Regularized Joint Reconstruction and Slab Combination for Accelerated Three‐Dimensional Multi‐Slab Diffusion‐Weighted Imaging Using Multi‐Scale Energy Models

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To jointly reconstruct high‐resolution diffusion‐weighted volumes and eliminate slab‐boundary artifacts while preserving fine anatomical detail from undersampled 3D multi‐slab k‐space acquisitions. Methods A bilinear forward model was formulated to describe the 3D multi‐slab acquisition, treating the image volume and slab excitation ...

Planar vector fields without invariant algebraic curves

open access: yes
Abstract. In this work we revisit and extend the method introduced by Lins Neto, Sad and Sca´rdua for detecting the non-existence of invariant algebraic curves other than some prescribed invariant nodal curve. We prove that, under the existence of a suitable example, the space of polynomial vector fields whose elements have the prescribed curve as ...

Robust Position Control of an Electro‐Hydraulic Actuator via Metaheuristic Optimization of a Fractional‐Order PID Controller

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, a robust position control strategy is presented for a two‐stage electro‐hydraulic actuator system using a fractional‐order proportional–integral–derivative (FOPID) controller tuned by Kirchhoff's law algorithm (KLA). Electro‐hydraulic systems exhibit strong nonlinearities, parameter uncertainties, and external disturbances ...

Linear Mechatronic Modeling of Rectangular Tank Sloshing Dynamics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sloshing dynamics in partially filled tanks can strongly influence system‐level behavior when fluid motion couples with rigid‐body dynamics. This paper presents a linear and acausal two‐dimensional sloshing model for rectangular tanks, based on the reformulation of established sloshing theory within a modular, multi‐domain modeling framework ...

From Biological Fractal Dynamics to Analog Fractional‐Order Circuits: A System Design Framework Based on Operatorization Thought

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fractional calculus, with its unique advantage in describing memory and nonlocal effects, has become a key tool for modeling nonlinear dynamic systems. Its integration with circuit systems has opened up a new paradigm for modern circuit design.

Tactical and Strategic Risks From Supply Disruptions in Competing Supply Chains

open access: yesNaval 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.

Generalizing the Gaussian Network Model: Spanning‐Tree Thermodynamics Shows Entropy‐Driven KRAS Activation

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The GTPase KRAS executes a conformational switch between a GTP‐bound active state and a GDP‐bound inactive state, a process central to oncogenic signaling. However, the structural basis of this switching at the level of residue‐contact organization remains incompletely characterized by traditional binary structural models.

Impact of Packaging and Recycling Systems on Material Recirculation: A Stage‐Decomposition Model

open access: yesPackaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
A system‐level view emerges from decomposing recycling into four stages (participation, collection, sorting and process yield), diagnosing constraints and targeting interventions. Cumulative equivalent uses (CEUs) quantify long‐term retention, revealing marginal improvements at high baselines generate disproportionately larger gains than low‐baseline ...

Ensemble reliability and the signal‐to‐noise paradox in ECMWF subseasonal forecasts

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We derive a general expression for the ratio of predictable components (RPC) in terms of correlation, spread–error ratio, and total variance ratio. Physical constraints on the admissible solutions (i.e., real‐valued and non‐negative variances) provide a mechanism to identify statistically paradoxical sample combinations of reliability and correlation ...
