Calibration of a density-based model of urban morphogenesis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
We study a stochastic model of urban growth generating spatial distributions of population densities at an intermediate mesoscopic scale. The model is based on the antagonist interplay between the two opposite abstract processes of aggregation ...

Effects of radiation, curvature, and preferential diffusion on the extinction of laminar non-premixed flames

AIP Advances, 2022
The combined effects of radiative heat loss, curvature, and preferential diffusion on laminar non-premixed flames (or flamelets) are investigated in this work by using asymptotic analysis.

Effects of considering preferential diffusion and flame stretch in FGM method for numerical simulations of hydrogen/air flames

Journal of Thermal Science and Technology
One-dimensional numerical simulations of an unstretched propagating hydrogen/air premixed flame and two-dimensional numerical simulations of outwardly propagating hydrogen/air laminar premixed flames are performed using a flamelet-generated manifold (FGM)

First-principles molecular dynamics simulations of proton diffusion in cubic BaZrO $$_3$$ 3 perovskite under strain conditions

Materials for Renewable and Sustainable Energy, 2016
First-principles molecular dynamics simulations have been employed to analyse the proton diffusion in cubic BaZrO $$_3$$ 3 perovskite at 1300 K. A non-linear effect on the proton diffusion coefficient arising from an applied isometric strain up to 2  $$\%

Technical Note: The use of an interrupted-flow centrifugation method to characterise preferential flow in low permeability media [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2015
We present an interrupted-flow centrifugation technique to characterise preferential flow in low permeability media. The method entails a minimum of three phases: centrifuge-induced flow, no flow and centrifuge-induced flow, which may be repeated several

Modeling Long-Distance Forward and Backward Diffusion Processes in Tracer Transport Using the Fractional Laplacian on Bounded Domains

Fractal and Fractional, 2023
Recent studies have emphasized the importance of the long-distance diffusion model in characterizing tracer transport occurring within both subsurface and surface environments, particularly in heterogeneous systems.

Effects of preferential diffusion and flame stretch on FGM method for numerical simulations of ammonia/air premixed combustion

Applications in Energy and Combustion Science
Importance of the considerations of preferential diffusion and flame stretch effects in the flamelet-generated manifold (FGM) method on the prediction accuracy is investigated by two-dimensional numerical simulations of cylindrical NH3/air premixed ...

Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas in Children and Adolescents: Expert Recommendations

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas (SPN) is a rare low‐grade malignant exocrine pancreatic tumor, mostly discovered during the second decade of life in females, with a very good prognosis, provided microscopically complete surgical excision is achieved.
