A previous study of diatomic molecules revealed that variational second-order density matrix theory has serious problems in the dissociation limit when the N-representability is imposed at the level of the usual two-index (P,Q,G) or even three-index (T(1),T(2)) conditions [H. Van Aggelen et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 11, 5558 (2009)]. Heteronuclear molecules tend to dissociate into fractionally charged atoms. In this paper we introduce a general class of N-representability conditions, called subsystem constraints, and show that they cure the dissociation problem at little additional computational cost. As a numerical example the singlet potential energy surface of Be B(+) is studied. The extension to polyatomic molecules, where more subsystem choices can be identified, is also discussed.

Karst small towns globally face challenges due to limited disaster-resilient resources, making it difficult to handle increasingly severe disaster environments. Improving the efficiency of disaster-resilient resource utilization and maintaining a tight balance state of disaster-resilient resources (TBS) are crucial for enhancing disaster adaptability and resilience. This study used urban and disaster data from a representative karst region in China (2017-2021) to conduct a quantitative analysis of TBS in karst small towns, exploring the mechanisms and interactions within this state and identifying obstacle factors.

The integration between crop and livestock production systems (ICLS) at regional level is seen as a pathway for more sustainable food production. The objective was to assess the effects on farm structure, economic performance and environmental impact of an ICLS with varying constraints on agricultural emissions, changes in land use and a lower external input use as means to achieve environmental targets. A linear optimization model was used for economic optimization of ICLS under different scenarios for the case of crop and dairy production systems on sandy soils in the Netherlands.

To ensure the continuous high-efficiency operation of fuel cell systems, it is essential to perform real-time estimation of the maximum efficiency point and maximum power point for multi-stack fuel cell systems. The region between these two power points is commonly referred to as the "high-efficiency operating region." Initially, a transformation of the general expression for hydrogen consumption in multi-stack fuel cell systems is conducted to obtain an algebraic expression for the efficiency curve of multi-stack fuel cells.

In this paper, for addressing the safe control problem of modular robot manipulators (MRMs) system with uncertain disturbances, an approximate optimal control scheme of nonzero-sum (NZS) differential games is proposed based on the control barrier function (CBF). The dynamic model of the manipulator system integrates joint subsystems through the utilization of joint torque feedback (JTF) technique, incorporating interconnected dynamic coupling (IDC) effects. By integrating the cost functions relevant to each player with the CBF, the evolution of system states is ensured to remain within the safe region.
