Generalized nets in neurology: an example of mathematical modelling

The purpose of this paper is to explain the basic theory of generalized nets (GNs) and their applications in the context of the differential diagnosis of neurological diseases. We define formally the concepts of a GN and transitions of a GN and also outline some remarks on their theory. The work here constructs an example which aims to trace the process of diagnosing different signs and symptoms in neurology. This will enable the interested reader to see the scope of nets in general as tools for the modelling, simulation, optimization and control of real processes.

A new method for the automated selection of the number of components for deconvolving overlapping chromatographic peaks

Mathematical deconvolution methods can separate co-eluting peaks in samples for which (chromatographic) separation fail. However, these methods often heavily rely on manual user-input and interpretation. This is not only time-consuming but also error-prone and automation is needed if such methods are to be applied in a routine manner.     

LiBr分子基态光谱常数和分子常数研究

采用高精度的量子化学从头计算多参考组态相互作用方法和相关一致基, 计算了LiBr分子基态的光谱常数和势能曲线. 为获得更准确的结果, 计算中还考虑了二阶Douglas-Kroll-Hess相对论修正对LiBr分子基态的平衡键长、谐振频率和离解能影响. 将计算得到的势能曲线拟合为Murrell-Sorbie解析势能函数形式, 并进一步计算得到LiBr分子基态的其它光谱常数,ωeχe, αe, Be, D0. 比较发现它们与实验值符合的非常好. 通过求解核运动径向Schrodinger方程, 找到了LiBr分子基态的全部振动态. 还计算了每一个振动态的振动能级、经典转折点和惯性转动常数, 这些结果与已有的实验值一致.     

计入孔隙结构影响的复层含油轴承润滑特性分析

基于Darcy定律和Kozeny-Carman孔隙方程,建立多孔质复层含油轴承的流体润滑模型,利用有限差分法数值模拟,分析复层结构和孔隙参数对含油轴承润滑性能的影响.得出结论如下:复层含油轴承润滑性能随轴承高度增大而变差,随孔隙率减小而变好,当总孔隙率一定时,较低的表层孔隙率有利于提高复层含油轴承润滑性能.因此设计复层含油轴承时,在保证一定孔隙含油量的前提下,应尽可能减小表层孔隙率.研究工作为复层含油轴承摩擦学性能分析与结构设计提供一定的理论基础.     

Magnetization switching modes in nanopillar spin valve under the external field

The current-induced magnetic switching is studied in Co/Cu/Co nanopillar with an in-plane magnetization traversed under the perpendicular-to-plane external field.Magnetization switching is found to take place when the current density exceeds a threshold.By analyzing precessional trajectories,evolutions of domain walls and magnetization switching times under the perpendicular magnetic field,there are two different magnetization switching modes:nucleation and domain wall motion reversal;uniform magnetization ...     

Polymer chain diffusion in polymer blends: A theoretical interpretation based on a memory function formalism

The diffusion of polymer chains in miscible polymer blends with large dynamic asymmetry—those where the two blend components display very different segmental mobility—is not well understood yet. In the extreme case of the blend system of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(methyl methacrylate)(PMMA), the diffusion coefficient of PEO chains in the blend can change by more than five orders of magnitude while the segmental time scale hardly changes with respect to that of pure PEO. This behavior is not observed in blend systems with small or moderate dynamic asymmetry as, for instance, polyisoprene/poly(vinyl ethylene) blends. These two very different behaviors can be understood and quantitatively explained in a unified way in the framework of a memory function formalism, which takes into account the effect of the collective dynamics on the chain dynamics of a tagged chain. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Model selection based on Lorenz and concentration curves,Gini indices and convex order

In order to determine an appropriate amount of premium, statistical goodness-of-fit criteria must be supplemented with actuarial ones when assessing performance of a given candidate pure premium. In this paper, concentration curves and Lorenz curves are shown to provide actuaries with effective tools to evaluate whether a premium is appropriate or to compare two competing alternatives. The idea is to compare the premium income for sub-portfolios gathering low risks (identified as low by means of the premiums under consideration) to the true one, or equivalently, to the actual losses. Numerical illustrations performed on hypothetical data and real ones demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed approach.     

An anisotropic area-preserving flow for convex plane curves

This paper will deal with an anisotropic area-preserving flow which keeps the convexity of the evolving curve and the limiting curve converges to a homothety of a symmetric smooth strictly convex plane curve.
