Streszczenie:

The upper part of the Earth—the lithospheric layer,∼100 km thick, is rigid. Segments of this spherical shell–lithospheric plates are drifting over a ductile asthenosphere. On the continents, the lithosphere includes the Earth's crust,∼40 km thick, which is underlain by peridotitic rocks of the mantle. In most areas, at depths∼20–40 km the continental crust is composed of basalts with density∼2900kg m−3. At temperature and pressure typical for this depth, basalts are metastable and should transform into another assemblage of minerals which corresponds to garnet granulites and eclogites with higher densities 3300–3600 kgm−3. The rate of this transformation is extremely low in dry rocks, and the associated contraction of basalts evolves during the time≥108a. To restore the Archimede's equilibrium, the crust subsides with a formation of sedimentary basins, up to 10–15 km deep.Volumes of hot mantle with a water-containing fluid emerge sometimes from a deep mantle to the base of the lithosphere. Fluids infiltrate into the crust through the mantle part of the lithosphere. They catalyze the reaction in the lower crust which results in rock contraction with a formation of deep water basins at the surface during∼106a. The major hydrocarbon basins of the world were formed in this way. Infiltration of fluids strongly reduces the viscosity of the lithosphere, which is evidenced by narrow-wavelength deformations of this layer. At times of softening of the mantle part of the lithosphere, it becomes convectively replaced by a hotter and lighter asthenosphere. This process has resulted in the formation of many mountain ranges and high plateaus during the last several millions of years. Softening of the whole lithospheric layer which is rigid under normal conditions allows its strong compressive and tensile deformations. At the epochs of compression, a large portion of dense eclogites that were formed from basalts in the lower crust sink deeply into the mantle. In some cases they carry down lighter blocks of granites and sedimentary rocks of the upper crust which delaminate from eclogitic blocks and emerge back to the crust. Such blocks of upper crustal rocks include diamonds and other minerals which were formed at a depth of 100–150 km.

Streszczenie:

The paper deals with the recursive identification of time-varying non-linear dynamic systems using three-block cascade models with non-linear static, linear dynamic and non-linear dynamic blocks. These models are appropriate for systems with both actuator and sensor non-linearities. Multiple application of a decomposition technique provides special expressions for the corresponding non-linear model description that are linear in parameters. A modified recursive least-squares-based algorithm is used for estimation of the time-varying input polynomial and output backlash parameters. Simulation studies show the feasibility of proposed approach to estimate the model parameters and track their changes.

An approximate analysis is developed for non-linear (finite) plane and axisymmetric strain deformations of rubber blocks bonded to rigid end-plates. The analysis is partly based on the works of Klingbeil and Sheild(1) and Gent and Lindley(2). The solutions obtained are explicit and are comparable with published experimental results and expected behaviours. The solutions to the corresponding infinitesimal deformation are exactly the same as those obtained by Gent and Lindley(2) and Shariff(5) (when v = 0.5).

Streszczenie:

Traditional onefold data-driven methods for fault detection in complex process industrial systems with high-dimensional, linear, nonlinear, Gaussian, and non-Gaussian coexistence often have less than satisfactory monitoring performance because only a single distribution of process variables is considered. To address this problem, a hybrid fault detection model based on PCA-KPCA-ICA-KICA-BI (Bayesian inference) is proposed, taking into account the advantages of principal component analysis (PCA), kernel principal component analysis (KPCA), independent component analysis (ICA), and kernel independent component analysis (KICA) in terms of dimensionality reduction and feature extraction. Foremost, this paper proposed a nonlinear evaluation method and divided the feature variables into Gaussian linear blocks, Gaussian nonlinear blocks, non-Gaussian linear blocks, and non-Gaussian nonlinear blocks by using the Jarque–Bera (JB) test and nonlinear discrimination method. Each division was monitored by the PCA-KPCA-ICA-KICA model, and finally the Bayesian fusion strategy proposed in this study is used to synthesize the detection results for each block. The hybrid model helps in evaluating variable features and bettering detection performance. Ultimately, the superiority of this hybrid model was verified through the Tennessee Eastman (TE) process and the Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) process, and the fault monitoring results showed an average accuracy of 85.91% for this hybrid model.

