing (University of Connecticut), and Leslie Sperling (Lehigh University) graciously consented to write essays on their research interests. Their essays are interesting and understandable to freshmen (no mean feat ). [Pg.727]

Kolb and Franke have demonstrated how surface reconstruction phenomena can be studied in situ with the help of potential-induced surface states using electroreflectance (ER) spectroscopy.449,488,543,544 The optical properties of reconstructed and unreconstructed Au(100) have been found to be remarkably different. In recent model calculations it was shown that the accumulation of negative charges at a metal surface favors surface reconstruction because the increased sp-electron density at the surface gives rise to an increased compressive stress between surface atoms, forcing them into a densely packed structure.532... [Pg.86]

As a compound water is remarkable. It is the only inorganic liquid to occur naturally on earth, and it is the only substance found in nature in all three physical states, solid, liquid and vapour (Franks, 1983). It is the most readily available solvent and plays a vital role in the continuation of life on earth. Water circulates continuously in the enviromnent by evaporation from the hydrosphere and subsequent precipitation from the atmosphere. This overall process is known as the hydrologic cycle. Reports estimate that the atmosphere contains about 6 x 10 litres of water, and this is cycled some 37 times a year to give an annual total precipitation of 224 X 10 litres (Franks, 1983 Nicholson, 1985). [Pg.32]

To answer this question we need to consider the kind of physical techniques that are used to study the solid state. The main ones are based on diffraction, which may be of electrons, neutrons or X-rays (Moore, 1972 Franks, 1983). In all cases exposure of a crystalline solid to a beam of the particular type gives rise to a well-defined diffraction pattern, which by appropriate mathematical techniques can be interpreted to give information about the structure of the solid. When a liquid such as water is exposed to X-rays, electrons or neutrons, diffraction patterns are produced, though they have much less regularity and detail it is also more difficult to interpret them than for solids. Such results are taken to show that liquids do, in fact, have some kind of long-range order which can justifiably be referred to as a structure . [Pg.34]

Neutron scattering has been used for studying the state of solvation of ions in aqueous solution (Enderby et al., 1987 Salmon, Neilson Enderby, 1988). These studies have shown that a distinct shell of water molecules of characteristic size surrounds each ion in solution. This immediate hydration shell was called zone A by Frank Wen (1957) they also postulated the existence of a zone B, an outer sphere of molecules, less firmly attached, but forming part of the hydration layer around a given ion. The evidence for the existence of zone B lies in the thermodynamics of... [Pg.42]

An alternative approach to the solution of the system dynamic equations, is by the natural cause and effect mass transfer process as formulated, within the individual phase balance equations. This follows the general approach, favoured by Franks (1967), since the extractor is now no longer constrained to operate at equilibrium conditions, but achieves this eventual state as a natural consequence of the relative effects of solute accumulation, solute flow in, solute flow out and mass transfer dynamics. [Pg.174]
