The kinetics experiments include several aspects: kinetics process (dissolution
and precipitation); fluid systems; fluid flow and reaction; surface or fluid/solid
interface etc. The kinetics data consist of the properties of minerals and solutions,
experimental system, experiment conditions, fluid systems and reactor models
etc. Experiment al systems evolve with the time evolution, the continuously
changeable experiment environments and the data recording process, which lead
the data to be mass, excessive, imperfection (data lack), uncertain (system
of random noise data), scarcity (little and invaluable data) etc.
We have built the kinetic database system to describe natural and experimental systems, and it is a one to one mapping. And it has functions for organization, evaluation and prediction of chemical kinetics data.
It is of much complicated how to implement geochemical kinetics database through integrating Client/Server and Browser/Server technology based on Oracle DBMS. Two platforms are proposed, one is computing platform for scientific research, and the other is a remote managing platform. The platforms enhance the efficiency of the scientific research by convenient administration and application of experimental data. And proposed an efficient and effective solution to organize and manage kinetic data, and assure the consistency and security of the data through a checking mechanism.
The kinetics system adopts both “system control” method and “node control” method. To simplify the research, we let the mineral subsystem/fluid subsystem be a certain mineral/solution, and this is “system control” method; during experimental process, if only temperature is changed, then it is “node control” method.
Now
there are two main kinds of network patterns based on database system: Browser/Server
and Client/Server. Data in the kinetics database include basic experiment data,
graph data, user data and literature data. To realize the data isolation, table
spaces are built as follows:
