Mutually polarizable QM/MM model with in situ optimized localized basis functions
PublikacjaWe extend our recently developed quantum-mechanical/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) approach [Dziedzic et al., J. Chem. Phys. 145, 124106 (2016)] to enable in situ optimization of the localized orbitals. The quantum subsystem is described with ONETEP linear-scaling density functional theory and the classical subsystem – with the AMOEBA polarizable force field. The two subsystems interact via multipolar electrostatics and are fully...

Wysokoczęstotliwościowy falownik napięcia - badania symulacyjne
PublikacjaWiększość ruchomych odbiorników energii elektrycznej jest połączona ze źródłem energii poprzez: giętkie przewody, komutatory, pierścienie ślizgowe lub pantografy. Taki sposób zasilania w energię elektryczną jest powszech-nie akceptowalny w łagodnym środowisku pracy, ale może być ograniczony w środowisku zagrożonym pod względem wybuchu lub wilgotnym. W wielu przypadkach zastosowań trakcyjnych warunki środowiskowe nie pozwalają na...
