The mechanical responses of dense packings of soft athermal spheres under a finite-rate shear are studied by means of molecular MOST150 Optical Mercedes Pre-Amp dynamics simulations.We investigate the volume fraction and shear rate dependence of the fluctuations in the shear stress and the interparticle contact number.In particular, we quantify the
This paper classifies all memristors into three classes called Ideal, Generic, or Extended memristors.A subclass of Generic memristors is related to Ideal memristors via a one-to-one mathematical transformation, and is hence called Ideal Generic memristors.The concept of non-volatile memories is defined and clarified with illustrations.Several Ball
Abstract Background While the composition of the gut microbiome has now been well described by several large-scale studies, models that can account for the range of microbiome compositions that have been observed are still lacking.One model that has been well studied in macro communities and that could be useful for understanding microbiome assembl
ZFPM2, encoding a zinc finger protein and abundantly expressed in the brain, uterus and smooth muscles, plays important roles in cardiac and gonadal development.Abnormal expression of ZFPM2 in ovarian tumors and neuroblastoma has been reported but hitherto its genetic association with cancer and effects on gliomas have not been studied.In the Ice a
Trucks have the problems of frequent braking and long-term braking during long-slope transportation.As the temperature of the traditional eddy current retarder is as high as 500 °C during braking, the braking torque of the retarder is seriously degraded.According to the principle of eddy current braking and current thermal effect, this paper
