Dimension reduction for the Landau-de Gennes model on curved nematic thin films

open access: yes, 2017
We use the method of $\Gamma$-convergence to study the behavior of the Landau-de Gennes model for a nematic liquid crystalline film attached to a general fixed surface in the limit of vanishing thickness.

Testing a Personalized Approach to Chronic Low Back Pain: A Randomized Controlled Trial in Older Veterans

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to test the efficacy of personalized treatment of older veterans with chronic low back pain (CLBP) delivered by Aging Back Clinics (ABCs) as compared with usual care (UC). Methods Two hundred ninety‐nine veterans aged 65 to 89 with CLBP from three Veterans Affairs (VA) medical centers underwent baseline testing, randomization to ABC ...

On the Convergence Rate of Vanishing Viscosity Approximations

open access: yes, 2003
Given a strictly hyperbolic, genuinely nonlinear system of conservation laws, we prove the a priori bound $\big\|u(t,\cdot)-u^\ve(t,\cdot)\big\|_{\L^1}= \O(1)(1+t)\cdot \sqrt\ve|\ln\ve|$ on the distance between an exact BV solution $u$ and a viscous ...

Numerical identification of forcing terms by discrete mollification

open access: yesComputers & Mathematics with Applications, 1989
AbstractA new and totally automated technique for the approximate reconstruction of the unknown forcing terms in a system of ordinary differential equations when the experimental information is obtained through measured data, on a discrete set of points, is presented.

Partial Schauder estimates for second-order elliptic and parabolic equations

open access: yes, 2010
We establish Schauder estimates for both divergence and non-divergence form second-order elliptic and parabolic equations involving H\"older semi-norms not with respect to all, but only with respect to some of the independent variables.Comment: CVPDE ...

Automatic numerical differentiation by discrete mollification

open access: yesComputers & Mathematics with Applications, 1987
The author gives a method to estimate the derivative based on attempting to reconstruct a modified version of the derivative. This approach was first introduced by \textit{V. V. Vasin} [Zh. Vychisl. Mat. Mat. Fiz. 13, 1383-1389 (1973; Zbl 0306.65007)].

Combining Three Peripheral Blood Biomarkers to Stratify Rheumatoid Arthritis–Associated Interstitial Lung Disease Risk

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The purpose was to evaluate a biomarker score consisting of MUC5B rs35705950 promoter variant, plasma matrix metalloproteinase‐7 (MMP‐7), and serum anti–malondialdehyde‐acetaldehyde (anti‐MAA) antibody for rheumatoid arthritis (RA)–associated interstitial lung disease (ILD) risk stratification.

Numerical method for a Cauchy problem for multi-dimensional Helmholtz equation

open access: yesApplied Mathematics in Science and Engineering
The main focus of this research is to address the Cauchy problem of the multi-dimensional Helmholtz equation with mixed boundary conditions. This problem is known to be ill-posed according to Hadamard's definition.

Existence and uniqueness for a coupled PDE model for motor-induced microtubule organization

open access: yesJournal of Biological Dynamics, 2017
Microtubules (MTs) are protein filaments that provide structure to the cytoskeleton of cells and a platform for the movement of intracellular substances. The spatial organization of MTs is crucial for a cell's form and function. MTs interact with a class
