Abstract:
To reduce energy-related emissions, we must create chemicals from carbon dioxide with renewable energy, instead of from petroleum. Designing such a process needs computer models that can describe all the chemical reactions that are happening, including those driven by electrochemistry. There may be thousands of such reactions, so we must build a tool to find them automatically. Our reaction mechanism generator for electrocatalysis will create detailed kinetic models for many electrochemical processes, but for this initial project we are targeting the reduction of carbon dioxide to produce propanol, a useful hydrocarbon product. The kinetic models will be used to simulate an electrochemical reactor, then analyzed both technically and economically to determine which catalyst materials and reactor designs are best. This will allow new catalyst materials to be discovered using powerful computers, instead of using very time-consuming and expensive experiments. Building on the state-of-the-art open-source Reaction Mechanism Generator (RMG) software [1,2], we are creating the first automated mechanism generator for electrochemical reactions on a catalyst. Supplied with a feedstock, catalyst, and conditions, it will propose a detailed kinetic model comprising hundreds of intermediate species and reactions. Reactor simulations will predict product yields as a function of feed, concentrations, and potential, allowing conditions to be optimized and the trade-off between conversion and selectivity to be investigated. In turn this could inform a detailed technoeconomic analysis, enabling catalyst materials to be screened in silico on an economic basis. Meanwhile sensitivity analysis of the simulations will select estimated parameters for refinement with DFT calculations. We must first extend RMG to allow charged species, and implement proton coupled electron transfer (PCET) reactions. We will at first use the computational hydrogen electrode model to determine the Gibbs energy of a species (and hence reaction) as a function of chemical potential. Potential-dependent kinetics will be estimated using a charge transfer coefficient model. In preliminary work with a framework like this we have constructed a reaction mechanism for carbon dioxide reduction on Cu(111) with 37 species and 292 reactions (23 of them electrochemical) [3]. The model discovered many key electrochemical pathways to reduce CO2 to experimentally observed products such as methane, methanol, formic acid, ethylene, and ethanol.

Abstract:
The successful adaptation and optimization of existing designs play an important role in the design of high speed machinery. Adaptation and extension of existing design principles to achieve some new functional or performance requirement is imperative for the development of the next generation of machines. In addition to this, continual improvement and optimization of existing designs are necessary to sustain a product's commercial success. Where complex mechanical systems are considered such design activities usually require the application of advanced simulation packages or intelligent CAD systems. The widespread utilization of such techniques, for all but the largest enterprises, is severely frustrated by the considerable level of resources required in order to retain a single, proficient user. These resources include extensive initial training as well as ongoing courses, the purchase of commercial licenses and more often than not, the considerable time and effort necessary for the creation and development of complex computer based models. As a consequence, many SMEs demand reliable, efficient and economical methods to generate simulation models for analysis and investigation. One method for delivering this is to provide an approach for the automatic creation of simulation models from data describing an existing design. Such an approach can reduce costs and resources as well as expedite the model building process. This paper presents a method for automatically generating a representative CAD model of a mechanical system. It supports the transformation of digital images into kinematic models for simulation and analysis. The method integrates motion analysis techniques, a parametric description of mechanical systems and a constraint-based CAD system.

HighlightsModeling provides the relationships between path, kinematics, geometry, and towed implements.Linear interpolation allows trajectories to be compared if data recording is random.Correction coefficients can be a solution to compensate for soil resistance.Abstract. Automatic guidance systems and autonomous vehicles require tested methods of path generation to ensure successful maneuvers (such as automatic trajectory correction and headland turn management). In this study, an evolution of Zakin’s kinematic modeling, as applied in the automobile industry, is proposed for an agricultural poly-articulated vehicle (representing a tractor or other type of towing vehicle with one or more towed implements attached with an articulated hitch). Geometry, vehicle ground speed, and angular steering velocity are considered in the generation of maneuvering paths. Based on the specifics of real field conditions (slope, plant residue, resistance due to soil compaction, etc.), the initial model was improved by introducing correction coefficients. An experimental setup is proposed using a tractor with two towed implements and a testing method involving point-to-point path comparison. The modeling method has potential for integrating more complex procedures (such as path generation, geolocation, and following) into the design of a maneuvering management system for agricultural machines, which can contribute to the efficiency of field operations.

