system dynamics is a strategic approach for modeling complex systems and analyzing their behavior. dynamic behavior in entrepreneurial system can be modeled using system dynamics approach and dynamic hypotheses about the system`s behavior can be proposed and tested using simulation and computer aided tools. however, as the review of literature shows, studies which link system dynamics modeling ...

The determination of gyration radius is a strong research for configuration of a Macromolecule. Italso reflects molecular compactness shape. In this work, to characterize the behavior of theprotein, we observe quantities such as the radius of gyration and the average energy. We studiedthe changes of these factors as a function of temperature for Acetylcholine receptor protein in gasphase with n...

monte carlo simulation is a standard technique for project risk analysis. however, some assumptions of this technique are not reasonable in real world. when a project falls behind the schedule, managers take actions to improve the performance. nevertheless, most of the simulation models as monte carlo omit these reactions in their analysis, which results in unreasonable wide distributions or ev...

This paper deals with leader-following and leaderless consensus problems of high-order multi-input/multi-output (MIMO) multi-agent systems with unknown nonlinear dynamics in the presence of uncertain external disturbances. The agents may have different dynamics and communicate together under a directed graph. A distributed adaptive method is designed for both cases. The structures of the contro...

although carbon nanotubes (cnt) have been employed as reinforcements in nanocomposites, presence of nano scale defects such as stone-wales and vacancy defects in carbon nanotubes (cnt) weakens the mechanical properties of these materials. in this paper the effects of defects in cnts on nanocomposite elastic behavior are investigated using molecular dynamics. stiffness matrices of cnt and nanoco...

joint flexibility is a very important factor to consider in the controller design for robot manipulators if high performance is expected. most of the research works on control of flexible-joint robots in literature have ignored the actuator dynamics to avoid complexity in controller design. the problem of designing nonlinear controller for a class of single-link flexible-joint robot manipulator...

human language, over its evolutionary history, has emerged as one of the fundamental defining characteristic of the modern man. however, this milestone evolutionary process through natural selection has not left any ’linguistic fossils’ that may enable us to trace back the actual course of development of language and its establishment in human societies. lacking analytical tools to fathom the cr...

molecular dynamic simulation is a powerful method that monitors all variations in the atomic level in explicit solvent. by this method we can calculate many chemical and biochemical properties of large scale biological systems. in this work all-atom molecular dynamics simulation of polyalanine (pa) was investigated in the presence of 0.224, 0.448, 0.673, 0.897 and 1.122 m of guanidinium chlorid...

Computational methods can play a significant role in characterization of the carbon-based nanocomposites by providing simulation results. In this paper, we prepared a brief review of the mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), Graphene, and coiled carbon nanotube (CCNTs) reinforced nanocomposites. Varies simulation studies in mechanical properties of nanocomposites including represent...
