Particles : Dynamics vs

چکیده

As the glosses above make clear, the particles have no truth-conditional effects: adding a particle never changes the truth value of a sentence. Despite this lack of truth-conditional content, they are omnipresent in spoken discourse. Nevertheless, they are difficult to paraphrase, and in fact rather unclear in meaning, despite a great deal of research on them (see e.g. Takubo and Kinsui 1997; Noda 2002; Moriyama 2001, among many others). The goal of the present paper is as follows. The vast majority of work on the particles has been informal in nature. I want to consider two possible formal accounts of their meaning. In many cases, it is hard to see how a given author conceptualizes the particle meanings because of lack of formalization. In the case of particles, the meanings in question are so subtle that it can be difficult to follow explanations couched in ordinary language. I therefore hope

Removal of Heavy Metal Particles by LTJ, ANA, SVR, BEC and MER zeolites particles: A Molecular Dynamics Simulation Study

In present study, molecular dynamics simulation of Cadmium (II), Lead (II) and Copper (II) removal from aqueous electrolyte solutions using the ion-exchange process with the zeolite particles was done. The results showed that, most of the particles had the highest affinity of ion exchanging with Lead (II) and the lowest affinity with Copper (II). The calculated mean ion-exchange ratios showed t...

Non-Equilibruim Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Poiseuille Flow in a Nanochannel

The numerical simulation of a Poiseuille flow in a narrow channel using the molecular dynamics simulation (MDS) is performed. Poiseuille flow of liquid Argon in a nanochannel is simulated by embedding the fluid particles in a uniform force field. Density, velocity and Temperature profiles across the channel are investigated. When particles will be inserted into the flow, it is expected that the...

Wall Effect in 3D Simulation Of Same Sized Particles Packing

In this paper, the effects of container size on the porosity of random loose packing of mono size particles have been investigated using an Event Dynamics (ED) based model. Simultaneous effects of square container walls on particles packing and their order are also investigated. Our simulation results indicate higher container size will increase the total packing factor and high density regions...

Dissipative Particle Dynamics simulation hydrated Nafion EW 1200 as fuel cell membrane in nanoscopic scale

The microphase separation of hydrated perfluorinated sulfonic acid membrane Nafion was investigated using Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD). The nafion as a polymer was modelled by connecting coarse grained beads which corresponds to the hydrophobic backbone of polytetrafluoroethylene and perfluorinated side chains terminated by hydrophilic end particles of sulfonic acid groups [1, 2]. Each f...
