ABSTRACT Patent owners can sell a royalty interest in stages rather than all at once. This paper asks how much to sell now when claim values are uncertain, buyers are costly to reach, and patent expiry limits the time available. A decision model produces sale schedules that adjust to current value, the share retained, and time remaining.

Algebraic limit cycles for quadratic polynomial differential systems
We prove that for a quadratic polynomial differential system having three pairs of diametrally opposite equilibrium points at infinity that are positively rationally independent, has at most one algebraic limit cycle.

ABSTRACT Purpose Transmit (B1+) and receive (B1−) sensitivities of parallel‐transmit/receive RF array are a prerequisite for modern ultra‐high‐field MRI. Their accurate mapping remains challenging for coils with high transmit dynamic range, particularly in regions with low combined‐mode B1+ magnitude, where standard reconstruction is impaired by noise.

Linear Mechatronic Modeling of Rectangular Tank Sloshing Dynamics
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 ...

ABSTRACT This paper proposes a hybrid control strategy for flexible‐link manipulators that combines offline trajectory planning with adaptive tracking to suppress residual elastic vibration (REV) under unknown bounded disturbances. A rigid–flexible coupling dynamics model is first established using the floating‐frame method and Lagrange's equations ...

ABSTRACT The design of control systems for high‐agility mechanical systems operating in extreme environments is a significant challenge in nonlinear dynamics. This paper addresses the complex dynamic control problem of a hypersonic interceptor, modeled as a multi‐input multi‐output (MIMO) mechanical system characterized by strong aerodynamic cross ...

ABSTRACT Accurate modeling of vibrating machines equipped with Neidhart springs is challenging due to the strong nonlinearities introduced by the elastomer–metal torsional elements and the constraints imposed by their kinematic arrangement. Multibody modeling methodologies for such vibrating machines are often computationally demanding, thus limiting ...

Coexisting ant species differ in ability to meet their intrinsic nutritional needs
Coexisting species are often assumed to reduce competition by foraging for foods that differ in nutrient composition, but few studies test whether field nutritional differences correspond to intrinsic differences in macronutrient selectivity. We compared field estimates of worker trophic position (tissue isotopes: δ15N) and worker tissue stoichiometry (
