Sampling-based algorithms solve the path planning problem by generating random samples in the search-space and incrementally growing a connectivity graph or a tree. Conventionally, the sampling strategy used in these algorithms is biased…
Oscillatory Zoning (OZ) is a phenomenon exhibited by many geologically formed crystals. It is characterized by quasi periodic oscillations in the composition of a solid solution, caused by self-organization. We present a new model for OZ.…
Small edge-localized-mode (ELM), similar to the quasi-continuous exhaust (QCE), has been achieved by increasing the density at the separatrix. Starting from the Type-I ELM experimental data in EAST, we have performed a numerical separatrix…
Recent experiments (R. A. Baragiola and C. A. Dukes, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 76}, 2547 (1996)) with slow ions incident at grazing angle on metal surfaces have shown that bulk plasmons are excited under conditions where the ions do not…
London's polarization model is extended over a wide range of VdW attraction. At low temperature the VdW attraction is the main competitor to the Casimir force. As the temperature is raised, the VdW force decreases by virtue of the…

In this paper, we study a model for the transport of an external component, e.g., a surfactant, in variably saturated porous media. We discretize the model in time and space by combining a backward Euler method with the linear Galerkin…
