Optimum Design Of A Pid Controller For The Adaptive Torsion Wing Using Ga
This paper presents the optimum design of a PID controller for the Adaptive Torsion Wing (ATW) using the genetic algorithm (GA) optimiser. The ATW is a thin-wall, twospar wingbox whose torsional stiffness can be adjusted by translating the spar webs in the chordwise direction inward and towards each. The reduction in t...

Coverage And Rate Of Downlink Sequence Transmissions With Reliability Guarantees
Real-time distributed control is a promising application of 5G in which communication links should satisfy certain reliability guarantees. In this letter, we derive closed-form maximum average rate when a device (e. g. , industrial machine) downloads a sequence of $ n$ operational commands through cellular connection, ...

On the linguistic effects of articulatory ease, with a focus on sign languages
Spoken language has a well-known drive for ease of articulation, which Kirchner (1998, 2004) analyzes as reduction of the total magnitude of all biomechanical forces involved. We extend Kirchner’s insights from vocal articulation to manual articulation, with a focus on joint usage, and we discuss ways that articulatory...

The subject of this paper is the rigorous derivation of a quasistatic evolution model for a linearly elastic-perfectly plastic thin plate. As the thickness of the plate tends to zero, we prove via Γ-convergence techniques that solutions to the three-dimensional quasistatic evolution problem of Prandtl-Reuss elastoplast...

Effective Potential Method For Active Particles
We investigate the steady state properties of an active fluid modeled as an assembly of soft repulsive spheres subjected to Gaussian colored noise. Such a noise captures one of the salient aspects of active particles, namely the persistence of their motion and determines a variety of novel features with respect to fami...

Age-Related Gliosis Promotes Central Nervous System Lymphoma through CCL19-Mediated Tumor Cell Retention
O'Connor et al. show that lymphoma cells (LCs) enter the brain but quickly exit along an endothelial CXCL12 gradient, which is countered by astrocyte-derived CCL19. Aged and gliotic brains express more CCL19 and thus retain LCs longer, conferring an increased risk of developing central nervous system lymphoma.

Novel avian-origin influenza A (H7N9) virus attaches to epithelium in both upper and lower respiratory tract of humans
Influenza A viruses from animal reservoirs have the capacity to adapt to humans and cause influenza pandemics. The occurrence of an influenza pandemic requires efficient virus transmission among humans, which is associated with virus attachment to the upper respiratory tract. Pandemic severity depends on virus ability ...

A Mammalian Mitophagy Receptor, Bcl2-L-13, Recruits the ULK1 Complex to Induce Mitophagy
Upon starvation, autophagy degrades cellular components to obtain nutrition for survival. Damaged mitochondria are removed by mitophagy, which is a specific form of autophagy. Bcl2-L-13 protein is involved in the process. Murakawa et al. find that the ULK1 complex, essential for autophagy, is necessary for Bcl2-L-13-me...
