Cover Story: The symmetry of molecular arrangement was used in recognition of supramolecular synthons, with topological similarities of crystal structures allowed to identify a supramolecular polymer with contacts above the semi-coordination distance limit. Stabilizing cooperation and destabilizing competition between coordination and hydrogen bonds were observed. View this paper.

  • Lavinia Codarcea-Munteanu

19 April 2019

In our study, we will extend the domain of influence in order to cover the thermoelasticity of initially stressed bodies with voids. In what follows, we prove that, for a finite time t > 0 , the displacement field u i , the dipolar d...
