Non-isothermal Processes and Methods of Investigation in the Chemistry and Mechanics of Polymers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss kinetic processes relevant to the chemistry and the mechanics of polymers in which the internal evolution of heat (due to exothermic reactions or to dissipative deformation) exceeds the ability of the system to transfer heat to its surroundings, so that the chemical reaction or the mechanical process occurs under nonisothermal conditions at a rate which is dependent on temperature.

A finite integral transform technique for solving the diffusion-reaction equation with Michaelis-Menten kinetics

TL;DR: In this paper, an approximate analytical technique employing a finite integral transform was developed to solve the reaction diffusion problem with Michaelis-Menten kinetics in a solid of general shape, and a simple infinite series solution for the substrate concentration was obtained as a function of the Thiele modulus, modified Sherwood number, and Michaelis constant.

Direct Methods for The Computation of a Nonsimple Turning Point Corresponding to a Cusp

TL;DR: A method is presented for the numerical computation of a double turning point of a nonlinear operator equation depending on two Parameters, which corresponds to a cusp catastrophe, and the imple-mentation of this method in the case of differential equations and integral equations.

On stability criteria of chemical reaction engineering

TL;DR: In this paper, the analogy between the stirred tank reactor and the catalyst particle is used to introduce some of the recent techniques of stability analysis in as simple a way as possible, and the relationship between various classes of criteria for uniqueness and stability is developed and interpretations of the less obvious criteria are given.

Criticality Criteria for Various Configurations of a Self‐Heating Chemical as Functions of Activation Energy and Temperature of Assembly

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the value of the F•K criticality criterion is a slowly varying function of E/RT0 in the range from infinity to 30 but becomes a sensitive function for values of E /RT0 less than 30.

Uniqueness of the steady state solutions for chemical reactor occurring in a catalyst particle or in a tubular reaction with axial diffusion

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that for any reaction mixture the possibility of multiple steady states can usually be eliminated by use of small catalyst particles, or a dilute mixture, and that in this case one can usually guarantee a unique steady state by using either a small reaction mixture or a short reactor.
