Numerical Investigation of Flapwise-Torsional Vibration Model of a Smart Section Blade with Microtab by Nailu Li, Mark J. Balas, Hua Yang, Wei Jiang, Kaman T. Magar

“…The model is suitable for potential passive vibration control study of the blade section in classic flutter. Equations of the model are described by the nondimensional flapwise and torsional vibration modes coupled with the aerodynamic model based on the Theodorsen theory and aerodynamic effects of the microtab based on the wind tunnel experimental data. …”

A Dual-Thread Method for Time-Optimal Trajectory Planning in Joint Space Based on Improved NGA by Kaipeng Zhang, Ning Liu, Gao Wang

“…To solve the problem that the time-consuming optimization process of Genetic Algorithm (GA) can erode the expected time-saving brought by the algorithm, time-optimal trajectory planning based on cubic spline was used, after the modification to classical fitness sharing function of NGA, a dual-threaded method utilizing elite strategy characteristic was designed which was based on Niche Genetic Algorithm (NGA) with the fitness sharing technique. …”

Design of Robust Supertwisting Algorithm Based Second-Order Sliding Mode Controller for Nonlinear Systems with Both Matched and Unmatched Uncertainty by Marwa Jouini, Slim Dhahri, Anis Sellami

“…The modified algorithm is formed of double closed-loop feedback, in which two linear terms are added to the classical STA. In addition, an integral sliding mode switching surface is proposed to construct the attractiveness and reachability of sliding mode. …”

Microwave Dielectric Properties of CCTO/PVA Composites by M. P. F. Graça, K. D. A. Sabóia, F. Amaral, L. C. Costa

“…The complex permittivity was calculated by the small perturbation theory using two resonant cavities (2.7 GHz and 5.0 GHz). Several classical models (Maxwell Garnett, Lichtenecker, effective medium theory (EMT), and Yamada) were used to fit the real part of the complex permittivity of the composite as a function of the weight fraction of CCTO powder inserted in the PVA matrix. …”

The person in contemporary contexts of right-wing populism: an uncomfortable study by Luiz Fernando Dias Duarte, Marco Julián Martínez-Moreno

“…To achieve this, the historical antecedents of the phenomenon are revisited, and an overview of classical and contemporary theories and hypotheses are discussed-which enables us to recognise a structured pattern of affects, values, representations and practices that are reactive to enlightened Western modernity. …”

Management of Iron Overload in Resource Poor Nations: A Systematic Review of Phlebotomy and Natural Chelators by Orish Ebere Orisakwe, Cecilia Nwadiuto Amadi, Chiara Frazzoli

“…Although bloodletting or phlebotomy remains the gold standard in the management of iron overload, this systematic review is an updated account of the pitfalls of phlebotomy and classical synthetic chelators with scientific justification for the use of natural iron chelators of dietary origin in resource-poor nations.…”

Grand unification at the cosmological collider with chemical potential by Arushi Bodas, Edward Broadberry, Raman Sundrum

“…Our mechanism requires at least a pair of massive vector fields which are singlets of the standard model, a condition which is satisfied in the classic “trinification” scenario. Assuming that the gauge hierarchy problem is solved by supersymmetry, gauge coupling running points to unification partners at ~ 1015 GeV. …”

Low apolipoprotein A1 and high apolipoprotein B levels indicate specific lipid changes in treatment naïve early psoriatic arthritis by Kurt de Vlam, Rik Lories, M Van Mechelen, Sofia Pazmino, P Verschueren, Barbara Neerinckx, Lies Storms, Alla Ishchenko

“…Objectives To investigate serum lipid profile in early, treatment-naïve psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and to determine whether changes in classical lipids or apolipoproteins are specific to PsA.Methods Total cholesterol, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-c), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), HDL-c, triglycerides, apolipoprotein B (ApoB) and apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) were compared in newly diagnosed untreated PsA patients (n=75) to sex- and age-matched controls (healthy control (HC)) (n=61) and early untreated rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients (n=50).Results Among classical lipid measurements, HDL-c levels were lower in PsA than in HC and RA (df 2, χ210, p=0.006, PsA vs HC p=0.013). …”
