Dynamics of the Chemostat (eBook, ePUB)

A Bifurcation Theory Approach

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A ubiquitous tool in mathematical biology and chemical engineering, the chemostat often produces instabilities that pose safety hazards and adversely affect the optimization of bioreactive systems. Singularity theory and bifurcation diagrams together offer a useful framework for addressing these issues. Based on the authors' extensive work in this

Autorenporträt

Abdelhamid Ajbar is a professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at King Saud University. He earned a Ph.D. in chemical engineering from the University of Notre Dame. His research interests encompass the analysis, design, and control of chemical and biochemical systems as well as the applications of chaos theory to study hydrodynamics of multiphase reactors.

Khalid Alhumaizi is a professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at King Saud University. He earned a Ph.D. in chemical engineering from the University of Minnesota. He also co-authored (with the late R. Aris) the book Surveying a Dynamical System: A Study of the Gray-Scott Reaction in a Two-Phase Reactor. His research interests include process modeling and simulation and nonlinear dynamics.
