In this section, the algorithm used for calculating seawater electrical conductivity from temperature, salinity, and pressure is first presented, and then the data serving as input is described.
Experimental results indicate that with an accurate model of the process energy balance, in which, for example, the recycle pump energy input is described, the Kalman filter approach is found to provide excellent prediction of conversion, for both high and low conversions, for this pilot-plant reactor system.
Recurrent electrical input is described by gse, where gs represents the strength of recurrent connectivity.
In this model, each cell's input is described by: 1) a stimulus filter (STRF); and 2) a post-spike filter, which captures dependencies on the neuron's spiking history.
The velocity modulated input is described in more detail in 'Velocity modulated input current'.
In queuing theory, the distribution of time to complete a sequence of tasks in a system with Poisson input is described by the Erlang distribution.
The rate of release from the lung (R t)) of the sequestered propofol after the bolus input is described by: (11) R bolus (t) = (1/ T) Dose frdose exp(- t / T) This sequestration was incorporated into the PBPK model simply by dividing the bolus input into two non-sequestered components: 1) A bolus input of Dose × (1-frdose); and 2) An exponential input of total amount = Dose × frdose.
Relation of output to input is described as the multiplication of input X by the system function G to result the output Y.
A full list of scenarios is available in the Appendix, and the scenario inputs are described in more detail in the next section.
