Subaqueous “yardangs”: Analogs for aeolian yardang evolution
[1] Landforms, morphologically similar to aeolian yardangs but formed by erosion of bedrock by currents on an estuarine rock platform, are described for the first time. The geometries of the “yardangs” are described and related to semi-lemniscate shapes that minimize hydraulic drag. The processes of bedrock erosion by the reversing sedimentladen tidal currents are described, and a semi-quantita...
متن کاملOn the Mechanisms behind Chaos
Chaotic systems are observed everywhere. Electronic circuit analogues based on the differential equations of the models for the chaotic systems are often used to study the nature of chaotic systems. This tutorial is an attempt to classify electronic chaotic oscillators according to the mechanism behind the chaotic behaviour, e.g. one group is based on the sudden interrupt of inductive currents ...
متن کاملThe mechanisms behind helminth's immunomodulation in autoimmunity.
The incidence of autoimmune diseases has risen throughout the last half a century, mostly in the industrialized world. Helminths and their derivatives were found to have a protective role in autoimmunity and inflammatory conditions, as they manipulate the immune network, attenuating the host's cellular and humoral responses. Indeed, various helminth species used in several human and animal mode...
متن کاملThe Mathematical Modeling behind Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
We look at a mathematical model for the role of the immune system in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. A linear stability analysis is used on a set of differential equations to determine stable and unstable states. These states are a basis for investigation into possible therapeutic treatments. Acknowledgements: I would like to thank Dr. Robert Styer for his encouragement and mentoring throughout th...
متن کاملDune-Yardang Interactions in Becquerel Crater, Mars.
Isolated landscapes largely shaped by aeolian processes can occur on Earth, while the majority of Mars' recent history has been dominated by wind-driven activity. Resultantly, Martian landscapes often exhibit large-scale aeolian features, including yardang landforms carved from sedimentary-layered deposits. High-resolution orbital monitoring has revealed that persistent bedform activity is occu...
