TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the origin of deviations from the classical Darcy law by numerical simulation of the Navier-Stokes equations in two-dimensional disordered porous media and find that such a transition can be understood and statistically characterized in terms of the spatial distribution of kinetic energy in the system.

TL;DR: A novel and important role for the proteoglycans is identified: they stabilize the collagen-elastin network of connective tissues and contribute to lung elasticity and alveolar stability at low to medium lung volumes.

TL;DR: This work calculates the motion of saltating grains by directly solving the turbulent wind field and its interaction with the particles to show that the minimal wind velocity required for saltation on Mars may be surprisingly lower than the aerodynamic minimal threshold measurable in wind tunnels.

TL;DR: In this paper, a translation operator is introduced to describe the quantum dynamics of a position-dependent mass particle in a null or constant potential, which leads to a Schrodinger-like equation that is reminiscent of wave equations typically used to model electrons with positiondependent (effective) masses propagating through abrupt interfaces in semiconductor heterostructures.

TL;DR: It is argued that this particular voting system can be modeled as a typical multiplicative process in which the choice of the candidate is governed by a product of probabilities.
