description: A geo-marketplace allows users to be paid for their location data. Users concerned about privacy may want to charge more for data that pinpoints their location accurately, but may charge less for data that is more vague. A buyer would prefer to minimize data costs, but may have to spend more to get the necessary level of accuracy. We call this interplay between privacy, utility, and price \emph{spatial privacy pricing}. We formalize the issues mathematically with an example problem of a buyer deciding whether or not to open a restaurant by purchasing location data to determine if the potential number of customers is sufficient to open. The problem is expressed as a sequential decision making problem, where the buyer first makes a series of decisions about which data to buy and concludes with a decision about opening the restaurant or not. We present two algorithms to solve this problem, including experiments that show they perform better than baselines.

description: We present four high performance hybrid sorting methods developed for various parallel platforms: shared memory multiprocessors, distributed multiprocessors, and clusters taking advantage of existence of both shared and distributed memory. Merge sort, known for its stability, is used to design several of our algorithms. We improve its parallel performance by combining it with Quicksort. We present two models designed for shared memory MIMD (OpenMP): (a) a non-recursive Merge sort and (b) a hybrid Quicksort and Merge sort. The third model presented is designed for distributed memory MIMD (MPI) using a hybrid Quicksort and Merge sort. Our fourth model is designed to take advantage of the shared memory within individual nodes of todays cluster systems, and to eliminate all internal data transfers between different nodes, Our model implements a one-step MSD-Radix to distribute data in ten packets (MPI) while parallel cores of each node use Quicksort to sort their data partitions sequentially then merge and sort them in parallel employing the OpenMp. The performances of all developed models outperform the baseline performance. Hybrid Quicksort and Merge sort outperformed Hybrid Memory Parallel Merge Sort using Hybrid MSD-Radix and Quicksort in Cluster Platforms when sorting small size data, but with larger data the speedup of Hybrid Memory Parallel Merge Sort Using Hybrid MSD-Radix and Quicksort in Cluster Platforms becomes bigger and it keeps improving. The speedup of Distributed Memory Parallel Hybrid Quicksort and Merge Sort is the best.

description: Il significato più comune e condiviso del termine governance si riferisce alla capacità della pubblica amministrazione di gestire e dirigere network, coinvolgendo attori pubblici e privati di varia natura in processi politico-decisionali, promuovendo il dialogo, la condivisione di responsabilità, la partecipazione e il coordinamento di molti attori a molti livelli. Modalità organizzative e d’interazione tra i vari soggetti che siano in grado di garantire una “buona governance”, soprattutto in relazione all’uso delle risorse naturali e a alla valorizzazione del capitale sociale, stanno diventando fattori chiave nello sviluppo rurale. Il concetto di “buona governance” riflette la crescente domanda espressa dalla società civile di maggior partecipazione dei vari portatori d’interesse nei processi decisionali; di maggior trasparenza e collaborazione tra i soggetti, anche con l’obiettivo di un apprendimento collaborativo e di miglioramento delle proprie capacità; nonché di una maggior responsabilità ambientale e sociale, anche con l’obiettivo di scelte collettive in grado di garantire la sostenibilità. Un’adeguata valutazione della qualità della governance è un utile strumento di supporto decisionale, nelle fasi di formulazione, attuazione e revisione delle politiche pubbliche e dei progetti di sviluppo locale dei territori rurali. Tuttavia, negli attuali strumenti di monitoraggio e valutazione delle politiche di sviluppo rurale e dei loro impatti si sono riscontrati limiti notevoli specie quando oggetto della valutazione sono i progetti di sviluppo locale ed i relativi soggetti attuatori. La governance, nello specifico della tutela e gestione delle risorse naturali, costituisce un capitolo essenziale della cosiddetta bio-economia, e gli indicatori proposti a questo fine sono tutti ispirati al mantenimento dell’energia, e più in generale delle risorse naturali, nella prospettiva di una sostenibilità del sistema socio-economico anche a livello locale Il presente contributo intende illustrare un metodo di valutazione della qualità della governance locale in ambiti rurali, attraverso un originale set di indicatori testati in alcune realtà territoriali.

description: This work studies the impact of economic inequality on the evolution of intolerance through a reputation-based model of indirect reciprocity. Results show that economic inequality is a powerful enhancer of intolerance, inducing the escalation of out-group discrimination even without the presence of new intolerant mutants. It also generates behavior modifications within tolerant disfavored minorities: their members either relax punishments against the uncooperative or prioritize helping the wealthy, even suffering discrimination in return. On the other hand, the redistribution of wealth is proved as a viable solution to avoid the spread of intolerance as long as it increases equality and is implemented before intolerance permeates part of the population.

