Multistep and continuous production of core–shell InP/ZnS semiconductor nanocrystals in a high-temperature miniature stirred-tank reactor cascade.

This paper presents control of the nonlinear system represented by a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) using MATLAB’s Graphical User Interface (GUI). This simulation provides computation for various values of the input variables, which made this program universal for the wide range of the users without theoretical knowledge about modeling, simulation, and control.

What is the fate of the mammalian Golgi apparatus during mitosis? This seemingly simple question has become part of the wider debate concerning the nature of the Golgi apparatus and the mechanism of secretory protein transport. At the heart of this debate is the question of whether the Golgi is an organelle with its own separate identity, or a complex transport intermediate containing secretory...

This report discusses control of dissolved oxygen in a bioreactor where the oxygen supply is manipulated using the stirrer speed. In batch and fed-batch cultivations the operating conditions change significantly which may cause tuning problems. Analysis using a linearized process model shows that the process dynamics is mainly affected by changes in the volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient KL...

We investigated a nonlinear advection-diffusion-reaction equation for a passive scalar field. The purpose is to understand how the compressibility can affect the front dynamics and the bulk burning rate. We study two classes of flows: periodic shear flow and cellular flow, analyzing the system by varying the extent of compressibility and the reaction rate. We find that the bulk burning rate v(f...
