Fast Surface Particle Repulsion
A fast algorithm for simulating particle repulsion on surfaces is described. Particles are distributed across a surface and made to repel. Calculating pairwise repulsion between n particles costs O(n2) in general, but if the energy potential drops off very rapidly, repulsion can be simulated in O(n) time. This is accomplished using a simple grid data structure with spherical range queries. Part...
متن کاملOn Gravitational Repulsion
The concepts of negative gravitational mass and gravitational repulsion are alien to general relativity. Still, we show here that small negative fluctuations small dimples in the primordial density field that act as if they have an effective negative gravitational mass, play a dominant role in shaping our Universe. These initially tiny perturbations repel matter surrounding them, expand and gro...
متن کاملPattern Repulsion Revisited
Marques and Almeida [9] recently proposed a nonlinear data seperation technique based on the maximum entropy principle of Bell and Sejnowsky. The idea behind is a pattern repulsion model alluding to repulsion of physical particles in a restricted system which leads to a uniform distribution, hence a maximum entropy, under certain conditions to the energy function. In this paper, we want to revi...
متن کاملCurvature and Cosmic Repulsion *
Some recent supernovae studies have extended the distance versus velocity Hubble plot to very high redshift, and have revealed the apparent presence of a cosmic repulsion. We show that such a repulsion has a natural origin within conformal gravity, a fully covariant candidate alternative to standard gravity, and that it arises from the gravitational field itself via the negative spatial curvatu...
متن کاملMotion repulsion is monocular
Motion repulsion is the illusory enlargement of the angle between objects moving in two different directions of motion. Previous work suggests that motion repulsion occurs under dichoptic conditions, and therefore is binocular. In reference repulsion the direction of motion is misperceived even if only a single direction of motion is presented. In an experiment I show that repulsion under dicho...
