Discordance between systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index domain weights and their association with organ damage accrual

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Studies of damage accrual in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) show associations with disease activity measured by the SLE Disease Activity Index 2000 (SLEDAI‐2K), but these associations are imperfect. SLEDAI scores are powerfully influenced by weightings (1‐8) assigned to each domain.

Additive Gaussian Process Regression for Predictive Design of High‐Performance, Printable Silicones

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A chemistry‐aware design framework for tuning printable polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) for vat photopolymerization (VPP) is developed using additive Gaussian process (GP) modeling. Polymer network mechanics informs variable groupings, feasible formulation constraints, and interaction variables.

Copper Nanocrystallization in Anodic Oxide Films of Ti–Cu‐Based Bulk Metallic Glass and Its Effect on the Corrosion Resistance and Cytocompatibility

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Viktoriia Shtefan, Thorgund Nemec, Ute Hempel, Annett Gebert and coworkers demonstrate that anodic treatment of Ti–Cu‐based metallic glass in a nontoxic pyrophosphate electrolyte forms a protective bilayered Ti/Zr‐oxide film enriched with Cu nanocrystals.

On Rational Bubbles and Fat Tails [PDF]

This paper addresses the statistical properties of time series driven by rational bubbles a la Blanchard and Watson (1982). Using insights on the behavior of multiplicative stochastic processes, we demonstrate that the tails of the unconditional ...

Dynamics of a two-dimensional competitive system of rational difference equations with quadratic terms

Advances in Differential Equations, 2014
We investigate global dynamics of the following systems of difference equations: {xn+1=b1xn2A1+yn2,yn+1=a2+c2yn2xn2,n=0,1,2,…, where the parameters b1, a2, A1, c2 are positive numbers and the initial condition y0 is an arbitrary nonnegative number and x0

A coupled system of rational difference equations

Computers & Mathematics with Applications, 2002
For the solutions of \(x_{n+1}=x_n/(a+cy_n),\) \(y_{n+1}=y_n/(b+dx_n)\), \(n\in \mathbb N_0\), with positive \(a,b,c,d\) and non-negative \(x_0\), \(y_0\) the asymptotic behaviour and the global stability properties are investigated.

NanoMOF‐Based Multilevel Anti‐Counterfeiting by a Combination of Visible and Invisible Photoluminescence and Conductivity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents novel anti‐counterfeiting tags with multilevel security features that utilize additional disguise features. They combine luminescent nanosized Ln‐MOFs with conductive polymers to multifunctional mixed‐matrix membranes and powder composites. The materials exhibit visible/NIR emission and matrix‐based conductivity even as black bodies.

RATIONAL DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS WITH POSITIVE EQUILIBRIUM POINT [PDF]

Bulletin of the Korean Mathematical Society, 2010
In this note we study positive solutions of the mth order rational difference equation , where n = m,m+1,m+2, and > 0. We describe a sufficient condition on nonnegative real numbers under which every solution of the above equation tends to the limit /2B as , where and .
