By linearly scaling the initial data set (mass and kinetic energy functions), it is found that the dynamics of quasi-spherical (or spherical) collapse remains invariant for dust or a general (Type I) matter field, provided the comoving radius is also appropriately scaled. This defines a symmetry of the quasi spherical (or spherical) collapse. That is, the linear transformation identifies an equivalence class of data sets which lead to the same end result as well as its evolution all through. In particular, it is shown that the physical parameters, density and shear remain invariant. What the transformation is exhibiting is an interesting scaling relationship between mass, kinetic energy and the size of the collapsing sphere which is respected not only by the initial data set but remarkably also by the dynamics of collapse.

A detailed study of higher-dimensional quasi-spherical gravitational collapse with radial and tangential stresses has been done and the role of initial data, anisotropy and inhomogeneity has been investigated in determining the end state of collapse. By linear scaling the initial data set and the area radius, it is found that the dynamics of quasi-spherical collapse remains invariant. In other words, the linear transformation identifies an equivalence class of data sets for which physical parameters like density, pressures (radial and tangential), shear remain invariant and the final state of collapse is identical (black hole or naked singularity). Finally, the role of anisotropy and inhomogeneity has been studied by proving some propositions.

In this work, gravitational collapse has been studied for quasi-spherical spacetime with dust or anisotropic pressure as the matter content. A linear transformation on the initial data set and of the area radius shows the invariance of the physical parameters as well as the final fate of collapse, considering an arbitrary function of r as the initial area radius.

AbstractThe aim of experimental research in the area of exterior walls and windows suitable for wooden buildings was to build special pavilion laboratories. These laboratories are ideally isolated from the surrounding environment, airtight and controlled by the constant internal climate. The principle of experimental research is measuring and recording of required physical parameters (e.g. temperature or relative humidity). This is done in layers of experimental fragment sections in the direction from exterior to interior, as well as in critical places by stable interior and real exterior climatic conditions. The outputs are evaluations of experimental structures behaviour during the specified time period, possibly during the whole year by stable interior and real exterior boundary conditions. The main aim of this experimental research is processing of long-term measurements of experimental structures and the subsequent analysis. The next part of the research consists of collecting measurements obtained with assistance of the experimental detached weather station, analysis, evaluation for later setting up of reference data set for the research locality, from the point of view of its comparison to the data sets from Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute (SHMU) and to localities with similar climate conditions. Later on, the data sets could lead to recommendations for design of wooden buildings.

A dynamical network model of insulin-glucose interactions in subjects with Type I Diabetes was developed and applied to data sets for 40 subjects. Each data set contained the amount of dextrose + insulin infused and blood glucose (BG) determinations, sampled every 5 minutes during a one-hour standardized euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp and a subsequent one-hour BG reduction to moderate hypoglycemic levels. The model approximated the temporal pattern of BG and on that basis predicted the counterregulatory response of each subject. The nonlinear fits explained more than 95% of the variance of subjects' BG fluctuations, with a median coefficient of determination 97.7%. For all subjects the model-predicted counterregulatory responses correlated with measured plasma epinephrine concentrations. The observed nadirs of BG during the tests correlated negatively with the model-predicted insulin utilization coefficient (r = -0.51,p< 0.001) and counterregulation rates (r= -0.63,p< 0.001). Subjects with a history of multiple severe hypoglycemic episodes demonstrated slower onset of counterregulation compared to subjects with no such history (p< 0.03).

Here we investigate the genericity and stability aspects for naked singularities and black holes that arise as the final states for a complete gravitational collapse of a spherical massive matter cloud. The form of the matter considered is a general Type I matter field, which includes most of the physically reasonable matter fields such as dust, perfect fluids and such other physically interesting forms of matter widely used in gravitation theory. Here, we first study in some detail the effects of small pressure perturbations in an otherwise pressure-free collapse scenario, and examine how a collapse evolution that was going to the black hole endstate would be modified and go to a naked singularity, once small pressures are introduced in the initial data. This allows us to understand the distribution of black holes and naked singularities in the initial data space. Collapse is examined in terms of the evolutions allowed by Einstein equations, under suitable physical conditions and as evolving from a regular initial data. We then show that both black holes and naked singularities are generic outcomes of a complete collapse, when genericity is defined in a suitable sense in an appropriate space.

