Experimental investigation and simulation of catalytic converter performance
Published 2005“…The purpose of this paper is to present the results of an experimental study of the performance and conversion efficiencies of ceramic monolith three-way catalytic converters (TWCC) employed in automotive exhaust lines for the reduction of gasoline emissions. Two ceramic converters of different cell density, substrate length, hydraulic channel diameter and wall thickness were studied to investigate the effect of varying key parameters on conversion efficiencies and pressure drop. …”

Phase diagram and phase transitions of the Potts model with external magnetic field
Published 2009“…The physical phenomenon of phase transition is reflected in mathematical model by non-uniqueness of the Gibbs measures and phase diagram of the model describes a morphology of phases, stability of phases, different transitions from one phase to another and corresponding transition lines. We study the phase diagram for the Potts model on a Cayley tree with nearest-neighbor interaction J in the presence of an external magnetic field h. …”

Drive against hotspot motifs in primates implicates the PRDM9 gene in meiotic recombination
Published 2010“…We report that a 13-base pair sequence motif previously associated with the activity of 40% of human hotspots does not function in chimpanzees and is being removed by self-destructive drive in the human lineage. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that the rapidly evolving zinc-finger protein PRDM9 binds to this motif and that sequence changes in the protein may be responsible for hotspot differences between species. …”
