It is likely that the stabilization and golden rule procedure can be readily applied to vibrational Feshbach resonances as well. Eastes and Marcus have successfully used the stabilization method to locate such resonances in atom-diatom oscillator colinear collision^,^^ although they made no attempt to evaluate the resonance widths. Location of resonances by performing scattering calculations pr...

This paper is concerned with the buckling of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) under axial load. The DWCNTs are modelled as two cylindrical shells, one shell nested in the other and Winkler springs are introduced to connect them in order to simulate the van der Waals forces between the two nanotubes. By using the Donnell thin shell theory, we derive the governing equations for the bucklin...

Optical tweezers are microscopic tools with extraordinary precision in the determination of the position (±2 nm) of a colloid (diameter: ∼2.0 μm) in 3D-space and in the measurement of small forces in the range between 0.1 and 100 pN (pN=10-12 N). Experiments are reported in which single double-stranded (ds)-DNA chains of different length [2,000 base pairs (bp), 3,000, 4,000, and 6,000 bp] are s...

Finding the definitions of acronyms in any given text has been an on going problem with multiple proposed solutions. In this paper, we use bidirectional encoder representations from transformers question answer model provided by Google to find acronym a text. Given and passage containing acronym, our is expected expansion passage. Through experiments, show that can correctly predict 94% expansi...

G. R. Grimmett and S. N. Winkler Abstra t. We consider three probability measures on subsets of edges of a given finite graph G, namely those which govern, respectively, a uniform forest, a uniform spanning tree, and a uniform connected subgraph. A conjecture concerning the negative association of two edges is reviewed for a uniform forest, and a related conjecture is posed for a uniform connec...

The use of syndrome coding in steganographic schemes tends to reduce distortion during embedding. The more complete model comes from the wet papers (J. Fridrich et al., 2005) and allow to lock positions which cannot be modified. Recently, binary BCH codes have been investigated and seem to be good candidates in this context (D. Schönfeld and A. Winkler, 2006). Here, we show that Reed-Solomon co...

In this paper, the bending behavior of rectangular plates with stepped thickness resting on an elastic half-space foundation is investigated through analytic method. Combined theory thin and moderately thick plate, plate divided into upper lower plates, Fourier series used to obtain analytical solution deflection interaction force between foundation. The influence modulus theory, dimension also...
