Hybrid Reduced Form and Structural. These models combine the Merton structnral approach with Jarrow s variables. ... 

Typically, a non-linear system dynamic model is made up of individual lumped models of the components which at a minimum conserve mass and energy across the given component, but may also have a momentum equation if pressure drops must also be analyzed. For most dynamic problems of interest in hybrid studies, however, the momentum equation may be taken as quasi-steady (unless the solver requires the dynamic form to perform the numerical solution). Higher fidelity individual models or reduced order models (ROMs) can also be used, where the connection to the system model would be made at each subcomponent boundary. Since dynamic systems modeling is not as common as steady-state modeling, some discussion of modeling approaches will be given. There are two primary methods used to provide solutions for the pressure-flow dynamics of a system model. 

To improve our model we note that s- and /7-orbitals are waves of electron density centered on the nucleus of an atom. We imagine that the four orbitals interfere with one another and produce new patterns where they intersect, like waves in water. Where the wavefunctions are all positive or all negative, the amplitudes are increased by this interference where the wavefunctions have opposite signs, the overall amplitude is reduced and might even be canceled completely. As a result, the interference between the atomic orbitals results in new patterns. These new patterns are called hybrid orbitals. Each of the four hybrid orbitals, designated bn, is formed from a linear combinations of the four atomic orbitals ... 

Studies on proton transfer to and from carbon in model reactions have shown that the activation barrier to most enzyme-catalyzed reactions is composed mainly of the thermodynamic barrier to proton transfer (Fig. 1.1), so that in most cases this barrier for proton transfer at the enzyme active site will need to be reduced in order to observe efficient catalysis. A smaller part of the activation barrier to deprotonation of a-carbonyl carbon is due to the intrinsic difficulty of this reaction to form a resonance stabilized enolate. There is evidence that part of the intrinsic barrier to proton transfer at a-carbonyl carbon reflects the intrinsic instability of negative charge at the transition state of mixed sp -sp -hybridization at carbon [79]. Small buffer and metal ion catalysts do not cause a large reduction in this intrinsic reaction barrier.
