Kinetic law information in library
The abstract kinetic law object represents a kinetic
law definition, which provides a mechanism for applying
a rate law to multiple reactions. The information in this object acts
as a mapping template for the reaction rate. The kinetic law definition
specifies a mathematical relationship that defines the rate at which
reactant species are produced and product species are consumed in
the reaction. The expression is shown in the Expression
property.
The species variables are defined in the SpeciesVariables
property,
and the parameter variables are defined in the ParameterVariables
property
of the abstract kinetic law object. For an explanation of how the
kinetic law definition relates to the kinetic law object, see KineticLaw object
.
Create your own kinetic law definition and add it to the kinetic
law library with the sbioaddtolibrary
function.
You can then use the kinetic law to define a reaction rate. To retrieve
a kinetic law definition from the user-defined library, first create
a root object using sbioroot
, then use the command get(rootObj.UserDefinedLibrary, 'KineticLaws')
.
See Property Summary for links to abstract kinetic law object property reference pages.
Properties define the characteristics of an object. For example,
an abstract kinetic law object includes properties for the expression,
the name of the law, parameter variables, and species variables. Use
the get
and set
commands to list object properties
and change their values at the command line. You can graphically change
object properties in the SimBiology® desktop.
