A method to perform bosonization of a fermionic theory in (1 + 1) dimensions in a path integral framework is developed. The method relies exclusively on the path integral property of allowing variable shifts, and does not depend on the explicit form of Greens functions. Two examples, the Schwinger model and the massless Thirring model, are worked out. PACS numbers: 11.10.Kk; 11.15.Tk

Objective: Little knowledge is available on the antimicrobial and antioxidant properties of Coccina grandis fruits and no study has reported on its cell proliferative property. The aim of this study was to examine the antimicrobial, antioxidant and cell proliferative property of fruits of C. grandis. Material and Methods: Fruits of C. grandis were extracted using water; ethanol and acetone by c...

In this paper dynamic analysis of multi-directional functionally graded panel is studied using a semi-analytical numerical method entitled the state-space based differential method (SSDQM) and comparative behavior modeling by artificial neural network (ANN) for different parameters. A semi-analytical approach which makes use the three-dimensional elastic theory and assuming the material propert...

quantitative structure-property relationship (qspr) for estimating the adsorption of aliphatic alcohols onto activated carbon were developed using substructural molecular fragments (smf) method. the adsorption capacity of activated carbon (gr/100grc) for 150 aliphatic alcohols onto activated carbon (ac) is studied under equilibrium conditions. forward and backwards stepwise regression variable ...

The present study deals with the analysis of the effects of radiative heat transfer of micropolar fluid flow over a porous and stretching sheet in the presence of magnetic field. The dynamic viscosity and thermal conductivity coefficient have formulated by temperature-dependent relations to obtain more exact results. The flow is supposed two-dimensional, incompressible, steady and laminar and t...

As a renewable building material with low embodied energy characteristics, wood has gained more and more attention in the green and sustainable building industry. In terms of material resource and physical properties, scrimber composite not only makes full use of fast-growing wood species, but also has better mechanical performance and less inherent variability than natural wood material. In th...

Biofilm structure plays an important role in biofilm function and control. It is thus important to determine the extent to which mechanics may determine structure in biofilms. We consider a generic qualitative constitutive description of biofilm incorporating as assumptions a small number of fundamental physical properties of biofilm viscoelasticity and cohesion. Implications of cohesive energy...
