Robust Estimations for the Tail Index of Weibull-Type Distribution

Risks, 2018
Based on suitable left-truncated or censored data, two flexible classes of M-estimations of Weibull tail coefficient are proposed with two additional parameters bounding the impact of extreme contamination.

Enabling Stochastic Dynamic Games for Robotic Swarms

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This paper scales stochastic dynamic games to large swarms of robots through selective agent modeling and variable partial belief space planning. We formulate these games using a belief space variant of iterative Linear Quadratic Gaussian (iLQG). We scale to teams of 50 agents through selective modeling based on the estimated influence of agents ...

Asymptotic Stability of a Class of Impulsive Delay Differential Equations

Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2012
This paper is concerned with a class of linear impulsive delay differential equations. Asymptotic stability of analytic solutions of this kind of equations is studied by the property of delay differential equations without impulsive perturbations.

Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.

Adaptive mixing formation control of multiquadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle systems

Asian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents a distributed adaptive mixing control (AMC) design for formation maintenance of systems of multiquadrotor UAVs (q‐UAVs) during commanded path‐tracking maneuvers. The proposed formation control scheme has a two‐level structure. The high level defines the desired trajectories for rigid and persistent formation acquisition and

Discrete Element Method Modeling of an Extrusion Process with Recirculation for Dry Manufacturing of Lithium‐Ion Battery Electrodes

Batteries &Supercaps, EarlyView.
On a digitized laboratory extruder, discrete element method modelling is studied, considering two classes of particles representing aggregates of 1) active material and 2) binder and carbon material is studied. Various extrusion scenarios leading to the formation of filaments devoted to the 3D printing of lithium‐ion battery electrodes are studied. The

Almost Surely Asymptotic Stability of Numerical Solutions for Neutral Stochastic Delay Differential Equations

Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2011
We investigate the almost surely asymptotic stability of Euler-type methods for neutral stochastic delay differential equations (NSDDEs) using the discrete semimartingale convergence theorem.

Relation Between Asymptotic $L_p$-Convergence and Some Classical Modes of Convergence

Real Analysis Exchange
Asymptotic $L_p$-convergence, which resembles convergence in $L_p$, was introduced to address a question in diffusive relaxation. This note aims to compare asymptotic $L_p$-convergence with convergence in measure and in weak $L_p$ spaces. One of the results characterizes convergence in measure on finite measure spaces in terms of asymptotic $L_p ...

Model‐informed drug development to support nemolizumab clinical development in adults and adolescents with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Population pharmacokinetic (popPK) and pharmacokinetic‐pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) models were developed to support clinical development of nemolizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting the IL‐31 receptor α, in adolescents and adults with moderate‐to‐severe atopic dermatitis (AD).

Histopathologic Analysis of the Morpho‐Functional Zones of the Human Acetabular Labrum

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The structural and functional adaptation of soft tissues to mechanical load controls their ability to withstand injury and influences their capacity for healing. Similar to the knee meniscus, the acetabular labrum exhibits zonal differences in mechanical load distribution, resulting in distinct regions with unique structural and functional ...
