Bacterial motility was recognized 300 years ago. Throughout this history, research into
motility has led to advances in microbiology and physics. Thirty years ago, this union helped …

Many high concrete face rockfill dams (CFRDs) have been constructed in earthquake-prone
areas in recent years, and it is essential to evaluate the seismic safety performance of these …

Providing an introduction to the theory of nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations, this book
discusses fundamental properties of transient and stationary solutions, emphasizing the …

The domain of non-extensive thermostatistics has been subject to intensive research over
the past twenty years and has matured significantly. Generalised Thermostatistics cuts …

The formalism of statistical mechanics can be generalised by starting from more general
measures of information than the Shannon entropy and maximising those subject to suitable …

We perform a detailed study of the relaxation towards equilibrium in the Hamiltonian Mean-
Field model, a prototype for long-range interactions in N-particle dynamics. In particular, we …

We show through a nonlinear Fokker-Planck formalism, and confirm by molecular dynamics
simulations, that the overdamped motion of interacting particles at T= 0, where T is the …

We study a general class of nonlinear mean field Fokker-Planck equations in relation with
an effective generalized thermodynamical (EGT) formalism. We show that these equations …

In this work, we study the formal connections between the non-linear Fokker-Planck
Equation associated with the non-additive entropy and the Boltzmann Equation with the non …

Abstract Space observations provide a clear signature of non-Maxwellian core-halo electron
and ion-velocity distribution functions as an ubiquitous and persistent feature of …
