The paper is focused on evaluation of significance of the additive-multiplicative model of extrathermodynamic relations (linear free energy relationships) as compared with the additive model. Application of the method of conjugated deviations to a data matrix describing manifestations of solvent effects in 367 processes in solutions (6 334 data) has shown that introduction of cross-terms into the additive model is statistically significant for a model with two and particularly three parameters. At the same time the calculation has provided a new set of statistical parameters for description of solvent effect with application of the additive-multiplicative model. Compared with an analogous set designated for the additive model, the new parameters show a lower mutual correlation, retaining the same nature of the properties described, i.e. polarity-acidity (PAC parameter), polarity-basicity (PBC), and polarity-polarizability (PPC).

ABSTRACTA simulation model for intrinsic diffusion of multicomponent multiphase systems is presented. The model is not restricted onto a certain number of components or phases. For simplicity, Manning's random alloy model with vanishing vacancy wind effect is used. Then the cross terms of the diffusion flux can be neglected. The simulation routine uses equations for the fluxes, the equation of continuity and an equation for the change of the thickness of volume elements due to the vacancy flux. With this model diffusions paths, concentration profiles, fluxes of the components as well as marker positions can be calculated. The shift of interfaces and the growth of new phases can also be determined. The simulation results were compared with experimental data of the Cu-Fe-Ni system. Diffusion was studied in single-phase areas and across interfaces.

A computer program for calculating dynamic coefficients of journal bearings is necessary in designing fluid film journal bearings and an accuracy of the program is sometimes checked by the relation that the cross terms of linear damping coefficients of journal bearings are equal to each other, namely “Cxy = Cyx”. However, the condition for this relation has not been clear. This paper shows that the relation “Cxy = Cyx” holds in any type of finite width journal bearing when these are calculated under the following condition: (I) The governing Reynolds equation is linear in pressure or regarded as linear in numerical calculations; (II) Film thickness is given by h = c (1 + κcosθ); and (III) Boundary condition is homogeneous such as p=0 or dp/dn=0, where n denotes a normal to the boundary.

The study presented in this paper is concerned with the analysis of the ultrasound Doppler signal of the carotid arteries in the time-frequency domain using the short time Fourier transform (STFT) and the Wigner–Ville distribution (WVD). This study is carried out in order to investigate the behavior of the spectral broadening index (SBI) derived from spectra obtained using these methods. The variations in the shape of the Doppler power spectra as a function of time are presented in the form of sonograms in order to determine the degree of primitive carotid artery stenosis. The obtained results show a qualitative improvement in the appearance of the sonograms generated using the WVD over the STFT. However, despite this qualitative improvement the WVD suffers from some drawbacks: the presence of the cross terms which are primarily due to its quadratic nature. The application of the Choi–Williams distribution (CWD) in this analysis shows a noticeable reduction of these cross terms, improving therefore the quality of the sonograms. From these generated sonograms, the ultrasound frequency envelopes are extracted. The maximum and the mean frequencies in these envelopes are used to determine the SBI. The magnitude of the CWD-SBI is significantly greater than that of the STFT-SBI. In addition, there is a correlation between the SBIs obtained using the STFT and the CWD and the degree of severity of stenosis measured by 2D Doppler imaging.
