Chirality plays a crucial role in drug discovery and development. As a result, a significant number of commercially available drugs are structurally dissymmetric and enantiomerically pure. The determination of the exact ...

Vibration analysis is one of the main techniques used to identify the behavior of structures and electrical machines. In both areas, there is a need to monitor and identify the components in frequency. In structure monitoring, ...

The determination of the absolute configuration of chiral bioactive natural products is a crucial step in their structural characterization. Several well-established techniques, such as X-ray crystallography, stereo-controlled ...

An active vibration isolation system is retrofitted to a diesel generator set in a tugboat to determine the effectiveness of such a system in a realistic practical environment. The system consists of six bespoke inertial ...

Relative vibration between two flexible subsystems can be detrimental to the performance of many engineering applications, such as optics-based instruments, machine tools, or adjacent industrial structures sharing piping. ...

Transparent glass ceramics containing β-PbF2:Er 3+ nanocrystals were obtained through appropriate thermal treatments of a glass of molar composition 60PbGeO3-10PbF2-30CdF 2 doped with 0.5 mol% Er3+. Their optical properties, ...
