The two-dimensional (2D) packings of binary mixtures of disks with diameter d and discorectangles with aspect ratio ɛ (length-to-width ratio ε=l/d ) were studied numerically. The competitive random sequential adsorption (RSA) with simultaneous deposition of particles was considered. The aspect ratio was changed within the range ε=1−10 . In the comp...

This paper investigates the dynamics of non-autonomous competitive systems of difference equations with asymptotically constant coefficients. We are mainly interested in global attractivity results for such systems and the application of such results to the evolutionary population of competition models of two species.

BACKGROUND The objective and relative competitiveness of obstetrical and gynecologic subspecialty training programs remain understudied. Traditional metrics, such as match rate or program fill rate, fail to standardize the application environment. This limits their applicability when examining demographic trends or when comparing data between diffe...
