Uncertainty quantification and sensitivity analysis of a nuclear thermal propulsion reactor startup sequence

Frontiers in Nuclear Engineering
The research presented in this article describes progress in applying stochastic methods, uncertainty quantification, parametric studies, and variance-based sensitivity analysis (also known as Sobol sensitivity analysis) to a full-core model of a nuclear

Risk-sensitive control of cash management systems

Operational Research, 2017
[EN] Firms manage cash for operational, precautionary and speculative purposes. Stat-of-the-art cash management models usually focus on cost minimization by means of a set of controlling bounds. In this paper, we propose a multiobjective model to control cash management systems with multiple accounts characterized by generalized cash flow processes. In

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Stack structured hybrid load cell for a high-stroke system

Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2019
The load cell is an essential sensor for the force measurement systems. The sensitivity of a typical load cell for general force measurement is constant over the full operating range.

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

A static mixed-sensitivity ℓ2 control for discrete-time polytopic LPV systems using the poly-quadratic approach

Franklin Open
This paper focuses on novel static mixed-sensitivity ℓ2 control synthesis for discrete-time polytopic linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems. The distinguished control formulation is intended to get efficient characterizations for a class of mixed ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...