Abstract:
It is widely accepted that the high cost of Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cells (FC) is a major inhibitor of the transition to extensive commercialization of hydrogen-fueled FCs. One known alternative to this technology is Anion Exchange Membrane (AEM), greatly reducing the need for precious metals, e.g., platinum, and allowing a wider choice of lower cost polymeric materials1. Although research in the field of AEM has greatly evolved recently, AEM-FCs still lack sufficient durability and cell longevity. The current major challenge revolves around the chemical and structural stability of polymers constructing the membrane, which undergo different degradation reactions under cell operating conditions. A widely investigated AEM monomer is Benzyl trimethylammonium (BTMA), a quaternary ammonium (QA) cation, in which the positively charged nitrogen atom enables the selective transfer of hydroxide ions through the membrane2. BTMA degradation occurs in several reaction paths, the main one involving a nucleophilic attack of the hydroxide at the benzylic carbon atom, resulting in complete displacement of the functional group (Fig. 1a). Recently, it has also been shown that low hydration levels of hydroxide, evidently more relevant to the FC’s environment, have an immense impact on the reduced stability of BTMA3,4. Despite the elaborate research done on BTMA degradation, as well as on other QA monomers, complete understanding of the chemical mechanisms affecting the stability of AEM-FCs is still lacking. Modeling these mechanisms can assist in facilitating practical implementation of this promising technology, discovering novel chemically-stable ionomers, while saving time and resources in trial-and-error efforts. The goal of this research is to develop an automated workflow for generating and refining predictive chemical kinetic models describing chemical degradation of AEM monomers, by combining several computational tools, and tailoring them to suit our specific needs. The first is the Reaction Mechanism Generator (RMG) software, which automatically generates chemical kinetic models by utilizing a basic comprehension of chemical reactions5. RMG derives its data from “libraries” of kinetic and thermodynamic parameters based on the literature, and from estimations schemes based on group or decision trees. Since RMG currently does not support ion chemistry, it is required to add this feature to the software, along with solvation corrections, while extending its estimation schemes. To achieve this, accurate kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of the species and reactions of interest are necessary. The present work focuses on describing BTMA degradation. Preliminary results for the temperature-dependent rate coefficient and thermodynamic properties were obtained using the Automated Rate Calculator (ARC) software6. This tool facilitates electronic structure calculations relevant for chemical kinetic modeling, by automatically spawning, tracking, and analyzing relevant computations. We computed the BTMA + OH– reaction rate coefficient at a low hydration level (λ=1) at the ωB97xD/Def2-TZVP level of theory, and compared it to the experimental results obtained at three different temperatures (Fig. 1b). The calculations were performed using the SMD solvation model with DMSO as the solvent, in accordance with the experimental conditions. Our preliminary results show some agreement with experimental measurements, and we expect this agreement to improve by calculating single-point energies using the more accurate coupled-cluster (CC) theory. The methods developed to generate a chemical kinetic model for BTMA, can then be applied for other potential QA monomers. Furthermore, an additional software called The Tandem Tool (T3), can be used to perform model refinement, through a process of iterations between RMG and ARC, creating the desired automated model generation workflow. This process is designed to obtain quantum mechanics-based calculated parameters for significant species and reactions in the model, chosen using sensitivity analysis. Altogether, this work can create a powerful tool, providing insights on known AEM ionomers, as well as the flexibility to investigate additional polymeric materials, with minimal experimental resources.

Abstract:
The kinematic approach to water monitoring of rivers and lakes was by Archimedes Logica under the EU initiatives (LIFE1996) for the monitoring of the Lagoon of Venice. These systems were limited to the measurement of typical basic parameters: pH, Eh, salinity, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity, temperature and immersion depth. However, this earlier system was unable to help against pollution from hydrocarbons. In this paper, the authors present a new kinematic monitoring system named AQUARIUS, which integrates a new generation of automatic chemical and biological analyzers. Automatic sampling and measurement equipment for micro-organism discrimination and counting are present, especially for detecting dangerous species like toxic algae. This article describes the wide spectrum of applications of the new AQUARIUS system: safety control of freshwater reservoirs, detection of urban and agriculture impacts on inland waters and early warning detection of man-made accidents, which are aided by the adoption of new mobile measurement equipment and broadband data channels offered by the modern 3G network.

Abstract:
This paper demonstrates that automatic selection of the right interpolation/smoothing method in a GNSS-based network real-time kinematic (NRTK) interpolation segment can improve the accuracy of the rover position estimates and also the processing time in the NRTK processing center. The methods discussed and investigated are inverse distance weighting (IDW); bilinear and bicubic spline interpolation; kriging interpolation; thin-plate splines; and numerical approximation methods for spatial processes. The methods are implemented and tested using GNSS data from reference stations in the Norwegian network RTK service called CPOS. Data sets with an average baseline between reference stations of 60–70 km were selected. 12 prediction locations were used to analyze the performance of the interpolation methods by computing and comparing different measures of the goodness of fit such as the root mean square error (RMSE), mean square error, and mean absolute error, and also the computation time was compared. Results of the tests show that ordinary kriging with the Matérn covariance function clearly provides the best results. The thin-plate spline provides the second best results of the methods selected and with the test data used.

