The model equations are refined to expand its failure prediction capabilities. The electron temperature is re-defined solely as a function of the electric field, and the defect generation rate is more closely aligned with ...

Over the past several years, protein-based therapeutics have revolutionized the pharmaceutical industry, with applications for treatment of a range of diseases from autoimmune to cancer. This rise has been accompanied by ...

The key assumption behind all previous studies on collective formation of SPPs is that the suspending fluid is a Newtonian fluid. However, biological fluids like mucus and saliva are viscoelastic. In this thesis, I will ...

In this work we will examine several systems of swimmers with an increasing level of realism and sophistication. In several cases exact analytical solutions are found for the probability densities of such systems. For other ...
