In this note, we consider a SK-type model on Zd for d ≥ 1, weighted by a function allowing to any single spin to interact with a small proportion of the other ones. Both mean field and diluted cases are considered, and we compute the replica symmetric solution at high temperature in those two cases. We are also able to study the influence of some boundary conditions on the replica symmetric sol...

the endurance of any type of architecture is contingent upon the study of the characteristics that led to its formation. two general approaches have been adopted to study and analyze the iranian architecture. a number of scholars have taken a historical approach, while others have merely considered a genre- based approach. making use of many historical studies, these scholars have attempted to ...

Edge-localized modes (ELMs) are cyclic disturbances in the outer region of tokamak plasmas that are influential in determining present and future tokamak performance. In this Letter, we outline an approach to modeling ELMs in which we envisage toroidal peeling modes initiating a Taylor relaxation [Phys. Rev. Lett. 33, 1139 (1974)10.1103/PhysRevLett.33.1139] of a tokamak outer region plasma. Rel...

Healthcare-related research is largely regional. Put simply, this is because disease burdens differ between world regions. Even global burdens, such as ischaemic heart disease and cancer, display distinctive characteristics in certain regions that are not seen in others. Regional differences in infrastructure, resources and human capital further compound the differences seen, as they affect the...

the 21st century nanotechnology has the potential to make a huge impact on sustainability; but to achieve this potential, nanotechnology is all about getting more function on less space. in other hand, nanotechnology is one of the most extremely important components in sustainable development. it has the potential to reduce the environmental impact and energy intensity of structures, as well as...

in the architecture of iranian traditional houses, the ornamentations available in the inscriptions of houses entrance portal express the identity of architects and personality of houses owners and are rooted in their religious and national beliefs and faiths. the main hypothesis of this research is changing the physique and application of religious contents in compliance with the thoughts and ...

We investigate the elastic–plastic fracture of architected materials through experiments and theory, with a focus on understanding combined effects material length scale geometry, using pillar array as model structure. show that load sharing across pillars, hence toughness, can be controlled by changing spatial distribution height pillars. A simple relation is presented to relate extent plastic...

The Hedgehog signaling pathway is part of the ancient developmental-evolutionary animal toolkit. Frequently co-opted to pattern new structures, the pathway is conserved among eumetazoans yet flexible and pleiotropic in its effects. The Hedgehog receptor, Patched, is transcriptionally activated by Hedgehog, providing essential negative feedback in all tissues. Our locus-wide dissections of the c...

Three months following sowing, Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings were transplanted into pots with controlled-release fertilizer (CRF) applied at rates of 0, 8, 16, and 24 g/2200 cm3 soil as a single uniform layer beneath the root system. Seedlings were destructively harvested periodically, and roots were divided into vertical segments above (S1), within (S2), and belo...