description: Gli effetti dei cambiamenti climatici (CC), sebbene soltanto vagamente ipotizzati qualche decennio fa, hanno cominciato a manifestarsi negli ultimi anni facendo emergere la vulnerabilità soprattutto del settore agricolo. Mentre le indicazioni politiche internazionali promuovono azioni congiunte di lungo periodo volte all’adozione di misure di mitigazione dei CC (riduzione dei gas serra), non sono ancora state chiaramente definite efficaci misure di adattamento di breve periodo, soprattutto per le problematiche connesse alla scarsità idrica. Questo lavoro contribuisce al dibattito in corso sulla politica di adattamento ai CC nel settore agricolo italiano nel contesto sia della pianificazione della Politica Agricola Comune nel periodo 2014-2020 sia dell’attuazione della Direttiva Quadro delle Acque 2000/60/CE , proponendo un’analisi di fattibilità tecnico-economica del riutilizzo irriguo delle acque reflue depurate (RI) in Val Padana associato all’adeguamento dei depuratori e delle reti idriche. L’analisi tecnica è stata condotta utilizzando un sistema geografico di supporto alle decisioni di tipo multicriteriale implementato attraverso una scelta ponderata dei fattori che maggiormente influiscono sulla potenziale realizzazione della misura. Gli attributi sono stati scelti in base alla idrografia del territorio, la vulnerabilità ai nitrati, il clima previsto al 2050, il grado di urbanizzazione e le caratteristiche della rete irrigua. I vincoli definiti nel modello tengono conto della distanza dagli impianti di depurazione, il fabbisogno idrico e il sistema irriguo aziendale. I risultati suggeriscono che, sulla maggior parte dell’area, il RI è fattibile a condizione che i depuratori siano dotati di trattamento terziario e che siano in uso sistemi di microirrigazione. Nelle aree idonee, quindi, si è proceduto all’analisi costi-benefici tenendo in considerazione i costi di investimento per l’adattamento dei depuratori idonei e delle reti idriche associate e i benefici derivanti dal più alto valore d’uso alternativo della risorsa convenzionale risparmiata. L’analisi evidenzia benefici annuali nettamente superiore ai costi

description: La ricerca sulla percezione dell’impiego delle nanotecnologie nei diversi settori industriali ha importanti riflessi in termini economici e politici; nel settore agroalimentare esistono numerosi dibattiti sull’impiego delle nanotecnologie: la regolamentazione normativa è oggetto di discussione da parte di scienziati e comitati tecnici; anche l’opinione pubblica avrà un ruolo determinante in questo processo. Obiettivo del presente lavoro è di esaminare l’accettazione delle’uso delle nanotecnologie nei consumatori di vino; l’indagine è stata effettuata su un campione di consumatori abruzzesi ed utilizzando come prodotto di riferimento la più importante denominazione di origine a livello regionale, il Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Doc. Il settore vitivinicolo abruzzese è stato preso come interessante modello, perché radicato nella tradizione e costretto a confrontarsi con il dualismo “tradizione - innovazione tecnologica” legato alle possibili applicazioni nano-tecnologiche. Per questo motivo sono stati analizzati attributi legati al metodo di produzione (tradizionale o attraverso l’applicazione delle nanotecnologie) e attributi del prodotto quali il contenuto alcolico, il contenuto calorico e il contenuto di solfiti, che mettono in gioco gli aspetti salutistici del prodotto ma anche quelli edonistici e di “naturalità”. Lo studio ha analizzato le preferenze dei consumatori, applicando la tecnica della conjoint analysis, e tentato di classificare i consumatori di vino in base alle attitudini verso l’uso delle nanotecnologie attraverso una regressione logistica. Sono state considerate sia le attitudini verso le nanotecnologie sia le abitudini di consumo

Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)

description: Background: Nuclear radius is one of the most important and basic properties of atomic nuclei and its evolution is closely related to the saturation of the nuclear density in the internal region but the systematics of the nuclear radii for the neutron-rich unstable nuclei is not well known. Purpose: Motivated by the recent interaction cross section measurement which indicates the 48Ca core swelling in the neutron-rich Ca isotopes, we explore the mechanism of the enhancement of the neutron and proton radii for spherical nuclei. Methods: Microscopic Hartree-Fock calculations with three sets of Skyrme-type effective interactions are performed for the neutron-rich Ca, Ni and Sn isotopes. The total reaction cross sections for the Ca isotopes are evaluated with the Glauber model to compare them with the recent cross section data. Results: We obtain good agreement with the measured cross sections and charge radii. The neutron and proton radii of the various "core" configurations are extracted from the full Hartree-Fock calculation and discuss the core swelling mechanism. Conclusions: The core swelling phenomena occur depending on the properties of the occupying valence single-neutron states to minimize the energy loss that comes from the saturation of the densities in the internal region, which appears to be prominent in light nuclei such as Ca isotopes.

Planar versus non-planar anti-NN annihilation into mesons in the light of anti-qq operators and the 1/Nc expansion

description: It is argued that in the antiproton-proton annihilation into two mesons $\bar pp\longrightarrow m_1 m_2$, the origin of different restrictive angular momentum selection rules commonly obtained for planar annihilation diagrams $A2$ and for non-planar rearrangement diagrams $R2$ lies in the omission of momentum transfer between an annihilated antiquark-quark pair and a remaining quark or antiquark. If it is included, there is no reason for dismissing one type of diagram in favor of another one. Some considerations in the large $N_c$ limit of QCD equally shed light on the planar and non-planar contributions to the total $\bar NN\to m_1 m_2$ annihilation amplitude.

description: Molti studi analizzano il rapporto tra produzione agricola ed emissioni di gas serrra. Nella quantificazione dell’impatto ambientale del settore aagroalimentare, in termini di gas serra, si sta affermando la metodologia del Life Cycle Assesment (LCA) normata dalle ISO 14040 e 14044. Tra i diversi i risultati, l’analisi LCA determina l’Impronta Carbonica (C Carbon Footprint), derivante dagli utilizzi di materia ed energia nelle fasi di produzione, trasformazione, distribuzione, consumo e smaltimento di un prodootto agroalimentare. La metodologia LCA considera l’attività agricola come un processo industriale e, concentrandosi sulla determinazione delle emissioni per i singoli fattori immessi nei processi produtt tivi e non considerando l’intrinseca capacità delle strutture agro-ecosistemiche di assorbire CO2. Sarebbe opportuno tenere in consiiderazione l’enorme varietà di comportamento dei sistemi suolo-pianta determinata dalla molteplicità delle categorie colturali e pedoclimatiche, dall’aleatorietà dei diversi fattori che influenzano l’attività fotosintetica e dalle diverse modalità di gestione tecnica dei processi. A questo proposito la metodologia del Bilancio Ecologico (Ecological Balance), ideato per stimare l’impatto ambientale - e quindi la sostenibilità - dei processi di produzione e consumo che insistono su un territorio, sembra prestarsi, con le dovute modifiche, all’analisi delle performance ambientali di un sistema di produzione agricolo. Il presente contributo propone un primo test di applicazione di tale approccio alla valutazione del bilancio ambientale delle coltivazioni agricole, illustrando la metodologia di valutazione e una prima applicazione empirica alla coltivazione del frumento duro.
A multiple regression model for predicting the energy requirements of marine mammals
Creators: name: Hunter, Andrea Margaret Jetske
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Marine ecosystem management has prompted the need for better understanding of the impact of marine mammals in the oceans. Using the wealth of information available in the literature, a rule-based multiple regression model was developed to estimate the energy requirements of all 124 marine mammal species. This meta-analysis modelling framework provided a simple means for estimating the energetics (metabolism or consumption) of marine mammals under varying conditions, as a function of easily obtained or estimated physiological and environmental variables, including morphology, developmental stage, growth, sex, reproductive status, health, activity, postabsorptive state, thermoneutral condition, and season. Based on different combinations of input variables, a set of empirical equations was developed. The empirical equations provide an objective predictive tool for estimating the energy requirements of data-deficient marine mammal species. Extensive model validation indicated that all models were robust to their statistical assumptions, including phylogenetic independence, and captured a substantial amount of the observed heterogeneity in energy requirements (up to 82% residual variance). Equations also synthesize evidence of a uniform pattern of energy use, from consumption to expenditure, and provide quantitative rough estimates of the components of the bioenergetic framework for all marine mammal species. Results suggest that body mass is a better predictor of energy requirements than body length, although length may be used in circumstances when mass cannot be estimated or measured. Of the parameters considered, model predictions were most sensitive to uncertainty in morphology, developmental stage, activity, and growth. By including flexibility in prediction and uncertainty in estimates, results extend the simple allometric scaling relationships with mass alone (e.g., Kleiber's Equation), and refine estimates of marine mammal energy requirements currently available. Results serve as a useful starting point from which complex analyses can proceed, and provide a basis against which other models can be compared. The method provides an objective means for researchers and resource managers to select an equation most appropriate for their predictive needs, even for data-deficient species, given different levels of available input information. The empirical models are useful tools for parameterizing ecosystem models and can be used to help address ecological questions and issues pertaining to conservation and resource management.

