A review on Thermodynamics in Water Cycle with Emphasizing on Entropy and Maximum Entropy Production Principle [PDF]
علوم و مهندسی آب و فاضلاب, 2022 Hydrological cycle is directed into thermodynamic non-equilibrium state and maximum entropy production through thermodynamic processes. Therefore, it is possible to understand and describe hydrological cycle through computation of entropy production rate

The Eco-Evo Mandala: Simplifying Bacterioplankton Complexity into Ecohealth Signatures
Entropy, 2021 The microbiome emits informative signals of biological organization and environmental pressure that aid ecosystem monitoring and prediction. Are the many signals reducible to a habitat-specific portfolio that characterizes ecosystem health?

Production inventory models for deteiorative items with three levels of production and shortages [PDF]
Yugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2017 In this paper, three level production inventory models for deteriorative items are considered under the variation in production rate. Namely, it is possible that production started at one rate, after some time, switches to another rate.

Optimal policy for attention-modulated decisions explains human fixation behavior
eLife, 2021 Traditional accumulation-to-bound decision-making models assume that all choice options are processed with equal attention. In real life decisions, however, humans alternate their visual fixation between individual items to efficiently gather relevant ...

Clarifying the Notion “Parameter”
Biolinguistics, 2007 This article aims to reflect on linguistic architecture by re-examining language variation. Three progressively deeper forms of variation are suggested, each of which arguably contributes to this exercise in rather different ways.

Metabolism at Evolutionary Optimal States
Metabolites, 2015 Metabolism is generally required for cellular maintenance and for the generation of offspring under conditions that support growth. The rates, yields (efficiencies), adaptation time and robustness of metabolism are therefore key determinants of cellular ...
