Recent advances in theoretical models of respiratory mechanics

As an important branch of biomedical engineering, respiratory mechanics helps to understand the physiology of the respiratory system and provides fundamental data for developing such clinical technologies as ventilators. To solve different clinical problems, researchers have developed numerous models at various scales that describe biological and mechanical properties of the respiratory system. During the past decade, benefiting from the continuous accumulation of clinical data and the dramatic progress of biomedical technologies (e.g. biomedical imaging), the theoretical modeling of respiratory mechanics has made remarkable progress regarding the macroscopic properties of the respiratory process, complexities of the respiratory system, gas exchange within the lungs, and the coupling interaction between lung and heart. The present paper reviews the advances in the above fields and proposes potential future projects.     

Thin layers of aluminium: A molecular orbital study

Molecular beam epitaxy has been used to prepare thin layers (200 nm thickness) of aluminium grown either on aluminium or gallium arsenide substrates; their He(I) and He(II) photoelectron spectra have been recorded. The quasirelativistic CNDO/1 method has been applied to investigate the band structure of {Al}₁₇₂, {Al}₂₈₄ and {Al}₄₂₄ clusters obtained by a duplication of the unit cell: the DOS profiles and their projections were generated. These data were correlated with the periodic crystal orbitals of the EHT quality. The first excitation energy serves as a better estimate of the vanishing energy gap showing thus a metallic character of aluminium.

The best uniform convergence rate of linear empirical bayes estimators

In this paper the thought on the uniform convergence of an empirical Bayes estimator or linear empirical Bayes (l.e.B.) estimator is advanced. Under two different models the l.e.B. estimators of the parameter are constructed respectively. It is proved that the convergence rates and uniform convergence rates of these l.e.B. estimators are all one with respect to the corresponding prior families. It is shown that the uniform convergence rate one is the best, under mild assumptions imposed on the conditional density of the sample.
