SYSTEM DYNAMICS VERSUS CELLULAR AUTOMATA IN MODELLING PANIC SITUATIONS

2008

International audience; In this paper we face system dynamics modelling and cellular automata to model panic processes. We compare both models using phase plans. The results of simulation confirm our hypotheses: First, a collective behaviour is not the arithmetical sum of the individual behaviours. Secondly the crowd causes the emergence of collective panic from individual panic. Both types of methodology produce the emergence of panic and identical curves for different values of initial conditions and parameters. But the effects of thresholds vary according to these values.

Extension des méthodes de géométrie algorithmique aux structures fractales

2013

Defining shapes by iteration allows us to generate new structures with specific properties (roughness,lacunarity), which cannot be achieved with classic modelling.For developing an iterative modeller to design fractals described by a BCIFS, we developed a set oftools and algorithms that permits one to evaluate, to characterize and to analyse different geometricproperties (localisation, convex hull, volume, fractal dimension) of fractals. We identified properties ofstandard CAD operations (intersection, union, offset, . . . ) allowing us to approximate them for fractalsand also to optimize these approximation algorithms.In some cases, it is possible to construct a CIFS with generalised HUTCH…

Geostatistical computing of acoustic maps in the presence of barriers

2009

Acoustic maps are the main diagnostic tools used by authorities for addressing the growing problem of urban acoustic contamination. Geostatistics models phenomena with spatial variation, but restricted to homogeneous prediction regions. The presence of barriers such as buildings introduces discontinuities in prediction areas. In this paper we investigate how to incorporate information of a geographical nature into the process of geostatistical prediction. In addition, we study the use of a Cost-Based distance to quantify the correlation between locations.

Metabolic Profiling of Glucose-Fed Metabolically Active Resting Zymomonas mobilis Strains

2020

Zymomonas mobilis is the most efficient bacterial ethanol producer and its physiology is potentially applicable to industrial-scale bioethanol production. However, compared to other industrially important microorganisms, the Z. mobilis metabolome and adaptation to various nutritional and genetic perturbations have been poorly characterized. For rational metabolic engineering, it is essential to understand how central metabolism and intracellular redox balance are maintained in Z. mobilis under various conditions. In this study, we applied quantitative mass spectrometry-based metabolomics to explore how glucose-fed non-growing Z. mobilis Zm6 cells metabolically adapt to change of oxygen avai…

Analysis of ecological shifts in the two‐age structured population model with Allee effect and environmental noise

2020

We study noise-induced transformations in the two-age structured population model with the Allee effect and environmental fluctuations. In this bistable model, ecological shifts are associated mathematically with random transitions between basins of coexisting attractors. The following phenomena are revealed and studied: (i) noise-induced extinction, (ii) stochastic regeneration, and (iii) excitement of random mixed-mode oscillations. Constructive abilities of the analytical method of confidence domains are demonstrated in the parametric study of these phenomena.

Longitudinal physical activity trajectories from childhood to adulthood and their determinants : The Young Finns Study

2018

Determining lifelong physical activity (PA) trajectories and their determinants is essential to promote a physically active lifestyle throughout the life-course. We aimed to identify PA trajectories from childhood to midlife and their determinants in a longitudinal population-based cohort. This study is a part of the Cardiovascular Risk in Young Finns Study. From 1980, a population-based cohort (N = 3596; 1764 boys/1832 girls, age 3-18 years) has been followed up for 31 years. PA indices were formed based on self-reported data (between age 9-49 years) on frequency, duration, and intensity of leisure (during childhood) or high-intensity (at later age) PA and on sports club participation/comp…

CONFRONTO TRA UN MODELLO DINAMICO ED UNO STAZIONARIO NELLA VALUTAZIONE DELLE PERDITE REALI ED APPARENTI DI UNA RETE DI DISTRIBUZIONE

2012

Nel presente articolo è stato applicato un modello dinamico di simulazione idraulica delle reti di distribuzione per la valutazione delle perdite idriche reali ed apparenti. Sono stati sviluppati uno modello di domanda al nodo che simula i serbatoi privati ed un modulo per la stima delle perdite apparenti. Le perdite reali sono state modellate attraverso una relazione generale che esprime la portata effluente dalla perdita come una funzione della pressione. I risultati ottenuti sono stati confrontati con le stime modellistiche basate su di un approccio stazionario.

Introduction to MIP synthesis, characteristics and analytical application

2019

One of the trends in analytical chemistry is associated with designing and developing new types of sample preparation techniques, which might significantly increase the efficiency and selectivity of the analytes isolation or/and preconcentration process. One of the most widely employed solutions is selective sorption materials, defined as molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), as well as the sorbents with the molecular fingerprint. Due to their simple preparation protocol, mechanical, thermal and chemical stability and selectivity, MIPs have found application as a stationary phase in separation techniques such as liquid chromatography or capillary electrophoresis, in electrochemical sensors…
