TL;DR: In this article, a kinetic study on one of the key steps in the conversion of biomass to levulinic acid, i.e., the reaction of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to Levulinic Acid (LA), was performed in a temperature window of 98-181 °C, acid concentrations between 0.05-1 M and initial HMF concentrations between 1 and 1 M.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of adding a point polarizability to a SPC like rigid water model in molecular dynamics simulations and proposed a new algorithm for calculating the induced dipole moments based on a predictive, instead of an iterative, scheme.
Abstract: We have investigated the effect of adding a point polarizability to a SPC like rigid water model in molecular dynamics simulations A new algorithm for calculating the induced dipole moments based on a predictive, instead of an iterative scheme, is presented The predictive scheme considerably reduces the demand on computer time Both schemes gives identical results for energy, structure and dynamics In the liquid phase simulations of the polarizable water model the total dipole moment is enhanced from its static gas phase value of 1·85 D to 3·2 D The radial distribution functions indicate an increased structure as compared to SPC water Dynamic properties are slower than for the original SPC model Further adjustments of the hard core of the polarizable SPC model to yield a better energy estimate reduces the total dipole moment to 2·9 D This model, the polarizable SPC (PSPC) water, enhances the agreement with the original SPC structure and improves the dynamical properties of the model In order to si

TL;DR: It is suggested that the good corrosion properties of the NiTi alloy and the related promising biological response, as reported in literature, may be ascribed to the presence of mainly a TiO2-based surface layer and its specific properties, including the formation of a calcium-phosphate layer after exposure to a bioenvironment.

TL;DR: This work examined the relation between severity of white matter lesions and cognitive decline over a nearly 10‐year period in 563 elderly subjects sampled from the general nondemented Dutch population.
Abstract: The prospect of declining cognitive functions is a major fear for many elderly persons. Cerebral white matter lesions, as commonly found with magnetic resonance imaging, have been associated with cognitive dysfunction in cross-sectional studies. Only a few longitudinal studies using small cohorts confirmed these findings. We examined the relation between severity of white matter lesions and cognitive decline over a nearly 10-year period in 563 elderly subjects sampled from the general nondemented Dutch population. Severity of white matter lesions was scored for periventricular and subcortical regions separately using an extensive semiquantitative scale. Cognitive function was measured by the Mini-Mental State Examination at regular time intervals during 1990 to 2000, and magnetic resonance imaging scans were made in 1995 to 1996. More severe white matter lesions were associated with more rapid cognitive decline over a mean follow-up period of 7.3 years (standard deviation, 1.5). After adjusting for age, gender, educational level, measures of depression, and brain atrophy and infarcts, subjects with severe periventricular white matter lesions experienced cognitive decline nearly three times as fast (0.28 Mini-Mental State Examination points/year [95% confidence interval, 0.20-0.36]) as the average (0.10 points/year [95% confidence interval, 0.09-0.11]). There was no independent relationship between severity of subcortical white matter lesions and rate of cognitive decline.

TL;DR: In this paper, a more detailed model involving proton and neutron sand d-bosons was introduced and the interacting bosons were considered in the framework of the shell model and the relationship between these models given in ref. 3 was discussed.
