A Self-Adjusting Algorithm for Driver Scheduling
, 2005 Public transport driver scheduling is a world wide problem, which is NP-hard. Although some mathematically based methods are being used in the transport industry, there is still much scope for improvements.

Modeling, Simulation, and Design of Self-Assembling Space Systems: Accurate Collision Detection, Robust Time Integration, and Optimal Control [PDF]
, 2013 Motivated by issues inherent in modeling and designing self-assembling systems (e.g. multiple collisions, collisions between non-smooth bodies, clumping and jamming behaviors, etc.), the goal of this thesis is to develop robust numerical tools that ...

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

A fuzzy adaptive admittance controller for force tracking in an uncertain contact environment
IET Control Theory & Applications, 2021 Traditional constant admittance controller (CAC) in uncertain contact environment is highly dependent on environmental location and stiffness, which are always difficult to obtain in most applications. To address this problem, a fuzzy adaptive admittance

Sustainable Safety in Mobile Multi-robot Systems via Collective Adaptation
, 2015 To be safe, mobile multi-robots systems need to be able to adapt to unexpected behaviours of robots as well as to exogenous changes in the environment. In this paper, we describe a novel approach for the development of multi-robots systems where robots ...

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Combining osimertinib with the STING agonist ADU‐S100 activates innate and adaptive immunity to overcome the non‐inflamed microenvironment of Egfr‐mutant lung cancer. This combination increases NK and CD8+ T‐cell infiltration, associated with activation of the STING‐IRF3 pathway and local immunogenic cell death.
