Metabolic P (MP) grammars are a particular class of multiset rewriting grammars introduced in the MP theory for modelling metabolic processes. In this paper, a new algebraic formulation of inverse problems, based on MP grammars and Kronecker product, is given, for further motivating the correctness of the LGSS (Log-Gain Stoichiometric Stepwise) algorithm, introduced in 2010s for solving inverse problems in the MP framework. At the end of the paper, a section is included that introduces the problem of multicollinearity, which could arise during the execution of LGSS, and that defines an algorithm, based on a hierarchical clustering technique, that solves it in a suitable way. 相似文献
A micromachined chemoresistive gas sensor was studied from the point of view of heat distribution and thermal dissipation: this innovative device for environmental pollutant gas monitoring, is based on a sensitive film of semiconductor metal oxides, kept in temperature by a platinum resistor. In order to avoid electrical interactions between the film heater and the contacts for the film reading, the heater is driven by a square wave, and the film is read when no voltage is provided. Since the working temperature of the film is extremely important for its operation, it is crucial to maintain the temperature fluctuations within few degrees; to this end, in this work we study the heat distribution and dissipation of such a device, aiming to set a proper heating frequency, which will assure a right stability of the working temperature. 相似文献
A distillation process for the production of hyperazeotropic ethanol from a dilute wine obtained from the fermentation of biomass has been studied. This process utilizes the coupling of a soft preconcentration stage and of a dehydration stage based on the salting-out effect produced by calcium chloride on the ethanol in an aqueous solution, with the disappearance of the azeotrope. The salt is employed in a close cycle, due to the presence of a regeneration stage, therefore no consumption of calcium chloride is noticed.
The distillation process utilizes one column consisting of two sections operating at different pressures in order to reach an efficient heat recovery.
In this paper, a simplified flow-sheet of the process and the principal operating conditions of the distillation column are illustrated. When compared with other processes, conventional or under development, this one is characterized by the promising reduction of the specific energy requirement.
The operating conditions chosen for the distillation with salt have been experimentally checked using a laboratory column running continuously with calcium chloride as salting-out agent. Moreover, the experiments confirmed the reliability of the mathematical model of the process. Further experiments are in progress with the aim of utilizing a mixture of salts which can be fed from the bottom of the dehydration section back to the fermentor, so that the salt regeneration stage can be reduced. 相似文献
Particle tracking in turbulent flows in complex domains requires accurate interpolation of the fluid velocity field. If grids are non-orthogonal and curvilinear, the most accurate available interpolation methods fail. We propose an accurate interpolation scheme based on Taylor series expansion of the local fluid velocity about the grid point nearest to the desired location. The scheme is best suited for curvilinear grids with non-orthogonal computational cells. We present the scheme with second-order accuracy, yet the order of accuracy of the method can be adapted to that of the Navier-Stokes solver.An application to particle dispersion in a turbulent wavy channel is presented, for which the scheme is tested against standard linear interpolation. Results show that significant discrepancies can arise in the particle displacement produced by the two schemes, particularly in the near-wall region which is often discretized with highly-distorted computational cells. 相似文献
The oxidation by H2O2 of 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (3,4-DHB) in aqueous/goethite slurry at varying operating conditions (catalyst load, temperature, pH, substrate and hydrogen peroxide starting concentration) is investigated. At adopted catalyst loads the observed kinetic developments are consistent with a non-radicalic oxidation mechanism involving the interaction between hydrogen peroxide and 3,4-DHB acid both adsorbed on the active sites of the catalyst. The temperature dependence of rate parameters for the proposed model is also assessed. 相似文献
The physical gestures that operate music instruments are responsible for the qualities of the sound being produced in a performance.
Gestural information is thereby crucial for a model of music performance, paired with a model of sound synthesis where this
information is applied. The highly constrained nature of performers gestures makes this task suitable to be modeled via a
constraint-based approach, coupled with a strategy aimed at maximizing the gestural comfort of performers. We illustrate the
problem representation, the search strategy and a validation of the model against human performance. 相似文献
“场所精神”早在古罗马的传统信仰文化中就有所体现,古罗马人认为,每一种“独立的”本体(包括人和场所)都有自己的灵魂(genius)守护神灵,灵魂赋予本体以生命,如影随形,始终决定其外在的特征并反映其内在的本质。从“genius loci”这个词的组合上就可以看出,“genius”表示“What a thing is”,即“物之为何”,意味着理解力(intel igence)或精神技能的最高水平,而“loci”则为“地点”、“场所”之意,又“特定已知存在的地方”或“某事物的中心所在”,合起来就成为了一个标识场所本质的词条。而在某种意义上讲,场所也被认为是“一个人记忆的一种物体化和空间化”,或是“对一个地方的认同感和归属感”。著名的城市建筑学家诺贝格·舒尔茨(Christian Norberg-Schulz)在1979年明确提出“场所精神”的概念,认为场所是具有清晰特性的空间。如今,“场所精神”经常被用来指具有与众不同的氛围的场所或地点,或者是某种“精神性的场所(spirit of place)”,而不仅仅指某一位守护神。而在同种类型的建筑当中,其“场所精神”所表现出的气质往往是相同的,以至于每一类别的建筑都有其共通的“场所精神”,反映着相似的内在本质。这也在一定程度上诠释了为什么具备同种精神职能的建筑能够赋予人们同样的心灵体验。通常情况下,建筑艺术通过一些相类似的外在特征来表现这种近乎“同一”的内涵。例如,传统佛教建筑就常常通过“聚集”或“向心”的符号象征来重现佛陀讲经说法时的场景,并表达宇宙人生的真相。无论何时何地,只要不偏离符号象征的原型(prototype),这种“场所精神”就能够得到有效的延续。 相似文献
