The measurement of kinetic parameters in the pyrolysis polyolefins requires use a lumped model for predicting product distribution wax, oil and gas yields. A non-isothermal method was established, which sample is heated tube reactor to desired temperature at constant rate rise. This avoided error present heating up stage inherent any practical isothermal reaction proceeds significant extent bef...

Electrical analogy (Lumped method) is an easy way to model human cardiovascular system. In this paper Lumped method is used for simulating a complete model. It describes a 36-vessel model and cardiac system of human body with details that could show hydrodynamic parameters of cardiovascular system. Also this paper includes modeling of pulmonary, atrium, left and right ventricles with their equi...

Nowadays, physical models of head used in pedestrian head impact standard tests are not accurate enough to represent the human head behavior and to assess the head injury risk in case of impact in a realistic way. In order to remove this technological barrier, the Strasbourg University Finite Elements Head Model (SUFEHM) is used in conjunction with a lumped model of the impact point at bonnet l...

The lumped constant of the deoxyglucose method was determined by the steady-state, model-independent method in the brain of normal conscious rats with arterial plasma glucose concentrations varying from normoglycemia (i.e., 8 mM) to hyperglycemia (i.e., 31 mM). The lumped constant for brain was found to decrease very gradually with increasing arterial plasma glucose concentration from a value o...

Abstract A simple method is proposed to model the open cracked beam structures. In this method, crack is modeled as a beam element. Hence cracked beam can be assumed to be a beam with stepped cross sections, and problem of determining natural frequency and mode shape of cracked beam, can be solved as determining these characteristics for a beam with different length and cross section. With this...

The free vibration characteristics of a dual split torque transmission are studied in this work. A transversetorsional coupling dynamic model is developed using lumped parameter method. The natural frequencies and mode shapes are calculated by solving the eigenvalue problem of the differential equations of motion. The vibration modes of the system are classified into translational mode and rota...

Anderson and Bowser [1986], hereafter referred to as AB, presented a very interesting paper on the study of the role of groundwater in delaying lake acidification i Wisconsin. By considering the input/output of hydrogen ion with respect o the aquifer, including nonconservative transport through the use of the retardation factor, the effect of a delay in the arrival of acid to the lake is demons...

This paper demonstrates the feasibility of modeling any dynamical system using a set of fractional order differential equations, including distributed and lumped systems. Fractional order differentiators and integrators are the basic elements of these equations representing the real model of the dynamical system, which in turn implies the necessity of using fractional order controllers instead ...
