  • This paper presents a new methodology to calculate an optimal solution of equilibrium to power system differential algebraic equations. It employs a nonlinear interior point method for solving the optimization formulation, which includes dynamic equations representing two-axis synchronous generator models with AVR and speed governing control, algebraic equations, and steady-state nonlinear loads. Equilibrium optimization (EOPT) is useful for diverse purposes in power system analysis and control with consideration of the system frequency constraint.

  • An extensive molecular equilibrium calculation has been performed under sunspot conditions in order to resolve the current dispute on the presence of $C_2$ lines in the spectrum of sunspots. Equilibrium abundance of $C_2$ has been computed under the conditions of umbral cores, umbrae and the normal photosphere. As the results, it is found that the umbral cores yield unfavorable environment for $C_2$ formation. It is concluded that $C_2$ molecular lines are not likely tn be observed in the spectrum of sunspots.

  • A mutigrid convergence acceleration technique is presented for computing hypersonic inviscid and viscous flows in equilibrium state. The governing equations are solved using an explicit Runge-Kutta method. Curve fitting data in NASA Reference Publication 1181, 1260 are used to calculate equilibrium properties. In order to ensure stability, damped prolongation and modified implicit residual smoothing are proposed. Blunt body test cases are presented to demonstrate the robustness and the efficiency in performance of the proposed methods

  • We report the millimeter-wave radio observations of molecular cloud cores in Taurus. The observed line is the $N_2H^+$ emission at 93 GHz, which is known to be less affected by molecular depletion. We have compared starless (IRAS-less) cores with star-forming cores. We found that there is no large difference between starless and star-forming cores, in core radius, linewidth, core mass, and radial intensity profile. Our result is in contrast with the result obtained by using a popular molecular line, in which starless cores are larger and less condensed. We suggest that different results mainly come from whether the employed molecular line is affected by depletion or not. We made a virial analysis, and found that both starless and star-forming cores are not far from the critical equilibrium state, in Taurus. Together with the fact that Taurus cores are almost thermally supported, we conclude that starless Taurus cores evolve to star formation without dissipating turbulence. The critical equilibrium state in the virial analysis corresponds to the critical Bonnor-Ebert sphere in the Bonnor-Ebert analysis (Nakano 1998). It is suggested that the initial condition of the molecular cloud cores/globules for star formation is close to the critical equilibrium state/critical Bonnor-Ebert sphere, in the low-mass star forming region.

  • By the use of multi-loop thermodynamic boxes developed here by us, we show that models of enzyme catalysis (e.g., split-site model) developed in an attempt to emphasize the importance of the reactant-state destabilization and, thus, demonstrate misleading nature of the fundamentalist position which defines Pauling's transition-state stabilization as the entire and sole source of enzyme catalytic power, should be reduced to the fundamentalist formulation which completely neglects dynamical aspects of mechanism between the reactant and the transition states and dwells only on events restricted to the reactant and transition states alone, because the splitsite (and other canonical) formulations as well as fundamentalist formulations are based, in common, on equilibrium assumptions stipulated by the thermodynamic box logics. We propose to define the equilibrium assumptions as the requisite and sufficient conditions for the fundamentalist position to enjoy its primacy as central dogma, but not as sufficient conditions for its validity, because it is subjected to contradictions presented by existing data.

  • Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is a very efficient method to explain the relationship between functions for finding basis information of multivariate nonnegative data. The multiplicative update (MU) algorithm is a popular approach to solve the NMF problem, but it fails to approach a stationary point and has inner iteration and zero divisor. So the elementwisely alternating projected gradient (eAPG) algorithm was proposed to overcome the defects. In this paper, we use the fact that the equilibrium point is stable to prove the convergence of the eAPG algorithm. By using a classic model, the equilibrium point is obtained and the invariant sets are constructed to guarantee the integrity of the stability. Finally, the convergence conditions of the eAPG algorithm are obtained, which can accelerate the convergence. In addition, the conditions, which satisfy that the non-zero equilibrium point exists and is stable, can cause that the algorithm converges to different values. Both of them are confirmed in the experiments. And we give the mathematical proof that the eAPG algorithm can reach the appointed precision at the least iterations compared to the MU algorithm. Thus, we theoretically illustrate the advantages of the eAPG algorithm.

  • This study is a generalization of 'stable dynamics' recently suggested by Nesterov and de Palma[29]. Stable dynamics is a new model which describes and provides a stable state of congestion in urban transportation networks. In comparison with user equilibrium model that is common in analyzing transportation networks, stable dynamics requires few parameters and is coincident with intuitions and observations on the congestion. Therefore it is expected to be an useful analysis tool for transportation planners. An equilibrium in stable dynamics needs only maximum flow in each arc and Wardrop[33] Principle. In this study, we generalize the stable dynamics into the model with multiple traffic classes. We classify the traffic into the types of vehicle such as cars, buses and trucks. Driving behaviors classified by age, sex and income-level can also be classes. We develop an equilibrium with multiple traffic classes. We can find the equilibrium by solving the well-known network problem, multicommodity minimum cost network flow problem.

  • The forty vapor-liquid equilibrium data of the binary system, HFC125+Propane, were measured between 273.15 and 313.15 K at 10 K interval and the composition range 0.2∼0.75, respectively. Experiments were performed in a circulation type apparatus in which the vapor phase was forced through the liquid phase. The composition at equilibrium were mea-sured by gas chromatography, and its response was calibrated using gravimetrically prepared mixtures. Vapor-liquid equilibrium data were calculated by using CSD equation of state and compared with the experimental data.

  • Sparkjet actuator, also known as plasma synthetic jet actuator (PSJA), is an active flow control device that has possibility of controling supersonic flow. This actuator utilizes arc plasma to deposit energy onto the gas inside the cavity to raise temperature and pressure. A change in the state of the fluid inside the cavity generates pressure waves and momentum jet, and they are exhausted through out the orifice exit and disturb external flow field. Since the cavity flow is affected by arc plasma, which is an equilibrium plasma and have generated equilibrium flow, the equilibrium state of air should be considered in order to analyze the flow of sparkjet actuator. In this study, numerical program for equilibrium flow was developed for the use of sparkjet actuator analysis. The developed program was validated by comparing the time - accurate jet front positions with the reference result. Then, impulse characteristics of the actuator in the atmospheric quiescent air were explained.
