So far, some researchers have analyzed particle fluidization behaviors in a RFB, however, they have not well studied yet, since particle fluidization behaviors are very complicated. In this study, fundamental particle fluidization behaviors of Geldart s group B particle in a RFB were numerically analyzed by using a Discrete Element Method (DEM)- Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) coupling model [3]. First of all, visualization of particle fluidization behaviors in a RFB was conducted. Relationship between bed pressure drop and gas velocity was also investigated by the numerical simulation. In addition, fluctuations of bed pressure drop and particle mixing behaviors of radial direction were numerically analyzed. 

In the following sections, we will review several ESIPT systems that have been strategically designed to probe solvent polarization coupled reaction dynamics. The experimental results render firm support of the modem theoretical model. 

In the past decade, vibronic coupling models have been used extensively and successfully to explain the short-time excited-state dynamics of small to medium-sized molecules [200-202]. In many cases, these models were used in conjunction with the MCTDH method [203-207] and the comparison to experimental data (typically electronic absorption spectra) validated both the MCTDH method and the model potentials, which were obtained by fitting high-level quantum chemistry calculations. In certain cases the ab initio-determined parameters were modified to agree with experimental results (e.g., excitation energies). The MCTDH method assumes the existence of factorizable parameterized PESs and is thus very different from AIMS. However, it does scale more favorably with system size than other numerically exact quantum... 

Muller and Stock [227] used the vibronic coupling model Hamiltonian, Section III.D, to compare surface hopping and Ehrenfest dynamics with exact calculations for a number of model cases. The results again show that the semiclassical methods are able to provide a qualitative, if not quantitative, description of the dynamics. A large-scale comparison of mixed method and quantum dynamics has been made in a study of the pyrazine absorption spectrum, including all 24 degrees of freedom [228]. Here a method related to Ehrenfest dynamics was used with reasonable success, showing that these methods are indeed able to reproduce the main features of the dynamics of non-adiabatic molecular systems.

In most liquid- and solid-phase systems, the dilute approximation is typically invalid, and, as a result, many body effects play a significant role. Many body effects are manifested through the effect of solvent or catalyst on reactivity and through concentration-dependent reaction rate parameters. Under these conditions, the one-way coupling is inadequate, and fully coupled models across scales are needed, i.e., two-way information traffic exists. This type of modeling is the most common in chemical sciences and will be of primary interest hereafter. In recent papers the terms multiscale integration hybrid, parallel, dynamic,...

From these time-scales, it may be assumed in most circumstances that the free electrons have a Maxwellian distribution and that the dominant populations of impurities in the plasma are those of the ground and metastable states of the various ions. The dominant populations evolve on time-scales of the order of plasma diffusion time-scales and so should be modeled dynamically, that is in the particle number continuity equations, along with the momentum and energy equations of plasma transport theory. The excited populations of impurities on the other hand may be assumed relaxed with respect to the instantaneous dominant populations, that is they are in a quasi-equilibrium. The quasi-equilibrium is determined by local conditions of electron temperature and electron density. So, the atomic modeling may be partially de-coupled from the impurity transport problem into local calculations which provide quasi-equilibrium excited ion populations and effective emission coefficients (PEC coefficients) and then effective source coefficients (GCR coefficients) for dominant populations which must be entered into the transport equations. The solution of the transport equations establishes the spatial and temporal behaviour of the dominant populations which may then be re-associated with the local emissivity calculations, for matching to and analysis of observations. 

Another approach to the rupture of thin liquid films, proposed by Tsekov and Radoev [84,85], is based on stochastic modeling of this critical transition. Autocorrelation functions for steady state [84] and for thinning [85] liquid films were obtained. A method for calculation of the lifetime At and hcr of films was introduced. It accounts for the effect of the spatial correlation of waves. The existence of non-correlated subdomains leads to decrease in At and increase in hcr as a result of the increase in the possibility for film rupture. Coupling of dynamics of surface waves and rate of drainage v leading to stabilisation of thinning films has also been accounted for [86,87]. 

The microscopic model, however, cannot take into account net coupling of dynamic dipoles oriented parallel to the surface for the thin (microscopic) film. Such coupling in adsorbed monolayers has been shown [57] by probing an otherwise disallowed transition on a metal through a combination band, to result in a red shift from the singleton frequency. This effect of parallel and normal dipole components can be best exemplified by comparison of the RAIRS spectrum of an isotropic physisorbed molecule with a very strong dipole oscillator, v(C-O) in Mo(CO)6, with the gas phase value (singleton frequency) [58]...

In spite of the practical usefulness of such empirical sector mles, the physical origin of the optical activity in these molecules remains an open question. In fact, polarizability calculations (both by means of the Weigang amplified sector mle for allowed transitions and the DeVoe dynamic coupling model), taking full account of the interaction between the Ag — transition dipole and the polarizable matter around it, give the wrong sign. 

The vibronic spectra of Do — Di — D2 electronic states recoded by da Silva Filho et al. [45] revealed resolved vibrational structures of the Do and D2 electronic states and a broad and structureless band for the Di state. A slow ( 3-20 ps) and fast k, 200 fs) relaxation components are estimated for the Dq D2 transition in a (femto)picosecond transient grating spectroscopy measurements [16]. The fast component is attributed to the Do D2 transition and a nonradiative relaxation time of 212 fs is also estimated from the cavity ringdown (CRD) spectroscopy data [42]. Electronic structure results of Hall et al. [107] suggest that the nonradiative Do D2 relaxation occurs via two consecutive sloped type CIs [66,108]. We developed a global model PESs for the Do — Di— D2 electronic states and devised a vibronic coupling model to study the nuclear dynamics underlying the complex vibronic spectrum and ultrafast excited state decay of N +[20].
