The Teleodynamics of Language, Culture, Technology and Science (LCT&S)

Information, 2013
Logan [1] in his book The Extended Mind developed the hypothesis that language, culture, technology and science can be treated as organisms that evolve and reproduce themselves.

Mitochondrial morphodynamics alteration induced by influenza virus infection as a new antiviral strategy.

PLoS Pathogens, 2021
Influenza virus infections are major public health threats due to their high rates of morbidity and mortality. Upon influenza virus entry, host cells experience modifications of endomembranes, including those used for virus trafficking and replication ...

A parameterization of flow separation over subaqueous dunes [PDF]

, 2007
Flow separation plays a key role in the development of dunes, and modeling the complicated flow behavior inside the flow separation zone requires much computational effort.

Performance Evaluation of Wave Input Reduction Techniques for Modeling Inter-Annual Sandbar Dynamics

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
In process-based numerical models, reducing the amount of input parameters, known as input reduction (IR), is often required to reduce the computational effort of these models and to enable long-term, ensemble predictions.

The role of discharge variability in determining alluvial stratigraphy [PDF]

, 2015
We illustrate the potential for using physics-based modeling to link alluvial stratigraphy to large river morphology and dynamics. Model simulations, validated using ground penetrating radar data from the Río Paraná, Argentina, demonstrate a strong ...

Remotely Sensed Analysis of Channel Bar Morphodynamics in the Middle Yangtze River in Response to a Major Monsoon Flood in 2002

Remote Sensing, 2018
Channel bars are a major depositional feature in channels, and are considered as an important part of the morphodynamics of an alluvial river. The long-term morphodynamics of bars have been intensively investigated.

Extraction of tidal channel networks from airborne scanning laser altimetry and aerial photography [PDF]

, 2003
The study of the morphodynamics of tidal channel networks is important because of their role in tidal propagation and the evolution of salt-marshes and tidal flats. Channel dimensions range from tens of metres wide and metres deep near the low water mark

Morphodynamics of phyllotaxis

The International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2006
A morphodynamic model for phyllotaxis based upon an axiomatic approach is presented. We show that the helical forms of alternate phyllotaxis can be derived from the assumption of the rudiment's growth and movement on the cylindrical embryo surface in the absence of a longitudinal displacement.

Biophysical processes of morphogenesis in lizard lungs

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The lungs of squamate reptiles (lizards and snakes) are highly diverse, exhibiting single chambers, multiple chambers, transitional forms with two to three chambers, along with a suite of other anatomical features, including finger‐like epithelial projections into the body cavity known as diverticulae.
