Random Photon Absorption Model Elucidates How Early Gain Control in Fly Photoreceptors Arises from Quantal Sampling [PDF]

, 2016
Many diurnal photoreceptors encode vast real-world light changes effectively, but how this performance originates from photon sampling is unclear. A 4-module biophysically-realistic fly photoreceptor model, in which information capture is limited by the ...

New transmission mechanism for the sustainable and humanistic development of human capital: Demand for the ‘rigidity turn’

RUDN journal of Sociology, 2021
The author considers the becoming complex reality as developing nonlinearly and demanding new transmission mechanisms for the formation of human capital and also factors that contribute to changes in these realities: self-reflection of both nature and ...

Nonlinearity-induced localization in a periodically-driven semi-discrete system

, 2018
We demonstrate that nonlinearity plays a constructive role in supporting the robustness of dynamical localization in a model which is discrete, in one dimension and continuous in the orthogonal one.

Optical Kerr type nonlinearity [PDF]

, 2001
The origin of the Kerr type nonlinearity of the medium as a result of the interaction between photons via the Dirac delta-potential is presented in the formalism adopted from the photon wave function approach.

Questions of existence and uniqueness of the solution of one class of an infinite system of nonlinear two-dimensional equations [PDF]

Известия Саратовского университета. Новая серия: Математика. Механика. Информатика
The paper is devoted to the study of one class of infinite systems of nonlinear two-dimensional equations with convex and monotone nonlinearity. The studied  class of nonlinear systems of algebraic equations has both theoretical and practical ...

Nonlinear DNA dynamics: nonlinearity versus dispersion

, 2012
In the present paper we study the impact of dispersion and nonlinearity on DNA dynamics. We rely on the helicoidal Peyrard-Bishop model and use the fact that nonlinear DNA dynamics represents an interplay between nonlinearity and dispersion.

Nonlinearity Induced Critical Coupling [PDF]

, 2013
We study a critically coupled system (Opt. Lett., \textbf{32}, 1483 (2007)) with a Kerr-nonlinear spacer layer. Nonlinearity is shown to inhibit null-scattering in a critically coupled system at low powers.

Principle Study of a Semi-active Inerter Featuring Magnetorheological Effect

Frontiers in Materials, 2019
Inerters are two-terminal mass elements in which the forces applied at the terminals are proportional to relative acceleration between the nodes. The volume and weight of inerters are much smaller than those of any conventional mass element for the same ...