Abstract:
The technological growth of artificial intelligence (AI) generally presents the characteristics from simple linearity to complex system. In the early days of AI, its basic idea was simple imperative programming. However, people soon found that it could not complete complex thinking work and could only be used in simple scenes such as data processing, video games and industrial automatic control. ChatGPT, which was born, opened the era of universal AI, which indicates that AI has extensive learning ability and reaches or exceeds the level of ordinary human beings in most fields. ChatGPT, as a new generation of AI technology, will profoundly affect human economic and social development. In the future, AI will almost bring changes and reconstruction to all walks of life. Under the background of deepening the supply-side structural reform, it is of great significance to promote the practical application of AI and continuously provide new kinetic energy for economic development. This paper analyzes the development opportunities and challenges of ChatGPT in AI industry, labor and employment, education, scientific research and other fields, and explores the development trend of AI led by ChatGPT.

Abstract:
Les biocarburants sont une alternative pour réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre. Ils ont une composition différente des carburants fossiles, ce qui peut modifier leurs caractéristiques de combustion (ou de pyrolyse), ainsi que leur résistance à l’autoxydation en phase liquide. Les modèles cinétiques détaillés constituent un outil important pour comprendre et prédire la combustion de ces carburants. Leur précision dépend en grande partie de la fiabilité des données cinétiques affectées aux différentes réactions. Dans cette thèse, une nouvelle approche basée sur les modèles tabulés d’état de transition (TMTS) est développée pour estimer les constantes de vitesse en s’appuyant sur des calculs de structures électroniques, couplés aux théories cinétiques (théorie de l’état de transition conventionnelle et variationelle, équation maîtresse). L’approche TMTS consiste à identifier précisément la zone réactionnelle de l’état de transition avec les substituants clés, puis à générer ces structures afin de pouvoir réaliser les calculs de constantes de vitesse. Cette approche a été testée pour l’isomérisation des radicaux alkyles. Les résultats ont montré un impact notable des ramifications de la chaîne sur les coefficients de vitesse, de sorte qu’un tableau de modè les tabulés d’état de transition contenant 51 modèles avec les paramètres cinétiques correspondants, a été proposé pour couvrir les réactions d’isomérisation à 3 et 4 centres. Pour le traitement des isomérisations à 5 centres, un total de 72 modèles a dû être construit, mettant en jeu un grand nombre de diastéréoisomères pour les réactifs et de configurations cycliques pour les TS. Un code en Python, capable de construire et de filtrer toutes les combinaisons y compris les configurations multiples de réactifs et d’états de transition, a été créé. Ce code prépare toutes les entrées du calcul ab initio et traite les sorties pour le code de calcul des constantes de vitesse, en incorporant la détermination de la symétrie ainsi que les différentes voies de réactions pour les structures ramifiées impliquant plusieurs configurations de réactifs et de TS. Les tables de TMTS ont été automatiquement créées pour les réactions d’isomérisations à 6 centres. Les réactions de β-scission des radicaux alkyles, qui représentent une source importante de formation de produits primaires insaturés (alcènes), ont aussi été prises en compte dans ce travail. Le code a été adapté à cette famille de réactions et des tables de TMTS ont également été proposées pour les β-scissions des liaisons C-C et C-H, avec un total de 45 modèles. Les métathèses sur les alcanes, par des radicaux hydrogène et alkyles, ont également été traitées par le code, avec un total de 20 modèles de réaction proposés. Finalement, les réactions de recombinaisons de radicaux alkyles ont également été étudiées mais ont nécessité un traitement variationnel pour évaluer les constantes de vitesse. Pour cette famille de réactions, les constantes de vitesse ont été obtenues en fonction de la température et de la pression pour différentes tailles de chaînes alkyles. Les résultats ont permis de constater