Item 1-[3-({[bis(2-methylpropyl)carbamothioyl]amino}carbonyl)benzoyl]-3, 3-bis(2-methylpropyl)thiourea(International Union of Crystallography, 2013-08-03) Selvakumaran, N; Karvembu, R; Ng, Seik Weng; Tiekink, Edward R. T.The title compound, C26H42N4O 2S2, adopts a shallow U-shape as both pendant arms of the 1,3-substituted benzene ring are orientated in the same direction. The thione S atoms lie to the same side of the benzene ring and the carbonyl O atoms to the other. The most prominent feature of the crystal packing is the formation of inversion dimers mediated by N - H⋯S hydrogen bonds. One of the 2-methylpropyl groups is statistically disordered over two positions. © 2013 Selvakumaran et al.Item 1-Benzoyl-3,3-bis(propan-2-yl)thiourea(International Union of Crystallography, 2010-07-24) Gunasekaran, N; Karvembu, R; Ng, Seik Weng; Tiekink, Edward R. T.Two independent thiourea derivatives comprise the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C14H20N2OS. The major difference between the mol-ecules relates to a twist in the relative orientation of the benzene rings [torsion angles = 4.5 (2) and -19.9 (2)° for the two independent mol-ecules]. The thio-carbonyl and carbonyl groups lie to opposite sides of the mol-ecule as there are twists about the central N - S bond [torsion angles = 83.90 (15) and 81.77 (15)°]. Supra-molecular chains extending parallel to [101] with a stepped topology and mediated by N - H⋯O hydrogen bonding feature in the crystal structure. C - H⋯O and C - H⋯π inter-actions are also present.Item 1-Benzoyl-3,3-bis-(2-methylpropyl)thiourea(International Union of Crystallography, 2011-02-12) Selvakumaran, N; Karvembu, R; Ng, Seik Weng; Tiekink, Edward R.T.The title compound, C16H24N2OS, is twisted about the central N(H) - C bond with the C - N - C - S torsion angle being 119.6 (3)°.

T.In the title hemisolvate, C14H11ClN2OS·0.5CH2Cl2, an anti disposition is found for the thione and ketone atoms, as well as the N-H H atoms; the dichloromethane C atom lies on a twofold axis. The central chromophore (including the two adjacent ipso C atoms) is planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.021 Å) owing to the presence of an intramolecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond, which closes an S(6) loop. Significant twists are evident in the molecule, the dihedral angles between the central moiety and the phenyl and benzene rings being 29.52 (7) and 40.02 (7)°, respectively. In the crystal, eight-membered {⋯HNC= S}2 synthons with twofold symmetry form via N-H⋯S hydrogen bonds. The dimers are connected into a supramolecular chain along [111] by C-H⋯O interactions. The chains stack along the c axis, forming columns which define channels in which the occluded dichloromethane molecules reside.Item 1-Benzoyl-3-methyl-3-pentylthiourea(International Union of Crystallography, 2011-04-16) Gunasekaran, N; Jerome, P; Karvembu, R; Ng, Seik Weng; Tiekink, Edward R. T.Two independent molecules comprise the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C14H20N2OS. These differ in the relative orientations of the pentyl chains [C-C-C-C torsion angles = 176.7 (3) and 176.4 (3)°]. Significant twists are evident in each molecule, the dihedral angles formed between the thiourea and amide residues being 53.47 (17) and 55.81 (17)°. In the crystal, each molecule self-associates via a centrosymmetric eight-membered {⋯HNC S}2 synthon, and these are connected into a supramolecular chain along [110] via C-H⋯O contacts.

