The evaluation of the mathematical model parameters of a non-linear object with a transport delay is considered in this paper. A temperature controlled stage based on a Peltier element is an identification object in the paper. Several input signal implementations are applied to the input of the identification object. The least squares method is applied for the calculation of the non-linear differential equitation parameters which describe the identification object. The least squares method is used due to its simplicity and the possibility of identification non-linear objects. The parameters values obtained in the process of identification are provided. The plots of temperature changes in the temperature control system with a controller designed based on the mathematical model of the control object obtained as a result of identification are shown. It is found that the mathematical model obtained in the process of identification may be applied to design controllers for non-linear systems, in particular for a temperature stage based on a Peltier element, and for self-tuning controllers. However, the least square method proposed in the paper cannot estimate the transport delay time. Therefore it is required to evaluate the time delay by temperature transient processes. Dynamic object identification is applied when it is required to obtain a mathematical model structure and evaluate the parameters by an input and output control object signal. Also, identification is applied for auto tuning of controllers. A mathematical model of a control object is required to design the controller which is used to provide the required accuracy and stability of control systems. Peltier elements are applied to design low-power and small- size temperature stage . Hot benches based on a Peltier element can provide the desired temperature above and below ambient temperature.

SUMMARYRecords of seven common-cold outbreaks on the island of Tristan da Cunha are compared with the corresponding time courses given by the mathematical model of Kermack & McKendrick (1927) and with an alternative model that directly involves a constant average duration of individual infection. Using computer simulation techniques the latter model is shown to be preferred and is then closely matched to the field data to obtain values for the model parameters. Consideration is then given to the intensity of epidemics predicted by the model and to the distribution of the actual epidemics relative to the theoretical epidemic threshold.

This paper justifies the efficiency of the biogas collection and utilization at the MSW (municipal solid waste) landfill in Almaty with the installation of several modern biogas plants. The optimal mode of processes occurring in a biogas plant is determined by computer generated simulations. Mathematical model parameters were identified to describe biochemical processes occurring in a biogas plant. Two approaches are used to resolve the mathematical model: the finite-difference method for solving the system of differential equations and simulation modeling by using the Any Logic package. A program is written in the algorithmic language C ++. Numerous calculations were carried out, the results of which are presented in curves and their qualitative picture is consistent with the ongoing processes. The created computer program allows to make a preliminary forecast of anaerobic fermentation occurring in the bioreactor depending on volume of the substrate, methane microorganisms and temperature conditions.

From the view of engineering, based on expatiating the features of systems biology, the paper discusses the workflows and the research emphasis of systems biology. It also explains how to model and analyze the dynamic process of signal transmitting network for a biological system by an example. Based on the complexity and uncertainty of the mathematical model, the right methods are chosen to realize the effective estimation of state variables and model parameters for the biochemical pathway.

In order to meet the demands of practical, convenient and quick charge requirements, a mathematical model of a certain type of vehicle starting lead-acid battery is established. Using the method of circuit analysis, the model parameters are identified by the known test data. In addition, battery charge model is simulated in each charge stage using the intelligent three-stage charge method, simulation waveform and test waveform fit very well, absolute errors between them reach to 10-6. Simulation results show that the mathematical model and its analysis method is proper for the charge characteristics of vehicle starting lead-acid battery. This has a good guidance to design intelligent charger and extend the battery life.

Abstract The mathematical model of physicochemical iron removal from groundwater was developed. It consists of three interrelated compartments. The results of the experimental research provide information in support of the first two compartments of the mathematical model. The dependencies for the concentrations of the adsorbed ferrous iron and deposited hydroxide concentrations are obtained as a result of the exact solution of the system of the mass transfer equations for two forms of iron in relation to the inlet surface of the bed. An analysis of the experimental data of the dynamics of the deposit accumulation in a small bed sample was made, using a special application that allowed to select the values of the kinetic coefficients and other model parameters based on these dependencies. We evaluated the autocatalytic effect on the dynamics of iron ferrous and ferric forms. The verification of the mathematical model was carried out involving the experimental data obtained under laboratory and industrial conditions.

Reproducible pattern is a key characteristic of organisms. Many developmental patterns are known that it is orchestrated by diffusion of the factors. Herein, we reported a novel patterning that seems to be controlled by diffusion factors. Although it looks like the prickles randomly emerge on the stem of rose, we deciphered patterns for the position of prickles with statistical data and proposed a mathematical model to explain the process via which the pattern emerged. By changing the model parameters, we reproduce another pattern on other plant species. This finding indicates that the patterns between many species are organized by similar systems. Moreover, although the pattern of organisms is often linked to its function, we consider the spatial pattern of prickles may have a function to play the role of prickles effectively. Further studies will clarify the role of prickles and reveal the entity of diffusive factors.

Mathematical modeling of catalytic processes is necessary for the complete and accurate description, as well as for controlling the quality and physicochemical studied of catalysts. In the paper, theoretical issues of industrial catalysis are discussed. The work is devoted to theoretical graph analysis of informativity of kinetic parameters of the model of a complex chemical reaction. The aim is the development and automation of algorithm for determining basis of nonlinear parameter functions in solving inverse problems of chemical kinetics in order to define the number and form of independent combinations of rate constants of elementary stages. A program package for analysis of informativity of kinetic parameters of the mathematical model of a complex catalytic reaction is developed and described. The obtained functional relations between the kinetic parameters can be useful for experimentalists in physicochemical interpretation and analysis of mechanisms of chemical reactions. In other words, the proposed method allows independent combinations of kinetic constants to be distinguished that results in shortening the number of the model parameters and, as a consequence, enhance the accuracy of the mathematical model. The mechanism of hydrogen oxidation over a platinum catalyst is given as an example of the use of the software.

OBJECTIVE: Sensitivity analysis was applied to a mathematical model describing malaria transmission relating global warming and local socioeconomic conditions. METHODS: A previous compartment model was proposed to describe the overall transmission of malaria. This model was built up on several parameters and the prevalence of malaria in a community was characterized by the values assigned to them. To assess the control efforts, the model parameters can vary on broad intervals. RESULTS: By performing the sensitivity analysis on equilibrium points, which represent the level of malaria infection in a community, the different possible scenarios are obtained when the parameters are changed. CONCLUSIONS: Depending on malaria risk, the efforts to control its transmission can be guided by a subset of parameters used in the mathematical model.
