Prediction of Vesicoureteral Reflux by Ultrasonography and Renal Scan in Children
Background. In recent studies, renal ultrasonography and dimercapto-succinic acid (DMSA) scan have a role in predicting vesicoureteral reflux in children with febrile urinary tract infection (UTI). Materials and Methods .

Generalised model for heteroazeotropic batch distillation with variable decanter hold-up [PDF]
A general model of batch heteroazeotropic distillation is proposed. Both liquid phases present in the decanter can be refluxed or withdrawn as distillate, their hold-up can be increased, decreased or kept constant, as well. By assuming maximal separation,

The Role of Pepsinogenes and Some Intestinal Hormones in Pathogenesis of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease [PDF]
80 patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) were examined. The diagnosis of GERD was based on the history of the disease, complaints of patients, the results of daily monitoring of pH in the lower third of the esophagus, data of ...

Optimal Control of Reflux Ratio for Batch Distillation.
バッチ蒸留では, ユーティリティーコスト最小, 製品量最大という評価関数のもとで還流比の最適軌道が存在する.このような最適軌道をポントリャギンの最大原理により算出する為には, 膨大な繰り返し計算が必要であった.本報では, ハミルトン随伴関数の初期値を修正してゆく計算法を提案する。この計算法と最近のコンピュータの進歩により実時間で最適軌道を計算し還流比を制御できるようになる。また, 最適還流比を状態変数の関数として表した制御テーブルをあらかじめ作成しておく事もできる.これらの制御法は評価関数に対して真に最適な操作となる.

Control of a train of high purity distillation columns for efficient production of 13C isotopes [PDF]
It is well-known that high-purity distillation columns are difficult to control due to their ill-conditioned and strongly nonlinear behaviour. The fact that these processes are operated over a wide range of feed compositions and flow rates makes the ...
