Partial systems

Apart from dividing a system in different aggregation levels, or sub-systems, another division of a system can be created. A division into different aspects inside a system. As defined by de Leeuw (Leeuw de, 1986), an aspect-system is a collection of relationships between certain elements inside a system. An aspect-system is also called a partial system, which is actually derived from mathematics i.e. in partial differentiation, the relationships between certain elements are assumed to be a constant factor, as is the case in an aspect-system. 

The molecules in the second row of this figure show localized orbitals of all types. The first on the lower left, pyrene, has type tt 2 on the outer branches containing two non-joint atoms, type jt 3 on the outer branches containing three non-joint atoms, and a type rr 4 on one of the inner joint atoms. Benzpyrene, in the center of the bottom row, is similar to pyrene in its upper part and to naphthalene in its lower part. Correspondingly, the localized structure is in fact similar to that of pyrene in the upper part and similar to that of naphthalene in the lower part. In the center of the molecule, where these two partial systems are fused, a sort of compromise is reached by a suitable deformation of what was a pure ir 4 orbital in pyrene. The molecule at the lower, right, anthanthrene, has a rather ingenious combination of interlocking localized orbitals of type 7r 2, 7t 3, tt 4 to cover the condensed network. 

In ternary systems of relevance to solvent extraction these may be two (partly) immiscible solvents and one (solid) solute, or two (solid) solutes and a single solvent. The latter system may constitute a partial system of quaternary or higher mixtures that involve two liquid phases, which are solvent extraction systems. In principle, however, a system of two solid solutes and a liquid solvent could split into two liquid phases, one rich in the one solute, the second in the other. In general, when one solute crystallizes out from a ternary (two solutes... 

Use case specifications document functional requirements. The next step is to design the partial system that the current iteration is supposed to deliver. The gap between requirements and design is not trivial, and a bridge between the two is desired. This bridge is what object-oriented analysis is about. The domain analysis object model is not the final design. However, it provides a starting point for the design process. 

Again regardless of in-house or outsource development, document a list of features and prioritize them. Break the project down into short, timeboxed iterations, each focusing on one or two of these features (Chapter 5). Do not let the iteration deadline slip. Reduce the scope of the iteration if necessary. Implement features with high business values and high business and technical risks in early iterations. Make sure each iteration delivers a production quality partial system to solicit feedback and let the system grow incrementally. The project plan should be adjusted based on the feedback. It is OK if the initial project plan is not accurate. However, it should become more and more accurate as more iterations are completed. Test and integrate early and frequently. 

The aim of the application of factor analysis (FA) to environmental problems is to characterize the complex changes which occur to all the features observed in partial systems of the natural environment. These common factors explain the complex state of the environment more comprehensively and causally and so enable extraction of the essential part of the information contained in a set of data. 

The purpose of application of factor analysis (FA) is the characterization of complex changes of all observed features in partial systems of the environment by determination of summarized factors which are more comprehensive and causally explicable. The method extracts the essential information from a data set. The exclusive consideration of common factors in the reduced factor analytical solution seems to be particularly promising for the analytical process. The specific variances of the observed features will be separated from the reduced factor analytical results by means of the estimation of the communalities. They do not falsify the influence of the main pollution sources (see also Tab. 7-2). The mathematical fundamentals of FA are explained in detail in Section 5.4.3 (see also [MALINOWSKI, 1991 WEBER, 1986]).

Glufosinate is a postemergent, nonselective, partially systemic contact herbicide which acts on leaves as well as in the plant after uptake and transport. Its action is delayed at lower temperatures. It causes inhibition of photosynthesis and interferes with amino add metabolism of the plant, thereby causing accumulation of NH4. The most important uses are in the control of seed and root weeds in vineyards, and in fruit growing. A relatively quick degradation with a half-life between 30 and 40 days occurs in the soil. 

The Cu" ions are separated from the Zn ions by a membrane which is permeable for the corresponding counter ions, such as SO4 ions, but not for the metal ions. Accordingly, an electrical connection across the membrane is achieved by the transport of the SO " ions. An equilibrium throughout the whole cell does not exist because exchange of the metal ions between the two partial systems has been made impossible. On the other hand, equilibrium still exists in the two half-cells, i.e. between the Cu electrode and the Cu in the left compartment and between the Zn electrode and the Zn in the right one. However, the electrochemical potentials of the electrons in the two electrodes are different. The electrochemical potentials of the electrons for the reactions (3.31a) and (3.31b) can be derived by applying Eq. (3.29). Tlieir difference is then given by...

The fundamentals of liquid/liquid extraction are provided by the thermodynamic theory of equilibrium. Two immiscible liquid partial systems 1 and 2 are in equilibrium when all mass-, energy-, and impulse-transfer processes have come to a stop, that is, when the chemical potential, temperature, and pressure are the same in both phases. If Equation (2.3.4-1) is set up for a component E in phase 1 or 2, then the chemical potential describes the state of the pure component E with the properties of the ideal dilute solution ... 

In the partial systems 1 and 2 the chemical potentials of component E can each be described by Equation (2.3.4-1). When equilibrium is being established. Equation (2.3.4-2) applies for the distribution of the component E between the two phases 1 and 2 ... 

As a whole, the quasibinary character of the Fc2P-Cu3P section allows to triangulate the ternary Cu-Fe-P system along this section and to consider the phase equilibria of flie Fe-Fc2P-Cu3P-Cu partial system independently of the more P-rich part of the system.

Edward Felten and others have described a number of strong attacks that are partially system attacks and partially social attacks, in which they take advantage of certain features in the way systems such as Web browsers are designed, combined with expected user behavior. 

The partial systems are analysed separately and the results are utilised for the final valuation of the system.
