Diffusion-Limited Aggregation on Curved Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We develop a general theory of transport-limited aggregation phenomena occurring on curved surfaces, based on stochastic iterated conformal maps and conformal projections to the complex plane. To illustrate the theory, we use stereographic projections to

Estudo da influência dos particulados no fenômeno de agregação dos asfaltenos por espectrometria de varredura óptica

open access: yesQuímica Nova, 2011
The processing of national petroleums causes many operational problems due to the asphaltene aggregation phenomena. To evaluate the behavior of these phenomena, a study based on optical scan technique was carried out to understand the behavior of pure ...

Aggregation-induced emission of matrix-free graphene quantum dots via selective edge functionalization of rotor molecules

open access: yesScience Advances, 2023
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) are nanosized graphene derivatives with unique photoluminescence (PL) properties that have advantages in optoelectronic applications due to their stable blue light emission. However, aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) of GQDs

Dispersion state phase diagram of citrate-coated metallic nanoparticles in saline solutions

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Citrate-stabilized metallic colloids are key materials towards chemosensing and catalysis applications. Here the authors introduce a new theoretical model to estimate how the stoichiometry of citrate molecules absorbed onto spherical metallic ...

Aggregation bias and its drivers in large‐scale flood loss estimation: A Massachusetts case study

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, 2022
Large‐scale estimations of flood losses are often based on spatially aggregated inputs. This makes risk assessments vulnerable to aggregation bias, a well‐studied, sometimes substantial outcome in analyses that model fine‐grained spatial phenomena at ...

Numerical validation of a population balance model describing cement paste rheology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Rheology control is essential during the period in which cement and concrete pastes are encountered in the fresh state, due to the fact that it directly affects workability, initial placement and the structural performance of the hardened material ...

Physical mechanisms driving the reversible aggregation of Staphylococcus aureus and response to antimicrobials

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Formation of non-sessile, auto-aggregated cells of Staphylococcus aureus contributes to surface colonization and biofilm formation, hence play a major role in the early establishment of infection and in tolerance to antimicrobials.

Growing dynamics of Internet providers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
In this paper we present a model for the growth and evolution of Internet providers. The model reproduces the data observed for the Internet connection as probed by tracing routes from different computers.

Social Aggregation as a Cooperative Game [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A new approach for the description of phenomena of social aggregation is suggested. On the basis of psychological concepts (as for instance social norms and cultural coordinates), we deduce a general mechanism for the social aggregation in which ...

Aggregation pattern transitions by slightly varying the attractive/repulsive function. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Among collective behaviors of biological swarms and flocks, the attractive/repulsive (A/R) functional links between particles play an important role. By slightly changing the cutoff distance of the A/R function, a drastic transition between two distinct ...
