Dispersive Stabilization [PDF]
Ill posed linear and nonlinear initial value problems may be stabilized, that it converted to to well posed initial value problems, by the addition of purely nonscalar linear dispersive terms. This is a stability analog of the Turing instability.

The formation of microbial biofilms enables single planktonic cells to assume a multicellular mode of growth. During dispersion, the final step of the biofilm life cycle, single cells egress from the biofilm to resume a planktonic lifestyle. As the planktonic state is considered to be more vulnerable to antimicrobial agents and immune responses ...

Dispersion measures and dispersive orderings [PDF]
In this paper, the comparison of random variables according to the functionals of a general class of dispersion measures is characterized in terms of the dilation order. The Gini's mean difference is a particular member of this general class. In addition, a new and weaker order, called the second-order absolute Lorenz ordering, is introduced, and we ...

Consistency Characteristics of Dispersive Clays [PDF]
Dispersive soils are characterized by three features: (1) unstable structure, (2) they are readily flocculate in water, and (3) very erodible. The use of dispersed clay soils in hydraulic structures, dams and road dams can cause serious engineering ...

We model firm pricing given consumers follow simple reservation price rules. Such reservation rules are rational when consumers are sufficiently impatient. The equilibrium exhibits price dispersion in pure strategies, with lower price firms earning higher profits.

Dispersive Estimates for Full Dispersion KP Equations [PDF]
AbstractWe prove several dispersive estimates for the linear part of the Full Dispersion Kadomtsev–Petviashvili introduced by David Lannes to overcome some shortcomings of the classical Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equations. The proof of these estimates combines the stationary phase method with sharp asymptotics on asymmetric Bessel functions, which may be ...

FDTD analysis of magnetized plasma using an equivalent lumped circuit
The paper describes a new approach to electromagnetic analysis of magnetized plasma using finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. An equivalent lumped circuit describing an FDTD cell filled with plasma is developed and applied in the analysis. Such

Case Studies and Benchmark Examples for the Use of Grading Entropy in Geotechnics
The grading entropy concept can be adapted to the field of geotechnics, to establish criteria for phenomena such as particle packing, particle migration and filtering, through a quantified expression of the order/disorder in the grain size distribution ...

Studying the performance of urea and potassium sulfate fertilizers on water erosion of soils by using a rainfall simulator (Case study: Heidareh region of Hamedan) [PDF]
Water and wind erosions are the two main factors of soil degradation. But these two processes alone, without human intervention, cause natural erosion and pose little risks to soil.

Steeping and dispersive effects analysis of a couple of long-wave equations in dispersive media
Dispersive wave propagations are described by nonlinear models, such as regularized long waves and modified regularized long waves, where nonlinearity and dispersion are important aspects of wave evolution to model long-wave propagation in dispersive ...
