Self-Calibration and Optimal Response in Intelligent Sensors Design Based on Artificial Neural Networks

open access: yesSensors, 2007
The development of smart sensors involves the design of reconfigurable systemscapable of working with different input sensors. Reconfigurable systems ideally shouldspend the least possible amount of time in their calibration.

Therapeutic Apheresis for Intravenous Methylprednisolone‐Refractory Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder: Clinical and Radiological Outcomes in a Single‐Center Case Series

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.

An Improved Linearization Circuit Used for Optical Rotary Encoders

open access: yesMeasurement Science Review, 2017
Optical rotary encoders generate nonlinear sine and cosine signals in response to a change of angular position that is being measured. Due to the nonlinear shape of encoder output signals, encoder sensitivity to very small changes of angular position is ...

Prognosis of Long‐Term Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy and the Impact of Combined Continuous Intravenous Sodium Infusion Therapy

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Patients requiring long‐term continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) generally have poor prognoses. This study evaluated whether adding continuous intravenous sodium infusion (cIVNa) is associated with improved hemodynamics and outcomes in patients undergoing long‐term CRRT for ≥ 7 days.

Control of Sliding-Isolated Buildings Using Dynamic Linearization

open access: yes, 2011
The method of dynamic linearization is presented for the control of seismic-excited buildings isolated by a fractional-type base sliding system. The dynamic behaviour of the building equipped with a base sliding isolation system is highly nonlinear.

Uniqueness for degenerate elliptic sublinear problems in the absence of dead cores

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2004
In this work we study the problem $$ -mathop{ m div}(| abla u|^{p-2} abla u)=lambda f(u) $$ in the unit ball of $mathbb{R}^N$, with $u=0$ on the boundary, where $p>2$, and $lambda$ is a real parameter. We assume that the nonlinearity $f$ has a zero $

Bio-Inspired Jumping Spider Optimization for Controller Tuning/Parameter Estimation of an Uncertain Aerodynamic MIMO System

open access: yesChaos Theory and Applications
The practical near impossibility of empirical attempts in estimating optimal controller gains makes the use of metaheuristics strategies inevitable to automatically obtain these gains by an iterative, heuristic simulation procedure.

Linearizations of the Spherical Harmonic Discrete Ordinate Method (SHDOM)

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
Linearizations of the spherical harmonic discrete ordinate method (SHDOM) by means of a forward and a forward-adjoint approach are presented. Essentially, SHDOM is specialized for derivative calculations and radiative transfer problems involving the ...

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Nonlinear cross Gramians and gradient systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We study the notion of cross Gramians for non-linear gradient systems, using the characterization in terms of prolongation and gradient extension associated to the system.
