Stress relaxation models with polyconvex entropy in Lagrangean and Eulerian coordinates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The embedding of the equations of polyconvex elastodynamics to an augmented symmetric hyperbolic system provides in conjunction with the relative entropy method a robust stability framework for approximate solutions \cite{LT06}.

The Entropy Universe

open access: yes, 2021
About 160 years ago, the concept of entropy was introduced in thermodynamics by Rudolf Clausius. Since then, it has been continually extended, interpreted, and applied by researchers in many scientific fields, such as general physics, information theory,

Impact of Initial Treatment Setting on Survival in Relapsed Pediatric and AYA Bone Sarcomas: A Secondary Analysis of a Prospective Clinical Trial

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Outcomes in relapsed or refractory pediatric and AYA bone sarcomas remain poor, and the impact of early referral to specialized sarcoma centers on survival is unclear. Early centralization of care may improve local and systemic treatment quality, but evidence in this population is limited.

Entropy approximations for simple fluids

open access: yesPhysical Review E
Liquid state entropy formulas based on configurational probability distributions are examined for Lennard-Jones fluids across a range temperatures and densities. These formulas are based on expansions of the entropy in series of $n$-body distribution functions. We focus on two special cases.

Uncovering Inequities: The Role of Social Determinants of Health in Hospitalized Adolescents and Young Adults With Heavy Menstrual Bleeding

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is a common condition among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) and is the leading cause of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in this population. Growing evidence suggests that social determinants of health (SDOH) influence menstrual bleeding patterns, access to care, and treatment. However, no studies have

A review of entropy measures for uncertainty quantification of stochastic processes

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2019
Entropy is originally introduced to explain the inclination of intensity of heat, pressure, and density to gradually disappear over time. Based on the concept of entropy, the Second Law of Thermodynamics, which states that the entropy of an isolated ...

Low-Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound Stimulation Modulates the Nonlinear Dynamics of Local Field Potentials in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound stimulation (LIPUS) can inhibit seizures associated with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), which is the most common epileptic syndrome in adults and accounts for more than half of the cases of intractable epilepsy ...

Surface EMG classification using moving approximate entropy

open access: yes, 2007
Moving approximate entropy has been proposed as a new method to extract information from the surface electromyographic signal. Twenty subjects performed wrist flexion/extension, isometric contraction and co-contraction while electromyographic signals ...

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...
