A mathematical model of the arterial baroreflex was developed and used to assess the stability of the reflex and its potential role in producing the low-frequency arterial blood pressure oscillations called Mayer waves that are commonly seen in humans and animals in response to decreased central blood volume. The model consists of an arrangement of discrete-time filters derived from published physiological studies, which is reduced to a numerical expression for the baroreflex open-loop frequency response. Model stability was assessed for two states: normal and decreased central blood volume. The state of decreased central blood volume was simulated by decreasing baroreflex parasympathetic heart rate gain and by increasing baroreflex sympathetic vaso/venomotor gains as occurs with the unloading of cardiopulmonary baroreceptors. For the normal state, the feedback system was stable by the Nyquist criterion (gain margin = 0.6), but in the hypovolemic state, the gain margin was small (0.07), and the closed-loop frequency response exhibited a sharp peak (gain of 11) at 0.07 Hz, the same frequency as that observed for arterial pressure fluctuations in a group of healthy standing subjects. These findings support the theory that stresses affecting central blood volume, including upright posture, can reduce the stability of the normally stable arterial baroreflex feedback, leading to resonance and low-frequency blood pressure waves.

Numerical simulations of the evolution of gravity wave spectra of fairly narrow bandwidth have been performed both for two and three dimensions. Simulations using the nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation approximately verify the stability criteria of Alber (1978) in the two-dimensional but not in the three-dimensional case. Using a modified NLS equation (Trulsen et al. 2000) the spectra ‘relax’ towards a quasi-stationary state on a timescale (ε2ω0)−1. In this state the low-frequency face is steepened and the spectral peak is downshifted. The three-dimensional simulations show a power-law behaviour ω−4 on the high-frequency side of the (angularly integrated) spectrum.

Naturally derived biopolymers have been widely used for biomedical applications such as drug carriers, wound dressings, and tissue engineering scaffolds. Chitosan is a typical polysaccharide of great interest due to its biocompatibility and film-formability. Chitosan membranes with controllable porous structures also have significant potential in membrane chromatography. Thus, the processing of membranes with porous nanoscale structures is of great importance, but it is also challenging and this has limited the application of these membranes to date. In this study, with the aid of a carefully selected surfactant, polyethyleneglycol stearate-40, chitosan membranes with a well controlled nanoscale structure were successfully prepared. Additional control over the membrane structure was obtained by exposing the suspension to high intensity, low frequency ultrasound. It was found that the concentration of chitosan/surfactant ratio and the ultrasound exposure conditions affect the structural features of the membranes. The stability of nanopores in the membrane was improved by intensive ultrasonication. Furthermore, the stability of the blended suspensions and the intermolecular interactions between chitosan and the surfactant were investigated using scanning electron microscope and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis, respectively. Hydrogen bonds and possible reaction sites for molecular interactions in the two polymers were also confirmed by FTIR analysis.

Abstract The stability of a horizontal layer of fluid heated from below is examined when, in addition to a steady temperature difference between the horizontal walls of the layer a time-dependent low-frequency per­ turbation is applied to the wall temperatures. An asymptotic solution is obtained which describes the be­ haviour of infinitesimal disturbances to this configuration. Possible stability criteria are analyzed and the results are compared with the known experimental as well as numerical results.

Power system stability improvement by a coordinate Design ofThyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) controller is addressed in this paper.Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique is employed for optimization of the parameterconstrained nonlinear optimization problem implemented in a simulation environment. The proposed controllers are tested on a weakly connected power system. The non-linear simulation results are presented. The eigenvalue analysis and simulation results show the effectiveness and robustness of proposed controllers to improve the stability performance of power system by efficient damping of low frequency oscillations under various disturbances.

Nitrogen-doped activated carbon (N-AC) obtained through the thermal treatment of a mixture of HNO3-pretreated activated carbon (AC) and urea under N2 atmosphere at 600 °C was used as the carrier of Pd catalyst for both liquid-phase hydrodechlorination of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) and gas-phase hydrodechlorination of chloropentafluoroethane (R-115). The effects of nitrogen doping on the dispersion and stability of Pd, atomic ratio of Pd/Pd2+ on the surface of the catalyzer, the catalyst’s hydrodechlorination activity, as well as the stability of N species in two different reaction systems were investigated. Our results suggest that, despite no improvement in the dispersion of Pd, nitrogen doping may significantly raise the atomic ratio of Pd/Pd2+ on the catalyst surface, with a value of 1.2 on Pd/AC but 2.2 on Pd/N-AC. Three types of N species, namely graphitic, pyridinic, and pyrrolic nitrogen, were observed on the surface of Pd/N-AC, and graphitic nitrogen was stable in both liquid-phase hydrodechlorination of 2,4-DCP and gas-phase hydrodechlorination of R-115, with pyridinic and pyrrolic nitrogen being unstable during gas-phase hydrodechlorination of R-115. As a result, the average size of Pd nanocrystals on Pd/N-AC was almost kept unchanged after liquid-phase hydrodechlorination of 2,4-DCP, whereas crystal growth of Pd was clearly observed on Pd/N-AC after gas-phase hydrodechlorination of R-115. The activity test revealed that Pd/N-AC exhibited a much better performance than Pd/AC in liquid-phase hydrodechlorination of 2,4-DCP, probably due to the enhanced stability of Pd exposed to the environment resulting from nitrogen doping as suggested by the higher atomic ratio of Pd/Pd2+ on the catalyst surface. In the gas-phase hydrodechlorination of R-115, however, a more rapid deactivation phenomenon occurred on Pd/N-AC than on Pd/AC despite a higher activity initially observed on Pd/N-AC, hinting that the stability of pyridinic and pyrrolic nitrogen plays an important role in the determination of catalytic performance of Pd/N-AC.

A piecewise frequency control (PFC) strategy is proposed in this paper for coordinating vibration isolation and positioning of supporting systems under complex disturbance conditions, such as direct and external disturbances. This control strategy is applied in an active-passive parallel supporting system, where relative positioning feedback for positioning and absolute velocity feedback for active vibration isolation. The analysis of vibration and deformation transmissibility shows that vibration control increases low-frequency position error while positioning control amplifies high-frequency vibration amplitude. To overcome this contradiction across the whole control bandwidth, a pair of Fractional-Order Filters (FOFs) is adopted in the PFC system, which increases the flexibility in the PFC design by introducing fraction orders. The system stability analysis indicates that the FOFs can provide a better stability margin than the Integral-Order Filters (IOFs), so the control gains are increased to get a better performance on the AVI and positioning. The PFC based on FOFs can suppress the peak amplitude at the natural frequency which cannot be avoided when using the IOFs. The constrained nonlinear multivariable function is formed by the required performance and the stability of the system, then the controller parameters are optimized effectively. Lastly, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by experiments.
