Computational modelling and simulations in tourism: A primer

Computational simulations of nanoparticle transport in a three-dimensional capillary network

Objective(s): Multifunctional nanomedicine is the new generation of medicine, which is remarkably promising and associated with the minimum toxicity of targeted therapy. Distribution and transport of nanoparticles (NPs) in the blood flow are essential to the evaluation of delivery efficacy. Materials and Methods: In the present study, we initially designed a phantom based on Murray’s mini...

Kinetic Monte Carlo Simulations: a primer

Direct Monte Carlo simulation evolves according to a stochastic algorithm, so as to explore the entire phase space of the system, i.e., all possible accessible states. Such stochastic attempts at changing the configurations usually have nothing to do with the underlying energy barriers inhibiting (or favoring) such possiblilties. For example, standard Metropolis MC methods applied to systems to...

passivity in waiting for godot and endgame: a psychoanalytic reading

this study intends to investigate samuel beckett’s waiting for godot and endgame under the lacanian psychoanalysis. it begins by explaining the most important concepts of lacanian psychoanalysis. the beckettian characters are studied regarding their state of unconscious, and not the state of consciousness as is common in most beckett studies. according to lacan, language plays the sole role in ...

Modelling and Forecasting Australian Domestic Tourism

In this paper, we model and forecast Australian domestic tourism demand. We use a regression framework to estimate important economic relationships for domestic tourism demand. We also identify the impact of world events such as the 2000 Sydney Olympics and the 2002 Bali bombings on Australian domestic tourism. To explore the time series nature of the data, we use innovation state space models ...
