Engineering Photonic Pigments From Titania–Block Copolymer Composites

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Ligand‐functionalized TiO2 nanoparticles selectively partition into P2VP‐rich lamellae of onion‐like PS‐b‐P2VP microspheres, increasing refractive index contrast while preserving concentric order through controlled self‐assembly. The resulting dry photonic pigments display defined Bragg reflections and angle‐robust structural color.

A Severity‐Agnostic Atrophy Pattern in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3: Volumetrics from ENIGMA‐Ataxia

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Background Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a rare, inherited neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive loss of motor coordination. Objectives We undertook a multisite magnetic resonance imaging study to profile the spatial spread of atrophy across the brain, determine whether atrophy preferentially maps onto specific functional ...

Pinchuk maps, function fields, and real Jacobian conjectures

, 2012
Jacobian conjectures (that nonsingular implies invertible) for rational everywhere defined maps of real n-space to itself are considered, with no requirement for a constant Jacobian determinant or a rational inverse. The associated extension of rational function fields must be of odd degree and must have no nontrivial automorphisms.

Extending the hyper‐logistic model to the random setting: New theoretical results with real‐world applications

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
We develop a full randomization of the classical hyper‐logistic growth model by obtaining closed‐form expressions for relevant quantities of interest, such as the first probability density function of its solution, the time until a given fixed population is reached, and the population at the inflection point.

Unveiling New Perspectives on the Hirota–Maccari System With Multiplicative White Noise

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, we delve into the stochastic Hirota–Maccari system, which is subjected to multiplicative noise according to the Itô sense. The stochastic Hirota–Maccari system is significant for its ability to accurately model how stochastic affects nonlinear wave propagation, providing valuable insights into complex systems like fluid dynamics

An Improved Air Film Model for Studying the Tilt Characteristics of Aerostatic Thrust Bearings

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, an improved mass‐spring model that treats the lubricating air film as distributed springs is proposed to calculate the static and dynamic angular stiffness of aerostatic thrust bearings. The proposed model refines the traditional mass‐spring model by introducing the spatially varying mechanical properties of the air film and the

Inertial‐Based LQG Control: A New Look at Inverted‐Pendulum Stabilization

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Linear‐quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control is a well‐established method for optimal control through state estimation, particularly in stabilizing an inverted pendulum on a cart. In standard laboratory setups, sensor redundancy enables direct measurement of configuration variables using displacement sensors and rotary encoders. However, in outdoor

Approximate Reachability for Feedback Linearizable Systems

Optimal Control Applications and Methods, EarlyView.
The backwards reachable set for a dynamical system is the set of states for which there exists a constraint admissible trajectory that reaches a given terminal set. Conventional grid‐based approaches for computing these sets are intractable for many applications.

Optimal Control Analysis of Vertically Transmitted Infectious Diseases With Saturated Incidence and Nonlinear Treatment

Optimal Control Applications and Methods, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the proposed disease transmission model incorporating vertical transmission, saturated incidence, and nonlinear treatment. The study combines theoretical analysis, bifurcation and stability investigations, and optimal control techniques to evaluate prevention and treatment interventions.

New views of some invariants associated with the Cartesian 2D velocity gradient tensor

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Vorticity and divergence of horizontal flow are fundamental quantities in meteorology; both are linear functions of the four elements of the 2D velocity gradient tensor and both are formally unchanged under coordinate rotation. We explore four quadratic functions of the elements that are geometrically invariant in this sense, finding some novel ...
