An experimental and theoretical comparison between static and dynamic torsional soil tests
The dynamic properties of dry Leighton Buzzard sand have been investigated using a resonant column test apparatus. These data are compared with very low frequency cyclic tests on identical specimens of sand. The comparison indicates that the properties of dry sand are independent of frequency. A simple one-dimensional model of kinematic hardening plasticity is used to predict the dynamic behavi...
متن کاملRegional Coexistence of Species and Competition between Rare Species.
A model is developed for the coexistence and exclusion of species over a region of similar habitable patches. Since the balance of local extinction and colonization would leave some patches unoccupied even without competitors, species may coexist even when all the patches are the same. Regional competition coefficients are found when species affect the local extinction or migration rates of eac...
متن کاملResource competition between sympatric sibling rotifer species
Mechanisms underlying competitive interactions are important in understanding the structure of planktonic communities, particularly the coexistence of similar species. Here we present experimental results of exploitative competition among three sympatric sibling species of the Brachionus plicatilis complex for two differently-sized species of food microalgae. These three rotifer species are to ...
متن کاملThe Quinones of Azulene. Experimental Tests of Theoretical Predictions
Before any of the eleven possible quinones of azulene were known, predictions were made about their proper— ties on the basis of Hickel, MINDO/3, PPP and ab initio SCF (STO—3G) calculations (3). Four unsubstituted quinones of azulene have now been prepared, and the experimental results obtained so far provide information regarding their stability, reduction potentials, cycloadditions with cyclo...
متن کاملTheoretical models of species’ borders: single species approaches
ly in terms of spatial demography / how birth, death, and dispersal rates vary across space and time / rather than of detailed mechanisms. Theoretical models of population dynamics in spatially heterogeneous environments (e.g. along gradients) provide useful tools for characterizing the demographic underpinning of species’ borders. Our aim here is to provide a conceptual framework that captures...
