Robots that are flexible, reconfigurable and universally adaptable and capable of performing various tasks in constrained and dynamic workspaces are in high demand. In this research general forward kinematic model has be...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of probit and logit link functions for the genetic evaluation of early pregnancy using simulated data. The following simulation/analysis structures were constructed: lo...

Abstract BackgroundLong-term care facilities are increasingly caring for persons living with dementia as this population grows. Frontline care workers provide most hands-on support, yet they often have limite...

Manufacturing process simulation (MPS) has become more and more important for aviation and the automobile industry. A highly competitive market requires the use of high performance metals and composite materials in combi...

Background Parental knowledge of newborn care is essential, as it can influence the newborn’s health, growth, and development. It is challenging due to a lack of mothers’ knowledge and skills, insufficient resources,...

We analyse the radial pressure profiles, the intracluster medium (ICM) clumping factor and the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) scaling relations of a sample of simulated galaxy clusters and groups identified in a set of hydrodyn...

The temperature sensitivity of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) critically influences air quality and human health under a warming climate, yet models struggle to accurately reproduce observed sensitivities. This study im...

This work presents and validates a direct analytical methodology for the parametric hydrodynamic design of Pelton rotors. The proposed approach combines a one-dimensional theoretical framework for defining global geometr...

O modelo SYMFOR foi utilizado para simular os processos ecológicos de crescimento, mortalidade e recrutamento e o manejo de uma floresta de terra firme na Amazônia Oriental. Na simulação foram utilizadas todas as ár...

In this work we present a set of synthetic observations that mimic the properties of the integral field spectroscopy (IFS) survey Calar Alto Legacy Integral-Field Area (CALIFA), generated using radiative transfer techniq...

Abstract Background Triage at major incidents has traditionally relied on assessing physiology, and in the UK, this role has usually been performed by healthcare responders. However, recent major incidents have shown tha...

This article presents a proposal of a multithreaded core for an OSI/ISO management agents including its modeling, simulation and performance evaluation. The proposed model i s compared against another one (unthreaded cor...

This paper is an attempt to define how a specific data structure might be used to store, in a persistent manner, temporal information during a computer simulation. In particular, it considers the sort of temporal informa...

The distributed simulation for high performance models has been carried-out into a very useful and low-cost tool. In the present work their application to an individual oriented model (Fish Schools) is analyzed. To do th...

This paper presents an evolution of a simulation environment where situations in which a DDB should maintain data integrity are modeled and implemented. These situations include failures taking place during transactions,...

Computer simulations using Cellular Automata (CA) have been applied with considerable success in diferent scientific areas, such as chemistry, biochemistry, economy, physics, etc. In this work we use CA in order to speci...

Simulation is the process of executing a model, that is a representation of a system with enough detail to describe it but not too excessive. This model has a set of entities, an internal state, a set of input variables ...

"A wide availability of in field Oil & Gas facilities which still have a marginal productive life can be a good opportunity to produce geothermal energy. The challenge is to make good decisions about the company’s asse...

In this paper we present a new mixed-variables symplectic tree code for planetesimal dynamics, which allows to use a very large number of particles in numerical simulations of planet disk interaction. Furthermore, we dis...

The topic of this paper is related to the study of what is known in the industry as the “parent-child” effect. This is accomplished by using a coupled hydraulic fracture and reservoir simulator to perform a sensitivi...

Abstract This book provides a practical guide to molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulation techniques used in the modelling of simple and complex liquids. Computer simulation is an essential tool in studying the chem...

First-principles simulation, meaning density-functional theory calculations with plane waves and pseudopotentials, has become a prized technique in condensed-matter theory. Here I look at the basics of the suject, give a...

Molecular simulation is an extremely useful, but computationally very expensive tool for studies of chemical and biomolecular systems. Here, we present a new implementation of our molecular simulation toolkit GROMACS whi...
