Simultaneous Pseudo-Timestepping for PDE-Model Based Optimization Problems

In this paper we present a new method for the solution of optimization problems with PDE constraints. It is based on simultaneous pseudo-time stepping for evolution equations. The new method can be viewed as a continuous reduced SQP method in the sense that it uses a preconditioner derived from that method. The reduced Hessian in the preconditioner is approximated by a pseudo-differential operator, whose symbol can be investigated analytically. We apply our method to a boundary control model problem. The new optimization method needs 3.2-times the overall computational effort of the solution of simulation problem alone.

Cyclic BSEC of block size 3

Balanced sampling plans excluding contiguous units (or BSEC) were first introduced by Hedayat, Rao and Stufken in 1988. In this note, we discuss constructions of these designs having cyclic automorphisms. We use Langford sequences to construct all possible cyclic BSEC (or CBSEC) with block size 3 and λ = 1,2, which establishes the necessary and sufficient conditions for such designs. Some constructions of the balanced sampling plan avoiding adjacent units, a generalization of BSEC, are also given for fixed λ.

从结构电算谈设计概念

使用计算机进行结构设计虽然能大大减轻计算工作量，但不能取代人的设计概念，只有在设计人员具备较全面的设计概念；有一定设计经验；同时深入了解程度的情况下，才能确保工程设计的质量。

On the connectedness of partially balanced block designs

The necessary and sufficient conditions for m-associate partially balanced block (PBB) designs to be connected are given. This generalizes the criterion for m-associate partially balanced incomplete block (PBIB) designs, which has originally been established by Ogawa, Ikeda and Kageyama (1984, Proceedings of the Seminar on Combinatorics and Applications, 248–255, Statistical Publishing Society, Calcutta).This work was partially supported by the Polish Academy of Sciences Grant No. MR I.1-2/2.

在前期工作得出的正构烷烃含量与浊点、冷滤点、凝点的定量关系模型基础上，选择柴油降凝剂的基团对柴油降凝剂分子结构进行了设计，得出了设计模型。结果表明，将含氮基团引入柴油降凝剂可以显著提高柴油降凝剂的性能。根据设计模型合成了一系列聚丙烯酸单酯和混合酯柴油降凝剂，并通过对柴油降凝剂的性能测试结果和自行设计的计算程序对设计模型进行了验证，结果表明，从柴油正构烷烃含量对柴油降凝剂的配比进行设计是可行的。     

Structure-activity relationships of pyrethroid insecticides. Part 2. The use of molecular dynamics for conformation searching and average parameter calculation

Summary Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed on a number of conformationally flexible pyrethroid insecticides. The results indicate that molecular dynamics is a suitable tool for conformational searching of small molecules given suitable simulation parameters. The structures derived from the simulations are compared with the static conformation used in a previous study. Various physicochemical parameters have been calculated for a set of conformations selected from the simulations using multivariate analysis. The averaged values of the parameters over the selected set (and the factors derived from them) are compared with the single conformation values used in the previous study.     

Design considerations and an example of application of an in-house made TG-MS interface

The design, the abilities and a characteristic application of an in-house made interface for combining thermogravimetry (TG) with mass spectrometry (MS) are presented. The TG-MS interface consists mainly of three co-axial tubes. The position of the intermediate tube was determined after calculation of the temperature profile at the TG furnace exit tube. The inner tube position was determined taking into consideration its protection against condensation of heavy molecules and the time delay for the transfer of the evolved gases. This interface allows either continuous sampling and transferring of the evolved gases from the TG to the MS or repetitive introduction of short sampling pulses of TG evolved gases to MS. The interface is capable of coupling various commercial instruments. In the present work two configurations of this interface are demonstrated. Finally an example of application of this interface on forest fuel pyrolysis is presented. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
