Cognitive ability and computer simulation
… represent a more equitable assessment construct. Computer simulations appear to offer some beneficial attributes for selection purposes, but potential negative effects of GMA assessment may carry over to the new medium. In this study, I successfully used a computer simulated game to approximate …

Computer Simulation of Biological Systems
… using atomistic modelling and molecular dynamics simulation. The work is focused on: (a) the study of the interaction between a segment of a DNA molecule and a functionalized surface; (b) the dynamical modelling of protein tau, an intrinsically disordered protein. We briefly describe here the two …

Computer Simulation of Language Evolution
… change. Chapter 3 gives an overview of the simulation model and the details of implementation. Chapter 4 provides an analysis of the model’s parameters and discusses the results observable for the ‘basic’ implementation. Chapter 5 describes the setup and outcomes of genuinely novel …

Mine delivery model: a computer simulation
The Mine Delivery Model is a Monte Carlo computer simulation of the delivery of mines in detail by ships, submarines^ and/or aircraft. Inputs are of such a nature as to permit the simulated execution of any specific mining plan and the outputs provide sufficient information for subsequent …

Computer simulation of micelle self-assembly.
… systems studied using Monte Carlo simulations. This model builds upon previous models [1-11] allowing for a longer am-phiphilic head group and the inclusion of a second, different amphiphile. Detailed simulations are run using both a single amphiphile and double amphiphile model to …

Computer simulation of rod-sphere mixtures.
Results are presented from a series of simulations undertaken to investigate the effect of adding small spherical particles to a fluid of rods which would otherwise represent a liquid crystalline (LC) substance. Firstly, a bulk mixture of Hard Gaussian Overlap particles with an aspect ratio of 3:1 …

Computer simulation studies of magnetic nanostructures
… and Brown's equations in three dimensions. Simulations of basic geometric primitives such as cylinders and spheres of sub-micron size orders provide hysteresis loops of the average magnetisation, and additionally our computations allow the study of the microscopic configuration of the …

Computer simulation of fire-sprinkler interaction
… scenarios. This involved the numerical simulation of two-phase, three-dimensional, buoyant, turbulent, recirculating flows. The simulations were carried out in two successive and distinct stages. The first stage dealt with the modelling of buoyant hot turbulent gas flows generated by a …

Computer-Simulation-Assisted Lean Manufacturing Training
<p>This thesis assesses the potential of using computer simulation to aid existing lean manufacturing training methods such as lecture and live simulation. An investigation of this possibility was carried out in conjunction with UMEP's Lean 101 class. In the study, two experimental computer …

Computer simulation applied to parcel conveyors
… the Post Office is used for the development of a computer-based simulation model. An important problem in parcel conveying is the variability in size, shape and homogeneity of parcels, which may lead to conveyor jamming. Because of statutory requirements for parcel handling by the Royal Mail, it …

Fundamental Theory of Scientific Computer Simulation Review
… is required to trust the results of a scientific computer simulation when human lives are at stake?" For many, this question is purely academic. But for those dealing with high consequence simulations, such as the simulations performed to demonstrate the safety of a nuclear power plant, the …

Computer simulation of electromigration in microelectronics interconnect
… joints with diminishing sizes. In this work, computer simulation methods have been used to analyse the experimentally observed EM process in a thin film solder. The experiment was designed in such a way that effects of temperature and stress gradients can be avoided. The advantage of this …

Computer simulation of titration behavior in proteins
The pH dependent properties of proteins can be successfully modeled using continuum electrostatic methods provided that a sufficiently detailed and accurate model of the protein system is used. In this work, the effects of conformational changes on calculated pK$\rm\sb{a}$ values in peptide and …
