Mathematical modeling is an indispensable tool for research and development in biotechnology and bioengineering. The formulation of kinetic models of biochemical networks depends on knowledge of the kinetic properties of the enzymes of the individual react ...
The ion pair of the stereolabile C3-symmetric, i+o proton complex [1⋅H]+ of diaza-macropentacycle 1 and the configurationally stable Δ-TRISPHAT ([Δ-3]−) anion exists in the form of two diastereomers, namely, [Δ-(1⋅H)][Δ-3] and [Λ-(1⋅H)][Δ-3], the ratio of ...
Abundant in nature lignocellulosic plant biomass represent a promising, sustainable, source of energy as it can be converted into fuel ethanol through the fermentation of one of its prevalent sugar constituents – xylose. Xylose-utilizing recombinant Saccha ...
Enhanced coal bed methane recovery (ECBM) consists in injecting carbon dioxide in coal bed methane reservoirs in order to facilitate the recovery of the methane. The injected carbon dioxide gets adsorbed at the surface of the coal pores, which causes the c ...
Our work investigates the precipitation mechanism of a seeded calcium carbonate reaction, by using cryogenic TEM to observe the early stages of the reaction. The early precipitation of a hydrated phase is proposed as an intermediate phase before transforma ...
Motivated by applications in orthopaedic and maxillo-facial surgery, the mechanical behaviour of cortical bone in cyclic overloads at physiological strain rates is investigated. To this end, a new one-dimensional rate-independent constitutive model for com ...
An emerging model views gene regulation as a competition for regulatory sequences between transcription factors and nucleosomes at thermodynamic equilibrium. A computational model of the DNA affinity of nucleosomes was recently developed allowing to predic ...
In literature many different blind controller have been proposed and it has been shown in most cases, that they can provide energy savings and better comfort. In the early approaches they where based only on one state variable, but over time more variables ...
Calibration or model parameter estimation from measured data is an ubiquitous problem in engineering. In systems biology this problem turns out to be particularly challenging due to very short data-records, low signal-to-noise ratio of data acquisition, la ...

A three dimensional chemical transport model (PMCAMx) is applied to the Mexico City Metropolitan Area (MCMA) in order to simulate the chemical composition and mass of the major PM1 (fine) and PM1-10 (coarse) inorganic components and determine the effect of ...
