Conceptual Models of Entrainment, Jet Lag, and Seasonality
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Understanding entrainment of circadian rhythms is a central goal of chronobiology. Many factors, such as period, amplitude, Zeitgeber strength, and daylength, govern entrainment ranges and phases of entrainment.

Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2022 An individual’s early interactions with their environment are thought to be largely passive; through the early years, the capacity for volitional control develops.

Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2014 The effect of weak chaotic forcing on stable periodic oscillations is investigated in this work. Consider a system of ordinary differential equations, which supports an asymptotically stable limit cycle. Suppose it is perturbed by a small term driven by a chaotic trajectory produced by another system, called a chaotic generator.

Aerosol-boundary layer interaction modulated entrainment process
npj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2022 Aerosol-boundary layer interactions play an important role in affecting atmospheric thermodynamics and air pollution. As a key factor in dictating the development of the boundary layer, the entrainment process in the context of aerosol-boundary layer ...

Human chronotypes from a theoretical perspective. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The endogenous circadian timing system has evolved to synchronize an organism to periodically recurring environmental conditions. Those external time cues are called Zeitgebers. When entrained by a Zeitgeber, the intrinsic oscillator adopts a fixed phase

Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2017 Mapping during ventricular tachycardia (VT) aims to elucidate mechanism, describe myocardial propagation, and identify the origin and critical regions of VT that can be targeted for ablation, most commonly with radiofrequency ablation. Most VTs in structural heart disease are due to macro-reentry in and around scar. A combination of mapping techniques,

Doing Duo – a Case Study of Entrainment in William Forsythe’s Choreography Duo
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Entrainment theory focuses on processes in which interacting (i.e. coupled) rhythmic systems stabilize, producing synchronization in the ideal sense, and forms of phase related rhythmic coordination in complex cases. In human action, entrainment involves

Competing Effects of Droplet Sedimentation and Wind Shear on Entrainment in Stratocumulus
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2019 The joint effect of droplet sedimentation and wind shear on cloud top entrainment in stratocumulus is investigated with direct numerical simulations. Although it is well understood that droplet sedimentation weakens entrainment while wind shear enhances ...

A large-eddy simulation exploration of the assumptions used in retrieving entrainment from a mixing diagram approach with ground-based remote sensors [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement TechniquesEntrainment is a crucial component of the atmospheric boundary layer (BL) moisture and heat budget. While usually thought of as only entrainment flux, entrainment within the mixed layer budget equation is really composed of two terms: the flux of a ...
