How do dynamic heterogeneities evolve in time?

چکیده

We present simulations of a hard disc system and analyze the time evolution of the dynamic heterogeneities. We characterize the time evolution of slow regions and slow particles individually. The motion of slow clusters turns out to be very restricted, i.e. a cluster is generated and annihilated in a spatial region four times the size of its maximum extent. The residual motion of the cluster can be traced back to subdiffusive motion of the constituent particles and the process of absorption and loss of adjacent particles. The subdiffusive dynamics is independent of how long the particles remain slow. Clusters of fast particles show an even smaller reach, which seems to be due to their short life time.

Dynamic Pricing with Periodic Review and a Finite set of Prices with Cancellation

In this paper, three dynamic pricing models are developed and analyzed. We assume a limited number of a particular asset is offered for sale over a period of time. This asset is perishable and can be an inventory or a manufacturing capacity. During each period, the seller sets a price for this asset. This price is selected from a predetermined discrete set. The maximum amount which a customer i...

Symmetry-breaking bifurcations and representative firm in dynamic duopoly games

In this paper, we investigate the question of whether the assumption of the “representative agent”, often made in economic modeling, is innocuous or whether it may be misleading under certain circumstances. In order to obtain some insight into this question, two dynamic Cournot duopoly games are considered, whose dynamics are represented by discrete-time dynamical systems. For each of these mod...

Expected Duration of Dynamic Markov PERT Networks

Abstract : In this paper , we apply the stochastic dynamic programming to approximate the mean project completion time in dynamic Markov PERT networks. It is assumed that the activity durations are independent random variables with exponential distributions, but some social and economical problems influence the mean of activity durations. It is also assumed that the social problems evolve in ac...

Multiple length and time scales of dynamic heterogeneities in model glass-forming liquids: a systematic analysis of multi-point and multi-time correlations.

We report an extensive and systematic investigation of the multi-point and multi-time correlation functions to reveal the spatio-temporal structures of dynamic heterogeneities in glass-forming liquids. Molecular dynamics simulations are carried out for the supercooled states of various prototype models of glass-forming liquids such as binary Kob-Andersen, Wahnström, soft-sphere, and network-for...

Quantifying the dynamic transition of hydrogenated castor oil gels measured via multiple particle tracking microrheology.

Rheological modifiers are essential ingredients in commercial materials that exploit facile and repeatable phase transitions. Although rheological modifiers are used to change flow behavior or quiescent stability, the complex properties of particulate gels during dilution is not well studied. We characterize a dynamically evolving colloidal gel, hydrogenated castor oil (HCO), a naturally source...
