Anyone who has watchedBuffy , question With a Vampireor ( oh god)Twilighthas probably wondered at some point : If lamia were literal , would humanity stick out a chance ?
Well , marvel no more because mathematics has the answer . Dominik Czernia , a physics PhD student at the Institute of Nuclear Physics PAN in Krakow , has created an on-line cock so you’re able to see for yourself how humanity would make out , and it ’s based on real maths . Not vampire math , but maths maths .
A while back , a squad of researchers in Europecreated a numerical simulation of fundamental interaction between human race and lamia , as depicted in various lit and on film . The mathematicians created a mathematical model of the predator - prey relationship , based on theLotka - Volterra equivalence , but add in human and vampires as describe in classic lamia narrative ( Stoker and King ) , more late ones ( by Anne Rice ) , and the instant lamia depict inTwilight . The model then predicts population levels of homo and lamia over metre .
The model commute depend on the behaviour of the vampires in these dissimilar traditional knowledge . For instance , in the Anne Rice translation of vampires , humans become extremely dead ( that ’s " dead dead " not " undead utter " ) incredibly quick . Within 49 years , humanity is basically wipe out .
The only scenario where lamia and humans can ( fairly ) peacefully co - exist by their abstract thought is ( sigh ) theTwilightversion , or as describe inTrue Blood , due to the ability of vampires to outlast on animal or synthetic blood , take to sustainable levels of human deaths .
Meanwhile , in the Stoker - King role model , " the “ explosive ” rate of growth in vampire population would lead to the extermination of 80 pct of the human universe on the 165th day after the first vampire ’s arrival . On the bright side , we take them out with us .
" The scenario is similar to severe epidemic irruption and would run first to the utter quenching of humans and then to the death of all vampires . "
Thenew online calculatorallows you to play around with parameters to cut it to your specific lamia traditional knowledge tastes . Not a fan ofTwilight ? No worries , you’re able to choose from five other scenario or create your own .
