Order systems

The time-dependent structure factor S k,t), which is proportional to the intensity I k,t) measured in an elastic scattering experiment, is a measure of the strength of the spatial correlations in the ordering system with wavenumber k at time t. It exliibits a peak whose position is inversely proportional to the average domain size. As the system phase separates (orders) the peak moves towards increasingly smaller wavenumbers (see figure A3.3.3. 

In this section we consider the classical equations of motion of particles in cases where the highest-frequency oscillations are nearly harmonic The positions y t) = j/i (t) evolve according to the second-order system of differential equations... 

Other Color Order Systems. The Natural Color System (24), abbreviated NCS, developed ia Sweden is an outgrowth of the Hesselgren Color Adas, and uses the opponent color approach. Here colors are described on the basis of their resemblances to the basic color pairs red-green and blue-yeUow, and the amounts of black and white present, all evaluated as percentages. Consider a color that has 10% whiteness, 50% blackness, 20% yellowness, and 20% redness note that the sum is 100%. The overall NCS designation of this color is 50, 40, Y50R iadicating ia sequence the blackness, the chromaticness (20 + 20), and the hue (50% on the way from yellow to red the sequence used is Y, R, G, B, Y). 

Color-order systems, such as the many MunseU collections available from Macbeth, have been described previously. Essential for visual color matching is a color-matching booth. A typical one, such as the Macbeth Spectrahte, may have available a filtered 7500 K incandescent source equivalent to north-sky daylight, 2300 K incandescent illumination as horizon sunlight, a cool-white fluorescent lamp at 4150 K, and an ultraviolet lamp. By using the various illuminants, singly or in combination, the effects of metamerism and fluorescence can readily be demonstrated and measured. Every user should be checked for color vision deficiencies.

Higher-order systems can be approximated by a first or second-order plus dead-time system for control system design. 

The Van Krevelen-Hoftyzer relationship was tested experimentally for the second-order system in which CO9 reacts with either NaOH or KOH solutions by Nijsing et al. [Chem. Eng. ScL, 10, 88 (1959)]. Nijsing s results for the NaOH system are shown in Fig. 14-15 and are in excellent agreement with the second-order-reaction theory. Indeed, these experimental results can be described very well by Eqs. (14-80) and (14-81) when values of V = 2 and T)JT = 0.64 are employed in the equations.

These equations form a fourth-order system of differential equations which cannot be solved analytically in almost all interesting nonseparable cases. Further, according to these equations, the particle slides from the hump of the upside-down potential — V(Q) (see fig. 24), and, unless the initial conditions are specially chosen, it exercises an infinite aperiodic motion. In other words, the instanton trajectory with the required periodic boundary conditions,...

When the damping eoeffieient C of a seeond-order system has its eritieal value Q, the system, when disturbed, will reaeh its steady-state value in the minimum time without overshoot. As indieated in Table 3.4, this is when the roots of the Charaeteristie Equation have equal negative real roots. 

The ratio of the damping eoeffieient C in a seeond-order system eompared with the value of the damping eoeffieient Q required for eritieal damping is ealled the Damping Ratio ( (Zeta). Henee...