description: We study the model of interacting agents proposed by Chatterjee et al that allows agents to both save and exchange wealth. Closed equations for the wealth distribution are developed using a mean field approximation. We show that when all agents have the same fixed savings propensity, subject to certain well defined approximations defined in the text, these equations yield the conjecture proposed by Chatterjee for the form of the stationary agent wealth distribution. If the savings propensity for the equations is chosen according to some random distribution we show further that the wealth distribution for large values of wealth displays a Pareto like power law tail, ie P(w)\sim w^{1+a}. However the value of $a$ for the model is exactly 1. Exact numerical simulations for the model illustrate how, as the savings distribution function narrows to zero, the wealth distribution changes from a Pareto form to to an exponential function. Intermediate regions of wealth may be approximately described by a power law with $a>1$. However the value never reaches values of \~ 1.6-1.7 that characterise empirical wealth data. This conclusion is not changed if three body agent exchange processes are allowed. We conclude that other mechanisms are required if the model is to agree with empirical wealth data.

description: On January 1st 2019, the New Horizons spacecraft flew by the classical Kuiper belt object (486958) Arrokoth (provisionally designated 2014 MU69), possibly the most primitive object ever explored by a spacecraft. The I/F of Arrokoth is analyzed and fit with a photometric function that is a linear combination of the Lommel-Seeliger (lunar) and Lambert photometric functions. Arrokoth has a geometric albedo of p_V = 0.21_(-0.04)^(+0.05) at a wavelength of 550 nm and ~0.24 at 610 nm. Arrokoth's geometric albedo is greater than the median but consistent with a distribution of cold classical Kuiper belt objects whose geometric albedos were determined by fitting a thermal model to radiometric observations. Thus, Arrokoth's geometric albedo adds to the orbital and spectral evidence that it is a cold classical Kuiper belt object. Maps of the normal reflectance and hemispherical albedo of Arrokoth are presented. The normal reflectance of Arrokoth's surface varies with location, ranging from ~0.10-0.40 at 610 nm with an approximately Gaussian distribution. Both Arrokoth's extrema dark and extrema bright surfaces are correlated to topographic depressions. Arrokoth has a bilobate shape and the two lobes have similar normal reflectance distributions: both are approximately Gaussian, peak at ~0.25 at 610 nm, and range from ~0.10-0.40, which is consistent with co-formation and co-evolution of the two lobes. The hemispherical albedo of Arrokoth varies substantially with both incidence angle and location, the average hemispherical albedo at 610 nm is 0.063 +/- 0.015. The Bond albedo of Arrokoth at 610 nm is 0.062 +/- 0.015.

description: We reconsider the problem of the stability of the thermohaline circulation as described by a two-dimensional Boussinesq model with mixed boundary conditions. We determine how the stability properties of the system depend on the intensity of the hydrological cycle. We define a two-dimensional parameters' space descriptive of the hydrology of the system and determine, by considering suitable quasi-static perturbations, a bounded region where multiple equilibria of the system are realized. We then focus on how the response of the system to finite-amplitude surface freshwater forcings depends on their rate of increase. We show that it is possible to define a robust separation between slow and fast regimes of forcing. Such separation is obtained by singling out an estimate of the critical growth rate for the anomalous forcing, which can be related to the characteristic advective time scale of the system.

