Propagation factor complex

Using Equations 2.48, 2.55, and 2.59, changes in the complex propagation factor y are related to this complex power transfer [4],... 

The amplitude of the SAW is dependent upon time t and propagation path x. The dependency is assumed as exp (i(o)t - /3x)). A complex propagating factor 3 is defined by the wave number k and attenuation a as...

For a sound wave propagating in porous textiles, the porous gas-filled medium is often treated as an equivalent uniform medium for analysis purposes, so a propagation factor can be used to describe the dependence of the propagating wave on time t and the propagation coordinate x (Bies and Hansen, 2009). Here, m=Inf is. the angular frequency and /is the wave frequency. The propagation constant y is also called the propagation coefficient, which is a complex number and can be expressed as ... 

To separate the non-bonded forces into near, medium, and far zones, pair distance separations are used for the van der Waals forces, and box separations are used for the electrostatic forces in the Fast Multipole Method,[24] since the box separation is a more convenient breakup in the Fast Multipole Method (FMM). Using these subdivisions of the force, the propagator can be factorized according to the different intrinsic time scales of the various components of the force. This approach can be used for other complex systems involving long range forces. 

The absolute value of the propagation constant was determined89). The detailed mechanism of this complex reaction and the factors determining the isotacticity were discussed in a following paper90). 

This assumption is implicitly present not only in the traditional theory of the free-radical copolymerization [41,43,44], but in its subsequent extensions based on more complicated models than the ideal one. The best known are two types of such models. To the first of them the models belong wherein the reactivity of the active center of a macroradical is controlled not only by the type of its ultimate unit but also by the types of penultimate [45] and even penpenultimate [46] monomeric units. The kinetic models of the second type describe systems in which the formation of complexes occurs between the components of a reaction system that results in the alteration of their reactivity [47-50]. Essentially, all the refinements of the theory of radical copolymerization connected with the models mentioned above are used to reduce exclusively to a more sophisticated account of the kinetics and mechanism of a macroradical propagation, leaving out of consideration accompanying physical factors. The most important among them is the phenomenon of preferential sorption of monomers to the active center of a growing polymer chain. A quantitative theory taking into consideration this physical factor was advanced in paper [51]. 

The relative magnitude of the two concentrations evidently depends on the magnitude of the equilibrium constants and of the concentrations of M and X. Two further points need to be made, (i) It is likely that the formation of 3 from 2 will be favoured, i.e., the equilibrium constant will be enhanced, by a statistical factor akin to an entropy of mixing, (ii) For the species 2 there is no front and back , the MP+BM is symmetrical, and therefore the probability of the propagation, i.e., the, is twice as great as it would be for XP+BM, even if the free energy of complexing is the same for X and M.
