Hybrid systems combine continuous behavior evolution specified by differential equations
with discontinuous changes specified by discrete event switching logic. Numerical …

The dynamic behavior of processing systems exhibits both continuous and significant
discrete aspects. Process simulation is therefore a combined discrete/continuous simulation …

A pressure-swing adsorption process, which uses zeolite 13X as an adsorbent to recover
and sequester carbon dioxide from mixture gas (nitrogen and carbon dioxide), is …

Some of the key issues associated with the equation-oriented approach to process
modelling and simulation are examined. It is argued that most processes and operations of …

While optimality conditions for optimal control problems with state constraints have been
extensively investigated in the literature the results pertaining to numerical methods are …

A new algorithm and software for numerical sensitivity analysis of differential-algebraic
equations are presented. The staggered corrector method proposed has lower …

Herein, we developed an integrated process for H 2 recovery and CO 2 capture from the tail
gas of hydrogen plants. The front-sector system (cryogenic, membrane, and compressor …

This paper discusses important hybrid aspects of chemical processing plants. It is outlined
that discrete phenomena occur both on the physical level and in the control of these plants …

This interdisciplinary guide explores various types of modeling methods available for
dynamical systems. It begins with the general concepts, representations, and philosophy of …

Hybrid (discrete/continuous) systems exhibit both discrete state and continuous state
dynamics which interact to such a significant extent that they cannot be decoupled and must …
