Continuous or catastrophic solid–liquid transition in jammed systems
Pasty materials encountered in industry and in earth science are intermediate between solids and liquids either in terms of their internal structure (disordered but jammed) or from a mechanical point of view. Our results indicate that the apparent behavior of a particulate system (soils, suspensions, clays, etc.) can range from liquid-like to soil or solid-like depending on the relative importa...
متن کاملThe transition from evolutionary stability to branching: A catastrophic evolutionary shift
Evolutionary branching-resident-mutant coexistence under disruptive selection-is one of the main contributions of Adaptive Dynamics (AD), the mathematical framework introduced by S.A.H. Geritz, J.A.J. Metz, and coauthors to model the long-term evolution of coevolving multi-species communities. It has been shown to be the basic mechanism for sympatric and parapatric speciation, despite the essen...
متن کاملEmpirical analysis of vegetation dynamics and the possibility of a catastrophic desertification transition
The process of desertification in the semi-arid climatic zone is considered by many as a catastrophic regime shift, since the positive feedback of vegetation density on growth rates yields a system that admits alternative steady states. Some support to this idea comes from the analysis of static patterns, where peaks of the vegetation density histogram were associated with these alternative sta...
متن کاملThe Place of Health Insurance in Reducing Catastrophic Health Expenditure
This paper was aimed to investigate the mixed empirical results on the effect of health insurance in reducing the risk of catastrophic health expenditure (CHE). We investigated a wide range of factors affecting the risk of CHE among patients admitted to hospitals in Tehran. We categorized hospitals into five groups from private hospitals to charity ones. The data used herein was extracted from ...
