Computational Assessment of the Hazardous Release Dispersion from a Diesel Pool Fire in a Complex Building’s Area

  • Konstantinos Vasilopoulos,
  • Michalis Mentzos,
  • Ioannis E. Sarris and
  • Panagiotis Tsoutsanis

A hazardous release accident taking place within the complex morphology of an urban setting could cause grave damage both to the population’s safety and to the environment. An unpredicted accident constitutes a complicated physical phenomenon w...

Pattern Formation in a Model Oxygen-Plankton System

  • Yadigar Sekerci and
  • Sergei Petrovskii

Decreasing level of dissolved oxygen has recently been reported as a growing ecological problem in seas and oceans around the world. Concentration of oxygen is an important indicator of the marine ecosystem’s health as lack of oxygen (anoxia) c...

NaRIBaS—A Scripting Framework for Computational Modeling of Nanomaterials and Room Temperature Ionic Liquids in Bulk and Slab

  • Eva Roos Nerut,
  • Karl Karu,
  • Iuliia V. Voroshylova,
  • Kathleen Kirchner,
  • Tom Kirchner,
  • Maxim V. Fedorov and
  • Vladislav B. Ivaništšev

Computational modeling is more and more often used in studies of novel ionic liquids. The inevitable side-effect is the growing number of similar computations that require automation. This article introduces NaRIBaS (Nanomaterials and Room Temperatur...
