Design Space Definition Using a Variational Bayes' Approximation

Oct 19, 2011
Linas Mockus
The design space may be interpreted as the constrained region of the key manufacturing parameters space which provides assurance of quality of a drug given that manufacturing occurs in this region. The metric used to represent this assurance should not be deterministic, rather it should be stated...

Evaluation of Organic Rankine Cycle Geothermal Power Plant and Considerations

Oct 19, 2011
Kirtipal Barse
The objective of this work is to evaluate the feasibility of an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) power plant to generate electricity from low flow rates of a geothermal resource (~875 gpm) at low temperatures (T~100°C). A model of ORC was developed using HYSYS process simulator. DOE’s Cost of Renewable...

White Department of Chemical Engineering, University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC29208, USA Abstract The optimum charge rate for a lithium ion cell at each cycle is determined to maximize the useful life...

Scale and Bioreactor Design Translation for Rocking Bag Bioreactors

Oct 19, 2011
John Bowers
Scale and Bioreactor Design Translation for Rocking Bag Bioreactors. The translations of scale and bioreactor designs for disposable rocking bag bioreactors are currently performed intuitively or with trial an error approaches. Conditions are typically based on manufacturer recommendations or...
