We explore a possible application of the additive generalization of the BoltzmannGibbs-Shannon entropy proposed in [A. N. Gorban, I. V. Karlin, Phys. Rev. E, 67:016104 (2003)] to fully developed turbulence. The predicted probability distribution functions are compared with those obtained from Tsallis’ entropy and with experimental data. Consequences of the existence of hidden subsystems are ill...

We can’t preclude the possibility of the use of chemical agents by terrorists I can recall the attempt committed with Sarin in the Tokyo-subway in 1995. For that reason it is necessary to know the chemical situation in the battlefield and in our urban environment as well, for example in the subway. Actually the possible detection principles of toxic-agent-detection-devices are chemical (simple ...

The purpose of this study was to clarify the relationship myofibrils, mitochondoria and other cytoplasmic organella in the developed lingual muscle (vertical, transverse, and longitudinal) by using various microscopic levels: light, scanning electron, and transmission electron. The tongue muscles were examined in seventeen autopsy specimens: eight, 12-32 weeks gestation and ten adults (five mal...

2014 This paper gives a self contained review of some recent progress of the statistical theory of fully developed turbulence. The emphasis is on both analogies and differences with Hamiltonian statistical mechanics, in particular critical phenomena. The method of spectral equations, which plays to a certain extent the role of a mean field theory, is discussed in detail. It is here viewed as a ...

− The theory of electromagnetic shielding is based on the waves equations describing the behavior of electromagnetic field in substance and also boundary phenomena by means of Fresnel’s reflection and transmission coefficients. The interaction between electromagnetic radiation and infinite plane shield having finite thickness d, placed in free space in plane waves region depends of material/shi...

This paper reports on research into the origins of communication and coordination. Several problems with deening communication and coordination are noted. A research methodology is described that circumvents these problems. The methodology is used in an experiment concerning the development of coordination. The aim of the experiment is to see whether a learning agent can use coordination signal...

Model transformations do not simply appear. They have to be not-so-simply developed. In early phases of development, there may exist only an intuition or an educated guess on some of the characteristics of the transformation. Instead of assuming a pre-existing complete transformation specification, we embrace change and develop transformations incrementally, gradually refining them into more co...

there are many published articles which cover current and future challenges of epidemiology. however, up until now, most of them are written by developed world epidemiologists. therefore, despite a common use of assumptions, they did not have the opportunity to discuss the different range of practical tasks and priorities away from developed countries. the topics covered are; facing poverty, no...
