We describe the application of the umbrella sampling technique well known from equilibrium Monte Carlo to dynamical, non-equilibrium simulations. This method is used specifically to calculate the nucleation barrier of Brownian Yukawa particles in a homogeneous shear flow.  2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

in order to investigate the effect of irrigation and nitrogen fertilizer on yield and yield components of (anethum graveolens l.), a field experiment was performed in agricultural research farm of the university of tabriz, iran, during growing season of 2009-2010. the experiment was carried out as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications. irrigation treatment...

We review uses of the generalized-ensemble algorithms for free-energy calculations in protein folding. Two of the well-known methods are multicanonical algorithm and replicaexchange method; the latter is also referred to as parallel tempering. We present a new generalized-ensemble algorithm that combines the merits of the two methods; it is referred to as the replica-exchange multicanonical alg...

In this paper, a test procedure based on Gini’s mean difference for testing homogeneity of scale parameters against umbrella ordered alternative with at least one strict inequality, when peak of the umbrella is known, is proposed. The exact critical points through simulation are computed for the proposed test in case of standard exponential, standard logistic and standard uniform distributions;...

The purpose of this paper is to conduct an umbrella review systematic literature reviews sustainable business model innovation. Despite its relative novelty, innovation a multifaceted phenomenon. Our aim capture the different manifestations and organise their antecedents outcomes into integrative framework. Web Science database was used identify existing reviews. final sample for analysis compr...
