We use a standard discrete-time linear Gaussian model to analyze the information storage capability of individual nodes in complex networks, given the network structure and link weights. In particular, we investigate the role of two- and three-node motifs in contributing to local information storage. We show analytically that directed feedback and feedforward loop motifs are the dominant contri...

Dense systems of linear equations are quite common in many science and engineering applications. Such linear systems place extreme storage and computational demands on computer resources and, in many cases, may severely limit the subsequent analysis. A dense out-of-core solver (DOCS) that operates on a partitioned coefficient matrix can reduce the in-core storage requirements of the linear syst...

A new type of per-fluorinated polymer, "Low Temperature Fomblin," has been tested as a wall coating in an ultracold neutron (UCN) storage experiment using a gravitational storage system. The data show a UCN reflection loss coefficient η as low as ≈ 5 × 10(-6) in the temperature range 105 K to 150 K. We plan to use this oil in a new type of neutron lifetime measurement, where a bellows system ("...

A mathematically correct form of the linear storage element’s routing equation is specified requiring only a slight modification of the existing HEC-HMS routine. The new formulation, unlike the current version in use, is unconditionally stable as long as the time step and the storage coefficient values are trivially specified as positive numbers.

The rate coefficient for dielectronic recombination (DR) of Ne-like Fe forming Na-like Fe was measured employing the merged electron-ion beams technique at the heavyion storage-ring TSR of the Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik in Heidelberg, Germany. In the electron-ion collision energy range of 240–840 eV the merged-beams recombination rate coefficient is dominated by DR associated with 2s 2p...

background & aim: increasing economic role of medicinal herbs in recent society and complexity of modern technologies in production (planting and harvesting), transportation, storage, processing, quality evaluation, distribution, marketing and consumption of these products require a thorough understanding of their physical properties. coefficient of friction of plant on the various surfaces...

in this research, kiwifruits (hayward) were selected in two mass ranges (large and small). they were placed in one-liter glass bottles in the vicinity of the polyethylene sachets containing potassium permanganate nano-zeolite (0, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.8 g) and were stored in a germinator (5°c temperature and 30% relative humidity). then, the physicochemical properties of the fruits (soluble solid cont...

It is curious how aggregates rather than single instances creep into our subject even when we aren't looking for statistical trouble. Here is an example. In the Erdös spirit, I'll offer a $5 prize for anyone who can manage to provide a proof of the fact that • every linear form aX+b with a, b ∈ Z relatively prime represents at least one prime number; and yet • the proof doesn't actually show th...

While wind farms have no inherent storage to supply power in calm conditions, this paper demonstrates that large tidal turbine farms in channels have short-term energy storage. This storage lies in the inertia of the oscillating flow and can be used to exceed the previously published upper limit for power production by currents in a tidal channel, while simultaneously maintaining stronger curre...
