—Epidemic models based on nonlinear differential equations have been extensively applied in a variety of systems as diverse as infectious outbreaks, marketing, diffusion of belie...
Images taken from scenes under water suffer distortion due to refraction. While refraction causes magnification with mild distortion on the observed images, severe distortions in...
