Modelling nonlinear information behaviour: transferability and progression
Purpose: This paper reports on a project aimed at moving Foster’s Nonlinear Model of Information Seeking Behaviour forwards from an empirically based model focussed on one setting and towards one that is robustly transferable and enables testing of the model in other information seeking situations. Methodology: The method utilised recoding of the original dataset, comparison of code decisions, ...
متن کاملNonlinear Modelling and Identification of Torsional Behaviour in Harmonic Drives
The demand for accurate and reliable positioning in industrial applications, especially in robotics and high-precision machines, has led to the increased use of Harmonic Drives. The unique performance features of harmonic drives, such as high reduction ratio and high torque capacity in a compact geometry, justify their widespread application. However, nonlinear torsional compliance and friction...
متن کاملNumerical modelling of nonlinear behaviour of soft biological materials
Biological materials such as, for instance, the human skin, brain tissue, papillary muscles, and arteries are often characterized as nonlinear elastic materials. Various attempts at characterizing a strain-energy density function for such materials have been made.1-4 In normal physiological functioning, as well as in inadvertent circumstances such as injuries, these materials are subject to fin...
متن کاملAdaptive information retrieval system via modelling user behaviour
There has been an exponential growth in the volume and variety of information available on the Internet, similarly there has been a significant demand from users’ for accurate information that matches their interests, however, the two are often incompatible because of the effectiveness of retrieving the exact information the user requires. This paper addresses this problem with an adaptive agen...
متن کاملModelling Tumor-induced Angiogenesis: Combination of Stochastic Sprout Spacing and Sprout Progression
Background: Angiogenesis initiated by cancerous cells is the process by which new blood vessels are formed to enhance oxygenation and growth of tumor. Objective: In this paper, we present a new multiscale mathematical model for the formation of a vascular network in tumor angiogenesis process. Methods: Our model couples an improved sprout spacing model as a stochastic mathematical model of spro...
