This paper generalises the Hawk-Dove evolutionary game by introducing cost sharing ratios for both players, and applies the generalised Hawk-Dove model to conflict management in projects through investigating the Rhinestone stability of Nash equilibria.A model with clashing interests between a project owner and a contractor is considered to derive
2-dimensional direct numerical simulation (DNS) of autoignition and flame propagation of turbulent premixed mixture has been conducted to investigate the turbulent combustion mechanism in homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engines.CH4-air mixtures with spatial inhomogeneity of temperature and equivalence ROMPERS ratio are investigated b
In the past decade, methamphetamine (METH) abuse has sharply increased in the United States, East Asia, and Southeast Asia.METH abuse not only leads to serious drug dependence, but also produces irreversible neurotoxicity.Currently, there are no approved pharmacotherapies for the treatment of METH use disorders.Cannabidiol (CBD), a major non-psycho
We report the effects of posture and morphology on the static aerodynamic stability and control effectiveness of physical models based on the feathered dinosaur, [Formula: see text]Microraptor gui, from the Cretaceous of China.Postures had similar lift and drag coefficients and were broadly similar when simplified metrics of gliding were considered
This study investigates prosodic correlates of phrasing in Drehu, an Oceanic language from New Caledonia.The analysis is concerned with the demarcation of prosodic levels in the language, namely the Accentual Phrase and the Intonation Phrase.First impressionistic descriptions of Drehu state there is fixed word initial stress, however recent experim
