Theoretical modeling for the stereo mission [PDF]

Space Science Reviews, 2006
We summarize the theory and modeling efforts for the STEREO mission, which will be used to interpret the data of both the remote-sensing (SECCHI, SWAVES) and in-situ instruments (IMPACT, PLASTIC). The modeling includes the coronal plasma, in both open and closed magnetic structures, and the solar wind and its expansion outwards from the Sun, which ...

Mapping clinical outcomes to generic preference-based outcome measures: development and comparison of methods

Health Technology Assessment, 2020
Background: Cost-effectiveness analysis using quality-adjusted life-years as the measure of health benefit is commonly used to aid decision-makers. Clinical studies often do not include preference-based measures that allow the calculation of quality ...

THEORETICAL MODELS OF DARK ENERGY [PDF]

International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2012
Mounting observational data confirm that about 73% of the energy density consists of dark energy which is responsible for the current accelerated expansion of the Universe. We present observational evidences and dark energy projects. We then review various theoretical ideas that have been proposed to explain the origin of dark energy; they contain the ...

Antitumor Effect of Bleomycin Nanoaerosol in Murine Carcinoma Model

Molecules, 2023
Bleomycin, which is widely used as an antitumor agent, possesses serious adverse effects such as pulmonary toxicity. Local nanoaerosol deposition for lung cancer treatment is a promising alternative to drug delivery to lung lesions.

Control Theoretic Models of Pointing [PDF]

ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction, 2017
This article presents an empirical comparison of four models from manual control theory on their ability to model targeting behaviour by human users using a mouse: McRuer’s Crossover, Costello’s Surge, second-order lag (2OL), and the Bang-bang model.

Monotone Simultaneous Paths Embeddings in $\mathbb{R}^d$ [PDF]

Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2018
We study the following problem: Given $k$ paths that share the same vertex set, is there a simultaneous geometric embedding of these paths such that each individual drawing is monotone in some direction?

Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity of essential amino acid α-ketoacid analogues against renal ischemia–reperfusion damage in Wistar rats

Biomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2020
Introduction: Essential amino acid α-keto acid analogs are used in the treatment of chronic kidney disease to delay the symptoms of uremia. However, it is unknown whether essential amino acid α-keto acid analogs affect the oxidative stress and the ...

Linear Encodings of Bounded LTL Model Checking [PDF]

Logical Methods in Computer Science, 2006
We consider the problem of bounded model checking (BMC) for linear temporal logic (LTL). We present several efficient encodings that have size linear in the bound.

The Ontology of Theoretical Modelling: Models as Make-Believe [PDF]

, 2009
The descriptions and theoretical laws scientists write down when they model a system are often false of any real system. And yet we commonly talk as if there were objects that satisfy the scientists’ assumptions and as if we may learn about their ...
