Discovery and evaluation of novel pathways for production of methyl ethyl ketone

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Meriç Ataman, Noushin Hadadi, Milenko Tokic

The limited supply of fossil fuels and environmental reasons shifted research in industry and academia towards finding their replacements. An important part of these efforts is focused on a sustainable production of the 2nd generation of biofuels. Among ma ...

Thermodynamics-based Metabolite Sensitivity Analysis in metabolic networks

Vassily Hatzimanikatis

The increasing availability of large metabolomics datasets enhances the need for computational methodologies that can organize the data in a way that can lead to the inference of meaningful relationships. Knowledge of the metabolic state of a cell and how ...

Irreducible network backbones: unbiased graph filtering via maximum entropy

Alessio Vincenzo Cardillo

Networks provide an informative, yet non-redundant description of complex systems only if links represent truly dyadic relationships that cannot be directly traced back to node-specific properties such as size, importance, or coordinates in some embedding ...

Measurement system design for leak detection in hydraulic pressurized networks

Ian Smith, Gaudenz Moser

This paper compares four sensor placement strategies which differ according to their evaluation criteria (EC). The first involves the minimisation of the expected number of candidate models, and the second is based on maximising joint entropy. The first me ...

Observation of extreme phase transition temperatures of water confined inside isolated carbon nanotubes

Kumar Varoon Agrawal

Fluid phase transitions inside single, isolated carbon nanotubes are predicted to deviate substantially from classical thermodynamics. This behaviour enables the study of ice nanotubes and the exploration of their potential applications. Here we report mea ...

Determining The Potential Of Salinity Gradient Energy Source Using An Exergy Analysis

Arash Emdadi

Mixing of fresh (river) water and salty water (seawater or saline brine) in a control fashion would produces an electrical energy known as salinity gradient energy (SGE). Two main conversion technologies of SGE are membrane-based processes; pressure retard ...

Non-diffusive transport of suprathermal ions by intermittent turbulent structures

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Kyle Gustafson, Alexandre Dominique Bovet

We report on recent experimental, numerical and theoretical investigations of suprathermal ion transport and turbulent plasma dynamics in TORPEX. TORPEX is a toroidal device in which field-aligned blobs are intermittently generated and propagate across a c ...

Navigating and Managing the Complexity of Genome Scale Metabolic Networks for Studies in Cellular Physiology and Industrial Biotechnology

Meriç Ataman

Metabolism is a network of biochemical reactions that converts carbon sources to cellu-lar fuels and building blocks. Metabolism of many organisms has been studied for many decades. These studies define metabolism as a very large and complex network. Stoic ...

Energetics and thermodynamics of α-iron from first-principles and machine-learning potentials

Daniele Dragoni

Iron is a material of fundamental importance in the industrial and economic processes of our society as it is the major constituent of steels. With advances in computational science, much progress has been made in the understanding of the microscopic mecha ...

Discovery and Evaluation of Novel Pathways for Production of the Second Generation of Biofuels

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Meriç Ataman, Noushin Hadadi, Milenko Tokic

In an effort of overcoming the limited availability of fossil energy resources the focus of the research and development in the area of biofuels has moved towards developing the second generation of fuels that should be produced via microbial fermentation. ...
