Non-Linear Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems

Non-Linear Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems

Non-Linear Differential Equations and Dynamical Systems is the second book within Ordinary Differential Equations with Applications to Trajectories and Vibrations Six-volume Set. As a set they are the fourth volume in the series Mathematics and Physics Applied to Science and Technology. This second book consists of two chapters (chapters 3 and 4 of the set). The first chapter considers non-linear differential equations of first order including variable coefficients. A first-order differential equation is equivalent to a first-order differential in two variables. The differentials of order higher than the first and with more than two variables are also considered. The applications include the representation of vector fields by potentials. The second chapter in the book starts with linear oscillators with coefficients varying with time including parametric resonance. It proceeds to non-linear oscillators including non-linear resonance amplitude jumps and hysteresis. The non-linear restoring and friction forces also apply to electromechanical dynamos. These are examples of dynamical systems with bifurcations that may lead to chaotic motions. Presents general first-order differential equations including non-linear like the Ricatti equationDiscusses differentials of the first or higher order in two or more variablesIncludes discretization of differential equations as finite difference equationsDescribes parametric resonance of linear time dependent oscillators specified by the Mathieu functions and other methodsExamines non-linear oscillations and damping of dynamical systems including bifurcations and chaotic motions

Visual and Non-Visual Effects of Light Working Environment and Well-Being

Visual and Non-Visual Effects of Light Working Environment and Well-Being

The introduction of artificial lighting extends the time of wakefulness after dark and enables work at night thus disturbing the human circadian rhythm. The understanding of the physiological mechanisms of visual and non-visual systems may be important for the development and use of proper light infrastructure and light interventions for different workplace settings especially for shift work conditions. Visual and Non-Visual Effects of Light: Working Environment and Well-Being presents the impact of lighting in the working environment on human health well-being and visual performance. The physiological explanation of the visual and non-visual effects of light on humans which discusses the biological bases of image and non-image forming vision at the cellular level may be of particular interest to any professional in the field of medicine physiology and biology. It is one of the intentions of this book to put forward some recommendations and examples of lighting design which take into account both the visual and non-visual effects of light on humans. These may be of particular interest to any professional in the field of lighting occupational safety and health and interior design. What effects on health can a light ‘overdose’ or light deficiency have? What is bad light? The authors of the monograph provide answers to these questions. Just as for a physicist the dual nature of light comprises an electromagnetic wave and a photon the duality of light for a physician comprises visual and non-visual effects. -Prof Jacek Przybylski Medical University of Warsaw This is a unique publication in the field of lighting technology. The authors have skillfully combined both the technical and biomedical aspects involved which is unprecedented in the literature available. As a result an important study has been created for many professional groups with a significant impact on the assessment of risks associated with LED sources.

Electrolytes Supramolecular Interactions and Non-Equilibrium Phenomena in Concentrated Solutions

Electrolytes Supramolecular Interactions and Non-Equilibrium Phenomena in Concentrated Solutions

Electrolyte solutions play a key role in traditional chemical industry processes as well as other sciences such as hydrometallurgy geochemistry and crystal chemistry. Knowledge of electrolyte solutions is also key in oil and gas exploration and production as well as many other environmental engineering endeavors. Until recently a gap existed between the electrolyte solution theory dedicated to diluted solutions and the theory practice and technology involving concentrated solutions. Electrolytes: Supramolecular Interactions and Non-Equilibrium Phenomena in Concentrated Solutions addresses concentrated electrolyte solutions and the theory of structure formation super and supramolecular interactions and other physical processes with these solutions—now feasible due to new precision measurement techniques and experimental data that have become available. The first part of the book covers the electrolyte solution in its stationary state—electrostatic and various ion-dipole dipole-dipole and mutual repulsion interactions. The second part covers the electrolyte solution in its nonstationary status in the case of forced movement between two plates—electrical conductivity viscosity and diffusion. This theoretical framework allows for the determination of activity coefficients of concentrated electrolyte solutions which play a key role in many aspects of electrochemistry and for developing novel advanced processes in inorganic chemical plants. | Electrolytes Supramolecular Interactions and Non-Equilibrium Phenomena in Concentrated Solutions

Novel Bioremediation Processes for Treatment of Seleniferous Soils and Sediment

Novel Bioremediation Processes for Treatment of Seleniferous Soils and Sediment

The aim of this Ph. D. was to develop a technology for the remediation of seleniferous soils/sediments and to explore microbial reduction of selenium oxyanions under different respiration conditions and bioreactor configurations. Seleniferous soil collected from the wheat-grown agricultural land in Punjab (India) was characterized and its soil washing was optimized by varying parameters where addition of oxidizing agents showed a maximum selenium removal efficiency. Aquatic plants Lemna minor and Egeria densa were used to study phytoremediation of the selenium-rich soil leachate containing oxidizing agents. Additionally migration of the soluble selenium fraction from the upper to the lower layers and its subsequent reduction and accumulation in the lower layers of the soil column was observed during soil flushing. Furthermore the soil leachate containing selenium oxyanions obtained from soil washing was treated in a UASB reactor by varying the organic feed. Ex situ bioremediation of selenium oxyanions was studied under variable conditions. An aerobic bacterium (Delftia lacustris) capable of transforming selenate and selenite to elemental selenium was isolated and characterized. Anaerobic bioreduction of selenate coupled to methane oxidation was investigated in serum bottles and a biotrickling filter using marine sediment as inoculum. Finally the effect of contamination of other chalcogen oxyanions (tellurium) on selenium bioreduction was studied in a continuous system (UASB reactor). | Novel Bioremediation Processes for Treatment of Seleniferous Soils and Sediment
