The dynamics characteristic and effect of atoms and particulates ejected from the surface generated by nanosecond pulsed-laser ablation are very important. In this work, based on the consideration of the inelasticity and non-uniformity of the plasma particles thermally desorbed from a plane...

We propose a Gibbs point field model for the pattern of coronary capillaries in transverse histologic sections from human hearts, based on the physiology of oxygen supply from capillaries to tissue. To specify the potential energy function of the Gibbs point field, we draw on an analogy between...

Recent research has shown that in referendum elections, the presence of interdependence within voter preferences can lead to election outcomes that are undesirable and even paradoxical. However, most of the examples leading to these undesirable outcomes involve contrived voting situations that...

The purpose of the paper is to find out the borrowing cost premia for those individuals who are liquidity-constrained, or who are first-time buyers of real estate. The analysis uses the similarity of a leveraged purchase with the exercise of a call option to defer the purchase of the asset....

We analyze the Sznajd opinion formation model, where a pair of neighboring individuals sharing the same opinion on a square lattice convinces its six neighbors to adopt their opinions, when a fraction of the individuals is updated according to the usual random sequential updating rule...

Among an infinite number of possible folds, nature has chosen only about 1000 distinct folds to form protein structures. Theoretical studies suggest that selected folds are intrinsically more designable than others; these selected folds are unusually stable, a property called the designability...

We investigate the evolution of asexual populations subject to a large supply of deleterious mutations such that Muller's ratchet operates. In this regime, the accumulation of deleterious mutations takes place continuously with the resulting loss of the least-loaded class of individuals. In the...

Molecular dynamics simulations (MD) of dynamical properties of molten binary Ag-Cu alloy is presented at various temperature above the eutetic temperature. Atoms in the system have been modelled through an interatomic Lennard-Jones potential interaction. The structure, through the effective pair...

Dynamical heterogeneities (DH) in low density liquid SiO<Subscript>2</Subscript> have been investigated by molecular dynamics (MD) method. Simulations were done in the basic cube under periodic boundary conditions containing 3000 particles with the pair interatomic potentials, which have a weak electrostatic...</subscript>