Streszczenie:

L'instabilité des blocs situés à la surface des excavations souterraines est un problème courant dans les milieux rocheux fracturés. Comme les méthodes exactes prenant en compte tous les blocs et leurs interactions sont très lourdes, l'approche des Blocs Isolés est souvent adoptée. Elle consiste à étudier chaque bloc en considérant qu'il est rigide et que le reste de la masse rocheuse est rigide et fixe. Néanmoins, aucune des méthodes existantes adoptant cette approche ne prend en compte de façon rigoureuse les contraintes initiales et le comportement des joints. Dans cette thèse, on développe une nouvelle méthode qui apporte des améliorations importantes aux méthodes conventionnelles de Blocs Isolés. Connaissant les contraintes initiales, on rend compte du processus d'excavation par le déchargement de la face libre du bloc. Les efforts sur les faces du bloc en contact avec la roche sont alors modifiés en respectant l'équilibre des forces et des moments, la loi de comportement des joints et le mouvement de corps solide du bloc. On aboutit ainsi à un système linéaire où les seules inconnues sont les vecteurs translation et rotation du bloc. Deux modèles sont proposés : le premier considère un comportement linéaire élastique des joints et, par conséquent, la stabilité est évaluée a posteriori. Le deuxième modèle, plus pertinent, considère un comportement hyperbolique des joints dans la direction normale et élastoplastique dans la direction tangentielle avec prise en compte de la dilatance. La méthode numérique adoptée pour la résolution du problème non linéaire est une intégration explicite dans le temps cinématique avec des pas de déchargement constants. La technique d'intégration surfacique utilisée permet d'étudier toute forme géométrique de bloc. La méthode proposée a été validée puis comparée aux méthodes conventionnelles. Des études paramétriques ont montré l'influence des contraintes initiales et des propriétés mécaniques des joints sur la stabilité. Le soutènement a été aussi intégré dans le code développé. Finalement, la nouvelle méthode a été appliquée pour l'étude d'un assemblage de blocs autour d'une excavation souterraine et comparée à un modèle prenant en compte tous les blocs via la méthode des Éléments Distincts. Elle a été aussi utilisée pour restituer un cas réel de chute de blocs.

The forecast of natural flows to hydroelectric plant reservoirs is an essential input to the planning and programming of the SIN´s operation. Various computer models are used to determine these forecasts, including physical models, statistical models and the ones developed with the RNA´s techniques. Currently, the ONS performs daily forecasts of natural flows to the UHE Tucuruí based on the univariate stochastic model named PREVIVAZH, developed by Electric Energy Research Center - Eletrobras CEPEL. Throughout the last decade, several papers have shown evolution in the application of neural networks methodology in many areas, specially in the prediction of flows on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. The goal of this dissertation is to present and calibrate a model of natural flow forecast using the RNA´s methodology, more specifically the NSRBN (Non-Linear Sigmoidal Regression Blocks Networks) (VALENCA; LUDERMIR, 2001), on a time lapse from 1 to 12 days forward to the Tucuruí Hydroelectric Plant, considering the hydrometric stations data located upstream from it s reservoir. In addition, a comparative analysis of results found throughout the calibrated neural network and the ones released by ONS is performed. The results show the advantage of the methodology of artificial neural networks on autoregressive models. The Mean Absolute Percentage Error - MAPE values obtained were, on average, 48 % lower than those released by the ONS.
A previsão de vazões naturais aos reservatórios das usinas hidrelétricas é insumo fundamental para o planejamento e operação do SIN. Diversos modelos são utilizados na determinação dessas previsões, entre os quais podem ser citados os modelos físicos, os estatísticos e aqueles baseados na técnica de Redes Neurais Artificiais. Atualmente, o ONS realiza as previsões diárias de vazões naturais para a Usina Hidrelétrica Tucuruí com base no modelo estocástico univariado denominado PREVIVAZH, desenvolvido pelo CEPEL. Ao longo da última década, muitos trabalhos têm mostrado a evolução da aplicação da metodologia de Redes Neurais Artificiais em diversas áreas e em particular na previsão de vazões naturais, para intervalos de tempo diários, semanais e mensais. O objetivo deste trabalho foi calibrar e avaliar um modelo de previsão de vazões naturais, utilizando a metodologia de RNA, mais especificamente as redes construtivas do tipo NSRBN(Non-Linear Sigmoidal Regression Blocks Networks) (VALENCA; LUDERMIR, 2001), no horizonte de 1 até 12 dias à frente, para a Usina Hidrelétrica Tucuruí, considerando as informações advindas de postos hidrométricos localizados à montante do seu reservatório. Adicionalmente, foi realizada uma análise comparativa dos resultados encontrados pela rede neural calibrada e aqueles obtidos e divulgados pelo ONS. Os resultados obtidos mostram a vantagem da metodologia de redes neurais artificiais sobre os modelos auto-regressivos. Os valores do Erro Percentual Médio Absoluto - MAPE foram, em média, 48% inferiores aos divulgados pelo ONS.

