Random matrices and the New York City subway system

Aukosh Jagannath and Thomas Trogdon

Phys. Rev. E 96, 030101(R) (2017) - Published 5 September, 2017

A comparison of the arrival-time statistics of New York City’s subway trains indicates that some train lines may be more efficiently run than others.

Mechanics of active surfaces

Guillaume Salbreux and Frank Jülicher

Phys. Rev. E 96, 032404 (2017) - Published 6 September, 2017

This paper presents a general covariant theory of the mechanical behavior of active surfaces, driven out of equilibrium by internal molecular processes. The results are valid for surfaces of arbitrary shape and lead to a classification into five different symmetry classes based on the properties of the surface.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Transitions in optimal adaptive strategies for populations in fluctuating environments

Andreas Mayer, Thierry Mora, Olivier Rivoire, and Aleksandra M. Walczak

Phys. Rev. E 96, 032412 (2017) - Published 21 September, 2017

This paper analyzes the problem of finding the optimal strategy for population growth in the presence of fluctuating environmental conditions. The authors present graphical and analytical approaches to the problem and discuss the behavior of the system while several parameters are varied.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Effect of disorder on shrinkage-induced fragmentation of a thin brittle layer

Zoltán Halász, Akio Nakahara, So Kitsunezaki, and Ferenc Kun

Phys. Rev. E 96, 033006 (2017) - Published 25 September, 2017

The authors investigate the effect of disorder on shrinkage-induced fragmentation of a thin brittle layer attached to a substrate. Their computer simulations reveal a transition in the cracking mechanism and the statistics of fragments. Low disorder results in a log-normal distribution of fragment sizes, and high disorder, in a power-law distribution.
