However, urbanization can have positive effects on the labor force and economic growth in urban areas unplanned rapid pace of process ultimately lead to unpleasant consequences including marginalization, unemployment, poverty, emergence slums shanty towns prevalence crime areas. Therefore, objective this study was investigate spatial spillover 30 Iranian provinces during period from 2006 2015 u...

We compare different procedures for combining fixed-order tree-level matrixelement generators with parton showers. We use the case of W-production at the Tevatron and the LHC to compare different implementations of the so-called CKKW and MLM schemes using different matrix-element generators and different parton cascades. We find that although similar results are obtained in all cases, there are...

We present here a study of event generators for the hadronic production of Wγ . We compare a NLO Wγ matrix element generator with the leading order calculation in Pythia . A matching scheme between a next-to-leading order Wγ matrix element generator by Baur et. al. and the Pythia parton shower is presented. The NLO package produces Wγ +0 jet and Wγ +1jet final states in the hard scattering and ...

Nature has evolved efficient strategies to synthesize complex mineralized structures that exhibit exceptional damage tolerance. One such example is found in the hypermineralized hammer-like dactyl clubs of the stomatopods, a group of highly aggressive marine crustaceans. The dactyl clubs from one species, Odontodactylus scyllarus, exhibit an impressive set of characteristics adapted for survivi...

INTRODUCTION The media have an important role in maintaining and creating social relations and social environment. This especially refers to the war and post-war period in which the media can form a part of the prevention context, i.e., the media can facilitate the process of recovery from war trauma, but they can also contribute to stigmatization and retraumatization. Our aim was to analyze Cr...

We introduce a novel approach towards Harnack’s inequality in the context of spaces of homogeneous type. This approach, based on the socalled critical density property and doubling properties for weights, avoids the explicit use of covering lemmas and BMO.

The accuracy of time-to-contact (TTC) judgments for single approaching objects is well researched, however, close to nothing is known about our ability to make simultaneous TTC judgments for two or more objects. Such complex judgments are required in many everyday situations, for instance when crossing a multi-lane street or when engaged in multi-player ball games. We used a prediction-motion p...

The authors describe ACT-R/perceptual-motor (ACT-R/PM), an integrated theory of cognition, perception, and action that consists of the ACT-R production system and a set of perceptual-motor modules. Each module (including cognition) is essentially serial, but modules run in parallel with one another. ACT-R/PM can model simple dual tasks such as the psychological refractory period (PRP), includin...

We give new examples of discrete Schrδdinger operators with potentials taking finitely many values that have purely singular continuous spectrum. If the hull X of the potential is strictly ergodic, then the existence of just one potential x in X for which the operator has no eigenvalues implies that there is a generic set in X for which the operator has purely singular continuous spectrum. A su...
