eginning with the current issue, this review will be

B broadened to emphasize and include many jour-

nals outside the area of chemical engineering. As such, the title of the review has been changed to correspond more closely to the material covered. These changes are motivated by the fact that the applied mathematical techniques outside as well as inside the-chemical engineering literature usually prove of specific interest in analyzing and solving problems. Obviously the area of applied mathematics is a most extensive one and care must be taken in separating the highly mathematical material from that which may have application in the next few years. At the same time, certain areas, such as optimal control theory, are covered in depth in other reviews in this series and are included in only a minimal sense here. The subject areas have been divided into suitable sections so that, along with the titles of each article, it is not necessary to develop tables covering specific articles. T h e articles and books listed cover roughly the period July 1967 to July 1968. General

Two new journals of interest to this review have recently been initiated. They are Theoretical Foundations of Chemical Engineering as a translation from the Russian by the Consultants Bureau and the Journal of Optimization Theory and Applications. I n addition, McGraw-Hill under its Schaum’s Outline Series has brought out two large-size paperbacked books of interest. One (75.4) deals with linear algebra and the other (78.4) with numerical analysis. These books are surprisingly advanced, although the depth of coverage is not excessive. Of primary interest is the extremely large number of detailed examples. A highly mathematically oriented book dealing with aspects of the Laplace transform has been published (ZA), and a n excellent text in the fluid mechanics area has come out (23.4). T h e latter book will be of interest 42

to academicians for use in a n undergraduate transport course. A book on systems analysis, which includes such items as signal flow analysis, weighting patterns and filters, signal generators, frequency-domain representation, and a n analysis of zeroes and poles, has been developed (9A). While written from the electrical engineering point of view, the book contains much of interest to the chemical engineer. Knuth ( 7 7A) has developed a n outstanding book dealing with the mathematical foundations of algorithms and data structures. Of immediate interest to the chemical engineer is the recent book (70A) which summarizes a wide variety of computer experiences a t Michigan over the last five years. Details of the simulation and analysis of many physical systems related directly to chemical engineering make this book a must for those interested in these topics. Chemical Engineering Models

There have been a number of interesting papers in the last year dealing with the modeling or analysis of models developed for systems with chemical engineering relevance. These include structuring a number of systems in terms of signal flow graphs (4B, 5B) and the aspects of simulation of chemical reactors (723, 27B). The effect of mixing on the performance of tubular reactors has also been described (9B). A superb series of three papers analyzed very carefully all the theoretical and computational aspects of the design of reactor with back mixing (75B). The packed bed reactor has also received specific analysis (3B, 8B, 77B). I n particular, Crider and Foss ( 3 B ) were able to obtain a n analytical solution for this extremely complicated type reactor by assuming a specific form of the chemical rate equation. Other authors (7OB) analyzed the laminar flow of a reactant in a tubular reactor. Of concern was the numerical evaluation of a n integral kernel which arises in the analysis. Other works of interest in terms of model analysis were those dealing with gas absorption columns (73B), with

distillation towers (77B,20B), with flow in porous media (74B),and with chromatographic columns (72B). Residence-lime Analysis

Work has continued a t a fast pace in applying various aspects of residence-time and moment analysis to processes. This work involves, as a n example, the probing of a system model with specific inputs such as a pulse or step function. By analyzing the input and resulting output waves, it is possible to determine such items as the mean and variance of the wave form. These can then be related to the parameters in the model. Such a n approach or variations on same have been used for crystallizer behavior (4C, 74C), for systems with internal reflux (75C), for surface renewal models (5C), for porous systems with stagnant zones such as a liquid irrigated packed bed (7C), for fluid bed systems (2C, SC, 73C), for fixed beds and chromatographic columns (3C, SC), for a n absorption column (70C), for mass transfer across interfaces (IC), and to analyze various multistage or recycle reactors (5C, 7 IC,72C). Periodic Systems

