Infrared-chemiluminescence spectra of CO 2 molecules formed by steady-state CO oxidation on Pd (111), Pd (110), Pd (100) and polycrystalline- Pd surfaces have been measured to get information on the surface reaction dynamics. In all cases, the product CO 2 was vibrationally and rotationally excited. The CO 2 molecules desorbed from Pd (100) and Pd (111), which have flat surfaces, were vibrationally more excited than those from Pd (110) (stepped surface) and polycrystalline Pd . These results show that the dynamics of CO oxidation on Pd surfaces are structure-sensitive, i.e. the structure of the activated CO 2 complex depends on the surface structures of the reaction sites. Furthermore, the activities of steady-state CO oxidation as a function of surface temperature were different among these Pd surfaces, which indicates that the CO oxidation on Pd is also structure-sensitive in the kinetics.

Strontium isotopes in precipitation, soil and runoff water can be used to establish a ratio of wet plus dry deposited Sr to Sr released by weathering. This ratio is especially enhanced in areas with old acid Proterozoic rocks (0.6-2.5 Ga) and Archean rocks (>2.5 Ga). Since Sr and Ca behave in an analogous way in the coniferous forest ecosystem the results for Sr can be used for the determination of Ca. If the deposition of calcium can be calculated reasonably accurately the weathering rate can also be estimated. Five catchments have been investigated using this approach. Three of them seem to be close to a steady state, wherein the losses and gains of calcium to the system are equal. In the two southern-most catchments there seems to be an ongoing loss of exchangeable calcium. The loss by runoff occurs with sulphate being the dominant anion. Weathering rates of 1.5 to 4.8 kg Ca/ha year have been estimated.

A simple, approximate but practical graphical method is proposed for estimating the storage coefficient independently from the transmissivity value, provided that quasi-steady state flow data are available from a pumping test. In the past, quasi-steady state flow distance-drawdown data have been used for the determination of transmissivity only. The method is applicable to confined and leaky aquifers. The application of the method has been performed for various aquifer test data available in the groundwater literature. The results are within the practical limits of approximation compared with the unsteady state flow solutions.

A steady-statemathematical model of an activated sludgeprocess with a secondary settler was developed. With a limited number of training data samples obtained from the simulation at steady state, a feedforward neural network was established which exhibits an excellent capability for the operational prediction and determination.

The direct determination of the steady state response for linear time invariant (LTI) systems modeled by multibond graphs is presented. Firstly, a multiport junction structure of a multibond graph in an integral causality assignment (MBGI) to get the state space of the system is introduced. By assigning a derivative causality to the multiport storage elements, the multibond graph in a derivative causality (MBGD) is proposed. Based on this MBGD, a theorem to obtain the steady state response is presented. Two case studies to get the steady state of the state variables are applied. Both cases are modeled by multibond graphs, and the symbolic determination of the steady state is obtained. The simulation results using the 20-SIM software are numerically verified.

Abstract Two methods for the determination of resistance to the outflow of cerebrospinal fluid, the bolus injection technique and the constant rate steady state infusion technique, were compared. Thirty-two patients with a variety of intracranial diseases (usually communicating hydrocephalus) were studied. There was a high degree of correlation between the resistance values obtained with the two methods, but values based on the bolus injection technique were systematically and statistically significantly lower than those obtained with the constant rate infusion test. From a practical point of view. both methods were found to be applicable in a clinical setting.
