Cancer dissemination: a consequence of limited carrying capacity?
Assuming that there is feedback between an expanding cancer system and its organ-typical microenvironment, we argue here that such local tumor growth is initially guided by co-existence rather than competition with the surrounding tissue. We then present a novel concept that understands cancer dissemination as a biological mechanism to evade the specific carrying capacity limit of its host orga...
متن کاملLoad Carrying Capacity of Simply Supported Variable Thickness Circular Plates
The calculation of the load carrying capacity of variable thickness circular plates subjected to arbitrary rotational symmetric loading is presented. The analysis considers plate materials that obey either the square or the Tresca yield criterion. By using upper and lower bound theorems of limit analysis, corresponding estimations for the load carrying capacity of the plate are obtained. It is ...
متن کاملEvaluating total carrying capacity of tourism using impact indicators
The carrying capacity is well identified tool to manage problems due to uncontrolled tourism for any destination. This report highlights the carrying capacity estimation of Kerwa tourism area, Bhopal, India. The methodology used in this report is a new two-tier mechanism of impact analysis using index numbers derived from a survey of 123 stakeholders. From this the individual component impact a...
متن کاملOptimal Trajectory of Flexible Manipulator with Maximum Load Carrying Capacity
In this paper, a new formulation along with numerical solution for the problem of finding a point-to-point trajectory with maximum load carrying capacities for flexible manipulators is proposed. For rigid manipulators, the major limiting factor in determining the Dynamic Load Carrying Capacity (DLCC) is the joint actuator capacity. The flexibility exhibited by light weight robots or by robots o...
متن کاملGeneralized model of blockage in particulate flow limited by channel carrying capacity.
We investigate stochastic models of particles entering a channel with a random time distribution. When the number of particles present in the channel exceeds a critical value N, a blockage occurs and the particle flux is definitively interrupted. By introducing an integral representation of the n-particle survival probabilities, we obtain exact expressions for the survival probability, the dist...
