Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 1999 Models are tools; they need to fit both the hand and the task. Presence or absence of a feature such as a pacemaker or a cascade is not in itself good. Or bad. Criteria for model evaluation involve benefit‐cost ratios, with the numerator a function of the range of phenomena explained, goodness of fit, consistency with other nearby models, and ...

Thermodynamic insight into stimuli-responsive behaviour of soft porous crystals
Nature Communications, 2018 Knowledge of the thermodynamic potential is crucial to characterize the macroscopic state of soft porous crystals. Here, the authors present a generalized thermodynamic approach to construct the Helmholtz free energy and identify the conditions under ...

Direct and inverse problems for nonlocal heat equation with boundary conditions of periodic type
Boundary Value Problems, 2022 A mathematical model of the process of heat diffusion in a closed metal wire is considered. This wire is wrapped around a thin sheet of insulation material. We assume that the insulation is slightly permeable.
