Modeling and synthesis of bifunctional dual activation thiourea organocatalysts for Michael addition of pyrazole by Savita Sharma, Vandana Sharma, Sanjay Mandal, Raj K. Bansal

“…Guided by the theoretical results, four new N-bis(3,5-trifluoromethyl)phenyl-N′-2-pyridylthiourea catalysts were synthesized and well characterized on the basis of IR, 1H and 13C NMR and HRMS studies. X-ray crystal structure of one catalyst could also be done. On determining comparative catalytic efficacies of these catalysts experimentally for the model reaction of pyrazole with cinnamaldehyde, the catalyst N-bis(3,5-trifluoromethyl)phenyl-N′-2-(5-chloropyridyl)thiourea was found to be most effective, which is in accordance with the theoretical modeling results.…”

Resolution of the Generalized Eigenvalue Problem in the Neutron Diffusion Equation Discretized by the Finite Volume Method by Álvaro Bernal, Rafael Miró, Damián Ginestar, Gumersindo Verdú

“…The most popular numerical techniques are the Finite Difference Method (FDM), the Coarse Mesh Finite Difference Method (CFMD), the Nodal Expansion Method (NEM), and the Nodal Collocation Method (NCM), used virtually in all neutronic diffusion codes, which give accurate results in structured meshes. However, the application of these methods in unstructured meshes to deal with complex geometries is not straightforward and it may cause problems of stability and convergence of the solution. …”
