A mathematical model for entropy generation in a Powell-Eyring nanofluid flow in a porous channel

Heliyon, 2019
The continuous generation of entropy leads to exergy destruction which reduces the performance of a physical system. Hence, entropy minimization becomes necessary.

Effect of time dependent viscosity and radiation efficacy on a non-Newtonian fluid flow

Heliyon, 2019
In the present article we have studied the radiation effects on the flow of a viscoelastic fluid flow past a spongy plate by considering the viscosity as variable.

On Hierarchical Composite Endpoints in Pediatric Cancer Supportive Care: Illustrative Examples From Two Multi‐Center Phase‐III Randomized Clinical Trials

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric supportive care clinical trials often involve multiple clinically important outcomes, complicating trial interpretation. Hierarchical composite endpoints (HCEs) provide a framework to integrate key outcomes according to clinical importance.

Optimal estimated process parameters side sensitive group runs chart based on expected average run length

Heliyon, 2018
The side sensitive group runs (SSGR) chart is better than both the Shewhart and synthetic charts in detecting small and moderate process mean shifts. In practical circumstances, the process parameters are seldom known, so it is necessary to estimate them

Applied mathematics and finance

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Physical and Engineering Sciences, 1994
Abstract My aim is to make some comments of a quite general nature about the relation between applied mathematics and finance, theoretical and practical. I shall begin with a brief description of a case in which ‘technology transfer’ from a quite different area of mathematics, the Stefan problem, was helpful with a financial problem ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Lie group analysis of magnetohydrodynamic tangent hyperbolic fluid flow towards a stretching sheet with slip conditions

Heliyon, 2017
In this paper, we studied MHD two dimensional flow of an incompressible tangent hyperbolic fluid flow and heat transfer towards a stretching sheet with velocity and thermal slip.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Problem-Based Learning and Applied Mathematics

Mathematics, 2022
Problem-based learning (PBL) is a teaching method that appeared in the early 1960s and is widely applied in distinct areas nowadays. In the presented manuscript, we describe a PBL methodology use restricted to applied mathematics for problem solving ...

Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This
