Among the causes associated with the variability in the mean wind velocity required for the transition of regimes in the stable boundary layer (SBL) in differente sites, are local characteristics of the experimental site, ...

This paper provides a typology for the analysis of markets in which new innovations have the potential to cause regime transition. We elaborate the typology of transition pathways (Geels and Schot, 2007) into a typology ...

Scholars disagree about the nature of the political regime that Hugo Chávez established in Venezuela after he came to power in 1999.But in the last few years, despite existing disagreements, it has become more common to ...

In the unlubricated sliding wear of steels the mild-severe and severe-mild wear transitions have long been investigated. The effect of system inputs such as normal load, sliding speed, environment humidity and temperature, ...

The bounded dynamics of a system of two coupled piecewise affine and chaotic Lorenz maps is studied over the coupling range, from the uncoupled regime where the entropy is maximal, to the synchronized regime where the ...

Fine-grained sediment (grain size under 2,000 μm) builds floodplains and deltas, and shapes the coastlines where much of humanity lives. However, a universal, physically based predictor of sediment flux for fine-grained ...
