Stationary self-control model

We begin with a stationary model of addiction, in which the temptation to hit can depend on the addiction level but otherwise remains constant over time, which allows us to identify some basic insights. We first ask what is the direct implication of self-control problems by comparing TCs and naifs. In the stationary model, naifs are always more likely to hit than TCs. Since naifs are unaware of future self-control problems, they perceive that they will behave exactly like TCs in the future and... 

Chapter 8 details the modeling of the self-assembly of ternary blends encompassing photosensitive chemical reactions that create defect-free, hierarchically ordered materials. Starting with a brief review of literature, this chapter provides a description of theoretical models and then shows how one can control the evolution of such systems by varying the reaction rate coefficients in a specified manner. A further discussion on the formation of defect-free structures in the binary and ternary systems via a combination of stationary and moving light sources is given. Then, description is provided on the use of a photomask to control the structure formation within thin films of ternary blends.