T.Two independent thio-urea molecules comprise the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C22H20N2OS. The central N-C(=S)N(H)C(=O) atoms in each molecule are virtually superimposable and each is twisted [C - N - C - S torsion angles = 121.3 (3) and -62.3 (4)°]. The molecules differ only in terms of the relative orientations of the benzyl benzene rings [major difference between the C - N - C - C torsion angles of -146.6 (3) and -132.9 (3)°]. The presence of N - H⋯S hydrogen bonding leads to the formation of supra-molecular chains along the a axis. These are consolidated in the crystal packing by C - H⋯O interactions. The crystal was found to be a combined non-merohedral and racemic twin (twin law 1̄00/01̄0/001), with the fractional contribution of the minor components being approximately 9 and 28%.Item 3-Benzoyl-1-(2-methoxyphenyl)thiourea(International Union of Crystallography, 2012-11-03) Selvakumaran, N; Sheeba, M.

Ltd., 2024-02-11) Shekar, Padala Raja; Mathew, Aneesh; Yeswanth, P.V.; Deivalakshmi, SIn recent years, there has been a growing interest in using artificial intelligence (AI) for rainfall-runoff modelling, as it has shown promising adaptability in this context. The current study involved the use of six distinct AI models to simulate monthly rainfall-runoff modelling in the Bardha watershed, India. These models included the artificial neural network (ANN), k-nearest neighbour regression model (KNN), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) regression model, random forest regression model (RF), convolutional neural network (CNN), and CNN-RNN (convolutional recurrent neural network). The years 2003–2007 are classified as the calibration or training period, while the years 2008–2009 are classified as the validation or testing period for the span of time 2003 to 2009. The available rainfall, maximum and minimum temperatures, and discharge data were collected and utilized in the models. To compare the performance of the models, five criteria were employed: R2, NSE, MAE, RMSE, and PBIAS. The CNN-RNN model simulates the rainfall-runoff model in the Bardha watershed best in both the training and testing periods (training: R2 is 0.99, NSE is 0.99, MAE is 1.76, RMSE is 3.11, and PBIAS is −1.45; testing: R2 is 0.97, NSE is 0.97, MAE is 2.05, RMSE is 3.60, and PBIAS is −3.94). These results demonstrate the superior performance of the CNN-RNN model in simulating monthly rainfall-runoff modelling when compared to the other models used in the study. The findings suggest that the CNN-RNN model could be a valuable tool for various applications related to sustainable water resource management, flood control, and environmental planning.Item A compact non-bianisotropic complementary split ring resonator inspired microstrip triple band antenna(Electromagnetics Academy, 2018-02-13) Pandeeswari, RamasamyA Compact Non-Bianisotropic Complementary Split Ring Resonator (NB-CSRR) based microstrip triple band antenna is presented in this paper.

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) being the frontier multiple access scheme for 5G, there exists numerous research attempts on enhancing the energy efficiency of NOMA enabled wireless networks while maintaining its outstanding performance metrics such as high throughput, data rates and capacity maximized optimally. The concept of green NOMA is introduced in a generalized manner to identify the energy efficient NOMA schemes. These schemes will result in an optimal scenario in which the energy generated for communication is managed sustainably. Hence, the effect on the environment, economy, living beings, etc is minimized. The recent research developments are classified for a better understanding of areas which are lacking attention and needs further improvement. Also, the performance comparison of energy efficient, NOMA schemes against conventional NOMA is presented. Finally, challenges and emerging research trends, for energy efficient NOMA are discussed.Item A Note on the Volume Conserving Solution to Simultaneous Aggregation and Collisional Breakage Equation(MDPI, 2023-02-09) Kharchandy, Farel William Viret; Das, Arijit; Thota, Vamsinadh; Saha, Jitraj; Singh, MehakpreetAbstract A new population balance model is introduced, in which a pair of particles can coagulate into a larger one if their encounter is a completely inelastic collision; otherwise, one of them breaks into multiple fragments (two or more) due to the elastic collision. Mathematically, coagulation and breakage models both manifest nonlinearity behavior. We prove the global existence and uniqueness of the solution to this model for the compactly supported kinetic kernels and an unbounded breakage distribution function. A further investigation dealt with the volume conservation property (necessary condition) of the solution.
