the understanding of the dynamic behavior of distillation columns has received considerable attention because distillation is one of the most widely used unit operations in chemical process industries. this paper reports a dynamic simulation study of the possible distillation columns sequences of dew pointing unit in the second phase of south pars gas refinery. in this unit, three columns are u...

in this study, an extended stress-based forming limit diagram (fld) for prediction of necking based on the marciniak and kucznski (m-k) model is represented and applied in tube hydroforming. the bulge forming of a straight tube is simulated by finite element method and verified with published experimental data. this adaptive simulation technique is based on the ability to detect the onset and g...

laguerre function has many advantages such as good approximation capability for different systems, low computational complexity and the facility of on-line parameter identification. therefore, it is widely adopted for complex industrial process control. in this work, laguerre function based adaptive model predictive control algorithm (ampc) was implemented to control continuous stirred tank rea...

this paper proposes a hybrid method to find cumulative distribution function (cdf) of completion time of gert-type networks (gtn) which have no loop and have only exclusive-or nodes. proposed method is cre-ated by combining an analytical transformation with gaussian quadrature formula. also the combined crude monte carlo simulation and combined conditional monte carlo simulation are developed a...

In studying through simulation, choosing an appropriate tool/language would be a difficult task because many of them are available. On the other hand, few research works focus on evaluation of simulation tools/languages and their comparison. This paper makes a couple of evaluations and ranks more than fifty simulation tools that are currently available. The first evaluation and ranking is in th...

Simulation physics, as a mode of instructional applications, in physics teaching has been widely used. So instructional design of simulation physics experiments is particularly important problems. This paper focuses on the simulation experiments design in teaching and learning

The common use of UIC Pneumatic braking plant in long freight trains may involve time delays in the application of the braking forces along the convoy. This variable braking action along the train may cause heavy longitudinal efforts that could lead to wagons damaging and even cause train derailment. Simulations of these phenomena are very important both for safety and economic reasons since lo...

a novel computational fluid dynamics and molecular kinetic theory (cfd-mk) method was developed to simulate the impingement of a nanodroplet onto a solid surface. a numerical solution of the navier–stokes equation using a volume-of-fluid (vof) technique was used to model nanodroplet deformation. dynamic contact angle during droplet impact was obtained by molecular kinetic theory. this dynamic c...

many health studies were interested to find the association between multiple predictors with a dependent variable. the popular method to analyze these studies was multiple regressions that assumed the predictors were independent. while in practice some predictors may depend on each other and they could not be presented in a regression model simultaneously, as a result the appropriate models suc...

in this report, we describe a procedure for in-silico design of a novel haloalkane dehalogenase protein that exhibits luciferase property which can be potentially used in biosensor applications. from a pdb blast search, the selected haloalkane dehalogenase (pdb code: 1ede) had a close structural homology with a lucifearse (pdb code: 2psj chain a) sharing an identity of 33%. initially, the amino...
