We develop a technique for establishing statistical tests with precise confidence levels for upper bounds on the critical probability in oriented percolation. We use it to give pc < 0.647 with a 99.999967% confidence. As Monte Carlo simulations suggest that pc ≈ 0.6445, this bound is fairly tight.

Monte Carlo simulations and analytical scaling relations are used to identify the stable interparticle configurations (phases) exhibited by polymer-grafted nanocubes and to study their phase behavior as a function of material properties.

In order to describe the formation of a consensus in human opinion dynamics, in this paper, we study the Sznajd model with probabilistic noise in two dimensions. The time evolution of this system is performed via Monte Carlo simulations. This social behavior model with noise presents a well defined second-order phase transition. For small enough noise q < 0.33 most agents end up sharing the same opinion.

ABSTRACTThe diffusion-limited kinetics of the growth of depletion zone around a static point trap in a thin, long stripe geometry was studied using a laser photobleaching experiment of fluorescein dye inside a rectangular capillary. The dynamics of the depletion zone was monitored by the θ-distance, defined as the distance from the trap to the point where the reactant concentration has been depleted to the specific fraction of its initial bulk value. A dimensional crossover from two dimensions to one dimension, due to the finite width of the reaction zone, was observed. The crossover seems to occur for all θ values concurrently when the depletion zone touches the boundary for the first time, suggesting that the boundary information spreads faster than diffusion. Monte Carlo simulations were performed to support the experimental results. The crossover time (τc) is found to scale with the width (L) of the rectangular reaction zone as τc ∼ L2, as expected from the Einstein's diffusion law.
