Morphological Computation: Nothing but Physical Computation [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
The purpose of this paper is to argue against the claim that morphological computation is substantially different from other kinds of physical computation. I show that some (but not all) purported cases of morphological computation do not count as specifically computational, and that those that do are solely physical computational systems. These latter

Linear analysis of Atwood number effects on shear instability in the elastic–plastic solids

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The evolution of shear instability between elastic–plastic solid and ideal fluid which is concerned in oblique impact is studied by developing an approximate linear theoretical model.

Safety and Effectiveness of Triple-Antenna Hepatic Microwave Ablation

open access: yesBioengineering
Microwave ablation is becoming a standard procedure for treating tumors based on heat generation, causing an elevation in the tissue temperature level from 50 to 60 °C, causing tissue death.

Quantum algorithms for computational nuclear physics

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
While quantum algorithms have been studied as an efficient tool for the stationary state energy determination in the case of molecular quantum systems, no similar study for analogical problems in computational nuclear physics (computation of energy ...

Associative Electron Detachment in Sprites

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
The balance of processes affecting electron density drives the dynamics of upper‐atmospheric electrical events, such as sprites. We examine the detachment of electrons from negatively charged atomic oxygen (O−) via collisions with neutral molecular ...

Aspects Of Computability In Physics

open access: yesWorkshop on Physics and Computation, 2005
This paper reviews connections between physics and computation, and explores their implications. The main topics are computational "hardness" of physical systems, computational status of fundamental theories, quantum computation, and the Universe as a computer.

Generalized One-Dimensional Periodic Potential Wells Tending to the Dirac Delta Potential

open access: yesPhysics
The solution of a quantum periodic potential in solid state physics is relevant because one can understand how electrons behave in a corresponding crystal.

Characteristics of turbulent mixing at late stage of the Richtmyer-Meshkov instability

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2017
We present a model for the mixing width, h, at self-similar stage of the Richtmyer-Meshkov instability (RMI). The derivation of the model is based on the formula of the growth rate of mixing width [Gao et al., Phys.

The physical limits of computing

open access: yesComputing in Science & Engineering, 2002
Many of the fundamental limits on information processing, from thermodynamics, relativity, and quantum mechanics, are only a few decades away. Novel physically motivated computing paradigms, such as reversible computing and quantum computing, may help in certain ways, but even they remain subject to some basic limits.
