Abstract Three instruments–Raman spectroscopy, attenuated total reflectance–Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and focused beam reflectance measurement–were used to detect sensor faults, mixing faults, and unanticipated chemistry in a system of multicomponent slurries.

Trust‐region filter algorithms utilizing Hessian information for gray‐box optimization
Abstract Optimizing industrial processes often involves gray‐box models that couple algebraic glass‐box equations with black‐box components lacking analytic derivatives. Such systems challenge derivative‐based solvers. The classical trust‐region filter (TRF) algorithm provides a robust framework but requires extensive parameter tuning and numerous ...

Abstract Antimicrobial resistance has become a major threat to human health, particularly for Gram‐negative bacteria such as Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Disruption of membrane integrity is regarded as a promising antimicrobial strategy that does not induce distinct drug resistance, while increasing the internalization of drug ...

3D investigation and modeling of the geometric effects on porosity in packed beds
Abstract In porous beds, physical boundaries restrict particle arrangement, leading to inhomogeneous porosity. This paper reports on the porosity profiles that are the result of geometric effects on monodisperse packed beds in cylindrical and cubic arrangements. Special focus is given to the influence of edges and corners in cubic geometries.

A trust‐region funnel algorithm for gray‐box optimization
Abstract Gray‐box optimization, where parts of optimization problems are represented by algebraic models while others are treated as black‐box models lacking analytic derivatives, remains a challenge. Trust‐region (TR) methods provide a robust framework for gray‐box problems through local reduced models (RMs) for black‐box components, but they are ...
