Conley Index of Limit Cycles in Filippov Vector Fields
Letícia Cândido, Dahisy Lima, Ketty de Rezende
Within the framework of multivalued dynamical systems, we compute the Conley index for a class of limit cycles in planar Filippov systems. We classify these cycles according to the…
A Social Force Model of the Evacuation from a Big Box Store
Gavin A. Buxton
We include elliptical cross-sections to physically represent people, and irregular polygons to represent wheelchair users, in an anisotropic social force model whose velocity and a…
Epidemiology of the Living Dead: A social Force Model of a Zombie Outbreak
Sydney Balkovitz, Alyssa Croco, Jake Garda +5
We adapt the social force model of crowd dynamics to capture the evacuation during a zombie outbreak from an academic building. Individuals navigate the building, opening doors, an…
Ka-chow! A simple irregular 2D lattice model of lightning
Gavin Buxton
A model of lightning that captures the propagation of lightning channels on an irregular lattice is developed. The irregular lattice allows us to capture large two-dimensional syst…
Using Glowscript to Teach Numerical Modeling in Undergraduate Biology Education
Joshua G. Schreibeis, Olivia M. Merideth, Gavin A. Buxton
Mathematical and numerical modeling is an increasingly important, yet often neglected, topic for biology students. We have found Glowscript to facilitate teaching and introducing c…
The Role that Gaiters, Masks and Face Shields Can Play in Limiting the Transmission of Respiratory Droplets
Gavin A. Buxton, Marcel C. Minutolo
The efficacy of face masks, neck gaiters and face shields are predicted and contrasted. In particular, a Lattice Spring Model of a neck gaiter serves as the input to a Lattice Bolt…
Effects of Membrane Morphology on the Efficiency of Direct Contact Membrane Distillation
Gavin A. Buxton
A computer simulation is used to predict the effects of membrane morphology on the thermal efficiency of direct contact membrane distillation. The mass transfer through the porous…
