Abstract— In this paper, input impedance of a vertical rod under lightning stroke is first computed by applying the method of moments (MoM) on the Maxwell’s equations. The circuit model is then achieved through applying modified vector fitting (MVF) on the computed input impedance. After then the equivalent circuit is again extracted for a few values of soil conductivity and rod radius. Finally...

In particular calculations have been made for the detection of extraterrestrial high energy neutrinos. Additional the rest-energy of a neutrino is calculated (equivalent to its rest mass). But both calculations are not standard. The calculations are made from the perspective of a new model for the universe: The Double Torus hypothesis. The alternative calculation shows that the result matches a...

A four-state mutation–selection model for the evolution of populations of DNA-sequences is investigated with particular interest in the phenomenon of error thresholds. The mutation model considered is the Kimura 3ST mutation scheme, fitness functions, which determine the selection process, come from the permutation-invariant class. Error thresholds can be found for various fitness functions, th...

The effect of forced near-inertial motion on the kinetic energy budget of a turbulent, geostrophic background flow is examined using a primitive equation ocean circulation model. Balanced and unbalanced parts of the flow are taken to be equivalent to lowand high-passed filtered versions of the model fields, and the Reynolds stresses associated with the high-passed, predominantly near-inertial p...