Streszczenie:

Cette thèse porte sur l’analyse de graphes dynamiques, définis en temps discret ou continu. Nous introduisons une nouvelle extension dynamique du modèle a blocs stochastiques (SBM), appelée dSBM, qui utilise des processus de Poisson non homogènes pour modéliser les interactions parmi les paires de nœuds d’un graphe dynamique. Les fonctions d’intensité des processus ne dépendent que des classes des nœuds comme dans SBM. De plus, ces fonctions d’intensité ont des propriétés de régularité sur des intervalles temporels qui sont à estimer, et à l’intérieur desquels les processus de Poisson redeviennent homogènes. Un récent algorithme d’estimation pour SBM, qui repose sur la maximisation d’un critère exact (ICL exacte) est ici adopté pour estimer les paramètres de dSBM et sélectionner simultanément le modèle optimal. Ensuite, un algorithme exact pour la détection de rupture dans les séries temporelles, la méthode «pruned exact linear time» (PELT), est étendu pour faire de la détection de rupture dans des données de graphe dynamique selon le modèle dSBM. Enfin, le modèle dSBM est étendu ultérieurement pour faire de l’analyse de réseau textuel dynamique. Les réseaux sociaux sont un exemple de réseaux textuels: les acteurs s’échangent des documents (posts, tweets, etc.) dont le contenu textuel peut être utilisé pour faire de la classification et détecter la structure temporelle du graphe dynamique. Le modèle que nous introduisons est appelé «dynamic stochastic topic block model» (dSTBM)
This thesis focuses on the statistical analysis of dynamic graphs, both defined in discrete or continuous time. We introduce a new extension of the stochastic block model (SBM) for dynamic graphs. The proposed approach, called dSBM, adopts non homogeneous Poisson processes to model the interaction times between pairs of nodes in dynamic graphs, either in discrete or continuous time. The intensity functions of the processes only depend on the node clusters, in a block modelling perspective. Moreover, all the intensity functions share some regularity properties on hidden time intervals that need to be estimated. A recent estimation algorithm for SBM, based on the greedy maximization of an exact criterion (exact ICL) is adopted for inference and model selection in dSBM. Moreover, an exact algorithm for change point detection in time series, the "pruned exact linear time" (PELT) method is extended to deal with dynamic graph data modelled via dSBM. The approach we propose can be used for change point analysis in graph data. Finally, a further extension of dSBM is developed to analyse dynamic net- works with textual edges (like social networks, for instance). In this context, the graph edges are associated with documents exchanged between the corresponding vertices. The textual content of the documents can provide additional information about the dynamic graph topological structure. The new model we propose is called "dynamic stochastic topic block model" (dSTBM).Graphs are mathematical structures very suitable to model interactions between objects or actors of interest. Several real networks such as communication networks, financial transaction networks, mobile telephone networks and social networks (Facebook, Linkedin, etc.) can be modelled via graphs. When observing a network, the time variable comes into play in two different ways: we can study the time dates at which the interactions occur and/or the interaction time spans. This thesis only focuses on the first time dimension and each interaction is assumed to be instantaneous, for simplicity. Hence, the network evolution is given by the interaction time dates only. In this framework, graphs can be used in two different ways to model networks. Discrete time […] Continuous time […]. In this thesis both these perspectives are adopted, alternatively. We consider new unsupervised methods to cluster the vertices of a graph into groups of homogeneous connection profiles. In this manuscript, the node groups are assumed to be time invariant to avoid possible identifiability issues. Moreover, the approaches that we propose aim to detect structural changes in the way the node clusters interact with each other. The building block of this thesis is the stochastic block model (SBM), a probabilistic approach initially used in social sciences. The standard SBM assumes that the nodes of a graph belong to hidden (disjoint) clusters and that the probability of observing an edge between two nodes only depends on their clusters. Since no further assumption is made on the connection probabilities, SBM is a very flexible model able to detect different network topologies (hubs, stars, communities, etc.)

