Abstract:
A gas source declaration scheme based on a tetrahedral sensor structure in three-dimensional airflow environments is proposed. First, a tetrahedral sensor structure was established. Based on the tetrahedral structure, the gas source declaration problem was converted into a two-class classification issue. Then a classification algorithm combining an extreme learning machine (ELM, a fast neural network classifier) with a gas mass flux criterion is proposed. A novel calculation method for the mass flux through a closed tetrahedral surface is presented, and a mass flux criterion was developed which acts as a training sample filter for the ELM. The source declaration scheme was validated by using both regular and irregular tetrahedron experiments.

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...

Ionic Crystal Structures
Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...