Considerable activity has been evidenced recently in the nonsteady-state or periodic operation of many chemical engineering systems. These usually are systems forced into oscillation by periodic inputs in a n effort perhaps to improve the average yield of a chemical reactor over that associated with a steady-state type of operation. As a n illustration, certain authors ( 5 0 , 7 0 ) were interested in analyzing polymerization-type reactions. Others (30) discussed the behavior of countercurrent processes and more specifically the stage efficiency of a distillation column ( 6 0 ) . T h e periodic behavior of diffusion and transport systems has been analyzed ( 7 0 , 2 0 ) , and the velocity of a free particle suspended in a n oscillating fluid was also studied ( 4 0 ) . T h e paper by Wilhelm and coworkers ( 3 7 0 )is an example of the superb VOL 6 0

work which can be done in this area from a n analysis and physical implementation point of view. Parameter Estimation

Since the advent of the digital computer there has been considerable interest in the parameter estimation and model discrimination problem. Here the question is how to fit (in a least square sense) parameters in a model or series of models to experimental data so as to find the “best ” model. I n this sense it does not make any significant difference if the model is linear or nonlinear. By contrast, one can change the problem to specify a linear model and seek the parameters in a transfer function when noise corrupts the experimental data. Because of the importance of this area of investigation, there have been a number of interesting papers in the past year. The well-known Efroyson regression procedure has been extended (4E), and certain aspects of the estimation method itself have been examined (74E). The vast majority of applications have been in kinetic systems where rate constants or exponential rate factors are estimated. Heinken et al. ( 7 E ) , in a superb paper, analyzed some enzymatic type reactions, while others (IOE, 75E, 76E, 79E, 27E) analyzed various aspects of homogeneous and heterogeneous reaction systems. Some experimental strategies which are useful in the estimation and modeling algorithm have also been presented (73E). Since parameter estimation of nonlinear systems actually proceeds by a successive series of linearizations, it would seem most feasible to use the algorithm of quasilinearization. This method is extremely versatile and computer oriented; it solves sets of linear equations in the to-be-determined parameters. Bellman et al. (ZE, 3 E ) and Lee (77E, 78E) have presented extensive details in this area. As an illustration, Lee determines the Peclet Number and the reaction rate constant for a tubular reactor system. Other interesting papers in the estimation area have been presented (5E, 8E, 273). The last two deal with the identification of purely linear systems. Finally we should point out that in the paper by Lapidus and Bard (76E) there are details not only of purely parameter estimation, but also of computer directed experiments to aid the estimation and model discrimination. This has importance in various aspects of on-line control systems. Analytical Solution of Equations

In this section we mention papers which have used analytical mathematics to solve the problem under investigation. This is taken to mean closed form or asymptotic solutions as distinct from numerical solutions. As expected, the papers cover the entire range from linear algebraic equations through ordinary differential equations and on through partial differential equations. The by-now classical linear algebra-type analysis of Prater and Wei on linear reaction systems has been extended (SF, 29F). I n the latter case, consideration is given to the handling of irreversible rate steps by de44

composition into substeps while the former work deals with multicomponent problems. Other authors (27F, 33F) were concerned with solving the ordinary differential equations associated with catalyst effectiveness factors and the solutions relating to some form of chemical kinetic systems (ZF, 73F, ZOF). The differential equations associated with a spray column heat exchanger have also been analyzed (22F). I n the area of solving partial differential equations, there were a number of papers dealing with either fixed bed or chromatographic (ion exchange) multicomponent column behavior (5F, 76F, 27F, 3527). Others have considered adsorption kinetics in fixed beds (25F, 3ZF). Solutions of problems involving some form of heat transfer have been presented by many authors (3F, 9F, 77F, 36F). In the multicomponent transport and diffusion-type system, interesting solutions have been presented (74F, 78F), and a Stefan-type system with a moving boundary between phases has been analyzed (34F). Solutions in systems involving gas-solid operations, such as fluid beds and single and multiple particles in a secondary fluid, have been reported ( I F , 6F, 7F, 23F). Other works of interest are those (72F) dealing with the Hamilton- Jacobi equation of mechanics and optimal control and (7OF) dealing with propagation of flames. Optimization

