Global and local targeted immunization in networks with community structure
Immunization plays an important role in the field of epidemic spreading in complex networks. In previous studies, targeted immunization has been proved to be an effective strategy. However, when extended to networks with community structure, it is unknown whether the superior strategy is to vaccinate the nodes who have the most connections in the entire network (global strategy), or those in th...
متن کاملGenetic Silencing of Pacemaker Cells: Local Intervention With Global Implications
H eart failure is a major public health epidemic that claims hundreds of thousands of lives annually in the United States alone. Despite important advances in the management and prevention of many cardiovascular disorders, the incidence and prevalence of heart failure are increasing with the aging of the population. Existing treatments for patients with heart failure are far from being optimal ...
متن کاملGeoengineering as an alternative to mitigation: specification and dynamic implications
Geoengineering, i.e. the use of artificial techniques aiming at cooling the planet, is increasingly considered as a realistic alternative to emission mitigation. Several methods are promising for their capacity to quickly halt global warming at a moderate cost. Such cheap technologies might be very beneficial to countries profoundly affected by global warming. In this paper, I propose a dynamic...
متن کاملReduced efficacy of marine cloud brightening geoengineering due to in-plume aerosol coagulation: parameterization and global implications
The intentional enhancement of cloud albedo via controlled sea-spray injection from ships (marine cloud brightening) has been proposed as a possible method to control anthropogenic global warming; however, there remains significant uncertainty in the efficacy of this method due to, amongst other factors, uncertainties in aerosol and cloud microphysics. A major assumption used in recent cloudand...
متن کاملLocal and Global Friction Factor in a Channel with V-Shaped Bottom
This paper presents an experimental research on the distribution of local friction factor, fb, and global friction factor, f, over the cross-section of a channel with V-shaped bottom, which typically occurs in sewers and culverts. Several series of experiments were conducted for measuring velocity and boundary shear stress. It is found that, Darcy-Weisbach, f, is more sensitive than other resis...
