1. Análise termodinâmica de processos de reforma do metano e da síntese Fischer-Tropsch / Thermodynamic analysis of methane reforming processes and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis
The reactions of reforming of light hydrocarbons, especially natural gas, are chemical reactions of great importance and represent key steps for large scale production of hydrogen for use in hydrogenation reactions or fuel cells, or synthesis gas production, for application in the ammonia or methanol production, or to Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis. The Fisc

2. Análise estocástica do comportamento dinâmico de estruturas via métodos probabilísticos / Stochastic analysis of structural dynamic behavior via probabilistic methods
Esta dissertação tem como objetivo geral levar `a realidade industrial subsídios para a modelagem e análise de sistemas mecânicos lineares com variabilidade, assim como metodologias computacionais para quantificação de incertezas, para fins de aplicação em projeto. Neste sentido, foram realizados estudos sobre técnicas de modelagem e análise estoc

3. GEOMETRIC PROGRAMMING, CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM, AND THE ANTI-ENTROPY FUNCTION*
The culmination of this paper is the following duality principle of thermodynamics: maximum S = minimum S*. (1) The left side of relation (1) is the classical characterization of equilibrium. It says to maximize the entropy function S with respect to extensive variables which are subject to certain constraints. The right side of (1) is a new characterization

4. Statistical thermodynamics of amphiphile chains in micelles
The probability distribution of amphiphile chain conformations in micelles of different geometries is derived through maximization of their packing entropy. A lattice model, first suggested by Dill and Flory, is used to represent the possible chain conformations in the micellar core. The polar heads of the chains are assumed to be anchored to the micellar su

5. Bipartite pattern discovery by entropy minimization-based multiple local alignment
Many multimeric transcription factors recognize DNA sequence patterns by cooperatively binding to bipartite elements composed of half sites separated by a flexible spacer. We developed a novel bipartite algorithm, bipartite pattern discovery (Bipad), which produces a mathematical model based on information maximization or Shannon's entropy minimization princ
