Novel computational methods, models, algorithms and applications in mathematics, statistics, biological sciences, physical sciences, bioinformatics, finance, economics, climate, environment and other related areas.
Silicon Carbide has become one of the promising materials that can be used for electronic and optical applications. This is as a result of its superior properties among them structural, thermal, chemical,electronic and mechanical. This material is among the prominent systems that exhibits several polytypism. It has more than 200 polytypes and among them is 3C polytype which has attracted...
Recent years have seen a great improvement in the field of Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculation of the structure and properties of crystalline materials. There are several reasons underlying the present successful application of DFT to materials science: Faster and faster computers, software improvements and theory advancement. Based on these three pillars, we the computing scientists...
The Pierre Auger Observatory has recorded more than two million events of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. In seeking to interpret the data recorded for the events, it is necessary to simulate the interaction of primary cosmic rays with the atmosphere. One of the softwares that is available for this kind of simulation is CONEX. In this study, CONEX is used to simulate various compositions of...