Streszczenie:

One of the facets of the mobile or wireless environment is that errors quite often occur in bursts. Thus, strong codes are required to provide protection against such errors. This in turn motivates the employment of decoding algorithms which are simple to implement, yet are still able to attempt to take the dependence or memory of the channel model into account in order to give optimal decoding estimates. Furthermore, such algorithms should be able to be applied for a variety of channel models and signalling alphabets. The research presented within this thesis describes a number of algorithms which can be used with linear block codes. Given the received word, these algorithms determine the symbol which was most likely transmitted, on a symbol-by-symbol basis. Due to their relative simplicity, a collection of algorithms for memoryless channels is reported first. This is done to establish the general style and principles of the overall collection. The concept of matrix diagonalisation may or may not be applied, resulting in two different types of procedure. Ultimately, it is shown that the choice between them should be motivated by whether storage space or computational complexity has the higher priority. As with all other procedures explained herein, the derivation is first performed for a binary signalling alphabet and then extended to fields of prime order. These procedures form the paradigm for algorithms used in conjunction with finite state channel models, where errors generally occur in bursts. In such cases, the necessary information is stored in matrices rather than as scalars. Finally, by analogy with the weight polynomials of a code and its dual as characterised by the MacWilliams identities, new procedures are developed for particular types of Gilbert-Elliott channel models. Here, the calculations are derived from three parameters which profile the occurrence of errors in those models. The decoding is then carried out using polynomial evaluation rather than matrix multiplication. Complementing this theory are several examples detailing the steps required to perform the decoding, as well as a collection of simulation results demonstrating the practical value of these algorithms.

Streszczenie:

Spectral properties of linear operators and operator functions can be used to analyze models in nature. When dispersion and damping are taken into account, the dependence of the spectral parameter is in general non-linear and the operators are not selfadjoint. In this thesis non-selfadjoint operator functions are studied and several methods for obtaining properties of unbounded non-selfadjoint operator functions are presented. Equivalence is used to characterize operator functions since two equivalent operators share many significant characteristics such as the spectrum and closeness. Methods of linearization and other types of equivalences are presented for a class of unbounded operator matrix functions. To study properties of the spectrum for non-selfadjoint operator functions, the numerical range is a powerful tool. The thesis introduces an optimal enclosure of the numerical range of a class of unbounded operator functions. The new enclosure can be computed explicitly, and it is investigated in detail. Many properties of the numerical range such as the number of components can be deduced from the enclosure. Furthermore, it is utilized to prove the existence of an infinite number of eigenvalues accumulating to specific points in the complex plane. Among the results are proofs of accumulation of eigenvalues to the singularities of a class of unbounded rational operator functions. The enclosure of the numerical range is also used to find optimal and computable estimates of the norm of resolvent and a corresponding enclosure of the ε-pseudospectrum.

