Nonnegativity, Reducibility, and Semistability of Mass Action Kinetics
نویسنده
چکیده
Mass action kinetics are used throughout the chemical and chemical engineering literature to describe the dynamics of systems of chemical reaction laws. They are also a special form of compartmental systems that involve mass balance relations [l]. Aside from their obvious importance in chemical engineering applications, mass action kinetics have numerous analytical properties that are of inherent interest from a dynamical systems perspective.

Positivity and Conservation Properties of Some Integration Schemes for Mass Action Kinetics
The numerical schemes approximating chemical reactions according to the mass action law should reproduce at least two properties of the corresponding physical system: mass conservation and nonnegativity of the concentrations. This paper analyzes the equations of mass action kinetics providing a proof of the existence, uniqueness, and positivity of the solution under mild hypotheses on the react...
متن کاملKinetics of Propane Hydrate Formation in Agitated Reactor: A Mass Transfer Approach
Understanding the kinetics of gas hydrate formation is essential to model and predict the hydrate formation (or dissociation) process. In the present paper, we investigated the formation of pure propane gas hydrate as a former gas. In this regard, several experiments were conducted to measure the rate of hydrate formation under various pressures (410 to 510 kPa) and temperatures (274 K to 277 K...
متن کاملClustered model reduction of positive directed networks
This paper proposes a clustered model reduction method for semistable positive linear systems evolving over directed networks. In this method, we construct a set of clusters, i.e., disjoint sets of state variables, based on a notion of cluster reducibility, defined as the uncontrollability of local states. By aggregating the reducible clusters with aggregation coefficients associated with the F...
متن کاملNontangency-Based Lyapunov Tests for Convergence and Stability in Systems Having a Continuum of Equilibria
This paper focuses on the stability analysis of systems having a continuum of equilibria. Two notions that are of particular relevance to such systems are convergence and semistability. Convergence is the property whereby every solution converges to a limit point that may depend on the initial condition. Semistability is the additional requirement that all solutions converge to limit points tha...
متن کاملIn vitro Assessment of the Effect of Plant Extracts on Digestibility, Estimated Energy Value, Microbial Mass and Rumen Fermentation Kinetics
Three ethanol extracts, chamomile (CHA), clove (CLO) and tarragon (TAR), were tested at five doses (0, 250, 500, 750 and 1000 µL/L) to determine their effects on in vitro organic matter digestibility (IVOMD), metabolizable energy (ME), net energy of lactation (NEL), short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), microbial mass (MM) and rumen fermentation kinetics of a 40:60 forage: concentrate diet using in v...
