چکیده
A characteristic property of nonlinear oscillatory systems is their ability to mode lock to a periodic, external, driving signal. In an n :m mode-locked state, the driven system executes n oscillations to every m oscillations of the driving signal, with a constant phase relationship between the two oscillations. We investigate mode locking for a mathematical model of the cell cycle in budding yeast. We determine which variables are most effective in coupling an external stimulus to the cell cycle oscillator, and speculate about whether experiments are feasible and informative for this model organism.

Pulse Broadening in Injection Mode Locked Tea Co 2 Lasers
Injection mode locking of large-aperture TEA CO 2 lasers makes it possible to generate nanosecond pulses with high intensities [ 1 3 ] . It was shown by Dyer and Perera [6] that by injection mode locking the width of the amplified pulse depends on many variables, such as the width of the injected pulse from the master oscillator and the gas pressure of the slave oscillator. They studied the bro...

We analyze temperature and thermometry for simple nonequilibrium heat-conducting models. We also show in detail, for both twoand three-dimensional systems, that the ideal-gas thermometer corresponds to the concept of a local instantaneous mechanical kinetic temperature. For the 4 models investigated here the mechanical temperature closely approximates the local thermodynamic equilibrium tempera...

A graphic processing unit GPU implementation of the multicomponent lattice Boltzmann equation with multirange interactions for soft-glassy materials “glassy” lattice Boltzmann LB is presented. Performance measurements for flows under shear indicate a GPU/CPU speed up in excess of 10 for 10242 grids. Such significant speed up permits to carry out multimillion time-steps simulations of 10242 grid...

Background Since the success rate in older poor-responder (POR) infertile women is expected to be extremely low irrespective of the treatment protocol, clinicians continue the search for biomarkers which may predict cases in which proceeding with follicle aspiration may be appropriate. Experimental studies on murine model suggest that SCF(Stem- Cell-Factor) produced by ovarian cumulus granulosa...