Lors des dernières décennies, la Séparation Aveugle de Sources (BSS) est devenue un outil de premier plan pour le traitement de données multi-valuées. L’objectif de ce doctorat est cependant d’étudier les cas grande échelle, pour lesquels la plupart des algorithmes classiques obtiennent des performances dégradées. Ce document s’articule en quatre parties, traitant chacune un aspect du problème: i) l’introduction d’algorithmes robustes de BSS parcimonieuse ne nécessitant qu’un seul lancement (malgré un choix d’hyper-paramètres délicat) et fortement étayés mathématiquement; ii) la proposition d’une méthode permettant de maintenir une haute qualité de séparation malgré un nombre de sources important: iii) la modification d’un algorithme classique de BSS parcimonieuse pour l’application sur des données de grandes tailles; et iv) une extension au problème de BSS parcimonieuse non-linéaire. Les méthodes proposées ont été amplement testées, tant sur données simulées que réalistes, pour démontrer leur qualité. Des interprétations détaillées des résultats sont proposées
During the last decades, Blind Source Separation (BSS) has become a key analysis tool to study multi-valued data. The objective of this thesis is however to focus on large-scale settings, for which most classical algorithms fail. More specifically, it is subdivided into four sub-problems taking their roots around the large-scale sparse BSS issue: i) introduce a mathematically sound robust sparse BSS algorithm which does not require any relaunch (despite a difficult hyper-parameter choice); ii) introduce a method being able to maintain high quality separations even when a large-number of sources needs to be estimated; iii) make a classical sparse BSS algorithm scalable to large-scale datasets; and iv) an extension to the non-linear sparse BSS problem. The methods we propose are extensively tested on both simulated and realistic experiments to demonstrate their quality. In-depth interpretations of the results are proposed

Streszczenie:

This thesis is divided into three main parts. In the first, we discuss that, although permutation tests can provide exact control of false positives under the reasonable assumption of exchangeability, there are common examples in which global exchangeability does not hold, such as in experiments with repeated measurements or tests in which subjects are related to each other. To allow permutation inference in such cases, we propose an extension of the well known concept of exchangeability blocks, allowing these to be nested in a hierarchical, multi-level definition. This definition allows permutations that retain the original joint distribution unaltered, thus preserving exchangeability. The null hypothesis is tested using only a subset of all otherwise possible permutations. We do not need to explicitly model the degree of dependence between observations; rather the use of such permutation scheme leaves any dependence intact. The strategy is compatible with heteroscedasticity and can be used with permutations, sign flippings, or both combined. In the second part, we exploit properties of test statistics to obtain accelerations irrespective of generic software or hardware improvements. We compare six different approaches using synthetic and real data, assessing the methods in terms of their error rates, power, agreement with a reference result, and the risk of taking a different decision regarding the rejection of the null hypotheses (known as the resampling risk). In the third part, we investigate and compare the different methods for assessment of cortical volume and area from magnetic resonance images using surface-based methods. Using data from young adults born with very low birth weight and coetaneous controls, we show that instead of volume, the permutation-based non-parametric combination (NPC) of thickness and area is a more sensitive option for studying joint effects on these two quantities, giving equal weight to variation in both, and allowing a better characterisation of biological processes that can affect brain morphology.

Streszczenie:

‘Emergence’ looks at the relations between building blocks, generated systems, and the phenomenon of emergence. To understand emergent phenomena, it is necessary to describe the emergence of a system’s behaviour from the non-additive interactions of its building blocks. Emergence occurs when the generators for a generated system combine to yield objects having properties not obtained by summing properties of the individual generators. Co-evolution, often mediated by tags, is one of the major mechanisms for generating non-linear interactions between CAS agents. Tags serve as building blocks but can also be constructed from other building blocks. Tag recombination provides a general mechanism for emergence, because signal-processing lies at the heart of all complex systems.

In particular, it considers coverings branched over transversally intersecting divisors. Applying this to linear arrangements in the complex projective plane, the chapter first blows up the projective plane at non-transverse intersection points, that is, at those points of the arrangement where more than two lines intersect. These points are called singular points of the arrangement. This gives rise to a complex surface and transversely intersecting divisors that contain the proper transforms of the original lines. The chapter also introduces the divisor class group, their intersection numbers, and the canonical divisor class. Finally, it describes the Chern numbers of a complex surface in order to define the proportionality deviation of a complex surface and to study its behavior with respect to finite covers.

