Satu biosensor glukosa separa telah dibina menggunakan satu lapisan dalaman yang selektif, satu lapisan enzim dan satu elektrod emas. Kedua–dua lapisan membran tersebut adalah berasaskan polivinil alcohol (PVA) tersambung silang. Prestasi biosensor glukosa tersebut telah dinilai terutamanya prestasi terhadap gangguan asetaminofen, yang merupakan molekul tak ionik. Sensitiviti enzim tersekat gerak tersebut terhadap glukosa adalah tinggi tetapi ianya tidak mencukupi untuk melawan gangguan asetaminofen. Kehadiran lapisan dalaman PVA yang hanya sederhana selektif tidak menyebabkan kesan yang ketara pada gangguan. Satu model matematik kemudiannya digunakan untuk menganalisis prestasi biosensor yang lengkap. Satu lapisan luar ditambah secara simulasi kepada dua lapisan terdahulu. Model matematik tersebut meramalkan bahawa penambahan satu lapisan luar yang mempunyai kebolehtelapan yang rendah terhadap bahan larut mampu memperbaiki prestasi sensor. Kata kunci: Biosensor glukosa; model matematik; asetaminofen; gangguan elektrokimia; polivinil alkohol tersambung silang A partial glucose biosensor was constructed using a selective internal layer, an enzyme layer and a gold electrode. Both membrane layers are based on cross–linked polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The performance of the partial glucose biosensor was analyzed particularly with respect to the interfering effects of acetaminophen, a non–ionic molecule. The sensitivity of the immobilized enzyme to glucose was high but it was not high enough to counter acetaminophen interference. The addition of the moderately selective PVA internal layer did not seem to have a significant effect on interference. A mathematical model was then used to analyze the performance of a completed biosensor. A simulated external layer was added to the two layers. The mathematical model predicted that the addition of an external layer with lowered permeability to solutes could improve the performance of the sensor. Key words: Glucose biosensor; mathematical modeling; acetaminophen; electrochemical interference; cross-linked polyvinyl alcohol

ABSTRACT In the present article, a mathematical model for the b- immobilized fructofuranosidase was constructed considering the partition equilibrium between the liquid phase and the particle, diffusion and reaction within the particle. The kinetic constants were estimated by fitting the kinetic equations with the experimental data of the fructosyl-stevioside experiments using suspended enzyme. The other constants were estimated by fitting the mathematical model with experimental data of partition equilibrium coefficient, and fructosyl-stevioside synthesis using immobilized enzyme. The model could describe the fructosyl-stevioside formation under several conditions of initial concentration of substrate and total enzyme in the system. Keywords: Transfructosilation, fructosyl – stevioside, kinetic analysis, mathematical model.

In any economy there is a need for the bulky goods transportation which cannot be divided into smaller parts. Such cargoes include building structures, elements of industrial equipment, tracked or wheeled construction and agricultural machinery, heavy armored military vehicles. In any case, tractor-semitrailer should provide fast delivery of goods with minimal fuel consumption. In order to guarantee the goods delivery, tractor-semitrailers must be able to overcome the existing roads broken grade and be capable to tow a semi-trailer in off-road conditions. These properties are especially important for military equipment transportation. The important factor that determines a tractor-semitrailer mobility is its gradeability. The purpose of this work is to improve a tractor-semitrailer mobility with tractor units manufactured at PJSC “AutoKrAZ” by increasing the tractor-semitrailer gradeability. The customer requirements for a new tractor are determined by the maximizing the grade to 18°. The analysis of the characteristics of modern tractor-semitrailers for heavy haulage has shown that the highest rate of this grade is 16.7°. The factors determining the limiting gradeability value were analyzed, based on the tractor-semitrailer with a KrAZ-6510TE tractor and a semi-trailer with a full weight of 80 t. It has been developed a mathematical model to investigate the tractor and semi-trailer axles vertical reactions distribution on the tractor-semitrailer friction performances. The mathematical model has allowed to calculate the gradeability value that the tractor-semitrailer can overcome in case of wheels and road surface friction value and the tractive force magnitude from the engine. The mathematical model adequacy was confirmed by comparing the calculations results with the data of factory tests. The analysis showed that on a dry road the KrAZ-6510TE tractor with a 80 t gross weight semitrailer is capable to climb a gradient of 14,35 ° with its coupling mass full use condition. The engine's maximum torque allows the tractor-semitrailer to overcome a gradient of 10.45° It has been determined the ways to improve the design of the KrAZ-6510TE tractor to increase its gradeability. Keywords: tractor, tractor-semitrailer vehicle mobility, tractor-semitrailer vehicle gradeability.

In addition, it is possible to conduct studies of stability and consumption of electrical energy. The physical model allows to quickly change geometric dimensions and mass parameters. In the study of highway trains, this approach will allow to investigate the various layout schemes of highway trains in the short term. It is possible to make two-axle road trains and saddle towed trains, three-way hitched trains of different layout. The results obtained will allow us to improve not only the mathematical model, but also the experimental physical model, and move on to further study the properties of hybrid road trains with an active trailer link. This approach allows to reduce material and time costs when researching the properties of cars and road trains. Keywords: car, physical model, experiment, road trains, sensor, remote control, maneuverability, stability.

A mathematical model of amperometric biosensors has been developed to simulate the biosensor response in stirred as well as non stirred solution. The model involves three regions: the enzyme layer where enzyme reaction as well as mass transport by diffusion takes place, a diffusion limiting region where only the diffusion takes place, and a convective region, where the analyte concentration is maintained constant. Using computer simulation the influence of the thickness of the enzyme layer as well the diffusion one on the biosensor response was investigated. The computer simulation was carried out using the finite difference technique.
