For planar orientation the form is the same, but the two coefficients of the terms are (—1/24) and (1/6) respectively. The linear closure is exact for random orientations, but can be dynamically unstable for intermediate to highly oriented states (Advani and Tucker 1990).

The linear closure approximations are exact for a completely random distribution of fiber orientation, while the quadratic closure approximations are exact for perfect uniaxial ahgnment of the fibers (Advani and Tucker 1987). 

Methylvinyldiazirine (199) rearranges at room temperature in the course of some days. Formation of the linear isomer is followed by electrocyclic ring closure to give 3-methyl-pyrazole. The linear diazo compound could be trapped by its reaction with acids to form esters, while the starting diazirine (199) is inert towards acids (B-71MI50801). 

Figure 4-143 represents a computer-generated plot that demonstrates the effectiveness of eddy current brakes in preventing overspeed of the string. The lower curve assumes the butterfly valve characteristic is linear from 60° open to the closed position. The rate of closure is 3.25 sec. (Butterfly valves are normally used to throttle the expander inlet gas.)... 

Another linearization of the HNC closure leads to the mean spherical approximation (MSA). For a fluid with a hard core, the MSA is... 

Closure liners of pulpboard or cork, unless specially treated with a preservative, foil or wax coating, are often a source of mould contamination for liquid or semi-solid products. A closure with a plastic flowed-in linear is less prone to introduce or support microbial growth than one stuck in with an adhesive, particularly if the latter is based on a natural product such as casein. If required, closures can be sterilized by either formaldehyde or ethylene oxide gas. 

Most of the subsequent steps of tetrapyrrole synthesis are identical in plants, animals, and bacteria. The pathway includes synthesis of the monopyrrole porphobilinogen from two molecules of ALA by the action of ALA dehydratase with the elimination of two molecules of water, followed by the assembling of a linear tetrapyrrole hydroxymethylbilane from fonr molecnles of porphobilinogen, ring closure and two modification reactions of side chains. This produces the first tetrapyrrole macrocycle, uroporphyrinogen HI. Therefore, eight molecules of ALA are necessary to form one tetrapyrrole. 

In the following, we will discuss two-dimensional (2D)-to-3D conversion in this context. However, it should be emphasized that we do so only for the sake of brevity. In reality, none of the conversion programs uhlizes informahon of a 2D image of a chemical structure. Only the information on the atoms of a molecule and how they are cormected is used (i.e. the starhng informahon is the conshtution of the molecule). One could even refer to linear structure representations such as SMILES as one-dimensional. However this is not true since SMILES allows for branches and ring closure which makes its informahon content essentially 2D. Thus, all structure representahons which lack 3D atomic coordinates will in the following simply be referred to as 2D. 

It is important to realize that closure may reduce the rank of the data matrix by one. This is the case with row-closure when n>p, and with colunm-closure when n < p. It is always the case with double-closure. This reduction of the rank by one is the result of a linear dependence between the rows or columns of the table that results from closure of the data matrix. 

The log-linear model (LLM) is closely related to correspondence factor analysis (CFA). Both methods pursue the same objective, i.e. the analysis of the association (or correspondence) between the rows and columns of a contingency table. In CFA this can be obtained by means of double-closure of the data in LLM this is achieved by means of double-centring of the logarithmic data. 

For the same reason as for double-closure, double-centring always reduces the rank of the data matrix by one, as a result of the introduction of a linear dependence among the rows and columns of the data table. 

This closure property is also inherent to a set of differential equations for arbitrary sequences Uk in macromolecules of linear copolymers as well as for analogous fragments in branched polymers. Hence, in principle, the kinetic method enables the determination of statistical characteristics of the chemical structure of noncyclic polymers, provided the Flory principle holds for all the chemical reactions involved in their synthesis. It is essential here that the Flory principle is meant not in its original version but in the extended one [2]. Hence under mathematical modeling the employment of the kinetic models of macro-molecular reactions where the violation of ideality is connected only with the short-range effects will not create new fundamental problems as compared with ideal models. 

It will be clear from the results so far presented that both C5 and C dehydrocyclization products can be formed, with aromatization proceeding (one would expect) by further dehydrogenation of the initially formed C6 ring-closure species. There is another pathway for the production of aromatics based upon cyclization of a linear triene (133), but this is of relatively small importance, and is only significant at all at quite high temperatures and low hydrogen partial pressures.
