Dynamic Analyses

As illustration for a dynamic stability analysis we consider a simple two-dimensional 

The steady state of this system is determined by the two simultaneous equations 

Bifurcation diagram for equations (7.198) and (7.199) with two Hopf bifurcation points 

The stability characteristics of the steady-state points is then determined via an eigenvalue analysis of the linearized version of the two DE (7.198) and (7.199). The linearized form of equations (7.198) and (7.199) is as follows  

From the linearized equations (7.201) and (7.202) we form the right-hand side matrix 

The natural frequency of structures tends to increase with increasing water depths and may coincide with the frequency of the larger waves. If the natural frequency of the soil-structure system coincides with the frequency of the exciting forces, large foundation movements may result. Therefore, reasonable response of the soil-structure system must also be available for evaluating the dynamic response of the structure. The contribution and importance of the soil response is increasing as structures are built for deeper waters. 

Several rheometers do not subject the polymer to a steady rate of deformation but to an oscillatory deformation, usually sinusoidal simple shear. If the angular frequency is o, and the shear strain amplitude Yo. the shear strain y can be written as a function of time  

The shear rate is determined by differentiating the shear strain with respect to time. The shear rate is  

Dynamic analysis is generally used to study the linear viscoelastic properties of polymers. The region of linear viscoelastic behavior is where a material function, such as shear modulus or shear viscosity, is independent of the amplitude of the strain or strain rate. Polymers follow linear viscoelastic behavior when the strain or strain rate is sufficiently small. Thus, if the strain amplitude is sufficiently small, the shear stress can be written as  

Equation 6.73 can be rewritten by introducing an in-phase modulus G (real) and a 90° out-of-phase modulus G (imaginary)  

The storage modulus G represents the elastic contribution associated with energy storage it is a function of the stress and strain amplitude and the phase angle  

It is interesting to see how the glucose and insulin concentrations react to an infusion with glucose. It demonstrates the ability of the system of a healthy person to maintain desired glucose and insulin levels without external intervention. A disturbance is given of 80,000 mg/h glucose during 12 minutes. 

As can be seen both concentrations fall below the steady-state values, before returning to normal. This is also observed in a real situation. From Eqn. (18.2) it can be seen that the insulin impacts on the glucose level. 

In the simulation a first-order transfer function has been added between the plasma insulin concentration and the so-called active insulin concentration. The active insulin concentration affects the glucose balance. The relationship between insulin concentration and active insulin concentration is therefore

A completely different approach, in particular for fast imimolecular processes, extracts state-resolved kinetic infomiation from molecular spectra without using any fomi of time-dependent observation. This includes conventional line-shape methods, as well as the quantum-dynamical analysis of rovibrational overtone spectra [18, 33, 34 and 35]. 

The essential slow modes of a protein during a simulation accounting for most of its conformational variability can often be described by only a few principal components. Comparison of PGA with NMA for a 200 ps simulation of bovine pancreatic trypsic inhibitor showed that the variation in the first principal components was twice as high as expected from normal mode analy-si.s ([Hayward et al. 1994]). The so-called essential dynamics analysis method ([Amadei et al. 1993]) is a related method and will not be discussed here.

This method has a simple straightforward logic for even complex systems. Multinested loops are handled like ordinary branched systems, and it can be extended easily to handle dynamic analysis. However, a huge number of equations is involved. The number of unknowns to be solved is roughly equal to six times the number of node points. Therefore, in a simple three-anchor system, the number of equations to be solved in the flexibiUty method is only 12, whereas the number of equations involved in the direct stiffness method can be substantially larger, depending on the actual number of nodes. 

The effect of the disturbance on the controlled variable These models can be based on steady-state or dynamic analysis. The performance of the feedforward controller depends on the accuracy of both models. If the models are exac t, then feedforward control offers the potential of perfect control (i.e., holding the controlled variable precisely at the set point at all times because of the abihty to predict the appropriate control ac tion). However, since most mathematical models are only approximate and since not all disturbances are measurable, it is standara prac tice to utilize feedforward control in conjunction with feedback control. Table 8-5 lists the relative advantages and disadvantages of feedforward and feedback control. By combining the two control methods, the strengths of both schemes can be utilized. 

