Solvent-free coarse grained models represent one of the most promising approaches for molecular simulations of mesoscopically large membranes. In these models, the size of the simulated membrane is limited by the slow relaxation time of the longest bending mode. Here, we present a Monte Carlo algorithm with update moves in which all the lipids are simultaneously displaced. These collective move...

The behaviour of beam-column joint plays an important role in the response of a steel moment resisting framed structure especially under seismic excitation. Semi rigid connections like bolted joints, allow better energy dissipation and provide good response under lateral loads. In this paper the ductility and energy dissipation characteristics of semi rigid bolted connections using double web a...

Noise has great influence on the signal analysis for centrifugal compressor. In order to eliminate the noise, the iterative singular value decomposition (ISVD) de-noising is applied in this paper. Firstly, the algorithm of this method is introduced. It is based on singular value decomposition about the trajectory matrix of attractor which is reconstructed according to time delay embedding theor...

We examine phases of the Shraiman-Siggia model of lightly-doped, square lattice quantum antiferromagnets in a self-consistent, two-loop, interacting magnon analysis. We find magnetically-ordered and quantum-disordered phases both with and without incommensurate spin correlations. The quantum disordered phases have a pseudo-gap in the spin excitation spectrum. The quantum transition between the ...
