This project is concerned with the heat integration of batch processes. A former project developed Pinch Analysis based procedures (PinchBatch) for the supertargeting of batch processes, as well as for the design and optimization of indirect heat recovery ...
This paper presents a microsystem consisting of an overhanging xy-microstage with integrated tip and comb actuators for scanning surface profiling. The design is optimized with respect to precise xy positioning at low drive voltages and accurate detection ...
A novel piezoelectric thin-film accelerometer has been designed and its performance has been analysed. The piezoelectric thin film (PZT for example) is delineated into an array of pads to reduce the sensor capacitance. By filling the cavity around the PZT ...
Performance Evaluation of a Consensus Algorithm with Petri Nets N. Sergent This paper presents an application of Hierarchical Coloured Timed Petri Nets to the modeling, the evaluation and the improvement of the performance of a distributed consensus algori ...
The design of a mechatronic system in an industrial context is alwais affected by cost. Either the performances have to be optimized for a given cost or the cost must be minimized for the given performances. ...
This paper presents algorithms for inserting monitoring code to profile and trace programs. These algorithms greatly reduce the cost of measuring programs. Profiling counts the number of times each basic block in a program executes and has a variety of app ...
The sorption kinetics in acetoxidn. of ethylene on a Pd catalyst is detd. and the application of the results in the design and optimization of heterogeneous catalytic reactors is discussed. [on SciFinder (R)] ...
