Computer-Aided Modeling of Reactive Systems
By: Stewart, Warren E.; Caracotsios, Michael
Published by: Wiley-Interscience

Learn to apply modeling and parameter estimation tools and strategies to chemicalprocesses using your personal computer. This book introduces readers to powerful parameter estimation and computational methods for modeling complex chemical reactions and reaction processes. It presents useful mathematical models, numerical methods for solving them, and statistical methods for testing and discriminating candidate models with experimental data. Topics covered include:. Chemical reaction models. Chemical reactor models. Probability and statistics. Bayesian estimation. Process modeling with single-response data. Process modeling with multi-response data. Computer software (Athena Visual Studio) is available via a related Web site http://www.athenavisual.com enabling readers to carry out parameter estimation based on their data and to carry out process modeling using these parameters. As an aid to the reader, an appendix of example problems and solutions is provided. Computer-Aided Modeling of Reactive Systems is an ideal supplemental text for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in chemical engineering courses, while it also serves as a valuable resource for practitioners in industry who want to keep up to date on the most current tools and strategies available. more...

Medical Biochemistry
By: Rao, N.Mallikarjuna
Published by: New Age International

The 2nd edition of the book is revised, updated and efforts are made to enhance usefulness of the book for various courses. New subject matter is added to each chapter. Further this freshly updated 2nd edition contains five new chapters. They are: Biochemistry of apoptosis Biochemistry of cell cycle Biochemistry of Blood Organ function tests Biochemical Technology Apart from updating each chapter, new unsolved problems are added and in references books, reviews, research articles are included. Thus, the 2nd edition of the book contains 34 chapters, 536 references, 191 essay-type questions, 420 short-answer questions, 111 multiple-choice questions (MCQs), 128 fill in the blanks and 14 cases. Most striking in this edition is inclusion of biochemical aspects of diseases and disease-causing organisms common to tropical (developing) countries. more...
