More analyses of different elements within lunar samples - and a great deal more computer simulations that result in a Moon like our own - will be needed to settle the debate.
It is further verified by more FEM simulations that the effective shear stiffness can be extended to predict the mechanical responses of the porous neo-Hookean materials subjected to any general isochoric deformations.
At later stages of moisture transport, where air diffusion and dissolution have a more significant contribution, simulations that consider moisture hysteresis compare most favorably with experimental results.
Gaining intuition from these simple models, we then present more extensive phylodynamic simulations that incorporate the occurrence of both antigenic and non-antigenic (largely deleterious) mutations.
This allows for more controlled thermodynamic simulations that disentangle the role of charge, excluded volume, and tertiary structure have in the assembly process.
At NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., Antti Pulkkinen and other researchers are working to do that, running data from sun-sensing satellites in simulations that are more and more sophisticated.
That typically occurs in ice-sheet model simulations that involve more than about 2 m of sea-level-equivalent mass loss.
However, this is possibly a result of the simplifying assumptions made in the photochemical production parameterization of the earlier chemistry-free simulations that are more consistent with the low latitude simulation than the high latitudes.
Combining NICAM with high-performance computing has created new opportunities in three areas of research: (1) higher resolution global simulations that produce more realistic representations of convective systems, (2) multi-member ensemble simulations that are able to perform extended-range forecasts 10 30 days in advance, and (3) multi-decadal simulations for climatology and variability.
Spacing contact nodes 3 mm apart using this scheme appears to produce simulated implant motions that are similar to those obtained using smaller spacings, and results in simulations that are more stable than those possible when a similar number of spring nodes are placed using triangulation.