qu’une règle simple appelée "règle de la moyenne géométrique" (GMR) était utilisable pour étendre les constantes cinétiques dépendant de la pression à des systèmes moléculaires de grande taille. Cette règle a donc été prise en compte pour finaliser la table des TMTS pour cette famille de réactions. A l’issue de la thèse, les familles de réactions couvertes par les tableaux TMTS englobent la grande majorité des réactions de pyrolyse des alcanes et leur implémentation dans les mécanismes cinétiquesdoit permettre d’améliorer la précision des modèles, notamment pour les alcanes linéaires et ramifiés<br>Bio-sourced fuels are a potential alternative to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases. These fuels present a composition different than the usual fossil fuels, which impacts their combustion and pyrolysis characteristics, as well as their resistance to liquid phase oxidation processes. Detailed kinetic models are an important tool for understanding and predicting the combustion of such fuels. The accuracy of these models mainly depends on the reliability of the kinetic data available for the reactions. In this thesis, a new theoretical approach named "the tabulated models of transition state" (TMTS), to estimate rate constants for reaction mechanisms, is developed. The rate coefficients were obtained based on theoretical methods, via ab initio calculations, coupled with kinetic rate theories (Transition State Theory, Variational TST, and Master Equation). The TMTS approach consists in identifying the key aspects of the reaction moiety that are important when defining the rate constants, and then creating models of reactions covering all the identified aspects. This approach was first tested for the isomerization of alkyl radicals, a reaction family that changes the radical positions in alkyl chains and impacts the final products distribution. The results indicated an important effect of alkyl chain branches on the final rate coefficients, so a table of transition state models with the corresponding parameters was proposed to cover 1,3 and 1,4-H-shift isomerization reactions, representing a total of 51 models of transition states. For the treatment of branching cases of 1,5-H-shift reactions, a total of 72 models had to be built, representing a myriad of reactant diastereoisomers and cyclic transition state configurations. A code in Python capable of building and filtering all the necessary combinations of models, including multiple reactant and TS configurations, was created. This code prepared all the electronic structure calculation inputs and treated the outputs for kinetic calculation code, incorporating features for symmetry determination, as well as classification of reaction pathways for branched structures with multiple configurations of reactant and TS. The results obtained from the code were compared to the ones produced by hand and the code was found to overcome the human results, as it avoided symmetries and optical isomers errors, and the TMTS tables were automatically created to the 1,5-H-shift reactions. The β-scission of alkyl radicals represent another important class of reactions, as they lead to the formation of unsaturated primary products (alkenes), so the same approach was applied for this reaction family, and tables containing the models of transition state were also proposed for C-C and C-H bond scissions, resulting in a total of 45 reaction models. The H-abstraction reactions by hydrogen atom and alkyl radicals were also treated by the code, representinga total of 20 reaction models. Finally, the alkyl recombinations were also investigated, a reaction family with loose TS that required a refined variational treatment. For this reaction family, rate constants were obtained theoretically in function of temperature and pressure for different alkyl chain sizes. From the results, a simple rule called "the geometric mean rule" (GMR) was useful for expanding pressure-dependent rate coefficients from small to large systems. Therefore, this rule was combined with the results calculated theoretically to propose tabulated values for the kinetic data of alkyl recombination reactions. The reaction families covered by the TMTS tables include the majority of the alkane pyrolysis process and their implementation on reaction mechanisms should improve the accuracy of branched and linear alkane models

