A theoretical model for the relative gas diffusion coefficient in dry porous media embedded with a Y-shaped fractal-like tree network is presented under the combination of bulk diffusion and Knudsen diffusion. The proposed model is expressed as a function of the length ratio, the diameter ratio,...

The evolution of cooperation is studied in lattice-structured populations, in which each individual who adopts one of the following strategies ‘always defect’ (ALLD), ‘tit-for-tat’ (TFT), and ‘always cooperate’ (ALLC) plays the repeated Prisoner’s Dilemma game with its neighbors...

We investigate by mean-field analysis and extensive simulations the effects of social impact on epidemic spreading in various typical networks with two types of nodes: active nodes and passive nodes, of which the behavior patterns are modeled according to the social impact theory. In this study,...

One of the purposes of pedestrian studies is to evaluate the effects of a proposed program on the pedestrian facilities before its implementation. In order to evaluate the level of service (LOS) of a pedestrian facility, a microscopic model is built to simulate the process of pedestrian crossing...
