We perform extensive Potts model simulations of 3D dry foam coarsening and we report reaching a scaling state. Starting with 2.25million bubbles, we have enough time for the transient to end and reach the scaling state; enough time in the scaling state to characterize its properties; and finally,...

We obtain the scaling states of three-dimensional soap foams by using equilibrium statistical mechanics techniques. We consider a phase space where each bubble is characterized by its center of mass position, volume, surface and number of faces. A Gibbs entropy function is then defined and, as...

We consider learning and generalization of real functions by a multi-interacting feed-forward network model with continuous outputs with invertible transfer functions. The expansion in different multi-interacting orders provides a classification for the functions to be learnt and suggests the...

We investigate the production of Tsallis entropy for the probability distribution of random walkers on a hypercube with a fraction p of allowed sites. We consider two regimes, p=1 and from p=12 until the percolation limit pc. In the first regime, we show that the entropy rate can be obtained...

People and technology are the two major ingredients considered to enhance benefits and provide opportunities in farming system. Perfect blending of these ingredients not only leads to maximize the agricultural production but also helps in improving livelihood. Openhanded efforts have been...

Considering the overall farming situation in developing countries particularly India it has been observed that the available options of efficient irrigation technologies are unable to cover up small and marginal farm holders due to lack of the applicability and acceptability in terms of their...

The land holding sizes in developing countries has been declining under continuous population pressure and average holding size is less than 2 ha. Small holders’, however, were able to increase the land productivity and farm income by adopting the high yielding modern varieties of dominant...

Fusion of cell tissues is an ubiquitous phenomenon and has important technological applications including tissue biofabrication. In this work we present experimental results of aggregates fusion using adipose derived stem cells (ADSC) and a three dimensional computer simulation of the process...

The influence of surface tension and size on rounding of cell aggregates is studied using chick embryonic cells and numerical simulations based on the cellular Potts model. Our results show exponential relaxation in both cases as verified in previous studies using 2D Hydra cell aggregates. The...
