On the Relation Between Reaction Dynamics and Thermodynamics in Closed Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
A reactive system’s slow dynamic behavior is approximated well by its evolution on manifolds of dimension lower than the dimensionality of the full composition space. This work addresses the relation between the isothermal reactive systems’ slow dynamics, described by the actual slow invariant manifolds, and notions from thermodynamics. In addition to mathematical proof, a realistic reactive system is utilized to show that other than identifying the actual equilibrium point, traditional thermodynamic potentials provide no guidance in determining a system’s actual slow invariant manifold. A comparison between several published thermodynamics-based manifolds and the actual slow invariant manifolds is presented.

Definition of General Operator Space and The s-gap Metric for Measuring Robust Stability of Control Systems with Nonlinear Dynamics
In the recent decades, metrics have been introduced as mathematical tools to determine the robust stability of the closed loop control systems. However, the metrics drawback is their limited applications in the closed loop control systems with nonlinear dynamics. As a solution in the literature, applying the metric theories to the linearized models is suggested. In this paper, we show that usin...
متن کاملAdaptive Distributed Consensus Control for a Class of Heterogeneous and Uncertain Nonlinear Multi-Agent Systems
This paper has been devoted to the design of a distributed consensus control for a class of uncertain nonlinear multi-agent systems in the strict-feedback form. The communication between the agents has been described by a directed graph. Radial-basis function neural networks have been used for the approximation of the uncertain and heterogeneous dynamics of the followers as well as the effect o...
متن کاملOscillations and multiscale dynamics in a closed chemical reaction system: second law of thermodynamics and temporal complexity.
We investigate the oscillatory reaction dynamics in a closed isothermal chemical system: the reversible Lotka-Volterra model. The second law of thermodynamics dictates that the system ultimately reaches an equilibrium. Quasistationary oscillations are analyzed while the free energy of the system serves as a global Lyapunov function of the dissipative dynamics. A natural distinction between regi...
متن کاملGlobal Stabilization of Attitude Dynamics: SDRE-based Control Laws
The State-Dependant Riccati Equation method has been frequently used to design suboptimal controllers applied to nonlinear dynamic systems. Different methods for local stability analysis of SDRE controlled systems of order greater than two such as the attitude dynamics of a general rigid body have been extended in literature; however, it is still difficult to show global stability properties of...
متن کاملA New Near Optimal High Gain Controller For The Non-Minimum Phase Affine Nonlinear Systems
In this paper, a new analytical method to find a near-optimal high gain controller for the non-minimum phase affine nonlinear systems is introduced. This controller is derived based on the closed form solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation associated with the cheap control problem. This methodology employs an algebraic equation with parametric coefficients for the systems with s...