All these processes are, in common, liquid-gas mass-transfer operations and thus require similar treatment from the aspects of phase equilibrium and kinetics of mass transfer. The fluid-dynamic analysis ofthe eqmpment utihzed for the transfer also is similar for many types of liquid-gas process systems. 

Moisture-transport simulation includes transport as well as storage phenomena, quite similar to the thermal dynamic analysis, where heat transfer and heat storage in the building elements are modeled. The moisture content in the building construction can influence the thermal behavior, because material properties like conductance or specific heat depend on moisture content. In thermal building-dynamics simulation codes, however, these...

Although failure-mode analysis identifies the number and symptoms of machine-train problems, it does not always identify the tme root cause of problems. Root cause must be verified by visual inspection, additional testing, or other techniques such as operating dynamics analysis.

Dynamic analysis of piston flow reactors is fairly straightforward and rather unexciting for incompressible fluids. Piston flow causes the d5mamic response of the system to be especially simple. The form of response is a hmiting case of that found in real systems. We have seen that piston flow is usually a desirable regime from the viewpoint of reaction yields and selectivities. It turns out to be somewhat undesirable from a control viewpoint since there is no natural dampening of disturbances. 

The studies on adhesion are mostly concerned on predictions and measurements of adhesion forces, but this section is written from a different standpoint. The author intends to present a dynamic analysis of adhesion which has been recently published [7], with the emphasis on the mechanism of energy dissipation. When two solids are brought into contact, or inversely separated apart by applied forces, the process will never go smoothly enough—the surfaces will always jump into and out of contact, no matter how slowly the forces are applied. We will show later that this is originated from the inherent mechanical instability of the system in which two solid bodies of certain stiffness interact through a distance dependent on potential energy. 

The assumption of independent oscillators allows us to study a simplified system containing only one atom, as illustrated in Fig. 14 where x and Xq denote, respectively, the coordinates of the atom and the support block (substrate). The dynamic analysis for the system in tangential sliding is similar to that of adhesion, as described in the previous section. For a given potential V and spring stiffness k, the total energy of the system is again written as... 

In this work, the MeOH kinetic model of Lee et al. [9] is adopted for the micro-channel fluid dynamics analysis. Pressure and concentration distributions are investigated and represented to provide the physico-chemical insight on the transport phenomena in the microscale flow chamber. The mass, momentum, and species equations were employed with kinetic equations that describe the chemical reaction characteristics to solve flow-field, methanol conversion rate, and species concentration variations along the micro-reformer channel.

This analysis is limited, since it is based on a steady-state criterion. The linearisation approach, outlined above, also fails in that its analysis is restricted to variations, which are very close to the steady state. While this provides excellent information on the dynamic stability, it cannot predict the actual trajectory of the reaction, once this departs from the near steady state. A full dynamic analysis is, therefore, best considered in terms of the full dynamic model equations and this is easily effected, using digital simulation. The above case of the single CSTR, with a single exothermic reaction, is covered by the simulation examples, THERMPLOT and THERM. Other simulation examples, covering aspects of stirred-tank reactor stability are COOL, OSCIL, REFRIG and STABIL. 

Transient cavitation is generally due to gaseous or vapor filled cavities, which are believed to be produced at ultrasonic intensity greater than 10 W/cm2. Transient cavitation involves larger variation in the bubble sizes (maximum size reached by the cavity is few hundred times the initial size) over a time scale of few acoustic cycles. The life time of transient bubble is too small for any mass to flow by diffusion of the gas into or out of the bubble however evaporation and condensation of liquid within the cavity can take place freely. Hence, as there is no gas to act as cushion, the collapse is violent. Bubble dynamics analysis can be easily used to understand whether transient cavitation can occur for a particular set of operating conditions. A typical bubble dynamics profile for the case of transient cavitation has been given in Fig. 2.2. By assuming adiabatic collapse of bubble, the maximum temperature and pressure reached after the collapse can be estimated as follows [2]. 

If the power dissipated into the system is increased, although the collapse pressure, as predicted using bubble dynamics analysis [14], decreases with an increase in the intensity, the number of cavitation events also increases (increase is substantial as compared to the negative effect of decreasing collapse pressure) thereby increasing the overall cavitational activity and hence enhanced effects can be observed. Usually the increase in number of cavities generated seizes after a...
