The scaling of the entanglement entropy at a quantum critical point allows us to extract universal properties state, e.g., central charge conformal field theory. With rapid improvement noisy intermediate-scale (NISQ) devices, these computers present themselves as powerful tool study many-body systems. We use finite-depth circuits suitable for NISQ devices variational ansatz represent ground sta...

The Critical Depth Hypothesis formalized by Sverdrup in 1953 posits that vernal phytoplankton blooms occur when surface mixing shoals to a depth shallower than a critical depth horizon defining the point where phytoplankton growth exceeds losses. This hypothesis has since served as a cornerstone in plankton ecology and reflects the very common assumption that blooms are caused by enhanced growt...

We investigate computer vision methods to monitor Intensive Care Units (ICU) and assist in sedation delivery and accident prevention. We propose the use of a Bed Aligned Map (BAM) to analyze the patient’s body. We use a depth camera to localize the bed, estimate its surface and divide it into 10 cm× 10 cm cells. Here, the BAM represents the average cell height over the mattress. This depth-base...

The superconducting transition is studied within the one-loop RG in fixed dimension D = 3 and at the critical point. A tricritical behavior is found and, for κ > κc, an attractive charged fixed point, distinct from that of a neutral superfluid. The critical exponents of the continuous transition are evaluated and it is shown that the anomalous dimension of the gauge-field equals unity. This imp...

Railway structures are one of the most important structures in transportation. So the lack of precise study of their dynamic behavior leads to irreparable damages. The significant factors contributing to the accurate analysis of the dynamic behavior of railways are the type of load and foundation used in it. In this study, an Euler-Bernoulli beam subjected to a moving load on a finite depth fou...

The suppression of the regenerative chatter phenomenon in turning process via the variation of the frequency and amplitude of the spindle motor excitation is carried out in this research. A programmable inverter is employed for variable periodic excitation of the spindle motor. A set of turning experiments is designed and performed on a number of conical work pieces both in constant spindle spe...

We investigate a nonlocal reaction-diffusion-advection equation which models the growth of a single phytoplankton species in a water column where the species depends solely on light for its metabolism. We study the combined effect of death rate, sinking or buoyant coefficient, water column depth and vertical turbulent diffusion rate on the persistence of a single phytoplankton species. Under a ...
