Model asymptotic

Generally speaking, the virial expansion model, asymptotically exact for very large aspect ratios, is applicable only when the volume fraction of rods is very small (second virial approximation), whereas the lattice model may be more reliable at rod concentrations in typical lyotropic phases. The implications of both models are still being explored today. Inclusion of a distribution of rod... 

The order parameter was arguably first introduced by Landau at the equilibrium thermodynamic level to study phase behavior. Order parameter models can also be motivated through classical bifurcation theory, and several physical systems have been recently modeled in this way. They include Rayleigh-Benard convection, Faraday waves,or pattern formation in optical systems. Close to a bifurcation point, these models asymptotically describe the system under study, but they are now routinely used, in a phenomenological feshion, to describe highly nonlinear phenomena. 

Phase transitions of confined fluids were extensively studied by various theoretical approaches and by computer simulations (see Refs. [28, 278] for review). The modification of the fluid phase diagrams in confinement was extensively studied theoretically for two main classes of porous media single pores (stit-Uke and cylindrical) and disordered porous systems. In a slit-like pore, there are true phase transitions that assume coexistence of infinite phases. Accordingly, the liquid-vapor critical point is a true critical point, which belongs to the universality class of 2D Ising model. Asymptotically close to the pore critical point, the coexistence curve in slit pore is characterized by the critical exponent of the order parameter = 0.125. The crossover from 3D critical behavior at low temperature to the 2D critical behavior near the critical point occurs when the 3D correlation length becomes comparable with the pore width i/p. 

Single surface calculations with a vector potential in the adiabatic representation and two surface calculations in the diabatic representation with or without shifting the conical intersection from the origin are performed using Cartesian coordinates. As in the asymptotic region the two coordinates of the model represent a translational and a vibrational mode, respectively, the initial wave function for the ground state can be represented as. 

In summary, a combination of the plot based on equation (10.6), using any single substance, and determination of the asymptote (10.14), using any pair of substances, provides a sound means of evaluating the parameters K, tC and. Having found these, further experimental points on (10.6) and (10.15), and possibly also (10.7), provide a check on the adequacy of the dusty gas model. Provided attention is limited to binary mixtures, this check can be quite comprehensive. In their published paper Gunn and King... 

Both func tions are tabulated in mathematical handbooks (Ref. I). The function P gives the goodness of fit. Call %q the value of at the minimum. Then P > O.I represents a believable fit if ( > 0.001, it might be an acceptable fit smaller values of Q indicate the model may be in error (or the <7 are really larger.) A typical value of for a moderately good fit is X" - V. Asymptotic Iy for large V, the statistic X becomes normally distributed with a mean V ana a standard deviation V( (Ref. 231). 

Model foim. On the basis of the nature of the data, an exponential model was selected initially to represent the trend if = a + he. In this example, the resultant temperature would approach as an asymptotic (a with c negative) the wet-hnlh temperature of the surrounding atmosphere. Unfortunately, this temperature was not reported. 

To conclude this section let us note that already, with this very simple model, we find a variety of behaviors. There is a clear effect of the asymmetry of the ions. We have obtained a simple description of the role of the major constituents of the phenomena—coulombic interaction, ideal entropy, and specific interaction. In the Lie group invariant (78) Coulombic attraction leads to the term -cr /2. Ideal entropy yields a contribution proportional to the kinetic pressure 2 g +g ) and the specific part yields a contribution which retains the bilinear form a g +a g g + a g. At high charge densities the asymptotic behavior is determined by the opposition of the coulombic and specific non-coulombic contributions. At low charge densities the entropic contribution is important and, in the case of a totally symmetric electrolyte, the effect of the specific non-coulombic interaction is cancelled so that the behavior of the system is determined by coulombic and entropic contributions. 

The CBS models use the known asymptotic convergence of pair natural orbital expansions to extrapolate from calculations using a finite basis set to the estimated complete basis set limit. See Appendix A for more details on this technique. 

The form of that function is shown in Figure 3.2. There are two specific parameters that can be immediately observed from this function. The first is that the maximal asymptote of the function is given solely by the magnitude of A/B. The second is that the location parameter of the function (where it lies along the input axis) is given by C/B. It can be seen that when [Input] equals C/B the output necessarily will be 0.5. Therefore, whatever the function the midpoint of the curve will lie on a point at Input = C/B. These ideas are useful since they describe two essential behaviors of any dmg-receptor model namely, the maximal response (A/B) and the potency (concentration of input required for effect C/B). Many of the complex equations... 

The proposed model of the structure of oxyfluoride melts corresponds with the conductivity results shown in Fig. 69. The specific conductivity of the melt drops abruptly and asymptotically approaches a constant value with the increase in tantalum oxide concentration. This can be regarded as an additional indication of the formation of oxyfluorotantale-associated polyanions, which leads to a decrease in the volume in which light ions, such as potassium and fluorine, can move. The formation of the polyanions can be presented as follows ... 

The penetration theory holds for the region where t is much less than L2jD, the film theory for the region where t is much greater than L2/D. This comparison is shown in Fig. 8, which clearly shows that the film and penetration theories are asymptotes of the film-penetration model. 

The Warner function has all the desired asymptotical characteristics, i.e. a linear dependence of f(r) on r at small deformation and a finite length Nlp in the limit of infinite force (Fig. 3). In a non-deterministic flow such as a turbulent flow, it was found useful to model f(r) with an anharmonic oscillator law which permits us to account for the deviation of f(r) from linearity in the intermediate range of chain deformation [34] ... 

Indeed, the multi-layered model, applied to fiber reinforced composites, presented a basic inconsistency, as it appeared in previous publications17). This was its incompatibility with the assumption that the boundary layer, constituting the mesophase between inclusions and matrix, should extent to a thickness well defined by thermodynamic measurements, yielding jumps in the heat capacity values at the glass-transition temperature region of the composites. By leaving this layer in the first models to extent freely and tend, in an asymptotic manner, to its limiting value of Em, it was allowed to the mesophase layer to extend several times further, than the peel anticipated from thermodynamic measurements, fact which does not happen in its new versions.

The points are experimental data, the curves were calculated in [105] according to the quantum J-diffusion model and two vertical broken lines determine the region in which Eq. (2.58) is valid.

This is a rather general conclusion independent of the model of rotational relaxation. It is quite clear from Eq. (2.70) and Eq. (2.16) that the high-frequency asymptotic behaviour of both spectra is determined by the shape of g(co) ...

In the absence of diffusion, all hydrodynamic models show infinite variances. This is a consequence of the zero-slip condition of hydrodynamics that forces Vz = 0 at the walls of a vessel. In real systems, molecular diffusion will ultimately remove molecules from the stagnant regions near walls. For real systems, W t) will asymptotically approach an exponential distribution and will have finite moments of all orders. However, molecular diffusivities are low for liquids, and may be large indeed. This fact suggests the general inappropriateness of using to characterize the residence time distribution in a laminar flow system. Turbulent flow is less of a problem due to eddy diffusion that typically results in an exponentially decreasing tail at fairly low multiples of the mean residence time.
