BACON.5 is a program that discovers empirical laws. The program represents information at varying levels of description, with higher levels summarizing the levels below them. The system applies a small set of data-driven heuristics to detect regularities in numeric and nominal data. These heuristics note constancies and trends, leading BACONS to formulate hypotheses, define theoretical terms, a...

The effects of greenhouse gases (GHG) on the growth of global warming, and increase of GHG and air pollutant emissions for energy production have forced the need of energy recovery which is normally wasted in industrial plant. The present research work focused on the GHG and air pollutant emissions reduction employing pressure waste energy recovery. Pressure break-down via Joule-Thomson valve i...

In this paper, a simple and general hierarchical control framework is proposed and validated through the interconnection of the Joule-Thompson and the Brayton cycle stages of a cryogenic refrigerator. The proposed framework enables to handle the case of destabilizing interconnections through state and/or control signals (which is the case of the cryogenic refrigerator example). Moreover, it off...

steady hydromagnetic couette flow of class-ii of a viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid through a porous medium in a rotating system taking hall current into account is investigated. heat transfer characteristics of the fluid flow are considered taking viscous and joule dissipations into account. it is noticed that there exists flow separation at the moving plate in the sec...