The field of optimization continues to generate a vast flow of research papers which span the spectrum from the very theoretical to the very practical. Work in the linear programming area continues (6G, 30G, 44G), with the theme being to solve certain special problems. A recent book (78G) is of interest in this area as well as in the nonlinear programming area. Other special methods such as integer programming ( 7 7G), quadratic programming (35G), and the more recent geometric programming (24G, 32G, 33G) have also received further attention. The Fibonacci search (25G) and the golden block search (7G) methods have also been investigated. The gradient, Newton, and the Davidon approaches to optimization of multidimensional systems have been investigated by many authors. A detailed investigation of the first-order necessary conditions has been presented (79G), as well as a conjugate gradient with linear constraints approach (76G). The use of the penalty function approach for handling constraints has been investigated (3G, 73G), as well as a means of setting standards for measuring the efficiency of gradient methods (77G). Davidon (7G) has extended his original work, while another paper has been concerned with removing singular matrices which may have come up in the calculation (ZG). Other authors (5G, 46G) have detailed extensively all aspects of the Newton algorithm.

AUTHOR Leon Lapidus is Professor and Chairman of the Department of Chemical Engineering, Princeton University, Princeton, iV. J. T h i s is the author’sJrst year to compile the Fundamentals Annual Review on Applied Mathematics.

Finally, a recent book (42G) and two papers (40G, 47G) may become landmarks in covering all aspects of optimization. I n addition, three excellent books (27G, 37G, 38G) contain many aspects of optimization which are of direct interest to the chemical engineer. In the applications area there has been work on a twoderivative method for optimizing reactors (27G, 39G) and on a gradient method for temperature control in reactors (72G, 28G). Other papers deal with the decomposition method to design heat exchangers (36G), with heat exchanger systems with recycle (37G), with a polymerization reaction in a series of reactors (34G), with the use of adjoint variables for chemical reactors (8G, 22G), and to the design of a catalytic cracking system via the use of multilevel optimization (4G). Dynamic Programming

While the use of Bellman’s dynamic programming algorithm fits within the area of optimization, we have considered it here as a special topic. The use of this algorithm continues in almost every area of investigation from that of making managerial decisions (72H) to pattern recognition (3H, 4 H ) , to optimizing plant expansion ( 7 H ) , to the optimal design of evaporators (77H), and to minimizing the loss of an oxidation product (70H). Other papers of interest deal with branched allocation systems ( 7 H ) , with aspects of random replacement and maintenance policies (73H), with the optimal location and construction of nuclear fuel plants (23H), and with the optimal behavior of adiabatic bed reactors (771’3). A graphical representation of the dynamic programming algorithm in reactor problems ( 9 H ) has been presented, and a way to reconstruct the dynamic programming algorithm for parallel computers (8H) has been outlined. I n terms of the specific computational use of dynamic programming, a n excellent survey paper (74H) has been published. An extension of the normal algorithm by Larson has resulted in a book (75H) and a slight controversy on the specific advantages of extrapolation and interpolation in the use of the method (76H). An application of the method via a forward dynamic programming algorithm has been presented (20H),as well as some interesting results on decreasing the dimensionality in optimal control systems (6H). Stability

One of the more interesting mathematical problems which the chemical engineer encounters is the specification of the stability properties of a reaction or other system. T h e work of Amundson and coworkers, including Luss in particular, illustrates the superb mathematical and computational results which can be obtained. Necessary and sufficient conditions for stability have been determined for packed bed reactors (291) and for fluid beds (271). The use of the maximum principle for parabolic equations has been applied to tubular reactors with diffusion (201). Sufficiency conditions have been developed for specifying when unique steady states exist in a reaction system (221). Other

papers in the area of stability of catalyst particles (76Z) and of extractive tubular reactors (791) have been published. As an alternate approach, one may turn to the use of Liapunov’s method which hopefully bypasses almost all computation in establishing stability. A review of interest in this area (721) has been published, as well as a discussion of the different types of stability ( 7 7 1 ) and new theoretical results (241, 261, 331). Another review has covered the stability of distributed parameter systems (311). The use of Krasovskii’s theorem has been detailed (781), as well as the application of the Liapunov functional to distributed parameter systems of interest to chemical engineers (41). Other approaches to the stability of fluid dynamic systems (91, 70Z, 251, 28Z), to spherical catalyst particles (321), to distributed parameter systems via phase plane analysis (30Z), to fluid beds (21, 31), and to Marangoni films (771) have been presented. Optimal Control

