Stability, Bifurcations, Limit Cycles Some aspects of this subject involve the solution of nonlinear equations other aspects involve the integration of ordinaiy differential equations apphcations include chaos and fractals as well as unusual operation of some chemical engineering eqmpment. Ref. 176 gives an excellent introduction to the subject and the details needed to apply the methods. Ref. 66 gives more details of the algorithms. A concise survey with some chemical engineering examples is given in Ref. 91. Bifurcation results are closely connected with stabihty of the steady states, which is essentially a transient phenomenon. 

Pertinent examples on partial molar properties are presented in Smith, Van Ness, and Abbott (Introduction to Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics, 5th ed.. Sec. 10.3, McGraw-Hill, NewYonc, 1996). Gibbs/Duhem Equation Differentiation of Eq. (4-50) yields...

Introduction Ask any chemical engineer who has had some plant experience what he or she knows about vacuum and the engineer will probably smile and tell some tale about some piece of eqiiip-ment that tried to turn itself inside out. Usually no one was hurt, and often there was no massive leakage—but not always ...

The current undergraduate curriculum in chemical engineering, although it provides an excellent conceptual base for graduates who move into the electronics industries, could be improved by the introduction of instractional material and example problems relevant to the challenges outlined in this chapter. This would not require the creation of new courses, but rather the provision of material to emich existing ones. This theme is echoed, more broadly, in Chapter 10.
