Because these patterns modify the temporal dynamics ...

A simple yet realistic MOS model, namely the a-power law MOS model, is introduced to include the carrier velocity saturation effect, which becomes eminent in short-channel MOSFET’s. The model is an extension of Shockley’s square-law MOS model in the saturation region. Since the model is simple, it can be applied for handling MOSFET circuits analytically and can predict the circuit behavior in t...

To be published in Phys. Rev. E (2005). We present a simple point process model of 1/f β noise, covering different values of the exponent β. The signal of the model consists of pulses or events. The interpulse, interevent, interarrival, recurrence or waiting times of the signal are described by the general Langevin equation with the multiplicative noise and stochastically diffuse in some interv...

We present a simple point process model of 1/f(beta) noise, covering different values of the exponent beta . The signal of the model consists of pulses or events. The interpulse, interevent, interarrival, recurrence, or waiting times of the signal are described by the general Langevin equation with the multiplicative noise and stochastically diffuse in some interval resulting in a power-law dis...

in this paper, the influence of the constituent volume fractions by changing the values of the power-law exponent with uniform pressure on the vibration frequencies of reinforced functionally graded cylindrical shells is studied. the fgm shell with ring is developed in accordance to the volume fraction law from two constituents namely stainless steel and nickel. these constituents are graded th...

rheological characteristics of al2o3, cuo and tio2 nano particles were investigated in oil asthe base fluid at 1 and 2 wt.%. constitutive relations for non-newtonian fluid were discussedbased on the power-law model. measured viscosities of each nanofluid were used to evaluatethe power-law and consistency index. results indicated that the nanofluid viscosity decreasedby increasing the concentrat...

A numerical study of hemodynamic parameters of pulsatile blood flow is presented in a stenotic artery with A numerical study of hemodynamic parameters of pulsatile blood flow is presented in a stenotic artery with non-Newtonian models using ADINA. Blood flow was considered laminar, and the arterial wall was considered rigid. Studied stenosis severities were 30, 50, and 70% of the cross-section...

We present a power spectral analysis of the Crab pulsar’s timing noise, mainly using radio measurements from Jodrell Bank taken over the period 1982-1989, an interval bounded by sparse data sampling and a large glitch. The power spectral analysis is complicated by nonuniform data sampling and the presence of a steep red power spectrum that can distort power spectra measurement by causing severe...

following recent works of several authors like huilgol, bhattacharya etd. and javadpour et al., this paper is to contribute further to the literature of axial flow in a rotational coaxial rheometer. we consider axial flow of herschel bulkley mode1 between two concentric cylinders with the inner one rotating, while the outer cylinder is held stationary. an attempt has been made to direct the ana...

Using data from gene expression databases on various organisms and tissues, including yeast, nematodes, human normal and cancer tissues, and embryonic stem cells, we found that the abundances of expressed genes exhibit a power-law distribution with an exponent close to -1; i.e., they obey Zipf's law. Furthermore, by simulations of a simple model with an intracellular reaction network, we found ...
