Transcendentals

The equations are transcendental for the general case, and their solution has been discussed in several contexts [32-35]. One important issue is the treatment of the boundary condition at the surface as d is changed. Traditionally, the constant surface potential condition is used where po is constant however, it is equally plausible that ag is constant due to the behavior of charged sites on the surface. 

The exponential function with base b can also be defined as the inverse of the logarithmic function. The most common exponential function in applications corresponds to choosing Z the transcendental number e.

Eqs. (77 and (78) are transcendental and we cannot obtain the solutions in a closed form. Nevertheless, they are convenient for obtaining some exact results. 

Due to the inherent uncertainty of the Langmuir model and difficulties in solving the transcendental equation (41), probably the most accurate treatment in the near-equilibrium cases is a numerical or graphical integration of the expression... 

In estimating the value of Ed by means of the transcendental equations (28), the circumstance utilized is that the variation of em for a given change in Tm is much less than the variation of exp(em) (31). Until now, only particular solutions have been available for the hyperbolic and linear heating schedules and for the first-order and second-order desorptions. They can be found for example in the fundamental papers by Redhead (31) and Carter (32) or in the review by Contour and Proud homme (106), and therefore will not be repeated here. Recently, a universal procedure for the... 

The other global method in common use is generally called the method of Qraejfe in western Europe and in the United States, and the method of Lobachevskii in the USSR. The first to state the principle was Dandelin, but Graeffe devised the algorithm, simple enough in itself, that is normally used. The method is widely known, and is described in many places. Hence, it will not be described here. But it is not widely known that the method is applicable, with rather trivial modifications, to solving transcendental equations. 

Since X + In X is a transcendental function, Eq. (2-67) cannot be solved for [A], Two methods are usually used. The method of initial rates is the more common one, since it converts the differential equation into an algebraic one. Values of v(, determined as a function of [A]o, are fit to the equation given for v. This application to enzyme-catalyzed reactions will be taken up in Chapter 4. The other method regularly used relies on numerical integration these techniques are given in Chapter 5. 

Differentiation and setting dbout/dT = 0 gives a transcendental equation in Toptimai that cannot be solved in closed form. The optimal temperature must be found numerically.

The prefactor of the exponential in (C.7) is less easily obtained. To get it one has to solve the transcendental equation de(h)/h = 0 for / and insert this into Numerically one obtains that this factor is close to 1/2. 

One of the drawbacks of the first iteration, however, is that computation of energy quantities, e.g. orbital and total energies, requires to evaluate the integrals occurring in Eq. 3 on the basis of the ( )il )(p)- Unfortunately, the transcendental functions in terms of which the (]>il Hp) are expressed at the end of the first iteration do not lead to closed form expressions for these integrals and a numerical procedure is therefore needed. This constitutes a barrier to carry out further iterations to improve the orbitals by approaching the HE limit. A compromise has been proposed between a fully numerical scheme and the simple first iteration approach based on the fact that at the end of each iteration the < )j(k)(p) s entail the main qualitative characteristics of the exact solution and most...

Between the two roots of Eq. (5-140), one must take into consideration the higher value in order to assure the positivity of (z — L0). Substituting this value of qM into Eq. (5-138) yields a transcendental equation its solution gives the value of z corresponding to the burnout point.

From equation 12.7.20 it is evident that W must be at least as large as hC9 and this fact provides a useful starting point for solving these transcendental equations. We begin by assuming that W = 35 BTU/(hr-ft2-°R). From equation 12.7.23,...

This is a transcendental equation, which is not easily solved by ordinary methods. Nowadays, however, computers make the solution of such equations by successive approximations easy. In this case, again using EXCEL , we find that the value of T that makes the left-hand side of equation (42-50) become zero, which thus gives the value corresponding to the transmittance corresponding to minimum relative error, is 0.32994, rather than the previously accepted value of 0.368... 

Equation 48-119 is a much simpler equation than most of the ones we have had to deal with before, including equation 42-50 (which is the corresponding equation for the constant-detector-noise case [2]) nevertheless, it is still a transcendental equation and is best solved by successive approximations.
