โฆ Synopsis
The classical theory of shear melting induced instability can be evaluated by a combination of variational principles and numerical minimization techniques. The method can be generalized to any system induced towards instability by an outside agency.

A continuum-based variational principle is presented for the formulation of the discrete governing equations of partitioned structural systems. This application includes coupled substructures as well as subdomains obtained by mesh decomposition. The present variational principle is derived by a seri
A single variational principle can be used to determine the matimal entropy distribution, as well as to provide a bound on the uncertainty of the Lagrange multipliers due to scatter in the data. Both the distribution and the Lagrange multipliers are considered as variational parameters.
We present calculations of the rate constants for the title reactions on a new accurate potential energy surface with a 9.65 kcal mol-barrier and a carefully fitted long-range attraction. The low-temperature thermal rate constant decreases from the previously calculated value, corresponding to a sur
