Theoretical And Experimental Evaluation Of Hysteresis In Atmospheric Chemistry, Theodore Alan Haigh Jan 1992

Theoretical And Experimental Evaluation Of Hysteresis In Atmospheric Chemistry, Theodore Alan Haigh

Dissertations and Theses

This treatise is a recapitulation of the theoretical and experimental study of hysteresis in atmospheric kinetics. The original problem arose from a theoretical study of a series of reactions for clean air. Upon evaluation a bistable equilibrium was predicted. The steady-state analysis had delineated a metastable region for the set of reactions. This bounded region is the hysteresis that this research project evaluated.
