چکیده

We present a simple model that can be used to account for the rheological behaviour observed in recent experiments on micellar gels. The model combines attachment–detachment kinetics with stretching due to shear, and shows well-defined jammed and flowing states. The large-deviation function (LDF) for the coarse-grained velocity becomes increasingly non-quadratic as the applied force F is increased, in a range near the yield threshold. The power fluctuations are found to obey a steady-state fluctuation relation (FR) at small F . However, the FR is violated when F is near the transition from the flowing to the jammed state although the LDF still exists; the antisymmetric part of the LDF is found to be nonlinear in its argument. Our approach suggests that large fluctuations and motion in a direction opposite to an imposed force are likely to occur in a wider class of systems near yielding.

A New Thermodynamic Approach for Protein Partitioning in Reverse Micellar Solution

Reverse micellar systems are nanofluids with unique properties that make them attractive in high selectivity separation processes, especially for biological compounds. Understanding the phase behavior and thermodynamic properties of these nanosystems is the first step in process design. Separation of components by these nanosystems is performed upon contact of aqueous and reverse micellar phase...

Modeling The Capacity Factor of Analytes in Micellar Electrokinetic Chromatography Using Computational Descriptors

       A multiple linear regression model is proposed to calculate capacity factor of  analytes using structural features computed using HyperChem software. The  chemical descriptors of analytes were computed using HyperChem software and  regressed against the experimental capacity factors of analytes collected from the  literature. The absolute average percentage deviation (AARD) and individua...

FUZZY LINEAR REGRESSION BASED ON LEAST ABSOLUTES DEVIATIONS

This study is an investigation of fuzzy linear regression model for crisp/fuzzy input and fuzzy output data. A least absolutes deviations approach to construct such a model is developed by introducing and applying a new metric on the space of fuzzy numbers. The proposed approach, which can deal with both symmetric and non-symmetric fuzzy observations, is compared with several existing models by...

Spectrophotometric Determination of Acidity Constants of Thiamine in Water, Water-Triton X-100 Micellar Media Solutions

In this work the acidity constants of Thiamine in water and water-Triton X-100 micelle media solutions, at 25 °C, have been determined spectrophotometrically. To evaluate the pH- absorbance data, a resolution based on the combination of soft-and hard-modeling is applied. The acidity constants of all related equilibria are estimated using the whole spectral fitting of the collected data to a...
