Controlled Metric Type Spaces and the Related Contraction Principle

Mathematics, 2018
In this article, we introduce a new extension of b-metric spaces, called controlled metric type spaces, by employing a control function α ( x , y ) of the right-hand side of the b-triangle inequality.

On the existence and exponential attractivity of a unique positive almost periodic solution to an impulsive hematopoiesis model with delays

, 2015
In this paper, a generalized model of hematopoiesis with delays and impulses is considered. By employing the contraction mapping principle and a novel type of impulsive delay inequality, we prove the existence of a unique positive almost periodic ...

Differential Item Functioning on the Patient Health Questionnaire‐8 by Disease Subtype, Language, Sex, and Age among People with Systemic Sclerosis: A Scleroderma Patient‐centered Intervention Network Cohort Study

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Somatic items used in depression assessments can potentially overlap with symptoms related to physical illness, including systemic sclerosis (SSc). No studies have looked at whether somatic depression items may be influenced by diffuse versus limited SSc disease subtypes, which are associated with varying degrees of symptom presentation.

The contraction mapping principle and some applications

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2009
These notes contain various versions of the contraction mapping principle. Several applications to existence theorems in the theories of differential and integral equations and variational inequalities are given.

Carroll contractions of Lorentz-invariant theories

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We consider Carroll-invariant limits of Lorentz-invariant field theories. We show that just as in the case of electromagnetism, there are two inequivalent limits, one “electric” and the other “magnetic”.

Bistable Mechanisms 3D Printing for Mechanically Programmable Vibration Control

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a 3D‐printed bistable mechanism integrated into tuned mass dampers (TMDs) for mechanically adaptive passive vibration suppression. Through optimized geometry, the bistable design provides adaptable vibration reduction across a broad range of scenarios, achieving effective vibration mitigation without complex controls or external ...

Fixed-Point Theorems for θ−ϕ-Contraction in Generalized Asymmetric Metric Spaces

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2020
In the last few decades, a lot of generalizations of the Banach contraction principle had been introduced. In this paper, we present the notion of θ-contraction and θ−ϕ-contraction in generalized asymmetric metric spaces to study the existence and ...

Multimodal Mechanical Testing of Additively Manufactured Ti6Al4V Lattice Structures: Compression, Bending, and Fatigue

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this experimental study, the mechanical properties of additively manufactured Ti‐6Al‐4V lattice structures of different geometries are characterized using compression, four point bending and fatigue testing. While TPMS designs show superior fatigue resistance, SplitP and Honeycomb lattice structures combine high stiffness and strength. The resulting

Stancu modified operators revisited

Journal of Numerical Analysis and Approximation Theory, 2002
In this paper we construct a general positive approximation process representing an integral form in Kantorovich sense of the Stancu operators. By using K-functionals and some moduli of smoothness we give direct theorems for pointwise approximation. Also,

New Fixed Point Theorems for θ−ω−Contraction on λ,μ-Generalized Metric Spaces

Journal of Function Spaces, 2023
In this paper, we consider a new extension of the Banach contraction principle, which is called the θ−ω−contraction inspired by the concept of θ−contraction in λ,μ-generalized metric spaces and to study the existence and uniqueness of fixed point for the