Streszczenie:

The atmospheric circulation in the mid-latitudes of both hemispheres is usually dominated by westerly winds and by planetary-scale and shorter-scale synoptic waves, moving mostly from west to east. A remarkable and frequent exception to this “usual” behavior is atmospheric blocking. Blocking occurs when the usual zonal flow is hindered by the establishment of a large-amplitude, quasi-stationary, high-pressure meridional circulation structure which “blocks” the flow of the westerlies and the progression of the atmospheric waves and disturbances embedded in them. Such blocking structures can have lifetimes varying from a few days to several weeks in the most extreme cases. Their presence can strongly affect the weather of large portions of the mid-latitudes, leading to the establishment of anomalous meteorological conditions. These can take the form of strong precipitation episodes or persistent anticyclonic regimes, leading in turn to floods, extreme cold spells, heat waves, or short-lived droughts. Even air quality can be strongly influenced by the establishment of atmospheric blocking, with episodes of high concentrations of low-level ozone in summer and of particulate matter and other air pollutants in winter, particularly in highly populated urban areas.Atmospheric blocking has the tendency to occur more often in winter and in certain longitudinal quadrants, notably the Euro-Atlantic and the Pacific sectors of the Northern Hemisphere. In the Southern Hemisphere, blocking episodes are generally less frequent, and the longitudinal localization is less pronounced than in the Northern Hemisphere.Blocking has aroused the interest of atmospheric scientists since the middle of the last century, with the pioneering observational works of Berggren, Bolin, Rossby, and Rex, and has become the subject of innumerable observational and theoretical studies. The purpose of such studies was originally to find a commonly accepted structural and phenomenological definition of atmospheric blocking. The investigations went on to study blocking climatology in terms of the geographical distribution of its frequency of occurrence and the associated seasonal and inter-annual variability. Well into the second half of the 20th century, a large number of theoretical dynamic works on blocking formation and maintenance started appearing in the literature. Such theoretical studies explored a wide range of possible dynamic mechanisms, including large-amplitude planetary-scale wave dynamics, including Rossby wave breaking, multiple equilibria circulation regimes, large-scale forcing of anticyclones by synoptic-scale eddies, finite-amplitude non-linear instability theory, and influence of sea surface temperature anomalies, to name but a few. However, to date no unique theoretical model of atmospheric blocking has been formulated that can account for all of its observational characteristics.When numerical, global short- and medium-range weather predictions started being produced operationally, and with the establishment, in the late 1970s and early 1980s, of the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, it quickly became of relevance to assess the capability of numerical models to predict blocking with the correct space-time characteristics (e.g., location, time of onset, life span, and decay). Early studies showed that models had difficulties in correctly representing blocking as well as in connection with their large systematic (mean) errors.Despite enormous improvements in the ability of numerical models to represent atmospheric dynamics, blocking remains a challenge for global weather prediction and climate simulation models. Such modeling deficiencies have negative consequences not only for our ability to represent the observed climate but also for the possibility of producing high-quality seasonal-to-decadal predictions. For such predictions, representing the correct space-time statistics of blocking occurrence is, especially for certain geographical areas, extremely important.

In this chapter, through some illustrative examples, the applicability of the Discrete Finite Element Method (DFEM) to analysis of unreinforced masonry structures such as rock pillars, open rock slopes, underground openings, tunnels, fault propagations, and fault-structure interactions is examined and discussed. In the numerical study, the behavior of contacts and blocks is assumed to be elasto-plastic or elastic. The Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion, representing material behavior of contacts, is implemented in the developed codes for DFEM used in the analysis. The secant stiffness method with the updated Lagrangian scheme is employed to deal with non-linear behavior. The constant strain triangular element with two degrees of freedoms at each node, formed by properly joining the corners and contact nodes of an individual block, is adopted for finite element meshing of the blocks. The DFEM provides an efficient and promising tool for designing, analyzing, and studying the behavior of unreinforced masonry structures.

Abstract In this paper, a non conservative interpolation boundary condition, for the non-matching mesh blocks, was developed and validated for the micro compressor casing treatment. The conservative variables were interpolated in the halo layers of non-matching mesh interface using Finite Element Method (FEM) type linear interpolation shape functions, instead of using overset grids. Using this new boundary condition, the effect of casing treatment on stall margin and compressor performance is investigated for a mixed flow type micro-compressor. The computed compressor performance map for the casing treatment case is compared with the experimental results and shows good agreement except in the region close to stall. With the application of the casing treatment, improvement in the stall margin is observed without the loss of efficiency over the operating range.

