In this paper possibilities of a stabilization of large amplitude fluctuations in an intracavity-doubled solid-state laser are studied. The modification of the cross-saturation coefficient by the effect of spatial hole-burning is taken into account. The stabilization of the laser radiation by an increase of the number of modes, as proposed in [James et al., 1990b; Magni et al., 1993], is analyzed. It is found that when the cross-saturation coefficient is modulated by the spatial hole-burning the stabilization is not always possible. We propose a new way of obtaining a stable steady-state configuration based on an increase of the strength of nonlinearity, which leads to a strong cancellation of modes, so that during the evolution all modes, but for a single one, are canceled. Such a steady-state solution is found to be stable with respect to small perturbations.

The variation of activated sludge floc size with the mixing intensity of a mechanically stirred respirometer, expressed in terms of the mean energy dissipation rate, was characterized using a photometric dispersion analyzer. The floc size decreased rapidly when the energy dissipation rate was increased from 1.33 × 10-3 to 2.68 × 10-3 W/kg. Experiments were performed to investigate the effect of floc size on the oxygen saturation coefficient measured under the condition of acetate oxidation. The respirometric data were interpreted by considering only the kinetics of biochemical reactions. The variation of the oxygen saturation coefficient with mixing intensity was found to correlate with the variation of floc size with mixing intensity. The oxygen saturation coefficient was found to decrease from 0.23 to 0.08 mg/L when the mean energy dissipation rate was increased from 1.33 × 10-3 to 2.68 × 10-3 W/kg. The dependence of the oxygen saturation coefficient on floc size or mixing intensity suggests the presence of mass transfer resistances in large flocs.