Reaction mechanisms have shown increased predictive capability, providing key insights into chemical transformations under conditions of interest. Coupled and integrated in multiscale-multiphysics models, reaction mechanisms help elucidate physical phenomena that are driven by chemical kinetics and are recognized as a necessary tool for chemical selection, reactor design and process optimization. These past kinetic modeling achievements have opened new opportunities for novel scientific applications in chemical kinetics community and encouraged kinetic modelers to study even more complex chemical systems.

Frequently, oversimplified models using the kinetic parameters fitted from a very limited set of pilot experiments, resulting in poor accuracy in extrapolation. This thesis focuses on automated detailed kinetic modeling strategy using Reaction Mechanism Generator (RMG). RMG-generated models more faithfully represent the chemistry so they have superior extrapolation potential. But as system complexity increases, several computational limitations prevent RMG from converging. This thesis has made several contributions: reducing memory usage, boosting algorithm scalability, improving thermochemistry estimation accuracy, which eventually expand RMG's modeling capability toward large complex systems.

As an extension of RMG, the thesis also explores a promising alternative to detailed kinetic modeling when dealing with extremely large chemical systems: fragment-based kinetic modeling, which generates a reaction network in fragment space rather than molecule space.

Abstract:
Incorrect system operation can, at worst, be life threatening or financially devastating. Software testing is a destructive process that aims to reveal software faults. Selection of good test data can be extremely difficult. To ease and assist test data selection, several test data generators have emerged that use a diverse range of approaches. Adaptive test data generators use existing test data to produce further effective test data. It has been observed that there is little empirical data on the adaptive approach. This thesis presents the Heuristically Aided Testing System (HATS), which is an adaptive test data generator that uses several heuristics. A heuristic embodies a test data generation technique. Four heuristics have been developed. The first heuristic, Direct Assignment, generates test data for conditions involving an input variable and a constant. The Alternating Variable heuristic determines a promising direction to modify input variables, then takes ever increasing steps in this direction. The Linear Predictor heuristic performs linear extrapolations on input variables. The final heuristic, Boundary Follower, uses input domain boundaries as a guide to locate hard-to-find solutions. Several Ada procedures have been tested with HATS; a quadratic equation solver, a triangle classifier, a remainder calculator and a linear search. Collectively they present some common and rare test data generation problems. The weakest testing criterion HATS has attempted to satisfy is all branches. Stronger, mutation-based criteria have been used on two of the procedures. HATS has achieved complete branch coverage on each procedure, except where there is a higher level of control flow complexity combined with non-linear input variables. Both branch and mutation testing criteria have enabled a better understanding of the test data generation problems and contributed to the evolution of heuristics and the development of new heuristics. This thesis contributes the following to knowledge: Empirical data on the adaptive heuristic approach to test data generation. How input domain boundaries can be used as guidance for a heuristic. An effective heuristic termination technique based on the heuristic's progress. A comparison of HATS with random testing. Properties of the test software that indicate when HATS will take less effort than random testing are identified.

ITC/USA 2009 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-Fifth Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 26-29, 2009 / Riviera Hotel & Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada<br>Configuring a modern, high-performance data acquisition system is typically a very timeconsuming and complex process. Any enhancement to the data acquisition setup software that can reduce the amount of time needed to configure the system is extremely useful. Automatic format generation is one of the most useful enhancements to a data acquisition setup application. By using Automatic Format Generation, an instrumentation engineer can significantly reduce the amount of time that is spent configuring the system while simultaneously gaining much greater flexibility in creating sampling formats. This paper discusses several techniques that can be used to generate sampling formats automatically while making highly efficient use of the system's bandwidth. This allows the user to obtain most of the benefits of a hand-tuned, manually created format without spending excessive time creating it. One of the primary techniques that this paper discusses is an enhancement to the commonly used power-of-two rule, for selecting sampling rates. This allows the system to create formats that use a wider variety of rates. The system is also able to handle groups of related measurements that must follow each other sequentially in the sampling format. This paper will also cover a packet based formatting scheme that organizes measurements based on common sampling rates. Each packet contains a set of measurements that are sampled at a particular rate. A key benefit of using an automatic format generation system with this format is the optimization of sampling rates that are used to achieve the best possible match for each measurement's desired sampling rate.

Abstract:
The application of heuristic search techniques, such as genetic algorithms, to the problem of automatically generating software test data has been a growing interest for many researchers in recent years. The problem tackled by this thesis is the development of heuristics for test data search for a class of test data generation problems that could not be solved prior to the work done in this thesis because of a lack of an informative cost function. Prior to this thesis, work in applying search techniques to structural test data generation was largely limited to numeric test data and in particular, this left open the problem of generating string test data. Some potential string cost functions and corresponding search operators are presented in this thesis. For string equality, an adaptation of the binary Hamming distance is considered, together with two new string specific match cost functions. New cost functions for string ordering are also defined. For string equality, a version of the edit distance cost function with fine-grained costs based on the difference in character ordinal values was found to be the most effective in an empirical study. A second problem tackled in this thesis is the problem of generating test data for programs whose coverage criterion cost function is locally constant. This arises because the computation produced by many programs leads to a loss of information. The use of flag variables, for example, can lead to information loss. Consequently, conventional instrumentation added to a program receives constant or almost constant input and hence the search receives very little guidance and will often fail to find test data. The approach adopted in this thesis is to exploit the structure and behaviour of the computation from the input values to the test goal, the usual instrumentation point. The new technique depends on introducing program data-state scarcity as an additional search goal. The search is guided by a new fitness function made up of two parts, one depending on the branch distance of the test goal, the other depending on the diversity of the data-states produced during execution of the program under test. In addition to the program data-state, the program operations, in the form of the program-specific operations, can be used to aid the generation of test data. The program-specific operators is demonstrated for strings and an empirical investigation showed a fivefold increase in performance. This technique can also be generalised to other data types. An empirical investigation of the use of program-specific search operators combined with a data-state scarcity search for flag problems showed a threefold increase in performance.

