A simple model of opinion formation dynamics in which binary-state agents make up their opinions due to the influence of agents in a local neighborhood is studied using different network topologies. Each agent uses two different strategies, the Sznajd rule with a probability q and the Galam...

Project monitoring is one of the important activities in the management of a project and its main objective is to supply the necessary information for proper control of the project based on the project plan. Monitoring of a project covers different issues related to costs, resources, problems,...

We introduce a path-sampling scheme that allows equilibrium state-ensemble averages to be computed by means of a biased distribution of non-equilibrium paths. This non-equilibrium method is applied to the case of the 38-atom Lennard-Jones atomic cluster, which has a double-funnel energy...

In this paper, a mathematical model is developed to simulate the transient phenomena in a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system. At present many electrochemical models are available to the fuel cell designers to capture steady state behavior by estimating the equilibrium voltage...
