! r U = r f ( r E ) . In electrolytes, such effects of induced-charge electrophoresis (ICEP) occur in addition to the purely electrostatic effect of dielectrophoresis (DEP) in low-frequency AC fields (< 100 kHz), where there is enough time for diffuse-charge relaxation around the particle within each period. ICEP is a complex phenomenon, which can lead not only to nonlinear mobility (in the fie...

Greengard's N -body algorithm claims to compute the pairwise interactions in a system ofN particles in O(N) time for a xed precision. In this paper, we show that the choice of precision is not independent of N and has a lower bound of logN . We use this result to show that Greengard's algorithm is not O(N). The N -body problem constitutes simulating the motion of N particles under the in uence ...

With the scale expands, traditional deployment algorithms are becoming increasingly complicated than before, which are no longer fit for sensor networks. In order to reduce the complexity, we propose a node deployment algorithm based on viscous fluid model. In wireless sensor networks, sensor nodes are abstracted as fluid particles. Similar to the diffusion and self-propagation behavior of flui...

background: a method to track liver tumor motion signals from fluoroscopic images without any implanted gold fiducial markers was proposed in this study to overcome the adverse effects on precise tumor irradiation caused by respiratory movement. materials and methods: the method was based on the following idea: (i) before treatment, a series of fluoroscopic images corresponding to different bre...

In this paper, a quaternion firefly algorithm is utilized to solve a multi-row facility layout design problem with the objective of minimizing the total cost of transportation. A quaternion firefly algorithm takes the motion of the firefly as a quaternion one. Consequently, the solution space is explored more accurately and the answers are of higher quality. That is, the answers are considerabl...

We discuss the covariant formulation of the dynamics of particles with abelian and non-abelian gauge charges in external fields. Using this formulation we develop an algorithm for the construction of constants of motion, which makes use of a generalization of the concept of Killing vectors and tensors in differential geometry. We apply the formalism to the motion of classical charges in abelian...

this paper proposes a novel hybrid algorithm namely apso-bfo which combines merits of bacterial foraging optimization (bfo) algorithm and adaptive particle swarm optimization (apso) algorithm to determine the optimal pid parameters for control of nonlinear systems. to balance between exploration and exploitation, the proposed hybrid algorithm accomplishes global search over the whole search spa...