2013 - 2014<br>Strategic information is one of the main assets for many organizations and, in the next future, it will become increasingly more important to enable the decisionmakers answer questions about their business, such as how to increase their profitability. A proper decision-making process is benefited by information that is frequently scattered among several heterogeneous databases. Such databases may come from several organization systems and even from external sources. As a result, organization managers have to deal with the issue of integrating several databases from independent data sources containing semantic differences and no specific or canonical concept description. Data Warehouse Systems were born to integrate such kind of heterogeneous data in order to be successively extracted and analyzed according to the manager’s needs and business plans. Besides being difficult and onerous to design, integrate and build, Data Warehouse Systems present another issue related to the difficulty to represent multidimensional information typical of the result of OLAP operations, such as aggregations on data cubes, extraction of sub-cubes or rotations of the data axis, through easy to understand views...

Abstract:
Nowadays, while 3D city reconstruction has been widely used in important topics like urban design and traffic simulation, frameworks to efficiently model large-scale road network based on data from the real world are of high interests. However, the diversity of the form of road networks is still a challenge for automatic reconstruction, and the information extracted from input data can highly determine the final effect to display. In this project, OpenStreetMap data is chosen as the only input of a three-stage method to efficiently generate a geometric model of the associated road network in varied forms. The method is applied to datasets from cities in the real world of different scales, rendered and presented the generated models on Unity3D platform, and compared them with the original road networks in both the quality and topology aspects. The results suggest that our method can reconstruct the features of original road networks in common cases such as three-way, four-way intersections, and roundabouts while consuming much shorter time than manual modeling in a large-scale urban scene. This framework contributes to an auxiliary tool for quick city traffic system reconstruction of multiple purposes, while there still being space of improvement for the modeling universality and quality of the method.

Full text
Abstract:
Compartmental models are widely used to simplify the analysis of complex fluid dynamics systems, yet subjective compartment definitions and computational constraints often limit their applicability. The CompArt algorithm introduces an AI-driven framework that automates compartmentalization in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations, optimizing both accuracy and efficiency. By leveraging unsupervised clustering techniques such as Agglomerative Clustering, CompArt identifies coherent flow regions based on velocity and turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate, ensuring a data-driven, physically consistent segmentation. The methodology integrates a connectivity-based clustering strategy, where compartments are dynamically optimized using the Silhouette score and adjacency matrix. This approach enables the reduction of high-resolution 3D CFD simulations into a network of interconnected sub-systems, significantly lowering computational costs while preserving system heterogeneity. The framework was tested on turbulent stirred tank simulations at 200 and 400 RPM, demonstrating its ability to capture both large-scale flow structures and fine-scale turbulence features. At higher RPM, increased mixing leads to a more fragmented dissipation pattern, which the model successfully adapts to. With scalability up to industrial scale meshes (~1M cells) and full automation of hyperparameter selection, CompArt enhances the applicability of CFD compartmental models in crystallization, multiphase flow, and process optimization. By bridging AI-driven clustering with physical modelling, this novel framework streamlines CFD simulations, making real-time industrial applications feasible without sacrificing predictive accuracy.

Full text
Abstract:
Nucleophilic aromatic substitutions (SNAr) are key chemical transformations in pharmaceutical and agrochemical synthesis, yet their complex mechanisms (concerted or two-step) complicate kinetic model identification. Accurate kinetic models for SNAr are essential for scale-up, optimization, and control of the reaction process, but conventional methods struggle with mechanism uncertainty driven by substrates, nucleophiles, and reaction conditions, with data collection being difficult due to its source-intensive nature. We address this using DoE-SINDy, a data-driven framework for generative modelling without complete theoretical understanding. A benchmark study on the SNAr reaction of 2,4-difluoronitrobenzene with morpholine in ethanol was conducted, incorporating parallel and consecutive side-product formation. Ground-truth kinetic models validated in prior studies were used to generate in-silico data under varying noise levels and sampling intervals. DoE-SINDy successfully identified the true kinetic model with minimal runs, quantifying the impact of key design factors such as inlet concentrations, residence time, sample size and experimental budget on model identification.

