TL;DR: An alternative to the Gaussian-n (G1, G2, and G3) composite methods of computing molecular energies is proposed and is named the "correlation consistent composite approach" (ccCA,ccCA-CBS-1, ccCA- CBS-2), which uses the correlation consistent polarized valence (cc-pVXZ) basis sets.
Abstract: Article discussing research on the correlation consistent composite approach (ccCA) and an alternative to the Gaussian-n methods.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate the technical feasibility of a vegetative plant oil production platform and provide for a step change in the bioenergy landscape, opening new prospects for sustainable food, high energy forage, biofuel and biomaterial applications.
Abstract: High biomass crops have recently attracted significant attention as an alternative platform for the renewable production of high energy storage lipids such as triacylglycerol (TAG). While TAG typically accumulates in seeds as storage compounds fuelling subsequent germination, levels in vegetative tissues are generally low. Here, we report the accumulation of more than 15% TAG (17.7% total lipids) by dry weight in Nicotiana tabacum (tobacco) leaves by the co-expression of three genes involved in different aspects of TAG production without severely impacting plant development. These yields far exceed the levels found in wild-type leaf tissue as well as previously reported engineered TAG yields in vegetative tissues of Arabidopsis thaliana and N. tabacum. When translated to a high biomass crop, the current levels would translate to an oil yield per hectare that exceeds those of most cultivated oilseed crops. Confocal fluorescence microscopy and mass spectrometry imaging confirmed the accumulation of TAG within leaf mesophyll cells. In addition, we explored the applicability of several existing oil-processing methods using fresh leaf tissue. Our results demonstrate the technical feasibility of a vegetative plant oil production platform and provide for a step change in the bioenergy landscape, opening new prospects for sustainable food, high energy forage, biofuel and biomaterial applications.

TL;DR: An integrated model by examining how utilitarian factors, the hedonic factor, and social/psychological factors directly or indirectly influenced consumers' continuance intention in the context of online shopping provides statistically significant explanations of the variation in consumers' online repurchase intention.
Abstract: The explosion of e-commerce activities required industry and academia to understand the key determinants of consumers' online repurchase intention. We developed an integrated model by examining how...

TL;DR: In this article, the contingent rewards of the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) were examined in an attempt to theoretically explain recent empirical results linking contingent rewards to transformational rather than transactional leadership.
Abstract: The contingent rewards subscale of the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) was examined in an attempt to theoretically explain recent empirical results linking contingent rewards to transformational rather than transactional leadership. In Study 1, we supported the proposal that the items in the contingent rewards subscale represented two separate factors, an explicit and an implicit psychological contract. In addition, the implicit factor loaded with other transformational subscales and the explicit factor loaded with other transactional subscales. We confirmed these results in Study 2, and supported other hypotheses from transformational leadership theory using the contingent rewards revision. Implications for the transformational leadership construct are discussed. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

TL;DR: The recent advances in the design and synthesis of COF-based catalysts for clean energy conversion and storage are presented and future research directions and perspectives are also discussed for the development of efficient COf-based electrocatalysts.
Abstract: Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are promising for catalysis, sensing, gas storage, adsorption, optoelectricity, etc. owning to the unprecedented combination of large surface area, high crystallinity, tunable pore size, and unique molecular architecture. Although COFs are in their initial research stage, progress has been made in the design and synthesis of COF-based electrocatalysis for the oxygen reduction reaction, oxygen evolution reaction, hydrogen evolution reaction, and CO2 reduction in energy conversion and fuel generation. Design principles are also established for some of the COF materials toward rational design and rapid screening of the best electrocatalysts for a specific application. Herein, the recent advances in the design and synthesis of COF-based catalysts for clean energy conversion and storage are presented. Future research directions and perspectives are also being discussed for the development of efficient COF-based electrocatalysts.
