Estimation of Fluctuation Characterizations by USV-Operation Simulations in Sea State 3 by Jae-Han Park, Ji-Hun Bae, Moon-Hong Baeg

“…In order to simulate the operations of a USV in Sea State 3, we generated the data of sea surfaces using linear wave theory and utilized the motion equation. Fluctuation analysis results by the proposed simulation method could provide crucial information for designing the stabilization system for the critical equipment on a USV. …”

Pédagogie de la créativité : de l’émotion à l’apprentissage by Isabelle Puozzo

“…The school doesn’t escape this contagion. The sociocognitive theory (Bandura, 1997/2007) and the approche multivariée (« multivariate approach ») (Lubart, 2003) present theories which allow us to consider learning in a holistic and interdependent way where the cognitive dimension crosses the emotional, physiological and environmental ones through the elaboration of a creative device. …”

Bifurcations and Dynamics of the Rb-E2F Pathway Involving miR449 by Lingling Li, Jianwei Shen

“…We focused on the gene regulative network involving Rb-E2F pathway and microRNAs (miR449) and studied the influence of time delay on the dynamical behaviors of Rb-E2F pathway by using Hopf bifurcation theory. It is shown that under certain assumptions the steady state of the delay model is asymptotically stable for all delay values; there is a critical value under another set of conditions; the steady state is stable when the time delay is less than the critical value, while the steady state is changed to be unstable when the time delay is greater than the critical value. …”

Hybrid universality classes of systemic cascades by I. Bonamassa, B. Gross, J. Kertész, S. Havlin

“…We provide hyperscaling arguments predicting hybrid critical phenomena characterized by a combination of both mean-field spinodal exponents and d-dimensional corrections, and show how parity invariance influences the geometry and lifetime of critical avalanches. Our theory applies to a wide range of networked systems in arbitrary dimensions, as we demonstrate by simulations encompassing classic and novel cascade models, revealing universal principles of cascade critical phenomena amenable to experimental validation.…”
