A generalised comparison principle for the Monge-Amp\`ere equation and the pressure in 2D fluid flows

open access: yes, 2016
We extend the generalised comparison principle for the Monge-Amp\`ere equation due to Rauch & Taylor (Rocky Mountain J. Math. 7, 1977) to nonconvex domains. From the generalised comparison principle we deduce bounds (from above and below) on solutions of

Comparison of Bayesian-Utilitarian and Maximin Principle Approaches

open access: yesHuman and Ecological Risk Assessment: An International Journal, 2005
The Precautionary Principle implies the adoption of a set of rules aimed at avoiding possible future harm associated with suspected, but not ascertained, risk factors. Several philosophical, economical and societal questions are implied by precaution-based public health decision making.

Performance Triggered Adaptive Model Reduction for Soil Moisture Estimation in Precision Irrigation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate soil moisture information is essential for precise irrigation to enhance water use efficiency. Estimating soil moisture based on limited soil moisture sensors is especially critical for obtaining comprehensive soil moisture information when dealing with large‐scale agricultural fields.

Existence and regularity of weak solutions for singular elliptic problems

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2015
In this article we study the semilinear singular elliptic problem $$\displaylines{ -\Delta u = \frac{p(x)}{u^{\alpha}}\quad \text{in } \Omega \cr u = 0\quad \text{on } \partial\Omega,\quad u>0 \text{ in } \Omega, }$$ where $\Omega$ is a regular ...

Forskolin Enhances Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Secretion and Angiogenic Activity of Xeno‐Free Cultures of Human Adipose Tissue‐Derived Stem Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
The regenerative potential of adipose tissue‐derived stem cells can be enhanced through chemical stimulation in vitro. A short stimulation protocol using forskolin, either alone or in combination with other growth factors, under xeno‐free conditions enhanced the pro‐angiogenic responses in human ASCs.

Solutions to nonlinear elliptic equations with a nonlocal boundary condition

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2002
We study an elliptic equation and its evolution problem on a bounded domain with nonlocal boundary conditions. Eigenvalue problems, existence, and dynamic behavior of solutions for linear and semilinear equations are investigated.

Using a Supramolecular Approach to Engineer Modular Hydrogel Platforms for Culturing Protoplasts – from General Tissue Engineering to Cellular Agriculture

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Using supramolecular monomers, various hydrogel culture systems were formulated to culture protoplasts; including 2D, 2.5D, and 3D hydrogels. Depending on the culture platform, bioactive functionalization led to protoplast enlargement (2D and 2.5D) or plasmolysis (3D). This work shows the potential to modularly engineer synthetic platforms for cellular

Note on a role for entire functions of the classes P and P*

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1981
We use the B and B* operators of Levin on the Classes P and P* and a comparison principle to prove a Gauss-Lucas Theorem for differential operators. The connection with the determination of final sets for differential operators is then clarified.
