Novel Computational Methodologies for Structural Modeling of Spacious Ligand Binding Sites of G-Protein-Coupled Receptors: Development and Application to Human Leukotriene B4 Recep... by Yoko Ishino, Takanori Harada

“…The core idea of the method is that a molecular dynamics simulation is used to calculate average 3D coordinates of all atoms of a GPCR protein against heat fluctuation on the picosecond or nanosecond time scale, and then evolutionary computation including receptor-ligand docking simulations functions to determine the rotation angle of each helix of a GPCR protein as a movement on a longer time scale. …”

An Investigation into the Modeling Methodology of the Coil Spring by Liangcheng Dai, Maoru Chi, Hongxing Gao, Jianfeng Sun

“…However, the coil spring is usually modelled as a simple linear force element without considering the dynamic characteristics in multibody dynamic simulations of railway vehicles. To integrate the dynamic characteristics of the coil spring into the simulation, three equivalent dynamic models of the coil spring are established by treating the coil spring as multimass spring series, Timoshenko beam, and flexible spring, respectively. …”

The effect of formaldehyde solution in pitfall traps on the probability of catching woodlice (Isopoda, Oniscidea) by Ivan Hadrián Tuf, Lucie Novotná, Pavel Fryčka

“…Our study compares the effect of formaldehyde solution, water, and the random probability of catch simulated by using dry traps. Ninety pitfall traps were placed in a floodplain forest ground: one-third used 4% formaldehyde solution as a fixative, one-third used water, and one-third was left without any liquid to simulate the random probability of a catch. …”

Research on Cold Chain Logistics Distribution Route Based on Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm by Haiou Xiong

“…Meanwhile, the updating mode of traditional pheromone is improved to limit the maximum and minimum pheromone concentration on the road and change the path selection transfer probability. The simulation results and experiment make clear that the IACO algorithm is lower than the chaotic-simulated annealing ant colony algorithm (CSAACO) and the traditional ACO algorithm in terms of convergence speed, logistics transportation distance, and logistics delivery time. …”

Study on the Precursors of Coal-Rock Fracture Based on the Maximum Lyapunov Exponent of Acoustic Emission Parameters by Guoqiang Cheng, Xiaohui Sun, Jiangong Li

“…In this paper, the relationship between acoustic emission (AE) parameters and coal-rock fracture is investigated by using the discrete element particle flow simulation software PFC. PFC is used to simulate the coal-rock uniaxial compression test for extracting the time series of AE event number, calculate the maximum Lyapunov exponent of the time series, and analyze the chaotic characteristics of AE event number. …”
