Coimbatore Institute of Technology, India, organized an International Conference on Modeling and Simulation (CITICOMS 2007) during August 27–29, 2007. The conference covered research works on modeling & simulation in a large number of diverse disciplines viz., biotechnology, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, civil engineering, mathematics and nanotechnology, electrical engineering, electronic engineering and computer engineering.This special issue presents a set of nine selected research papers, which have undergone the peer-review process of the journal of Chemical Product and Process Modeling. Although these papers do not cover the entire gamut of modeling and simulation activities, they certainly present interesting and useful topics. In particular these topics include the black box modeling approach for identification of nonlinear systems, kinetic modeling of the adsorptive removal of toxic and hazardous pollutants from wastewaters, analysis and modeling of homogeneous tubular reactors, monolithic catalytic converters, and a constitutive model equation for the rheological behaviour of three phase polymer blends or so called double emulsions.

The literature discussing the concepts, technologies, and ICT-based urban innovation approaches of smart cities has been growing, along with initiatives from cities all over the world that are competing to improve their services and become smart and sustainable. However, current studies that provide a comprehensive understanding and reveal smart and sustainable city research trends and characteristics are still lacking. Meanwhile, policymakers and practitioners alike need to pursue progressive development. In response to this shortcoming, this research offers content analysis studies based on topic modeling approaches to capture the evolution and characteristics of topics in the scientific literature on smart and sustainable city research. More importantly, a novel topic-detecting algorithm based on the deep learning and clustering techniques, namely deep autoencoders-based fuzzy C-means (DFCM), is introduced for analyzing the research topic trend. The topics generated by this proposed algorithm have relatively higher coherence values than those generated by previously used topic detection methods, namely non-negative matrix factorization (NMF), latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA), and eigenspace-based fuzzy C-means (EFCM). The 30 main topics that appeared in topic modeling with the DFCM algorithm were classified into six groups (technology, energy, environment, transportation, e-governance, and human capital and welfare) that characterize the six dimensions of smart, sustainable city research.

The role of organic chemistry and other chemical disciplines in the system of training qualified personnel for the pharmaceutical industry is indisputable. In what direction is chemistry developing in the modern world? What innovative directions does chemistry offer to drug developers? Can a robot synthesize a new compound? How to achieve practically significant results of scientific research? How may the obtained results be published in highly rated journals? These and many other topics were widely discussed at the XII International Conference of Students and Young Scientists in Chemistry «Mendeleev-2021» held in the fall of 2021. This article is published to attract young researchers’ attention to topical issues at the interface of chemistry and pharmacy and assist them in realizing their creative scientific potential.

The paper presents a design and development of a multi-station automated hand-washing system (MSAHWS) that could be integrated into overall solution strategies for combating the threat of SARS-Cov-2 infections and minimizing the health and economic devastation the virus spread can inflict. The researchers seek to create a system that uses a single micro-controller and caters to several users, each of them being served independently of each other. The MSAHWS development follows a four-part methodology: formulation of the sanitary, operational, manufacturing and economic requirements; design, modeling, and simulation of the micro-controller-based control system; MSAHWS hardware prototype development; and system test and data collection. The MSAHWS design and development focuses on a double-station system that uses a single Arduino Uno, an ultrasonic sensor for each station, 4 FET’s, 4 liquid pumps, a water tank, a soap reservoir, a power supply and a frame to house the system. The non-contact system eliminates possible viral transmission from one person to another via the hand washing machine yet ensures the required cleanliness of the hands. The system is first simulated in PROTEUS to test its functionality and responses based on the demanded or required criteria. A prototype is then built to test and verify the system’s actual operation and responses and thence to make the necessary adjustment of parameters to realize an acceptable performance level. Tests show that all the requirements are met. Photos of the built and tested prototype, a diagram of the initial system design concept, a screen capture of the control system software model, a schematic diagram of the control system, a sketch with dimensions of the hand washing machine frame or housing, and the flowchart on which the Arduino script is developed. The operation and user-interaction of the actual system is also described. The control system program is written such that the resulting hand washing activity complies with the WHO standard on hand washing duration and makes entirely possible a complete and hygienic hand washing activity with soap and water. The system is envisioned for strategic deployment in public and private areas like public markets, banks, hospitals, schools, offices, residences, and many others.
