Processing and Interpretation

Measurement of the punch and die forces plus the relative displacement of the punches can provide raw data which, when suitably processed and interpreted, facilitate the evaluation of many tableting parameters. Many of the workers first involved in instrumenting tablet presses concentrated on deriving relationships between the applied force (FA) and the porosity (E) of the consolidating mass. 

Several reviews of the mechanisms involved in the compaction process and interpretation of the large amount of data generated from such studies have been... 

There are many software tools available to help with the acquisition, processing and interpretation of NMR data. Attempts have been made to automate the verification process and even perform full structural elucidations of unknown compounds. As you might guess from the complexity of the interpretation chapters, these software solutions are not foolproof It remains to be seen whether they ever will be good enough but there have certainly been some major steps forward in all of these areas. 

A review by Dong et al. [3.57] provides an overview of how Fourier transform JR spectroscopy can be used to study protein stabilization and to prevent lyophilization- induced protein aggregation. An introduction to the study of protein secondary structures and the processing and interpretation of protein IR spectra is given. 

Despite this obvious potential, there are very few published sources providing case studies or guidelines for data acquisition, processing and interpretation. This absence undoubtedly reflects the proprietary and confidential nature of results obtained in exploration programs. 

However, applicability of the bottom-up approach is limited primarily by cost implications to conduct ecosystem risk assessment following accurately the formal U.S. EPA procedure, an assessor must spent huge amounts of time and money on collecting necessary input data, data processing and interpreting the outputs. Of importance, very specific data are often required that cannot be easily obtained with the help of standard environmental monitoring studies. 

The main objective for an intelligent system in electrolyser operations is to gather and process valuable information for a greater control and efficiency. To achieve the aforementioned objective, two key functions have to be performed properly. Firstly, accurate and precise real-time data need to be obtained and secondly, the system should be able to process and interpret these data based on fundamental and acquired industrial electrochemical knowledge. In the case of R2 s EMOS , this second key element refers directly to its capability to use embedded human expertise to find optimal operating solutions and to detect and correctly identify equipment degradation or other anomalies. 

In multiple-site systems, spurious cooperativity can occur along with genuine cooperativity (as defined in subsequent chapters). It is only in the single-site system that any apparent cooperativity is necessarily spurious, and therefore we place the discussion of this phenomena in this section. We shall return to spurious cooperativity in two-site systems in Section 4.6. The reader should keep in mind the possibility of spurious cooperativity whenever processing and interpreting experimental data, especially when one has reason to suspect that the two or more conformations might not be in equilibrium. 

Sensitivity analysis has the potential of generating an enormous (perhaps overwhelming) amount of data. The sensitivity coefficients are an m x n matrix, where m is the number of dependent variables in the underlying problem and n is the number of parameters in the analysis. Moreover the sensitivity matrix varies as a function of time. Even for modest-sized problems it is essential to have software and graphics that automatically assist processing and interpreting the sensitivity coefficients. 

We suggest a different approach to the determination of the secondary (target) reaction type in the chemical induction process and interpretation of conjugating reaction mechanism (refer to equations (3.6)—(3.10)). Firstly, in schemes (3.6)—(3.7) the reaction conjugated with H202 dissociation is taken for the secondary dehydrogenation reaction. A total change in the system is determined from the final equation ...

The following exercise connects the ideas surrounding the importance of nitrogen to agriculture and develops your understanding of chemical equilibria. It also develops your skills in processing and interpreting experimental results. 

We will see that in 2D NMR, the sampling in the second dimension can also be done either way, except that this choice is up to the user and is not hard wired. The alternate ( Bruker-like ) sampling method is called TPPI (time proportional phase incrementation), and the simultaneous ( Varian-like ) method is called States or States-Haberkorn (after the originators of the technique). The consequences for processing and interpretation of the data are the same in the second dimension of 2D spectra as they are in ID NMR. 

The computer(PC)-controlled equipment, especially when using the six-flow system, yields a wealth of results that should be properly processed and interpreted, The time involved in the latter should not be underestimated, and one should not lose oneself in experimentation only. 

Following are a number of case studies examined in the light of the previous discussion. The reader is encouraged to read the original articles to become familiar with the mode of data processing and interpretation presented by... 

General mathematical description of various sicknesses allows approaching from general positions to problems of processing and interpretation of clinico-laboratory and experimental database. Data analysis is realized with the help of mathematical model on the base of theoretical investigations. 

The aim of this chapter is simply to introduce a selection of the most appropriate thermodynamic quantities for the processing and interpretation of adsorption isotherm and calorimetric data, which are obtained by the methods described in Chapter 3. We do not consider here the thermodynamic implications of capillary condensation, since these are dealt with in Chapter 7. Special attention is given to the terminology and the definition of certain key thermodynamic quantities, for example, the difference between corresponding molar integral quantities and differential quantities. 

In any investigation of the energetics of adsorption, a choice has to be made of whether to determine the differential or the corresponding integral molar quantities of adsorption. The decision will affect all aspects of the work including the experimental procedure and the processing and interpretation of the data. 

How can pharmaceutical companies convert the results of this productivity into knowledge Data need to be captured, processed, and interpreted for immediate use, as well as stored and managed to support future product development. The value of data increases when all researchers are able to access, share, and leverage each other s knowledge. Software/databases that can bridge all instruments, data sources, and information centers to meet these challenges head on, is encouraged.

The start of the data acquisition operation of a chromatography data system is to bnild a method file. This tells the data system how to acqnire data and how to process and interpret the results. A method file should control ... 

The project goal is to optimise the operation of the process and interpret data, which will be used for the construction of a Process Development Unit-scale CFBG test facility with gas engine application. 

Our experience with applications of the powder method in diffraction analysis was for the most part, conceptual, and in the remainder of this book, we will discuss key issues that arise during the processing and interpretation of powder diffraction data. Despite the apparent simplicity of onedimensional diffraction patterns, which are observed as series of constructive interference peaks (both resolved and partially or completely overlapped), created by elastically scattered waves and placed on top of a nonlinear background noise, the complexity of their interpretation originates from the complexity of events involved in converting the underlying structure into the experimentally observed data. Thus, nearly every component of data processing in powder diffraction is computationally intense.