Mathematical and computational progress continues a t a tremendous rate in the optimal control area. Here we mention only a limited number of these references and leave further discussion to another review in this series. At least five books of interest have been published. One of these (37J) is an outstanding introduction to the whole area of matrix manipulations, stability, and optimal control. Another ( 2 5 J ) contains both theory and computational results of direct interest to chemical engineers. A third ( 8 J ) deals with the control of distributed parameter systems. The final two books ( 6 J , 26J) are highly mathematically oriented. A recent review ( 7 9 4 of progress in the optimal control area is also of interest. Interesting papers in the optimal control area have been published dealing with a matrix minimum (maximum) principle ( 2 J ) and on the computational aspects of such methods as quasilinearization and the second variation (24J, 34J, 35J, 3 7 J ) . Consideration has been given to the so-called inverse control problem ( 7 4 J ) , to sensitivity considerations ( 9 J , 22J), and to optimum catalyst profiles in tubular reactors ( 3 8 J ) . The time optimal control of a batch distillation system (77J) has also been investigated. Extensions of the normal optimal control case to the variable time delay in the state and control have been made (5J, 78J, 3 6 J ) , as well as some most interesting work on distributed parameter systems (3J, 72J, 75J, 20J) 27J). Numerical

General. There have been at least seven excellent numerical analysis books in the past year. Included are a book on numerical integration ( 3 K ) which is absolutely first rate in detail and mathematical level, a book on the asymptotic solution of differential equations ( 2 K ) ,and an excellent book covering many up-to-date aspects of numerical analysis (77K),and two general introductory volumes (8K, 9K) (8K has 1130 pages and 9K has 750 VOL. 6 0

pages) have been published which are equivalent to the Chemical Engineer’s Handbook but which deal with aspects of applied mathematics. A number of authors have published papers dealing with discretization methods (involving discrete-type approximations such as arise in many areas of numerical analysis). Convergence and stability of these methods were the theme of two papers (75K, 78K),while another paper was concerned with accelerating convergence by extrapolation to the limit (72K). Aspects of Romberg quadrature (the modern way to evaluate an integral numerically), such as error bounds (76K) and the effect of singularities ( 6 K ) , have been published. Also a monumental paper has been published on how linear programming can be used to solve ordinary and partial differential equations, matrix problems, and many others ( 7 4 K ) . This is an outstanding applied mathematics paper which cuts across the board area of analysis. Approximation. The work associated with approximating analytical functions or experimental data via some type of polynomial continues at a fast pace. I n the last year two areas have received attention, these being the use of spline functions and the use of Chebyshev polynomials. The spline function approximation, named after the use of a draftsman’s drawing tool, has developed quickly in the past five years as an alternative to normal polynomial approximation. This has culminated in a book (2L) by some of the pioneer researchers in the area. Other papers have applied the method to approximating thermodynamic data (7L),to the interpolation features (75L), to the convergence properties (3L),and to use, via least squares fitting, as a smoothing device (72L). A final paper (13L)has indicated the connection between the spline function and the Chebyshev approximation. In addition to the paper (73L) on the Chebyshev equioscillation polynomials above, there has been work associated with polynomial fitting (14L) and with the errors in such polynomial approximations ( 7 7L). In addition, and as part of the Handbook Series of Approximation in Numerical Mathematics, a broad-based article on Chebyshev methods has been presented (77L). Other material in the approximation area which do not fall within the two categories above are an excellent book (8L), some interesting work on Pade approximations ( 4 4 5L), and some features of smoothing and differentiating of experimental data via least squares fitting (6L)’ Linear algebra. In this area of numerical analysis dealing with the solution of linear algebraic equations, two new books were published (72M, 38M). The first, in particular, details the modern aspects of scaling and error monitoring for calculating such items as the inverse matrix. This short book should be read by all workers interested in numerical analysis. Papers of interest detail the solution of the simultaneous equations when the coefficient matrix has a special form such as a band matrix (34M, 35M) or is 46