An object-oriented program for the dynamic simulation of gas turbines has been developed using Matlab-Simulink® utilities. The advantages given by the object-oriented program are the flexibility and the user-friendly interface. The components of the gas turbine are modeled as blocks that can be assembled like an engineering drawing in which the connections between two elements represent either a mechanical power transfer or a fluid transfer. In a fluid-type connection the data regarding the fluid composition, the thermodynamic properties and the fluid velocity are simultaneously transferred. A library of gas turbine components has been developed: each component appears as a block that can be placed into the drawing by means of click-and-drag operations. In order to obtain an accurate description of the physical processes characterizing the gas turbine, the components are described by a set of non-linear algebraic equations and ordinary differential equations. Each component block is created using the graphical programming tools of Simulink, following a block diagram approach. Specific blocks have been created for the evaluation of the thermodinamic properties of the working fluids. The paper provides the description of the mathematical model adopted for the simulation and the some examples of the Matlab-Simulink formulation adopted for implementing the model. The accuracy of the program has been verified considering test cases for which experimental data are available in the public literature. The computational times, tested for the transients of a single-shaft and a double-shaft gas turbine, resulted to be very short, even making use of a personal computer.

A two dimensional simulation is made to analyse the mixing enhancement due to surface roughness and geometric modulation in a sufficiently long rectangular nano-channel filled with electrolyte solutions of different concentrations. Geometric modulation is made by mounting non-conducting rectangular blocks on the bottom wall of the channel. An overpotential patch is placed on the upper wall of each block to create surface heterogeneity. Based on a finite volume staggered grid approach, the flow characteristics and mixing efficiency are discussed by a complete numerical solution of coupled nonlinear set of PDEs involving Nernst-Planck equation for ion distribution, Navier-Stokes equation for velocity components and Maxwells equation for potential distribution. A linear pressure drop is observed above the overpotential region which creates a recirculating zone. Mixing efficiency is improved with increasing vortex strength which is enhanced by decreasing EDL (electric double layer) thickness and increasing overpotential patch strength.

This paper presents a dynamic simulation of a single shaft heavy-duty gas turbine plant, suitable for gas-steam combined cycles. The plant is operated at maximum gas turbine exhaust temperature, using variable inlet guide vanes (VIGV) as control. In the first section, a non-linear lumped parameter mathematical model is described: it includes a control system representative of those controls normally utilised by industry today. Some dynamic responses of a controlled plant taken as an example are presented. In the second section, a different control system is proposed, operating with no interaction between the speed and exhaust temperature loops. To this aim, a linear model in the frequency domain of the uncontrolled plant is obtained, starting from the non-linear model in the time domain. Assuming that each one of manipulated variables influences only one of the controlled variables (VIGV only the exhaust gas temperature and the fuel mass rate only the load), the transfer functions of two new blocks have been obtained. To compensate for the system non linearity, the calculations are repeated for different load levels. The new control feature can offer advantages in the time response of the regulated plant, especially in the operating range where the airflow can be modulated by the VIGV at constant fuel firing temperature.

Streszczenie:

