Abstract:
Today's transportation problems are found in the complex interactions of social, financial, economic, political, and engineering issues. The traditional approach to analyzing transportation problems has been the top-down approach, in which a set of overall objectives is defined and specific parts are fitted in the overall scheme. The effectiveness of this analysis process has been challenged when many issues need to be addressed at once and the individual parts participants to decisions have greater autonomy. A factor contributing to this phenomenon is the greater opportunity and power for ind

Abstract:
Agent-based modeling is a long-standing but underused method that allows researchers to simulate artificial worlds for hypothesis testing and theory building. Agent-based models (ABMs) offer unprecedented control and statistical power by allowing researchers to precisely specify the behavior of any number of agents and observe their interactions over time. ABMs are especially useful when investigating group behavior or evolutionary processes and can uniquely reveal nonlinear dynamics and emergence—the process whereby local interactions aggregate into often-surprising collective phenomena such

In principle, all materials science problems are easy to solve.

As a result, various approximations and simplifications are introduced to obtain descriptions having the minimum complexity to describe a given class of phenomena.

Social workers have taken large strides in adopting rigorous research methods, yet there have been computational advances that could enhance the social work knowledge base.

We review three theories, identify how current methods do not allow for the full exploration of the social phenomena under investigation, and provide justification for using agent-based modeling.

Social network modeling is generally based on graph theory, which allows for study of dynamics and emerging phenomena. However, in terms of neighborhood, the graphs are not necessarily adapted to represent complex interactions, and the neighborhood of a group of vertices can be inferred from the neighborhoods of each vertex composing that group. In our study, we consider that a group has to be considered as a complex system where emerging phenomena can appear.

Abstract:
More than one billion people will face water scarcity within the next ten years due to climate change and unsustainable water usage, and this number is only expected to grow exponentially in the future. At current water use rates, supply-side demand management is no longer an effective way to combat water scarcity. Instead, many municipalities and water agencies are looking to demand-side solutions to prevent major water loss. While changing conservation behavior is one demand-based strategy, there is a growing movement toward the adoption of water conservation technology as a way to solve wat

Abstract:
In clinic practice, a strong appeal for painless transdermal injection is pursued, especially for patient drug delivery that cannot be administered orally. A new disposable painless syringe with MEMS technology is presented. The mode of micro needle array and a flexible PDMS container of hemisphere shape are given, and the behavior of the drug liquid flow through the needles is described based on port ontology to model miniature syringe and explains the phenomena of clog formation. The analysis and formulas have theoretically been derived, and the performances and the clog phenomena have been

AbstractThe paper focuses on providing an insight into the current state of computational modeling regarding reactive magnetron sputtering systems. A detailed compilation of developed models is gathered and grouped into categories based on the phenomena being modeled. The survey covers models developed for the analysis of magnetron discharges, particle-surface interactions at the target and the substrate, as well as macroscopic models. Corresponding software packages available online are also presented. After gaining the necessary insight into the current state of research, a list of the most

Abstract:
The paper suggests an approach to modeling the electrocoagulation process that is based on the generalization of the equations of incompressible fluid flow in nonisothermal conditions. In the model was taking into account the ratio between the values of the parameters which characterize the domination of convective and mass-exchange components of the process over diffusion. An asymptotic approximation of solutions of corresponding boundary value problems is constructed. Based on the received solutions, we conducted a computer simulation of the process of distribution of iron concentration insi

This article presents an investigation of the gravity hill phenomena by analysing its geospatial data. Wadi Al Baida located in Al Madinah, Saudi Arabia has been taken as a case study. Wadi Al Baida is listed as one of the sites in the world where the said phenomena exists, but the site has been famous for any sort of magnetic force because the vehicles move uphill and on flat road without any engine power on. The topography of the valley is studied by using the geospatial data of the area and by creating Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) based on Point Kriging method of gridding. The results sh

Abstract:
During the past two decades, density-functional (DF) theory has evolved from niche applications for simple solid-state materials to become a workhorse method for studying a wide range of phenomena in a variety of system classes throughout physics, chemistry, biology, and materials science. Here, we review the recent advances in DF calculations for materials modeling, giving a classification of modern DF-based methods when viewed from the materials modeling perspective. While progress has been very substantial, many challenges remain on the way to achieving consensus on a set of universally app

Abstract:
Currently available process models for ultraviolet (UV) disinfection do not account for many of the fundamental physical phenomena that are known to affect reactor performance. A modeling approach was developed which employs numerical representations of hydrodynamics and the radiation intensity field; these simulations were accomplished by the methods of computational fluid dynamics and line-source integration. The modeling approach also allowed the identification of process characteristics which limited reactor performance. Based on the output of the models, two geometric modifications were d

The new concept of personalized medicine and the affirmation of Nucleic Acid Based Drugs (NABDs), an emerging class of bio-drugs constituted by short sequences of either DNA or RNA, represent a new challenge for the mathematical modelling in the drug delivery and adsorption field. Indeed, whether patient uniqueness asks for the use of theoretical tools enabling a rational approach adapting to each patient, NABDs delivery brings to our attention new aspects of drug delivery due to the NABDs fragile nature and way of action.

Abstract:
The phase-field method is a very powerful tool to model the phase transformation and microstructural evolution of solids at mesoscopic scale. However, several important phenomena, like defect formation, grain boundary motion, or reconstructive phase transitions require an atomic scale study. Recently an approach called the quasi-particle approach, based on the Atomic Density Function theory was developed to incorporate the atomic-level crystalline structures into standard continuum theory for pure and multicomponent systems.
