Wind tunnel experiments were conducted to investigate the influence of the flanged diffuser on the dynamic behavior of the blade of a 3 kW wind turbine shrouded with a flanged diffuser. The blade was fabricated by the skin of carbon fiber reinforced plastic and solid foam core. Tests were...

The effects of spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) and noise intensity on the temporal and spatial dynamics of Newman–Watts small-world neuronal networks are studied. Numerical results show that, an intermediate intensity of additive noise can optimize the dynamical response of the neural...

Both coherence resonance (CR) and stochastic resonance (SR) in a delayed bistable system driven by additive and multiplicative white noises and a weak harmonic excitation are studied by using the theory of two-state model. For the weak noise intensity and delayed feedback, the analytic...

We propose and study the collective behavior of a model of networked signaling objects that incorporates several ingredients of real-life systems. These ingredients include spatial inhomogeneity with grouping of signaling objects, signal attenuation with distance, and delayed and impulsive...

We study the influence of diversity on the dynamics of spiking in spatially extended systems with global or diffusive couplings, which is locally modeled by a map-based neuron. The variance of the system’s parameter D is used to measure the diversity. It is found that the regularity of spikes...

The resonance behaviors, such as coherence resonance and stochastic resonance, are studied in a delayed bistable system subject to correlated noises and a weak harmonic excitation. For weak noise intensities and small feedback gains, the analytic expressions of output spectrum and linear...

In many cell types, intracellular calcium is released from internal stores through calcium release channels which are distributed in clusters with a few tens of channels. Localized calcium release events, i.e. Ca2 + puffs, are subjected to stochastic channel dynamics and fluctuations of...

As a calcium oscillations system is in steady state, the effects of colored noise and noise delay on the system is investigated using stochastic simulation methods. The results indicate that: (1) the colored noise can induce coherence bi-resonance phenomenon. (2) there exist three peaks in the...

In view of same time delay τ in active and passive transmission processes with colored noises of intracellular Ca2+, by means of second-order algorithm for stochastic simulation colored noises, the normalized autocorrelation function (NAF) and the characteristic correlation time (CCT) of...

In this paper, by introducing a particular kind of parametric non-Gaussian noise (NGN) via the inositol triphosphate (IP3), we study the effect of the NGN’s deviation q from the Gaussian noise and its correlation time τ, as well as the cell number N on the intercellular Ca2+ oscillations in...
