Making use of the system of pulling a spherical intruder in static three-dimensional granular media, we numerically study the scaling law for the drag force $F_{m drag}$ acting on the moving intruder under the influence of the gravity. Suppose if the intruder of diameter $D$ immersed in ...
Understanding the complex interplay between human behavior, disease transmission and non-pharmaceutical interventions during the COVID-19 pandemic could provide valuable insights with which to focus future public health efforts. Cell phone mobility data
The public nature of consumers’ conversations and behaviors on social media platforms has enabled access to rich, highly granular data on both individual consumers as well as the whole market (Berger et al. 2019). Platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and Amazon have enabled visibility to quanti...
Nonadditive entropies have been used as a basis to explain a diversity of phenomena, from astrophysics to the oscillatory behavior of El Niño [1,2,3], from DNA to financial markets [4,5] from high-energy physics of collisions to granular matter and cold atoms [6,7,8], among many ot...
If this lesion is in the form of a base alteration or deletion, it could lead to long-term health issues associated with radiation exposure (most notably, cancer). The physiological effects of radiation-induced DNA damage extend beyond the molecular level, profoundly impacting cellular function ...
While many informal factors influence how people interact, modern societies rely upon law as a primary mechanism to formally control human behaviour. How legal rules impact societal development depends on the interplay between two types of actors: the pe

Understanding the mechanistic effects of novel immunotherapy agents is critical to improving their successful clinical translation. These effects need to be studied in preclinical models that maintain the heterogenous tumor microenvironment (TME) and dys
The value of graph-based big data can be unlocked by exploring the topology and metrics of the networks they represent, and the computational approaches to this exploration take on many forms. For the use-case of performing global computations over a gra
States face a formidable task, so we’ve designed nine elements they could consider when developing their broadband programs. With digital equity serving as a North Star (see sidebar “Embedding equity at every turn”), the goal is to help states make the most of this hist...
