The development of a mathematical model for the bioextraction of the critical raw material magnesium from mine waste using acidithiobacillus caldus by Raeburn, Yael

“…Using the previously de-termined mineral reactor conditions (0.5% solids loading, τ1 = 14.6 days, pHi = 1), complete extraction of magnesium was achieved at a stock reactor mean residence time (τs) ≥ 10.4 days, establishing an optimal threshold at Vs : 1.4V1. This set-up achieved the same performance as the CSTR with acid in the feed while eliminating the need for synthetic acid. pH control was achieved using a PI controller for the rate of acid addition, for which ITAE tuning parameters were optimised for both disturbance (Kc = 40.7 mol−1.L, τI = 12 h) and set-point changes (Kc = 20 mol−1.L, τI = 326 h). …”

Game-theoretic models for mergers and acquisitions by Van den Honert, Robin Charles

“…It is shown that for the purposes of identifying optimal negotiating strategies, the players strategies (described by parameters which are continuous in nature) can be adequately approximated by a sparse grid of discrete strategies, providing that these discrete strategies are chosen so as to achieve an even spread across the set of continuous strategies. …”