The general objective of this study was to develop rationally designed mimetic antagonists (and agonists) of the PK/PBAN Np class with enhanced bio-stability and bioavailability as prototypes for effective and environmentally friendly pest insect management agents. The PK/PBAN family is a multifunctional group of Nps that mediates key functions in insects (sex pheromone biosynthesis, cuticular melanization, myotropic activity, diapause and pupal development) and is, therefore, of high scientific and applied interest. The objectives of the current study were: (i) to identify an antagonist biophores (ii) to develop an arsenal of amphiphilic topically active PK/PBAN antagonists with an array of different time-release profiles based on the previously developed prototype analog; (iii) to develop rationally designed non-peptide SMLs based on the antagonist biophore determined in (i) and evaluate them in cloned receptor microplate binding assays and by pheromonotropic, melanotropic and pupariation in vivo assays. (iv) to clone PK/PBAN receptors (PK/PBAN-Rs) for further understanding of receptor-ligand interactions; (v) to develop microplate binding assays for screening the above SMLs. In the course of the granting period A series of amphiphilic PK/PBAN analogs based on a linear lead antagonist from the previous BARD grant was synthesized that incorporated a diverse array of hydrophobic groups (HR-Suc-A[dF]PRLa). Others were synthesized via the attachment of polyethylene glycol (PEG) polymers. A hydrophobic, biostablePK/PBAN/DH analog DH-2Abf-K prevented the onset of the protective state of diapause in H. zea pupae [EC50=7 pmol/larva] following injection into the preceding larval stage. It effectively induces the crop pest to commit a form of ‘ecological suicide’. Evaluation of a set of amphiphilic PK analogs with a diverse array of hydrophobic groups of the formula HR-Suc-FTPRLa led to the identification of analog T-63 (HR=Decyl) that increased the extent of diapause termination by a factor of 70% when applied topically to newly emerged pupae. Another biostablePK analog PK-Oic-1 featured anti-feedant and aphicidal properties that matched the potency of some commercial aphicides. Native PK showed no significant activity. The aphicidal effects were blocked by a new PEGylated PK antagonist analog PK-dF-PEG4, suggesting that the activity is mediated by a PK/PBAN receptor and therefore indicative of a novel and selective mode-of-action. Using a novel transPro mimetic motif (dihydroimidazole; ‘Jones’) developed in previous BARD-sponsored work, the first antagonist for the diapause hormone (DH), DH-Jo, was developed and shown to block over 50% of H. zea pupal diapause termination activity of native DH. This novel antagonist development strategy may be applicable to other invertebrate and vertebrate hormones that feature a transPro in the active core. The research identifies a critical component of the antagonist biophore for this PK/PBAN receptor subtype, i.e. a trans-oriented Pro. Additional work led to the molecular cloning and functional characterization of the DH receptor from H. zea, allowing for the discovery of three other DH antagonist analogs: Drosophila ETH, a β-AA analog, and a dF analog. The receptor experiments identified an agonist (DH-2Abf-dA) with a maximal response greater than native DH. ‘Deconvolution’ of a rationally-designed nonpeptide heterocyclic combinatorial library with a cyclic bis-guanidino (BG) scaffold led to discovery of several members that elicited activity in a pupariation acceleration assay, and one that also showed activity in an H. zea diapause termination assay, eliciting a maximal response of 90%. Molecular cloning and functional characterization of a CAP2b antidiuretic receptor from the kissing bug (R. prolixus) as well as the first CAP2b and PK receptors from a tick was also achieved. Notably, the PK/PBAN-like receptor from the cattle fever tick is unique among known PK/PBAN and CAP2b receptors in that it can interact with both ligand types, providing further evidence for an evolutionary relationship between these two NP families. In the course of the granting period we also managed to clone the PK/PBAN-R of H. peltigera, to express it and the S. littoralis-R Sf-9 cells and to evaluate their interaction with a variety of PK/PBAN ligands. In addition, three functional microplate assays in a HTS format have been developed: a cell-membrane competitive ligand binding assay; a Ca flux assay and a whole cell cAMP ELISA. The Ca flux assay has been used for receptor characterization due to its extremely high sensitivity. Computer homology studies were carried out to predict both receptor’s SAR and based on this analysis 8 mutants have been generated. The bioavailability of small linear antagonistic peptides has been evaluated and was found to be highly effective as sex pheromone biosynthesis inhibitors. The activity of 11 new amphiphilic analogs has also been evaluated. Unfortunately, due to a problem with the Heliothis moth colony we were unable to select those with pheromonotropic antagonistic activity and further check their bioavailability. Six peptides exhibited some melanotropic antagonistic activity but due to the low inhibitory effect the peptides were not further tested for bioavailability in S. littoralis larvae. Despite the fact that no new antagonistic peptides were discovered in the course of this granting period the results contribute to a better understanding of the interaction of the PK/PBAN family of Nps with their receptors, provided several HT assays for screening of libraries of various origin for presence of PK/PBAN-Ragonists and antagonists and provided important practical information for the further design of new, peptide-based insecticide prototypes aimed at the disruption of key neuroendocrine physiological functions in pest insects.
