Global dynamics of difference equations for SIR epidemic models with a class of nonlinear incidence rates

Compact Ground-Based Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar Short-range structural monitoring

Recently, structural monitoring by radar remote sensing has become more necessary for both economic and security reasons. Infrastructure monitoring with no incorporated deformation sensors (e.g., old generation water dams for which regulations did not impose monitoring capabilities) is usually…

An empirical study on optic disc segmentation using an active contour model

The accurate segmentation of the optic disc (OD) offers an important cue to extract other retinal features in an automated diagnostic system, which in turn will assist ophthalmologists to track many retinopathy conditions such as glaucoma. Research contributions regarding the OD segmentation is on…

Planar quasilinear elliptic equations with right-hand side in L(log L)^\delta

For G open bounded subset of R^2 with C^1 boundary, we study the regularity of the variational solution u in H^1_0(G) to the quasilinear elliptic equation of Leray-Lions type: -div A(x,Du)=f , when f belongs to the Zygmund space L(log L)^{\delta}, \delta>0. As an interpolation between known…

Lattice Boltzmann study of reactive microflows

A Fractional-in-Time Prey-Predator Model with Hunting Cooperation: Qualitative Analysis, Stability and Numerical Approximations

A prey-predator system with logistic growth of prey and hunting cooperation of predators is studied. The introduction of fractional time derivatives and the related persistent memory strongly characterize the model behavior, as many dynamical systems in the applied sciences are well described by…

Detweiler's gauge-invariant redshift variable: Analytic determination of the nine and nine-and-a-half post-Newtonian self-force contributions

Continuing our analytic computation of the first-order self-force contribution to Detweiler's redshift variable we provide the exact expressions of the ninth and ninth-and-a-half post-Newtonian terms.

Measuring alterations in oscillatory brain networks in Schizophrenia with resting-state MEG: State-of-the-art and methodological challenges

Objective: Neuroimaging studies provide evidence of disturbed resting-state brain networks in Schizophrenia (SZ). However, untangling the neuronal mechanisms that subserve these baseline alterations requires measurement of their electrophysiological underpinnings. This systematic review…

Circular Holonomy, Clock Effects and Gravitoelectromagnetism: Still Going around in Circles after all These Years

The historical origins of Fermi-Walker transport and Fermi coordinates and the construction of Fermi-Walker transported frames in black hole spacetimes are reviewed. For geodesics this transport reduces to parallel transport and these frames can be explicitly constructed using a Killing-Yano tensor…

Tracking droplets in soft granular flows with deep learning techniques

The state-of-the-art deep learning-based object recognition YOLO algorithm and object tracking DeepSORT algorithm are combined to analyze digital images from fluid dynamic simulations of multi-core emulsions and soft flowing crystals and to track moving droplets within these complex flows. The YOLO…