Abstract:
A robust optimization scheme, known as rkmGen, for reaction rate parameter estimation has been developed for the generation of reduced kinetics models of practical interest for reactive flow simulations. It employs a stochastic optimization algorithm known as Simulated Annealing, and is implemented in C++ and coupled with Cantera, a chemical kinetics software package, to automate the reduced kinetic mechanism generation process. Reaction rate parameters in reduced order models can be estimated by optimizing against target data generated from a detailed model or by experiment. Target data may be of several different kinds: ignition delay time, blow-out time, laminar flame speed, species time-history profiles and species reactivity profiles. The software allows for simultaneous optimization against multiple target data sets over a wide range of temperatures, pressures and equivalence ratios. In this paper, a detailed description of the optimization strategy used for the reaction parameter estimation is provided. To illustrate the performance of the software for reduced kinetic development, a number of test cases for various fuels were used: one-step, three-step and four-step global reduced kinetic models for ethylene, Jet-A and methane, respectively, and a fifty-step semi-global reduced kinetic model for methane. The fifty-step semi-global reduced kinetic model was implemented in the Star*CCM+ commercial CFD code to simulate Sandia Flame D using laminar flamelet libraries and compared with the experimental data. Simulations were also performed with the GRI3.0 mechanism for comparisons.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper details an automated process to create a robotic model of a subject’s upper body using motion analysis data of a subject performing simple range of motion (RoM) tasks. The upper body model was created by calculating subject specific kinematics using functional joint center (FJC) methods, this makes the model highly accurate. The subjects’ kinematics were then used to find robotic parameters. This allowed the robotic model to be calculated directly from motion analysis data. The RoM tasks provide the joint motion necessary to ensure the accuracy of the FJC method. Model creation was tested using five healthy adult male subjects, with data collected using an eight camera Vicon© (Oxford, UK) motion analysis system. Common anthropometric measures were also taken manually for comparison to the FJC kinematic measures calculated from marker position data. The algorithms successfully generated models for each subject based on the recorded RoM task data. Analysis of the generated model parameters relative to the manual measures was performed to determine the correlations. Methods for replacing model parameters extracted from the motion analysis data with hand measurements are presented. The accuracy of the model generating algorithm was tested by reconstructing motion using the parameters and joint angles extracted from the RoM tasks data, correlated manual measurements, and height based correlations from literature data. Error was defined as the average difference between the recorded position and reconstructed positions and orientations of the hand. For all of the tested subjects the model generated using the RoM tasks data showed least average error over the tested trials. Each of the tested results were significantly different in position error with the FJC generated model being the most accurate, followed by the correlated measurement data, and finally the height based calculations. No difference was found between the end effector orientation of generated models. The models developed in this study will be used with additional subject tasks in order to better predict human motion.

