Cost-effectiveness criterion for optimal firing at surface targets by MLRS unguided rockets with ballistic aerodynamic brakes

open access: yesVojnotehnički Glasnik, 2011
A problem of selecting an artillery target while firing from a multiple launch rocket system (MLRS) is not considered frequently in literature. A solution to that problem involves a good agreement among many elements such as shooting dispersion law of ...

An Examination of the Individual and Contextual Characteristics Associated with Active Shooter Events [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In recent years, the US has experienced a substantial number of mass shooting incidents. This type of shooting incident has been termed “active shooter event” and encompasses shootings that occur in school settings as well as public settings and ...

Radiotherapy Enhancement by Gold Nanocluster‐functionalized Nanoliposomes Using Polychromatic Orthovoltage X‐ray Irradiation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Lipid drug carriers to which ultra‐small gold nanoparticles were added enabled more efficient radiotherapy of cultured pancreatic cancer tumors. These nanoparticles boosted radiation‐induced damage to tumors by generating more reactive molecules, though higher gold levels are needed for strong benefits.

Multiple Shooting in Rational Expectations Models [PDF]

open access: yes
This note describes an algorithm for the solution of rational expectations models with saddlepoint stability properties. The algorithm is based on the method of multiple shooting, which is widely used to solve mathematically similar problems in the ...

Numerical solution of a kidney model by multiple shooting [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Biosciences, 1980
Abstract The mathematical modeling of the renal counterflow system involves a two-point boundary-value problem for a system of nonlinear differential equations. In this paper the multiple shooting technique is used for the numerical solution of this problem. This method ensures highly precise and reliable computations.

Nanoporous Microelectrodes for Neural Electrophysiology Recordings in Organotypic Culture

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The highly porous microelectrodes have been designed and printed on culture membranes, allowing to record electrophysiological neural activity for rodent brain slices. To keep the biocompatible nanoporous structure, the microelectrodes and insulative layer are fabricated on the bottom of culture membranes with only small connector pads added on the top.

School Shooters

open access: yesSAGE Open, 2014
Situations involving active shooters in schools have increased in recent years. We define an “active shooter incident” as an occurrence where one or more individuals participate in an ongoing, random, or systematic shooting spree with the objective of ...

A Numerical Slow Manifold Approach to Model Reduction for Optimal Control of Multiple Time Scale ODE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Time scale separation is a natural property of many control systems that can be ex- ploited, theoretically and numerically. We present a numerical scheme to solve optimal control problems with considerable time scale separation that is based on a model ...
