ecological destruction in human-dominated landscapes has significant impacts on environment sustainability internationally. landscape planning can play a role in mitigating the effects of human-related activities. one element of landscape planning involves the analysis of the biological, spatial and social arrangement of areas in an urban environment and identifying characteristics that are und...

A Wigner function model of early time carrierphonon dynamics of non-equilibrium carriers confined in nanowire is explored. The presented simulation results reveal effects of collisional broadening, retardation, ultrafast spatial transfer and the intracollisional field effect. These effects characterize thermal relaxation processes which are beyond the Boltzmann assumptions for temporal and spat...

We study non-equilibrium spatial self-organization in cold atomic gases, where long-range spatial order spontaneously emerges from fluctuations in the plane transverse to the propagation axis of a single optical beam. The self-organization process can be interpreted as a synchronization transition in a fully connected network of fictitious oscillators, and described in terms of the Kuramoto model.

In this paper, the electro-thermal model of Lithium-ion battery for electric vehicles and its related application were studied. The spatial variations of electrode parameter and the reaction heat generated inside battery must be considered when developing an electro-thermal model of Lithium-ion battery for electric vehicles, to ensure the applicability of the developed model under different ope...

This paper studies the usefulness of the P-model in the analysis of the behaviour of prices in Iranian economy. The P-model is based on the Quantity of Theory of Money. This model believes that the price level tends to move towards the equilibrium price level. The model uses price gap to forecast inflation, if the equilibrium price is greater than the current price, there is a tendency for the ...

using the quarterly data of 1990:1 to 2008:1 and in a general equilibrium approach, we investigate the long run equilibrium path of the equilibrium interest rate as well as the potential output. we implement a structural reduced form of a general equilibrium model consistent with iran’s economy and estimate the unobservable variables by employing the kalman filtering technique. a exponential ut...

This paper reviews the predictions and management implications of two current paradigms in the ecology and management of arid and semi-arid rangelands. The equilibrium model stresses the importance of biotic feedbacks such as density-dependent regulation of livestock populations and the feedback of livestock density on vegetation composition, cover and productivity. Range management under this ...

In this study, we extend the mechanistic equilibrium saltation model of Ashida and Michiue (1972) for nearly horizontal sand beds to the case of spatial nonequilibrium sand transport, which allows us to calculate sand transport rates over varying mildly-sloped topographies. Our model incorporates a generalized description of the reduction of the Shields stress within the saltation layer due to ...

We consider the explicit introduction of firms’ choice of location to Varian’s model of sales for a two-stage spatial competition model based on a standard Hotelling’s linear city model. This model is the formalization of Varian’s model of sales in the context of Hotelling’s spatial competition. We obtain three main results. First, we show that there exists a symmetric subgame perfect equilibri...
