Surface tension data of n-propane, n-octane and n-dodecane from nucleation simulations
Tellus: Series B, Chemical and Physical Meteorology, 2018 The Classical Nucleation Theory (CNT) has been a dominant model in understanding the self-assembly of new thermodynamic phases. CNT provides significant explanations to processes such as aerosol formation and cloud condensation.

The sigma profile: A formal tool to study organization and its evolution at multiple scales [PDF]
Complexity, 2010 The $σ$ profile is presented as a tool to analyze the organization of systems at different scales, and how this organization changes in time. Describing structures at different scales as goal-oriented agents, one can define $σ\in [0,1]$ ("satisfaction") as the degree to which the goals of each agent at each scale have been met.

Local and Distortional Buckling of Axially Loaded Cold Rolled Sigma Profiles [PDF]
Acta Mechanica et Automatica, 2016 Abstract In this paper the local and distortional buckling analyses of axially loaded cold-rolled channel and sigma profiles were performed. The critical buckling load was computed by solving the linear eigenvalue problem for different numerical models using Finite Element Method and simplified formulas implemented in Eurocode and ...
