The study reveals that chemical activity within brain cells exhibits behavior characteristic of self-organized criticality, which may help identify disease processes. Researchers used modeling techniques to simulate brain networks and found a power law distribution of wave sizes and durations, adhering to the signature of self-organize...
Researchers have developed a new model that accurately predicts Dungeness crab population fluctuations, combining internal and external factors. The study provides a rare instance where a modeled understanding agrees with field data, offering insights into the elusiveness of population predictability.
Scientists model 1883 tsunami impact on English Bay and Homer Spit, predicting energy absorption at Anchor Point and flooding risk at Homer Spit. The model helps emergency planners understand risks and plan for potential landslides and tidal waves.
A new software developed by UD researchers can generate a simulated version of reforming scenarios in just 100 CPU seconds, improving the accuracy and speed of modeling catalytic reforming processes. The NetGen reforming software allows researchers to build models in a day instead of months.
Scientists argue that computer models and satellites are useful tools, but only when their limitations are well understood. They found that most of the difference between MSU and surface trends could be explained by two significant drops in MSU data for 1981 and 1991.
A teleapprenticeship program is being tested in teacher education to connect students with experts, providing a learning model that benefits both on and off campus. The program has shown success in making teaching more sustainable by involving multiple people in the process.
Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory created a computer model of the Ford Explorer to simulate 35 mile per hour crash tests. The model will provide information used to assure future, lighter vehicles meet safety requirements, reducing the need for expensive actual crashes.
Research from NASA and the Global Hydrology and Climate Center suggests that the temperature structure of the atmosphere is more complex than previously thought. The study found a slight downward trend in the lower troposphere since 1979, while surface measurements show a warming trend.
A computer model developed by researchers at WashU Medicine suggests that one-time carotid artery screening is beneficial for asymptomatic men with high-risk factors, preventing strokes at a relatively low cost. However, annual screening would be prohibitively expensive and may even increase stroke risk in low-risk individuals.
Researchers developed a model to explain the Earth's inner core rotating faster than the rest of the planet, driven by electromagnetic forces and outer core fluid motions. The model provides insights into the mysterious processes generating the magnetic field deep within the Earth's core.
A researcher has developed a mathematical tool to model trading patterns of stockbrokers by analyzing crowd behavior. This technique, known as Orchid Fractal Analysis, provides highly accurate models of how crowds behave, similar to modeling crowd control at football stadiums.
Researchers study sound waves traveling through the sun to probe its structure and improve solar models. The GONG data show that the sun's core spins at the same rate as its surface, a problem for understanding the solar system's formation.