Abstract:
&lt;div class="section abstract"&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;In the rapidly changing scenario of the energy transition, data-driven tools for kinetic mechanism development and testing can greatly support the evaluation of the combustion properties of new potential e-fuels. Despite the effectiveness of kinetic mechanism generation and optimization procedures and the increased availability of experimental data, integrated methodologies combining data analysis, kinetic simulations, chemical lumping, and kinetic mechanism optimization are still lacking. This paper presents an integrated workflow that combines recently developed automated tools for kinetic mechanism development and testing, from data collection to kinetic model reduction and optimization. The proposed methodology is applied to build a consistent, efficient, and well-performing kinetic mechanism for the combustion of oxymethylene ethers (OMEs), which are promising synthetic e-fuels for transportation. In fact, OMEs are easily mixed with conventional fuels and share similar ignition propensity, and are therefore potential drop-in fuels. Additionally, their oxygenated nature significantly reduces soot emissions. The proposed workflow extends our recently developed kinetic mechanism for OME&lt;sub&gt;1&lt;/sub&gt; (dimethoxymethane – DMM) to OME&lt;sub&gt;2-4&lt;/sub&gt;: the model is derived from state-of-the-art detailed literature mechanisms, updated according to a reaction class-based approach, and simplified according to chemical lumping. Then, the model is reduced to two different skeletal versions using DRGEP method. An extensive database of ~80 datasets for kinetic mechanism testing is collected, covering different reactor types and experimental conditions. The selected datasets are uploaded to SciExpeM, a recently developed data ecosystem that allows automated kinetic mechanism performance evaluation through a multi-index approach. The performance obtained from SciExpeM shows that the lumped mechanism reproduces well the selected experimental data, and both skeletal mechanisms, well-suited to CFD and engine simulations, show equally good performance. Some minor model deficiencies identified for OME&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; and OME&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt; are finally recovered via data-driven kinetic modeling optimization, which relies on the same multi-index approach adopted in SciExpeM for the kinetic model evaluation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Abstract:
Abstract In the third generation pressurized water reactor AP1000 plant, the Automatic Depressurization System (ADS) is one of the most important passive safety system. However, the steam Direct Contact Condensation (DCC) microscopic mechanisms are very complicated, which are not very clear yet. Moreover, the high-pressure and high-temperature experiment is very expensive to be conducted for many different test conditions. So in the present work, both the experimental and numerical methods are employed to investigate the steam DCC behavior. The steam DCC experimental bench has been built up, and the key parameters including the flow patterns and steam core temperature distributions are measured to provide validation data for the numerical results. In aspect of the numerical work, CFD simulation on the steam condensation is conducted. The heat and mass transfer process is simulated through the three-dimension commercial software FLUENT 16.0. Some of the key heat and mass transfer correlations are added by User Defined Function (UDF). The key parameters including the condensation steam fraction, temperature, and pressure, etc. are analyzed, which reflect the major heat transfer characteristics. According to the results, the expansion-compression-steam tail could be observed in both the numerical and experimental results. In essential, the steam fraction, temperature, and pressure distributions are determined by the equilibrium and transformation between the thermal dynamic energy and kinetic energy. The results provide working references for the practical ADS steam spraying condensation process in AP1000 reactor.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper presents a systematic rapid creative design framework for complex mechanisms to support creative conceptual design schemes’ generation and 3D virtual simulation. In conceptual design stage, a rule-based creative conceptual design system is constructed to expand conceptual design solution space through operating design rules related to functional requirements of design problems with graphic carriers. Compared with FBS models or catalogue-based matching approaches, the rule-based system can dig out more innovative conceptual design schemes including generalized mechanisms. Then a great number of conceptual design schemes generated in conceptual design are represented with symbolic schemes and identified into constituent basic mechanisms and their connections. To the constituent basic mechanisms, the object-oriented (OO) technology is applied to set up their 3D virtual solid models with encapsulated key feature parameters, which can be automatically modified by system’s database with the aid of the new defined classes. According to the OO solid models of constituent basic mechanisms and their connections, a 3D space layout algorithm considering the connections among the solid models is developed to determine the position of each constituent solid basic mechanism. Finally, an object-oriented based kinematic analysis method is pro-posed to carry out automatic kinematic analysis of the complex mechanisms related to the symbolic schemes. By means of the virtual-assembly approach and the kinematic data, all constituent components in the complex mechanisms are put onto the proper positions as they are assembled manually. In this way, the systematic design processes for complex mechanisms from creative conceptual design schemes’ generation, to 3D virtual solid design, layout de-sign, kinematic analysis, and virtual assembly and simulation are realized automatically. Based on the framework presented in this paper, rapid generating and evaluating innovative, excellent-performance schemes of complex mechanisms in 3D virtual prototype form are possible.

Full text
Abstract:
The U.S. military requires a rapid means of measuring subsurface soil strength for construction and repair of expeditionary pavement surfaces. Traditionally, a dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) has served this purpose, providing strength with depth profiles in natural and prepared pavement surfaces. To improve upon this device, the Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) validated a new battery-powered automatic dynamic cone penetrometer (A-DCP) apparatus that automates the driving process by using a motor-driven hammering cap placed on top of a traditional DCP rod. The device improves upon a traditional DCP by applying three to four blows per second while digitally recording depth, blow count, and California Bearing Ratio (CBR). An integrated Global Positioning Sensor (GPS) and Bluetooth® connection allow for real-time data capture and stationing. Similarities were illustrated between the DCP and the A-DCP by generation of a new A-DCP calibration curve. This curve relates penetration rate to field CBR that nearly follows the DCP calibration with the exception of a slight offset. Field testing of the A-DCP showed less variability and more consistent strength measurement with depth at a speed five times greater than that of the DCP with minimal physical exertion by the operator.

Full text
Abstract:
The production of semantic annotations has gained renewed attention due to the development of anatomical ontologies and the documentation of morphological data. Two methods are proposed in this production, differing in their methodological and philosophical approaches: class-based method and instance-based method. The first, the semantic annotations are established as class expressions, while in the second, the annotations incorporate individuals. An empirical evaluation of the above methods was applied in the morphological description of Neotropical species of the genus Lepidocyrtus (Collembola: Entomobryidae: Lepidocyrtinae). The semantic annotations are expressed as RDF triple, which is a language most flexible than the Entity-Quality syntax used commonly in the description of phenotypes. The morphological descriptions were built in Protégé 5.4.0 and stored in an RDF store created with Fuseki Jena. The semantic annotations based on RDF triple increase the interoperability and integration of data from diverse sources, e.g., museum data. However, computational challenges are present, which are related with the development of semi-automatic methods for the generation of RDF triple, interchanging between texts and RDF triple, and the access by non-expert users.
