We propose a direct method for solving the general Riccati equationy′=f(x)+g(x)y+h(x)y2. We first reduce it into an equivalent equation, and then we formulate the relations between the coefficients functionsf(x),g(x), andh(x)of the equation to obtain an equivalent separable equation from which the previous equation can be solved in closed form. Several examples are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of this method.

The main goal of this note is to discuss the applicability of approximate closed-form solutions to evaluate the natural frequencies for bending vibrations of simply supported Euler–Bernoulli cracked beams. From the well-known model, which considers the cracked beam as two beams connected by a rotational spring, different approximate solutions are revisited and compared with those found by a direct method, which has been chosen as reference.

Single-use plastics impose an enormous environmental threat, but their recycling, especially of polyolefins, has been proven challenging. We report a direct method to selectively convert polyolefins to branched, liquid fuels including diesel, jet, and gasoline-range hydrocarbons, with high yield up to 85% over Pt/WO3/ZrO2 and HY zeolite in hydrogen at temperatures as low as 225°C. The process proceeds via tandem catalysis with initial activation of the polymer primarily over Pt, with subsequent cracking over the acid sites of WO3/ZrO2 and HY zeolite, isomerization over WO3/ZrO2 sites, and hydrogenation of olefin intermediates over Pt. The process can be tuned to convert different common plastic wastes, including low- and high-density polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, everyday polyethylene bottles and bags, and composite plastics to desirable fuels and light lubricants.