description: In order to study the viscoelastic properties of certain complex fluids which are described in terms of a multiconnected transient network we have developed a convenient model system composed of microemulsion droplets linked by telechelic polymers. The phase behavior of such systems has two characteristic features: a large monophasic region which consists of two sub-regions (a fluid sol phase and a viscoelastic gel phase) separated by a percolation line and a two phase region at low volume fraction with separation into a dilute sol phase and a concentrated gel phase. From the plausible origin of these features we expect them to be very similar in different systems. We describe here the phase behavior of four different systems we prepared in order to vary the time scale of the dynamical response of the transient network; they consist of the combination of two oil(decane) in water microemulsions differing by the stabilizing surfactant monolayer (Cetyl pyridinium chloride/octanol or TX100/TX35) and of two telechelic polymers which are end-grafted poly (ethylene oxide) chains, differing by the end-grafted hydrophobic aliphatic chains (C12H25 or C18H37).

description: We use a new weak basis invariant approach to classify all the observable phases in any extension of the Standard Model (SM). We apply this formalism to determine the invariant CP phases in a simplified version of the Minimal Supersymmetric SM with only three non-trivial flavour structures. We propose four experimental measures to fix completely all the observable phases in the model. After these phases have been determined from experiment, we are able to make predictions on any other CP-violating observable in the theory, much in the same way as in the Standard Model all CP-violation observables are proportional to the Jarlskog invariant.

description: We report measurements of annual and diurnal modulations of the cosmic-ray muon rate in the Yangyang underground laboratory (Y2L) using 952 days of COSINE-100 data acquired between September 2016 and July 2019. A correlation of the muon rate with the atmospheric temperature is observed and its amplitude on the muon rate is determined. The effective atmospheric temperature and muon rate variations are positively correlated with a measured effective temperature coefficient of $α_{T}$ = 0.80 $\pm$ 0.11. This result is consistent with a model of meson production in the atmosphere. We also searched for a diurnal modulation in the underground muon rate by comparing one-hour intervals. No significant diurnal modulation of the muon rate was observed.

description: Entre os agricultores brasileiros, os familiares são os que mais geram empregos e fortalecem o desenvolvimento local, pois distribuem melhor a renda, são responsáveis por uma parte significativa da produção nacional, respeitam mais o meio ambiente e, principalmente, potencializam a economia nos municípios onde vivem. Mais da metade do território nordestino está localizado na região semi-árida, onde o Estado do Ceará representa 9,6% do espaço geográfico desta região. O semi-árido cearense ocupa quase sua área total sendo, portanto, vulnerável aos efeitos da seca. Em 2003, o governo do Estado, na tentativa de garantir a sobrevivência dos agricultores familiares em períodos de seca, lança o Projeto Garantia-Safra. Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar o projeto e sua importância em minimizar os efeitos da seca para produtores de grãos. A verificação do objetivo foi feita de modo descritivo e tabular através da análise de dados secundários obtidos da SEAGRI-CE e da FUNCEME. Apesar do curto período de lançamento do projeto, este vem a ser uma importante política pública, pois permite aos agricultores uma garantia de renda. Porém, deve ser feito uma análise de sua eficiência, eficácia e efetividade, a fim de atender a todos os agricultores sujeitos aos problemas ocasionados pela seca.

description: Com esta pesquisa, buscou-se avaliar as transformações ocorridas no perfil da produção agrícola da região Norte Fluminense, nas últimas três décadas. Os resultados evidenciaram que alguns dos produtos tradicionais da região, como milho, arroz, café, mandioca, feijão e banana, perderam importância para a produção de cana-de-açúcar. O crescimento da fruticultura, que vem sendo apontada como uma alternativa para a região, foi também constatado, principalmente para os produtos abacaxi, coco, goiaba e maracujá. Concluiu-se, ainda, que as alterações no perfil da produção agrícola, ocorridas na região, não podem ser explicadas unicamente pela análise das condições de mercado dos produtos. Os subsídios concedidos a esse setor, as características de sua produção e a tradição de séculos de cultivo são fatores que ajudam a explicar sua expansão ou permanência diante das condições apresentadas nas últimas décadas.

description: We compile published spectroscopic data and [O III] magnitudes of almost 500 extragalactic planetary nebulae (PNe) in 13 galaxies of various masses and morphological types. This is the first paper of a series that aims to analyze the PN populations and their progenitors in these galaxies. Although the samples are not complete or homogeneous we obtain some first findings through the comparison of a few intensity line ratios and nebular parameters. We find that the ionized masses and the luminosities in H$β$, L$_{Hβ}$, of around 30 objects previously identified as PNe indicate that they are most likely compact HII regions. We find an anticorrelation between the electron densities and the ionized masses in M31, M33, and NGC 300 which suggests that most of the PNe observed in these galaxies are probably ionization bounded. This trend is absent in LMC and SMC suggesting that many of their PNe are density bounded. The He II/H$β$ values found in many PNe in LMC and some in M33 and SMC are higher than in the other galaxies. Photoionization models predict that these high values can only be reached in density bounded PNe. We also find that the brightest PNe in the sample are not necessarily the youngest since there is no correlation between electron densities and the H$β$ luminosities. The strong correlation found between L$_{Hβ}$-L$_{[O III]}$ implies that the so far not understood cut off of the planetary luminosity function (PNLF) based on [O III] magnitudes can be investigated using L$_{Hβ}$, a parameter much easier to study.

