Time-dependent models association

Many solvents do not possess the simple structure that allows their effects to be modeled by the Langevin equation or generalized Langevin equation used earlier to calculate the TS trajectory [58, 111, 112]. Instead, they must be described in atomistic detail if their effects on the effective free energies (i.e., the time-independent properties) and the solvent response (i.e., the nonequilibrium or time-dependent properties) associated with the... 

The research interests of Rod Truax fall under the general heading of symmetry and supersymmetry and their applications to problems of chemical and physical interest. He is especially interested in finding the symmetry associated with time-dependent models and exploiting this symmetry to compute solutions to the quantum mechanical equations of motion.

In addition to deuterated species, some nitrogen bearing species can also be used to study the properties of cold dense cores, notably NH3 and N2H [26] as emission maps show that they are spatially associated with the cold dense cores. Indeed, in time dependent models, these species need a rather long time to reach their steady state abundance which may explain this spatial association. 

Even if we consider a single solvent, e g., water, at a single temperature, say 298K, depends on the solute and in fact on the coordinate of the solute which is under consideration, and we cannot take xF as a constant. Nevertheless, in the absence of a molecular dynamics simulation for the solute motion of interest, XF for polar solvents like water is often approximated by the Debye model. In this model, the dielectric polarization of the solvent relaxes as a single exponential with a relaxation time equal to the rotational (i.e., reorientational) relaxation time of a single molecule, which is called Tp) or the Debye time [32, 347], The Debye time may be associated with the relaxation of the transverse component of the polarization field. However the solvent fluctuations and frictional relaxation occur on a faster scale given by [348,349]... 

It should be noted that a number of experimental observations do not agree with the Bakhshiev-Mazurenko model (1) the time-dependent range of relaxational shifts of spectra is considerably wider than that described by Eq. (2.9), which may be associated with the existence of a distribution of relaxation times 89 94, (2) the bandwidth of the fluorescence spectrum varies significantly during relaxation(93) (3) substantial deviations from exponential... 

The quantum alternative for the description of the vibrational degrees of freedom has been commented by Westlund et al. (85). The comments indicate that, to get a reasonable description of the field-dependent electron spin relaxation caused by the quantum vibrations, one needs to consider the first as well as the second order coupling between the spin and the vibrational modes in the ZFS interaction, and to take into account the lifetime of a vibrational state, Tw, as well as the time constant,T2V, associated with a width of vibrational transitions. A model of nuclear spin relaxation, including the electron spin subsystem coupled to a quantum vibrational bath, has been proposed (7d5). The contributions of the T2V and Tw vibrational relaxation (associated with the linear and the quadratic term in the Taylor expansion of the ZFS tensor, respectively) to the electron spin relaxation was considered. The description of the electron spin dynamics was included in the calculations of the PRE by the SBM approach, as well as in the framework of the general slow-motion theory, with appropriate modifications. The theoretical predictions were compared once again with the experimental PRE values for the Ni(H20)g complex in aqueous solution. This work can be treated as a quantum-mechanical counterpart of the classical approach presented in the paper by Kruk and Kowalewski (161).

Integration of a time-dependent thermal-capillary model for CZ growth (150, 152) also has illuminated the idea of dynamic stability. Derby and Brown (150) first constructed a time-dependent TCM that included the transients associated with conduction in each phase, the evolution of the crystal shape in time, and the decrease in the melt level caused by the conservation of volume. However, the model idealized radiation to be to a uniform ambient. The technique for implicit numerical integration of the transient model was built around the finite-element-Newton method used for the QSSM. Linear and nonlinear stability calculations for the solutions of the QSSM (if the batchwise transient is neglected) showed that the CZ method is dynamically stable small perturbations in the system at fixed operating parameters decayed with time, and changes in the parameters caused the process to evolve to the expected new solutions of the QSSM. The stability of the CZ process has been verified experimentally, at least... 

Following the Morbidelli and Varma criterion, several other methods have been proposed in recent years in order to characterize the highly sensitive behavior of a batch reactor when it reaches the runaway boundaries. Among the most successful approaches, the evidence of a volume expansion in the phase space of the system has been widely exploited to characterize runaway conditions. For example, Strozzi and Zaldivar [9] defined the sensitivity as a function of the sum of the time-dependent Lyapunov exponents of the system and the runaway boundaries as the conditions that maximize or minimize this Lyapunov sensitivity. This has put the basis for the development of a new class of runaway criteria referred to as divergence-based approaches [5,10,18]. These methods usually identify runaway with the occurrence of a positive divergence of the vector field associated with the mathematical model of the reactor.