In this paper, we investigate a Bianchi type I exact Universe by taking into account the cosmological constant as the source of energy at the present epoch. We have performed a [Formula: see text] test to obtain the best fit values of the model parameters of the Universe in the derived model. We have used two types of data sets, viz., (i) 31 values of the Hubble parameter and (ii) the 1048 Pantheon data set of various supernovae distance moduli and apparent magnitudes. From both the data sets, we have estimated the current values of the Hubble constant, density parameters [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The dynamics of the deceleration parameter shows that the Universe was in a decelerating phase for redshift [Formula: see text]. At a transition redshift [Formula: see text], the present Universe entered an accelerating phase of expansion. The current age of the Universe is obtained as [Formula: see text] Gyrs. This is in good agreement with the value of [Formula: see text] calculated from the Plank collaboration results and WMAP observations.

AbstractWe propose a new foliation of asymptotically Euclidean initial data sets by 2-spheres of constant spacetime mean curvature (STCMC). The leaves of the foliation have the STCMC-property regardless of the initial data set in which the foliation is constructed which asserts that there is a plethora of STCMC 2-spheres in a neighborhood of spatial infinity of any asymptotically flat spacetime. The STCMC-foliation can be understood as a equivariant relativistic generalization of the CMC-foliation suggested by Huisken and Yau (Invent Math 124:281–311, 1996). We show that a unique STCMC-foliation exists near infinity of any asymptotically Euclidean initial data set with non-vanishing energy which allows for the definition of a new notion of total center of mass for isolated systems. This STCMC-center of mass transforms equivariantly under the asymptotic Poincaré group of the ambient spacetime and in particular evolves under the Einstein evolution equations like a point particle in Special Relativity. The new definition also remedies subtle deficiencies in the CMC-approach to defining the total center of mass suggested by Huisken and Yau (Invent Math 124:281–311, 1996) which were described by Cederbaum and Nerz (Ann Henri Poincaré 16:1609–1631, 2015).

Generalised additive mixed models (GAMMs) are increasingly popular in dynamic speech analysis, where the focus is on measurements with temporal or spatial structure such as formant, pitch or tongue contours. GAMMs provide a range of tools for dealing with the non-linear contour shapes and complex hierarchical organisation characteristic of such data sets. This, however, means that analysts are faced with non-trivial choices, many of which have a serious impact on the statistical validity of their analyses. This paper presents type I and type II error simulations to help researchers make informed decisions about modelling strategies when using GAMMs to analyse phonetic data. The simulations are based on two real data sets containing F2 and pitch contours, and a simulated data set modelled after the F2 data. They reflect typical scenarios in dynamic speech analysis. The main emphasis is on (i) dealing with dependencies within contours and higher-level units using random structures and other tools, and (ii) strategies for significance testing using GAMMs. The paper concludes with a small set of recommendations for fitting GAMMs, and provides advice on diagnosing issues and tailoring GAMMs to specific data sets. It is also accompanied by a GitHub repository including a tutorial on running type I error simulations for existing data sets: https://github.com/soskuthy/gamm_strategies.

The distribution of gallium and germanium over the available framework sites in the type-I clathrate Sr8Ga16Ge30(Pm\bar{3}n) has been determined by powder diffraction using several different combinations of resonant scattering data sets, collected at energies close to both the Ga and GeK-edges, and time-of-flight (TOF) neutron diffraction data. Based on a combined refinement using three X-ray data sets and a composition restraint, the fractional occupancies of the 6c, 16iand 24ksites by gallium are estimated to be 0.705 (5), 0.181 (3) and 0.376 (2), respectively. The required resonant scattering factors were determined by Kramers–Kronig transformation from X-ray absorption spectra. The results from refinements using single data sets and various combinations of data sets are compared. The high degree of scattering contrast that resonant diffraction can provide leads to very precise site occupancies. However, systematic errors in the resonant diffraction intensity data can considerably degrade the accuracy of the results. The use of a carefully chosen multiple-data-set strategy can minimize bias in the refinement results by reducing the correlations between site occupancies, atomic displacement parameters and histogram scale factors. The effect of errors in the resonant scattering factors on the refinement results was also examined.
