In this work, the effect of carbon dioxide partial pressure on the calcination kinetics of high purity zinc carbonate hydroxide has been studied. Non-isothermal analysis has been performed on samples at different CO2 partial pressures by TGA and DTA. It has been found that the calcination behaviour of this material corresponds to the shrinking core model and the reaction mechanism is phase boun...

We propose the concept of partial Benders decomposition, based on the idea of retaining a subset of scenario subproblems in the master formulation and develop a theory to support it that illustrates how it may be applied to any stochastic integer program with continuous recourse. Such programs are used to model many practical applications such as the one considered in this paper, network design...

In the present study, a comprehensive and systematic strategy was described to evaluate the performance of several three-way calibration methods on a bio-analytical problem. Parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC), alternating trilinear decomposition (ATLD), self-weighted alternating trilinear decomposition (SWATLD), alternating penalty trilinear decomposition (APTLD) and unfolded partial least squa...

Partial Cylindrical Algebraic Decomposition I: The Lifting Phase�

Information theory is often utilized to capture both linear as well as nonlinear relationships between any two parts of a dynamical complex system. Recently, an extension to classical information theory called partial information decomposition has been developed, which allows one to partition the information that two subsystems have about a third one into unique, redundant and synergistic contr...
