Second Normal Form

In third normal form, data values in a column are not intentionally repeated. For example, the separate logP table was created to satisfy first and second normal form. But it violates third normal form because the method values "exp" and "theory" are used repeatedly throughout the table. 

Some authors advocate analyzing schemas of tables up to normal form 3 and then backing off to second normal form in order to increase efficiency. With increasing capabilities of computers and RDBMS, this... 

Second normal form Each row should contain only one value for each column. If multiple values of a data item are needed, a related table should be created for those values. Do not encode data "fields" into a data column. Create separate columns for each "field" and in a separate table, if necessary. 

The dotted line shows the second bond formed by hydrogen, the bond called the hydrogen bond. It is usually dotted to indicate that it is much weaker than a normal covalent bond. Consideration of the boiling points in Figure 17-14, on the other hand, shows that the interaction must be much stronger than van der Waals forces. Experiments show that most hydrogen bonds release between 3 kcal/mole and 10 kcal/mole upon formation ... 

Note here that at high pressures of M, fe[M]kj. and Eq. (9.3) reduces to the first-order rate expression v (A i 3/ 2)[A] = A [A], whereas at low pressures 2[1V[] -C kj. and the expression becomes v A i[A][M], the normal second-order form. (Approximations such as these are commonly used in many areas of science and mathematics.)... 

This representation is also called normal form and it is graphically depicted in Figure 3. It can be seen that the normal form is composed of three parts respectively given by the subsystems (4a), (4b) and (4c). The first part presents a linear structure and it is given by a chain of r — 1 integrators, whereas the second part has a nonlinear structure, where the input-output relationship explicitly appears. Finally, the last part is conformed by the dynamics of the n — r complementary functions. This part is called internal dynamics because it cannot be seen from the input-output relationship (see Figure 3) and whose structure can be linear or nonlinear. 

The Dirac-Coulomb-Breit Hamiltonian H qb 1 rewritten in second-quantized form [6, 16] in terms of normal-ordered products of spinor creation and annihilation operators r+s and r+s+ut, ... 

A second procedure makes use of heats of atomization. The heat of atomization of carbon is the energy of converting graphite to carbon atoms. With diatomic molecules such as hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and fluorine, it is the energy required to convert them into atoms. The heats of atomization for most elements in their normal form are known from experimental data. ... 

After completing the first phase we have a feasible basic solution. The second phase is nothing else but the simplex method applied to the normal form. The following module strictly follows the algorithmic steps described. 

In 77) the authors give dependencies of the maximum Newtonian viscosity upon amplitude of periodic strain velocity q0 = f(e) for polyethylene and polystyrene. It has been also revealed that the dependency of normalized viscosity upon the velocity of stationary shear T /r 0 = f(y q0) obtained at r. = 0 coincides with a similar dependency when acoustic treatment is employed, i.e., at e 0. In other words, the effect of shear vibrations and velocity of stationary shear upon valuer] can be divided, representing the role of the first factor in form of dependency q0(s0) and that of the second in form of dependency (n/q0) upon (y r 0) invariant in relation to e. 

A second-order differential equation may be changed to normal form by the substitution y = qw, selecting q(x) so that the y term disappears. Starting from... 

The oxidation of phosphites by iodine was found to proceed to completion in neutral solution 2 (see Estimation, p. 149). Over a narrow range of concentrations the reaction was found to be uni-molecular with respect to iodine and phosphorous acid.3 It is said to be catalysed by hydrogen ions which are formed as the reaction proceeds.4 A further study of the velocity constants showed that the mechanism was more complicated than had previously been supposed, and that the two tautomeric forms participated in different ways.5 A solution of iodine in potassium iodide contains the ions I- and Iij", and also molecular iodine, I2. The latter reacts directly with the normal form of phosphorous acid and this reaction is repressed by hydrogen ions. Simultaneously, the phosphorous acid changes into another form with which the I8 ion reacts. This second reaction is accelerated by hydrogen ions either directly or, more probably, because they accelerate the tautomeric change. 

The mechanism has not been completely elucidated and may be very complex. The reaction has been classified as of the third order in dilute solution, and as of the first order with respect to HgCl2.3 But it has also been, stated that the reaction which is chiefly responsible for the observed velocity is the conversion of a first or normal form of H3PO3 into a second or active form, which then reacts according to equation (2) above. In the absence of extraneous chloride ions these are produced by another reaction, thus... 

It is evident that the second term on the right-hand side of this equation corresponds to the process of back injection to any point of the interval /, with equal probability. In fact, we see that this term affords a positive contribution to the time derivative on the left-hand side of Eq. (232), with the same rate of back injection, regardless the value of y. It is straightforward to show that if z < 2, and so p > 2, the equilibrium distributionpeq(y) exists and it is given by the properly normalized form... 

Since second normal stresses are generally difficult to obtain from the experimental point of view, it may seem attractive to cancel the Cauchy term of the K-BKZ equation setting h2di, I2) = 0 and to find a suitable material function hidi, I2). Wagner [26] wrote such an equation in the form ... 

Cancellation of the Cauchy term may bring some discrepancies, the more evident one being that, whatever h is, it leads to a zero second normal stress difference. A more subtle one concerns the loss of the thermodynamic consistency of the model. Indeed, it is not possible to find any potential function in the form Udi, I2) with h2di, I2) = 0 unless hi only depends on Ii. As mentioned by Larson [27, 28], this can induce violation of the second principle in complex flows such as those encoxmtered in processing conditions. 

Prediction of the second normal stress difference in shear and thermodynamic consistency obviously requires the use of a different strain measure including of the Cauchy strain tensor in the form of the K-BKZ model. With the ratio of second to first normal stress difference as a new parameter, Wagner and Demarmels [32] have shown that this is also necessary for accurate prediction of other flow situations such as equibiaxial extension, for example. 

In its general form, the Phan Thien Tanner equation includes two different contributions of strain to the loss of network junctions, through the use of a particular convected derivative which materializes some slip of the junctions and through the use of stress-dependent rates of creation and destruction of junctions. The use of the Gordon-Schowalter derivative brings some improvement in shear and a second normal stress is predicted, whereas the...
