INFORMATION SWIMMER: SELF-PROPULSION WITHOUT ENERGY DISSIPATION

Information swimmer: Self-propulsion without energy dissipation

We study an information-based mechanism of self-propulsion in noisy environment.An information swimmer maintains directional motion by periodically measuring its velocity and accordingly adjusting its friction coefficient.Assuming that the measurement and adjustment are reversible and hence cause no energy dissipation, an information swimmer may mo

Impact of urbanization on net carbon sink efficiency in economically developed area: A case study of the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration, China

Reducing carbon emissions and improving vegetation carbon sequestration (VCS) have long been recognized as the key ways to address the aim of carbon neutrality, requiring global effort and HSI Ignitor typical regional experiences.This paper develops an assessment framework for measuring the net carbon sink efficiency (NCSE) based on the concept of