description: O presente estudo aborda o comportamento empreendedor dos empresários atuantes no segmento do Turismo em áreas rurais na microrregião de Feira de Santana, da qual fazem parte 24 municípios. Realizou-se uma pesquisa descritivo-exploratória com os empresários rurais, utilizando-se como instrumento de levantamento de dados o questionário. Buscouse analisar o perfil empreendedor destes empresários bem como suas características empreendedoras. A pesquisa baseou-se no levantamento bibliográfico sobre Turismo Rural e Empreendedorismo, o qual forneceu subsídios para compreender a prática empreendedora, relacionada com as características e comportamentos dos proprietários dos estabelecimentos estudados. Constatou-se que existem poucas características empreendedoras no comportamento dos empresários estudados e que uma pequena parte destes empresários adotam uma postura de empreendedor, embora se tenha observado uma preocupação dos mesmos em praticar a rede de relacionamentos, de comunicação e negociações, características do comportamento empreendedor. Percebeu-se também o predomínio destes empresários na gestão dos seus negócios apesar da pouca experiência no ramo e que a busca dos empresários por informações atualizadas sobre o segmento é constante.

description: With the wide adoption of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) by cognitive neuroscience researchers, large volumes of brain imaging data have been accumulated in recent years. Aggregating these data to derive scientific insights often faces the challenge that fMRI data are high-dimensional, heterogeneous across people, and noisy. These challenges demand the development of computational tools that are tailored both for the neuroscience questions and for the properties of the data. We review a few recently developed algorithms in various domains of fMRI research: fMRI in naturalistic tasks, analyzing full-brain functional connectivity, pattern classification, inferring representational similarity and modeling structured residuals. These algorithms all tackle the challenges in fMRI similarly: they start by making clear statements of assumptions about neural data and existing domain knowledge, incorporating those assumptions and domain knowledge into probabilistic graphical models, and using those models to estimate properties of interest or latent structures in the data. Such approaches can avoid erroneous findings, reduce the impact of noise, better utilize known properties of the data, and better aggregate data across groups of subjects. With these successful cases, we advocate wider adoption of explicit model construction in cognitive neuroscience. Although we focus on fMRI, the principle illustrated here is generally applicable to brain data of other modalities.

description: Proceeding of the "HACK100" Conference, 6-10 June 2022, Trieste, Italy - In recent years, quasars have been shown to be reliable standardizable candles, thanks to the non-linear relation between their X-rays and ultraviolet luminosity. Quasars are also very numerous and they are found at all the observed redshifts: this allows us to investigate the expansion rate of the Universe and the cosmological parameters in a previously almost untested redshift range ($z\sim2-7$). At redshift higher than 1.5, the Hubble Diagram of quasars shows a significant tension with the predictions of the $Λ$CDM model. I will show how detailed optical/UV and X-rays spectroscopic analysis can be used (i) to obtain more precise distance estimates, and (ii) to derive information about the physical process behind the luminosities relation, and discuss the cosmological implementations.

description: We model an interface layer connecting two parts of a solid body by N parallel elastic springs connecting two rigid blocks. We load the system by a shear force acting on the top side. The springs have equal stiffness but are ruptured randomly when the load reaches a critical value. For the considered system, we calculate the shear modulus, G, as a function of the order parameter, ϕ, describing the state of damage, and also the ``spalled'' material (burst) size distribution. In particular, we evaluate the relation between the damage parameter and the applied force and explore the behaviour in the vicinity of material breakdown. Using this simple model for material breakdown, we show that damage, caused by applied shear forces, is analogous to a first-order phase transition. The scaling behaviour of G with ϕis explored analytically and numerically, close to ϕ=0 and ϕ=1 and in the vicinity of ϕ_c, when the shear load is close but below the threshold force that causes material breakdown. Our model calculation represents a first approximation of a system subject to wear induced loads.
