Analysis of a Novel Time‐Continuous Dimer Growth Model Describing One Possible Cause of Alzheimer's Disease and a Time‐Discretization for Its Numerical Simulation

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Because oligomers of the amyloid‐β$$ \beta $$ (Aβ$$ A\beta $$) protein can possibly be regarded as one main cause for progressive development of Alzheimer's disease, different mathematical models for its emergence have been proposed by different scientific groups.

T(w)o Patch or Not T(w)o Patch: A Novel Biocontrol Model

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A number of top‐down biocontrol models have been proposed where the introduced predators' efficacy is enhanced via the provision of additional food (AF). However, if the predator has a pest‐dependent monotone functional response, pest extinction is unattainable. In the current manuscript, we propose a model where a predator with pest‐dependent

Faster and More Robust CK Reaction Rate Estimation at 3T Using Acquisition‐Weighted 31P Cardiac 1D‐MRSI With Compartment‐Based Reconstruction

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Quantification of the creatine kinase (CK) forward reaction rate (kf) in the human heart using phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy is clinically important; however, it is limited by long acquisition times, operator subjectivity in analysis, and potential skeletal muscle contamination.

Physics‐Guided Neural Network for Quantitative Parameter Mapping Using Balanced Steady State Free Precession MRI

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To propose a new method using a physics‐guided neural network for quantitative parameter mapping in balanced steady‐state free precession (bSSFP) imaging. Theory and Methods We trained physics‐guided neural networks with a multilayer perceptron using simulated bSSFP signals generated from tissue parameters (T1$$ {T}_1 $$, T2$$ {T}_2 $$,

A Comprehensive Multistage Average Controller for Trajectory Tracking in Solar‐Powered Mobile Robots: Analysis of Actuator‐Driver and Power Stage Integration

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This work addresses the challenge of bidirectional trajectory tracking in solar‐powered wheeled mobile robots (WMRs), considering the mechanical structure, actuator‐driver, and power stage subsystems. Notably, this is the first study to explicitly model and control the actuator‐driver subsystem within this context. The proposed solution relies

Uncertainty, Sensitivity, and Efficiency Analysis of a Hybrid Piezoelectric–Electromagnetic Energy Harvester

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Digitalization and emerging technologies are increasing the demand for wireless sensing and the Internet of Things (IoT), which provide opportunities for autonomous sources of electricity in the form of energy harvesting systems. This paper focuses on the challenges in hybrid piezoelectric‐electromagnetic kinetic energy harvesting systems that

Tactical and Strategic Risks From Supply Disruptions in Competing Supply Chains

Naval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Supply chain disruptions can lead to both tactical (i.e., loss of short‐term sales during a disruption) and strategic (i.e., loss of long‐term market share) consequences. We model the impact of a supply disruption on competing supply chains in which two firms compete for a limited backup supply.

Coexistence, crossover and extirpation in coalescent communities and ecotones

Oikos, EarlyView.
When two ecological communities come into contact, the strength of their mixing determines whether species coexist, extirpate, or extend their ranges. We present analytical formulas and simulations describing these transitions. Specifically, we derive abundance shifts upon community coalescence, identify the critical mixing strength leading to first ...