block symmetric ( 9 M ) . Others are concerned with solving an over-determined system via Chebyshev meththe use of mathematical programming to ods (3M), solve singular systems ( 2 9 M ) , the tridiagonalization of a symmetric matrix (ZOM), and the evaluation of catalyst effectively factors by means of the well-known Thomas algorithm (73M). Some authors have been concerned with the pseudoinverse which can be applied computationally to singular and rectangular matrices. This has extensive application in multivariable curve fitting and optimal control. Computational aspects have been presented ( 2 ? M ,32M, 33M, 37M),as well as all necessary proofs and relations (77M) and the use for generalized interpolation (75M). Along the same lines, one author has shown how to bound the solution of the Riccati matrix equation ( 2 M ) which may use the pseudo-inverse and another has detailed features of the monotonicity and stability of this special equation ( 8 M ) . Papers have also been published for evaluating eigenvalues and eigenvectors. In the Handbook Series on Linear Algebra in Numerical Mathematics, authors have detailed the evaluation of a symmetric eigenproblem ( 6 M ) , of the Jacobi method (TOM), and of features of the very promising QR-QL algorithms ( 6 M , 28M). The use of Graeffe’s method has been extended (27M), and features of calculating the maximum eigenvalue have been detailed (74M). Finally, the eigenvalues and -vectors have been calculated for the infamous Hilbert matrix of order 3 to 1 0 ( T I M ) . These last results should prove extremely useful to test computer matrix routines. Three authors have analyzed the normal equations or some variation of same arising in least squares analysis ( 5 M , 7 M , 76M). The first of these ( 5 M ) is concerned with special two-dimensional data and the third ( 7 6 M ) presents extensive computational details comparing various methods such as Gram-Schmidt. Ordinary differential equations. The solution of nonlinear ordinary differential equations continues to be of interest. I n general terms, one author has assessed the relative merits of most well-known methods ( 7 7 N ) , another has questioned the use of random numbers to simulate round-off error (28:V), and another has investigated parallel integration methods ( Z O N ) . Other authors have detailed the use of the backward stable Euler method (7:V), the solution of boundary-layer problems (27N), and the use of finite differences (22N). Finally, a detailed numerical comparison has been made using transient staged operation equations of most of the more sophisticated methods of integration ( 6 N ) . Runge-Kutta, or single-step, methods of integration have been analyzed in implicit form (2N-4:V) and when large Lipschitz constants (small step sizes) are involved (77N).One author has presented a new fifth-order Runge-Kutta equation ( 7 4 N ) , while another has presented a sixth-order equation with an extended range of stability (78N). Of particular interest to anyone in this field is the superb paper by Rosser (25N) showing what can really be done in the Runge-Kutta area. Finally,

79 first-order equations have been integrated by means of the classical Runge-Kutta equation (27N). Two authors have presented interesting analyses of predictor-corrector approaches. I n the first, the PECE (predict, evaluate, correct, evaluate) niethod (7SN) was analyzed in detail, whereas in the second only the PEC method (73N) was considered. We also note an excellent paper on stiff differential equations (widely separated time constants) ( 8 N ) and another which uses spline functions as the basis for integration in place of the usual polynomial (79N). These latter results are disappointing since the approach yields the familiar (trapezoidal, Milne) formulas. Partial differential equations. A revised and updated book by Richtmeyer (280) on the solution of partial differential equations has been published during the past year. This book will remain a classic in the field both from the mathematics and the analysis points of view. Papers dealing with the solution of partial differential equations arising from physical systems have been published. These include the parametric pumping system ( 3 7 0 ) ) the inviscid and viscous equations of a compressible gas (80, 2 9 0 ) , Poiseuille-type flow (200))flux components in potential flow (330)’ and the adiabatic fixed bed reactor ( 2 3 0 ) . I n terms of specific classes of partial differential equations, we first turn to work on parabolic equations. Rachford, in two superb papers, has considered the effect of rounding errors in parabolic equations with one space dimension (260) and in multiple space dimensions (250). These papers are pioneers in the field. Other authors have analyzed the biharmonic equation (760, 370))a Stefan-type problem ( 2 0 ) )the case of degenerate parabolic partial differential equations (30))the spherical symmetric diffusion equation ( 6 0 ) )and the influence of boundaries on Laplace’s equation (780, 3 8 0 ) . Further work dealing with orthogonal collocation ( 3 2 0 ) ) the Crank-Nicholson implicit method (700) and with convergence rates of finite difference representations (780) have appeared. An interesting paper has been published on estimating the truncation error in fourth-order elliptic equations (390) associated with a general shaped body. I n the area of hyperbolic partial differential equations, some extremely interesting work has been detailed. I n one case, the author combined nebencharacteristics with extrapolation methods to facilitate the numerical solution ( 3 6 0 ); in another, extrapolation methods by themselves were analyzed (730); and another has established explicit and implicit formulas for two-space variables and any boundary conditions (740,750). From an applications point of view, there are two papers (270, 3 4 0 ) dealing with integrations along the characteristic curves of packed bed and other-type reactors. Since most solutions of partial differential equations are iterative in nature, the SOR (successive over-relation) and AD1 (alternate direction implicit) iterative techniques have been carefully investigated. The use of Chebyshev polynomials to accelerate SOR has been de-

