“Kumar and Ramkrishna [292] presented a new framework for the discretization of PBEs, considering particle populations in discrete size ranges to be concentrated only in representative volumes. One of the main advantages of this approach is that the coarseness of the discretization can be varied freely, without any specific geometric type, thus having a general and flexible pattern.”

“The technique has been applied to binary and multiple breakages with power-law breakage rates, aggregation with constant, sum, and product kernel, and simultaneous breakage and aggregation. Comparison between analytical [293-295] and numerical results show good agreement.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
