Optimal Control of the Primary Drying Stage of Freeze Drying of Solutions in Vials Using Variational Calculus

The problem of operating freeze drying of pharmaceutical products in vials placed in trays of a freeze dryer to remove free water (in frozen state) at a minimum time was formulated as an optimal control problem. Two different types of freeze dryer designs were considered. In type I freeze dryer design, upper and lower plate temperatures were controlled together, while in type II freeze dryer design, upper and lower plate temperatures were controlled independently. The heat input to the material being dried and the drying chamber pressure were considered as control variables. Constraints were placed on the system state variables by the melting and scorch temperatures during primary drying stage. Necessary conditions of optimality for the primary drying stage of freeze drying process in vials are derived and presented. Furthermore, an approach for constructing the optimal control policies that would minimize the drying time for the primary drying stage was given. In order to analyze optimal control policy for the primary drying stage of the freeze-drying process in vials, a rigorous multi-dimensional unsteady state mathematical model was used. The theoretical approach presented in this work was applied in the freeze drying of skim milk. Significant reductions in the drying times of primary drying stage of freeze drying process in vials were obtained, as compared to the drying times obtained from conventional operational policies.

A Study on Turbo—rotor Multi—fault Diagnosis Based on a Neural Network

The multi-fault phenomena are common in the turbo-rotor system of a liquid rocket engine.As it has many excellent qualities,the neural network might be used to solve the problems of multi-fault diagnasis of a turbo-rotor system.First,the feature expression of a common turbo-rotor fault was studied in order to build up the standard fault pattern and satisfy the need of neural network studying and diagnosing.Then.the turbo-rotor fault identification and diagnosis problems were investigated by using a BP(back-propaga-tion)neural network.According to the BP neural network problems,the parallel BP neural network method of multi-fault diagnosis and classification was presented and investigated.The results indicated that the parallel Bp neural network method could solve the turbo-rotor multi-fault diagnosis problems.     

Integrated Survivability Strategies of IP／GMPLS／Opticai Multi——layer Network

In last decade,due to that the popularity of the internet, data--central traffic kept growing, some emerging networking requirements have been posed on the today‘s telecommunication networks,especially in the area of network survivability. Obviously, as a key networking problem, network reliability will be more and more important. The integration of different technologies such as ATM, SDH, and WDM in multilayer transport networks raises many questions regarding the coordination of the individual network layers.This problem is referred as multilayer network survivability. The integrated multilayer network survivability is investingated as well as the representation of an interworking strategy between different single layer survivability schemes in IP via generalized multiprotocol label switching over ootical netwnrk

Evaluation of performance enhancing proxies in internet over satellite

Performance enhancing proxies (PEPs) are widely used to improve the performance of TCP over high delay‐bandwidth product links and links with high error probability. In this paper we analyse the performance of using TCP connection splitting in combination with web caching via traces obtained from a commercial satellite system. We examine the resulting performance gain under different scenarios, including the effect of caching, congestion, random loss and file sizes. We show, via analysing our measurements, that the performance gain from using splitting is highly sensitive to random losses and the number of simultaneous connections, and that such sensitivity is alleviated by caching. On the other hand, the use of a splitting proxy enhances the value of web caching in that cache hits result in much more significant performance improvement over cache misses when TCP splitting is used. We also compare the performance of using different versions of HTTP in such a system. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
