In Systems Biology, the complex relationships between different entities in the cells are modeled and analyzed using networks. Towards this aim, a rich variety of gene regulatory network (GRN) inference algorithms has been developed in recent years....

In many countries, a number of industrial estates have been established to support the growth of the industrial sector, which is an essential strategy to drive economic growth. Planning for the location of industrial factories within an industrial es...

This paper presents a new depth-integrated non-hydrostatic finite element model for simulating wave propagation, breaking and runup using a combination of discontinuous and continuous Galerkin methods. The formulation decomposes the depth-integrated...

A study of the magnetic behaviour of polycrystalline thin films as a function of their thickness is presented in this work. The grain volume was kept approximately constant in the virtual samples. The model includes the exchange interaction, magneto-...

The choice of not buckling a seat belt has resulted in a high number of deaths worldwide. Although extensive studies have been done to identify factors of seat belt use, most of those studies have ignored the presence of heterogeneity across vehicle...

As emission legislation becomes more stringent, the modelling of turbulent lean premixed combustion is becoming an essential tool for designing efficient and environmentally friendly combustion systems. However, to predict emissions, reliable predict...

Beach erosion is a natural phenomenon that is not compensated by depositing fresh material on the shoreline while transporting sand away from the shoreline. There are three phenomena that have a serious influence on the coastal structure, such as inc...

A detailed knowledge of the influence of a particle’s shape on its settling behavior is useful for the prediction and design of separation processes. Models in the available literature usually fit a given function to experimental data. In this work,...

The recovery of the membrane profile of an electrostatic micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) is an important issue, because, when an external electrical voltage is applied, the membrane deforms with the risk of touching the upper plate of the devi...

Living organisms are composed of biopolymers (proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates and lipid polymers) that are used to keep or transmit information relevant to the state of these organisms at any given time. In these processes, proteins play a cen...
