Model construction algorithms

RMG, which was implemented by Jing Song (2004), uses a version of the rate-based model-construction algorithm described by Susnow et al. (1997), but it treats non-thermalized chemically-activated reaction paths on an equal basis with ordinary thermal reactions, as done by Matheu et al. (Matheu, 2003 Matheu et al., 2003a, b). Byproducts and activated reaction intermediates are... 

The model construction check is needed to confirm the correct structure and operation of the model algorithms over the range of conditions and model parameters expected. 

But what must one know before "constructing any (including kinetic) model First its basic elements, secondly the main laws and principles of the processes that are to be accounted for by the model, and thirdly the algorithm (the instruction) for the model construction. For kinetic models the basic elements are chemical substances and elementary acts the main laws are the laws of mass action and surface action the algorithms for model construction are the methods to derive kinetic equations suggested by Tern-kin, those to determine kinetic equation constants, etc. 

For silicon, if 4-fold rings are explicitly prohibited by the algorithm, which was the case for the first model constructed [1], the randomization temperature is found to be AtTto = 1.0 eV. This order-to-disorder transformation is quite sharp and well-defined. The reverse is not.

Since the first problem is far from its solution, a postulated (not real) chemical mechanism of a reaction, that is, grounded and probable only in one or another degree, is taken as the basis of a kinetic model construction. Therefore, the task is not to obtain the kinetic model of a concrete catalytic or radical-chain process, but to develop the algorithm... 

There is a number of references [1-13] in which an algorithm of the kinetic models construction is described, but mainly two widely used methods are applied, namely linear algebra [1, 2, 7, 10-13] and the theory of graphs (5, 6, 8, 9]. In the most of the proposed algorithms the main attention is paid into obtaining the expression for the rate of an elementary reaction. Principally, it suffices to use the vector of a rate of an elementary reaction to determine the vector of the rate of a composite substance s formation and in such a way to describe the evolution of a chemical system s composition. In particular cases, however, the expressions for the final reactions rates are retained, since in complicated systems with a set of final reactions the knowledge of an elementary reaction rate does not mean knowledge of the final reactions rates. 

We have emphasized that the approach described above, although it was constructed using models and theoretical considerations, is totally based on experimental observation. No knowledge of the underlying kinetics is required, though obviously the more one knows, the more likely one is to succeed. We can summarize our oscillator construction algorithm as follows ... 

In the future we plan to further improve our language with higher level modelling constructs. We also plan to develop new model checking algorithms based on induction techniques. 

The reaction matrices of Table 1, the reaction rules of Table 2, the QSRC/LFER correlations of Eq. 1, and the automated model-building algorithm of Figure 3 were used to construct various kinetic model versions for mixtures containing molecules from C% to 24-...

Identifying seed points for the autotracking algorithm, and assigning values for the autotracking parameters are ways of injecting geological expertise into model construction.
