This paper adopts the Kinetic Theory for Active Particles (KTAP) approach to model the dynamics of liquidity profiles on a complex adaptive network system that mimic a stylized financial market. Individual incentives of investors to form or delete a link is driven, in our modelling framework, by stochastic game-type interactions modelling the phenomenology related to policy rules implemented under Basel III, and it is exogeneously and dynamically influenced by a measure of overnight interest rate. The strategic network formation dynamics that emerges from the introduced transition probabilities modelling individual incentives of investors to form or delete links, provides a wide range of measures using which networks might be considered “best” from the point of view of the overall welfare of the system. We use the time evolution of the aggregate degree of connectivity to measure the time evolving network efficiency in two different scenarios, suggesting a first analysis of the stability of the arising and evolving network structures.

A direct thermal-to-pneumatic energy converter utilizing the principle of thermal transpiration through a porous membrane is described. The applicability of this no-moving-part pump to a fluidic control system is discussed. A laboratory model has been constructed and experimentally evaluated for several gases, membrane types, and temperature ranges. A theoretical model is derived from the binary diffusion equations of kinetic theory. A linearized version of this model is verified experimentally for small temperature gradients. The kinetic theory model is evaluated numerically to predict the static performance of a pump for large temperature gradients.
