Relative gravity parameter

Figure 9 Illustration of the relative gravity parameter, (a) Occupant A may move to an empty cell with probabilities north 0.174, east 0.445, south 0.379, or west 0.000, or it may also exchange positions with cell B with probability 0.379. (b) The grid configuration after cell A exchanges with cell B. The parameters used are Pb(AB) = 0.8, /(AB) = 0.5, /(AB) = 2.0, absG(A) = 0, and G D(AB) = 1.5.

A series of rules describing the breaking, / B,and joining, J, probabilities must be selected to operate the cellular automata model. The study of Kier was driven by the rules shown in Table 6.6, where Si and S2 are the two solutes, B, the stationary cells, and W, the solvent (water). The boundary cells, E, of the grid are parameterized to be noninteractive with the water and solutes, i.e., / b(WE) = F b(SE) = 1.0 and J(WE) = J(SE) = 0. The information about the gravity parameters is found in Chapter 2. The characteristics of Si, S2, and B relative to each other and to water, W, can be interpreted from the entries in Table 6.6. 

The gravity parameter for each ingredient in the simulation defines the flow rate. The polarity of the solvent, W, is encoded in the relative... 

The relationship is described by a fundamental scientific law (a first principle), formulated as a relative simple mathematical equation with all parameters known. An example is for instance the time, y, a falling stone needs for a given height, x the gravity constant, g, is known and y can be easily calculated by (2x/g)0 5—if special effects like air friction are ignored. 

For random coils, is directly proportional to the contour length. If n is the number of main chain atoms in the chain, = an. The parameter a is relatively insensitive to environment (21), and has been calculated for a number of polymers from strictly intramolecular considerations using the rotational isomeric model (22). The root-mean-square distance of segments from the center of gravity of the coil is called the radius of gyration S. The quantity S3 is an approximate measure of the pervaded volume of the coil. For Gaussian coils,... 

Sulfide and pH measures were not always made on the same gravity cores used for Fe and Mn pore-water analyses, but the general values of these parameters are relatively predictable deep in the sediment at each station based on other cores. These are listed in Appendix B of Part I along with pore-water analyses. Sulfide levels are highest at FOAM (Gold-haber et al., 1977) and lowest at DEEP where they are below the detection limit of a sulfide electrode, pS s 16, in the gravity-core samples (but not in the box cores).