tailed (770, 770)’ while AD1 methods have been analyzed in general (220) and for hyperbolic equations (720). Finally, methods have been presented for the optimum SOR for Laplace’s equation (270) and for accelerating SOR with elliptic equations (240). Boundary-value problems. Boundary-value problems occur in an overwhelming number of physical systems such as those which include diffusion in almost any context. Both ordinary and partial differential equations may have the split type of boundary conditions, and most of the work on optimal control by means of maximum principle (or any other method) usually leads to split conditions on the state and adjoint variables. As a result, this is an area of continuing analytical and numerical investigation. The past year has seen the publication of an outstanding book in this area (6P). Not only is the mathematical level very high, but extensive discussion is given to most of the known methods for solving boundary value problems. This book is highly recommended. Papers in the area include one which extends Picard’s method (75P),one which is concerned with methods for converting the boundary-value problem to oriented linear flow graphs (4P) in any coordinate system, and another which is an extension of previous papers (74P). I n the latter case, work is described which is based on NewtonRaphson-Kantrovich methods which iterate on the unknown boundary conditions. As described, this last paper has certain features which are analogous to those used in invariant-imbedding as developed by Bellman. This particular technique has been described in terms of solving problems in unit operations (7P), and for solving boundary layer equations (77P)and tubular reactor systems (QP,70P)which involve split boundary conditions. Much of this work is summarized in the recent book (8P) which contains extensive numerical results on invariant-imbedding of direct interest to the chemical engineer. Data analysis. This section may be thought of as including many aspects of statistical analysis of data. Thus, work has been detailed on the analysis of size-age distributions (704)) on gravity decantation ( S Q ) , and on irrigated packed towers (24). However, while these are interesting, the exciting work in this area is the recently developed fast Fourier transform. Here we have a significant computational tool which facilitates signal analysis such as power spectrum analysis and filter simulation by digital computers. Mathematically, this fast transform is an efficient computational tool for developing the discrete Fourier transform of a series of data samples or time series. As such it should have application to many areas of chemical engineering research but, to date, it has evolved in the electrical engineering area. One recent paper (44) details the complete history of the development of the method, while others ( 3 Q , 94) stress the computation features. Another paper ( 7 4 ) deals with a specific application, of the Fourier transform, and finally there is a development suitable for a parallel processing mode of computer operation (8Q). VOL. 6 0

Root location. Here we are concerned with methods for finding the roots of complex highly dimensional nonlinear algebraic equations. Alternately the material has application in optimization problems where the first necessary conditions are satisfied. Saaty (9R) has published a book in this area which provides excellent coverage of all aspects of nonlinear equations. This book is highly recommended for its mathematical depth of coverage. Papers have been published dealing with a random technique for locating on speeding up the convergence of the wellroots (4R), known polynomial Bairstow method (ZR), on an iterative method for locating roots based on bilinear forms which can handle complex and repeated roots (8R), and on a technique for terminating any iterative rootlocating method ( I R ) . Other work of interest directly to the chemical engineer is the use of a nested set of single variable equations to solve complex chemical equilibrium problems (TOR),
