TLDR
In this article, the authors proposed a method to predict the distribution of residence-times in large systems by using distribution-functions for residencetimes, which can be used to calculate the etficiencies of reactors and blenders.

Matrix inequality‐based observer design for a class of distributed transport‐reaction systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of designing a globally exponentially convergent observer for a class of (linear in transport and nonlinear in generation) semi-linear parabolic distributed systems is addressed within a matrix inequality framework, yielding sufficient convergence conditions with physical meaning and the weight of a Lyapunov functional as design degree of freedom.

Axial transport and residence time of MSW in rotary kilns: Part II. Theoretical and optimal analyses

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel particulate trajectory model (PTM) is developed to predict axial transport and dispersion of municipal solid wastes (MSW), based on the vector analysis on particle's gravity-induced axial displacement in a single excursion.

Axial dispersion in single-phase flow in pulsed packed columns

TL;DR: In this paper, a three-parameter model based on the Taylor-Aris dispersion equation for tube flow has been developed, which has been verified experimentally, describes the relation between the axial dispersion coefficient and the interstitial and pulsation velocities.

Quantifying signal dispersion in a hybrid ice core melting system.

TL;DR: A microcontroller-based ice core melting and data logging system allowing simultaneous depth coregistration of a continuous flow analysis (CFA) system and a discrete sample analysis system, both supplied from the same melted ice core section is described.

Generation of Ground‐Water Age Distributions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a preexisting discrete-state compartment (DSC) model of a portion of the Tucson Basin alluvial aquifer as an example.

The Definition and Measurement of Some Characteristics of Mixtures

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the important features of such mixtures can be expressed by two statistically defined quantities, the scale and the intensity of segregation, and methods of measuring these are suggested.
