The effective diffusivities in porous media with and without nonlinear reactions

The question of whether effective diffusivities in porous materials under reactive and nonreactive conditions are equal is addressed. Previous studies had considered the problem with first-order reactions. We study the issue with two nonlinear reactions—a second-order reaction and one governed by the Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Pore network and continuum models of porous media are utilized to estimate the effective diffusivities under reactive and nonreactive conditions. We show that the two effective diffusivities are significantly different. The difference is due to the heterogeneities of the porous material, and the fluctuations that they cause in the spatially varying local concentrations and diffusivities, and can be as large as a few orders of magnitude. Theoretical analysis of diffusion and reactions in porous media is also presented that supports the results of the simulations. In particular, it is shown that the results of pore network simulations cannot be fitted to the classical continuum equation of diffusion and reaction, and that a more complex continuum equation should be used for this purpose.     

Modeling adsorption and order formation by colloidal particles on a solid surface: A Brownian dynamics study

A three-dimensional simulation model for colloidal dispersion system with an adsorptive surface under a specified bulk concentration was developed basing on the Brownian dynamics technique, and the adsorption process of electrostatically stabilized colloidal particles with radius of 50 nm onto a planar surface with counter charge was simulated. The particle-particle and particle-surface interactions were modeled on the DLVO theory. The adsorbed particles are found to form hexagonally ordered array, only if the surface coverage is above a certain threshold, which varies depending on the ionic strength or the interaction potentials. Through the analysis of the ordered structure, we found that the determinant factor for the order formation is “one-directional average force” acting between adsorbed particles, which exhibits a common value regardless of the ionic strength. Also, looking at the last process for establishing the order, we developed a model that can predict the potential barrier for the order formation. Further, the order formation was proven to be a stochastic phenomenon, and a model to describe the probability against time was developed and its quantitative validity was demonstrated.     

Performance of supply chain collaboration – A simulation study

In the past few decades several supply chain management initiatives such as Vendor Managed Inventory, Continuous Replenishment and Collaborative Planning Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR) have been proposed in literature to improve the performance of supply chains. But, identifying the benefits of collaboration is still a big challenge for many supply chains. Confusion around the optimum number of partners, investment in collaboration and duration of partnership are some of the barriers of healthy collaborative arrangements. To evolve competitive supply chain collaboration (SCC), all SC processes need to be assessed from time to time for evaluating the performance. In a growing field, performance measurement is highly indispensable in order to make continuous improvement; in a new field, it is equally important to check the performance to test conduciveness of SCC. In this research, collaborative performance measurement will act as a testing tool to identify conducive environment to collaborate, by the way of pinpointing areas requiring improvements before initializing collaboration. We use actual industrial data and simulation to help managerial decision-making on the number of collaborating partners, the level of investments and the involvement in supply chain processes. This approach will help the supply chains to obtain maximum benefit of collaborative relationships. The use of simulation for understanding the performance of SCC is relatively a new approach and this can be used by companies that are interested in collaboration without having to invest a huge sum of money in establishing the actual collaboration.

用于提高谷歌图像搜索结果的二分类器在线学习方法

对于基于关键词的图像检索,利用检索结果的视觉相似性学习二分类器有望成为改善检索结果的最有效途径之一. 为改善搜索引擎的搜索结果,本文提出一种算法框架并且基于此框架着重研究训练数据选择这一关键问题. 训练数据选择过程由两个阶段组成:1）训练数据初始化以开始分类器学习过程;2）分类器迭代学习过程中的动态数据选择. 对于初始训练数据的选择,我们探讨了基于聚类和基于排序两种方法,并且对比了自动训练数据选择与人工标注的结果. 对于动态数据选择,我们比较了支持向量机和基于最大最小后验伪概率的贝叶斯分类器的分类效果. 组合上述两个阶段的不同方法,我们得到了8种不同的算法,并将其用于谷歌搜索引擎进行基于关键词的图像检索. 实验结果证明,如何从含有噪声的搜索结果中选择训练数据是搜索结果改善的关键问题. 实验显示我们的方法能够有效的改善谷歌搜索的结果,尤其是排序在前的结果. 尽早为用户提供更相关的结果能够更大程度的减少用户逐个翻页查看结果的工作. 另外,如何使自动训练数据选择与人工标注媲美仍是需要继续研究的一个问题.     

Packed-microtubes model for flowthrough chromatography of protein

A mathematical model for flowthrough (perfusion) chromatography, namely packed-microtubes (PMT) model, has been proposed for a column packed with biporous (BiP) anion exchanger in which the mesopores and flowthrough pores are created with liquid and solid porogens, respectively. The model is established based on the assumption that the BiP particle is made up of packed microtubes. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) is used as a model protein and three kinds of anion exchangers (i.e., mesoporous, macroporous and BiP resins) are used as adsorbents to determine the model parameters and to evaluate the model. Adsorption equilibrium and finite bath experiments are performed to determine the adsorption isotherms and kinetics parameters. Both the bound amounts of the protein on the surface of the mesopores and macropores are experimentally determined and taken into account in the mathematical model. With all the model parameters determined by independent experiments or calculated from available correlations, model simulations are performed and compared with the experimentally determined breakthrough profiles of the BiP column. It is found that the model predictions agree reasonably well with the experimental data obtained under various conditions and the PMT model fit experimental data better than the modified double linear driving force (LLDF) model proposed by Leitão and Rodriogues (1999. Biochemical Engineering Journal 3, 131) in which the adsorbent particle is considered to be made up of packed microparticles. The results indicate that the PMT model is more reasonable for this kind of BiP adsorbent.
