Game-theoretic models

, 2021
Game theory is a tool to model and discover social mechanisms. The aim of this chapter is to show how the tool can be used by engaging the reader's interest in the game-theoretic modelling of social dilemmas. Social dilemmas are situations in which several agents face a decision conflict because of their interdependence.

EC-SNe from super-AGB progenitors: theoretical models vs. observations [PDF]

, 2009
Using a parametric approach, we determine the configuration of super-AGB stars at the explosion as a function of the initial mass and metallicity, in order to verify if the EC-SN scenario involving a super-AGB star is compatible with the observations ...

Structural Disorder and Collective Behavior of Two-Dimensional Magnetic Nanostructures

Nanomaterials, 2021
Structural disorder has been shown to be responsible for profound changes of the interaction-energy landscapes and collective dynamics of two-dimensional (2D) magnetic nanostructures. Weakly-disordered 2D ensembles have a few particularly stable magnetic

The Biosemiotic Approach in Biology : Theoretical Bases and Applied Models [PDF]

, 2011
Biosemiotics is a growing fi eld that investigates semiotic processes in the living realm in an attempt to combine the fi ndings of the biological sciences and semiotics. Semiotic processes are more or less what biologists have typically referred to as “

Complexity of the Basic Reproduction Number (R0)

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
The basic reproduction number (R0), also called the basic reproduction ratio or rate or the basic reproductive rate, is an epidemiologic metric used to describe the contagiousness or transmissibility of infectious agents.

Taphofacies and Petrofacies Theoretical Marine Models Applied to the Coquina of the Amaral Formation (Lusitanian Basin, Portugal)

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
The Amaral Formation has a wide geographic distribution within the Lusitanian Basin, at the western Iberian Margin (Portugal). The different depositional contexts for this unit enabled the distinction of three sectors: lagoon, lagoon-barrier, and marine ...

Physical Virology in Spain

Biophysica, 2023
Virus particles consist of a protein coat that protects their genetic material and delivers it to the host cell for self-replication. Understanding the interplay between virus structure and function is a requirement for understanding critical processes ...

Theoretical Models of Sunspot Structure and Dynamics

, 2009
Recent progress in theoretical modeling of a sunspot is reviewed. The observed properties of umbral dots are well reproduced by realistic simulations of magnetoconvection in a vertical, monolithic magnetic field.

Research progress on space charge measurement and space charge characteristics of nanodielectrics

IET Nanodielectrics, 2018
Since the proposal of the notion of nanodielectric, the space charge characteristics of nanodielectrics have been widely investigated. With the addition of nanoparticles, some nanodielectrics exhibit smaller space charge accumulation amount during the ...
