A procedure is suggested for studying the kinetics of photochemical reactions using excitation with polychromatic radiation, where the wavenumber dependence of the intensity of the polychromatic radiation entering the reaction compartment must be known. The observed relative intensities of the polychromatic source are calibrated by ferrioxalate actinometry, selected parts of the emission spectrum being eliminated by insertion of filters. The relative intensities of an HBO 200 high-pressure mercury lamp were measured. For the sake of brevity, the experimental data were fitted by a mathematical model (a polynominal), and only the parameters of the polynomial are presented in a tabular form.

For quantitative studies of photochemical reactions with low quantum yields the paper suggests application of polychromatic radiation sources whose overall intensity is by orders higher than that of currently available monochromatic sources. The more complicated and laborious calculation methods suggested for treatment of the experimental data can be solved by usual numerical procedures.

Abstract In this study, reduction of in-flight fine particles of magnetite ore concentrate by methane at a constant heat flux has been investigated both experimentally and numerically. A 3D turbulent mathematical model was developed to simulate the dynamic motion of these particles in a methane content reactor and experiments were conducted to evaluate the model. The kinetics of the reaction were obtained using an optimizing method as: [-Ln(1-X)]1/2.91 = 1.02 × 10−2dP−2.07CCH40.16exp(−1.78 × 105/RT)t. The model predictions were compared with the experimental data and the data had an excellent agreement.

ABSTRACT A theoretical description has been developed of the kinetics of isobutylene with isoprene (IIR) cationic polymerization in the environment of methyl chloride on aluminum trichloride as the catalyst. Based on experimental data on the kinetics of copolymerization (isobutylene conversion curve) and the molecular weight characteristics of the copolymer of IIR, kinetic constants for the process were found. Adequacy of the developed theoretical description of the kinetics of the IIR copolymerization process was confirmed by comparing the experimental molecular-weight characteristics calculated by this description, independent characteristics, and IIR unsaturation.

This contribution presents an investigation on noise sensitivity of some of the most disseminated techniques employed to estimate Lyapunov exponents from time series. Since noise contamination is unavoidable in cases of data acquisition, it is important to recognize techniques that could be employed for a correct identification of chaos. State space reconstruction and the determination of Lyapunov exponents are carried out to investigate the response of a nonlinear pendulum. Signals are generated by numerical integration of the mathematical model, selecting a single variable of the system as a time series. In order to simulate experimental data sets, a random noise is introduced in the signal. Basically, the analyses of periodic and chaotic motions are carried out. Results obtained from mathematical model are compared with the one obtained from time series analysis, evaluating noise sensitivity. This procedure allows the identification of the best techniques to be employed in the analysis of experimental data.

Dehydrated garlic is an important component both for culinary and medicinal purposes. However, there is a scarcity of studies that characterizes its drying kinetics. Thus, the objective of this work was to study the drying kinetics of Chinese garlic (Allium tuberosum), as well as to analyze the color effect resulting from each treatment. The garlic bulbs were cut into thin slices with a width of 2 and 3 mm, subjected to the drying air temperature of 35, 45, 55 and 70 °C in a mechanical dryer of a fixed layer with forced convection. Was performed a non-linear regression analysis by the Quasi-Newton method, for adjustment to 11 mathematical models to the experimental data of drying. The Midilli equation was the mathematical model that best characterized all the drying temperatures, for the experimental data. The diffusion coefficient presented values between 1.46 x 10-11 and 7.32 x 10-11 m2.s-1. The increase of the drying air temperature caused the dimming of the samples with a reduction of the L* coordinate and reduction of the yellow of the samples according to the coordinate results h*. The temperature of 70 °C was detrimental to the maintenance of the Chinese garlic coloration.

Presented is mathematical model of kinetics of the process of O-antigen and cholera toxin synthesis during periodical submerged cultivation of V. cholerae 569В Inaba with limitation as regards carbonic substrate. The proposed model is based upon analysis of experimental data on V. cholerae 569В Inaba biomass and antigens accumulation, rate of growth and antigens release, and glucose utilization. Using Mathcad 15.0 software calculated are coefficients of differential equations entering into the mathematical model. Comparison of predicted and experimental data demonstrates that relative error of determination of concentrations of the synthesized substances, glucose and cholera vibrio is between 5 and 20 %. The proposed model permits to determine maximum output of final products and specify the parameters of cultivation process performance at different initial conditions.

The article is devoted to determine the technological parameters of soil compaction by rollers according to soil properties in construction. The compaction of the soil occurs due to certain force loads on the soil. Nowadays, there are enough methods to determine the technological parameters of soil compaction process, however, there are few research methods that consider the system of soil-machine-technological parameters. The urgency of the soil compaction process, which ultimately determines the quality of construction products, was emphasized. The basic physical and mechanical properties of soil and technological parameters of the compaction process were given. Analysis of discrete mathematical model of interaction between roller and soil was carried out in order to determine the technological parameters of soil compaction process in the field of construction technologies. A rheological model to describe the soil properties was used. The differential equations of the interaction between roller and soil have been made. A numerical calculation method to solve the differential equations has been proposed. The basic technological parameters of soil compaction process by rollers have been determined - the thickness of soil layer to be compacted, the number of the roller passes, and the speed of the roller movement. The methodology of theoretical and experimental researches of interaction between roller and soil has been proposed in order to clarify the mathematical model and to find the technological parameters of the compaction process. Experimental research methods are based on the determination of the stress-strain state of soil and on the Fourier analysis of the experimental data. Fourier analysis of the experimental data makes it possible to analyze the qualitative energy spectrum of the interaction between roller and soil to determine the rational amplitude-frequency characteristics of the compaction process. Experimental studies allow obtaining such rheological properties of soil as elasticity, viscosity, coefficient of elastic resistance, etc. The main recommendations for the choice of compaction method depending on the type of soil have been proposed.
