Optimization of enzymatic saccharification of water hyacinth biomass for bio-ethanol: Comparison between artificial neural network and response surface methodology
Abstract Response surface methodology (RSM) is commonly used for optimising process parameters affecting enzymatic hydrolysis. However, artificial neural network–genetic algorithm hybrid model can also serve as an effective option, primarily for...

Molecular dynamics as a tool to study heterogeneity in zeolites – Effect of Na+ cations on diffusion of CO2 and N2 in Na-ZSM-5
Abstract Zeolites typically contain extra-framework cations to charge-compensate for trivalent Al atom substitutions in the SiO2 framework. These cations, such as Na+, directly interact with quadrupolar guest molecules, such as CO2 and N2, which...

Is smaller always stiffer? On size effects in supposedly generalised continua
Abstract Heterogeneous materials having constitutive behaviour described by more generalised continuum theories incorporating additional degrees of freedom such as couple stress, micropolar or micromorphic elasticity are expected to exhibit size...

Influence of Nusselt number on weight loss during chilling process
Abstract The coupling of the heat and mass transfer occurs on foods during chilling process. The temperature of foods is reduced while weight changes with time. Chilling time and weight loss involve the operating cost and are affected by the design...
