Implementation of the care agreements of the CACTO program for mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder by Paulo Roberto Lima Falcão do Vale, Jovana Gonçalves dos Santos, Rebecca de Azevedo e Silva, San Medrado Silva Andrade, Núbia Samara Caribé de Aragão, Luana Tonin, Rosely Cabral de Carvalho, Evanilda Souza de Santana Carvalho

“…The health needs of mothers determined the implementation of the agreements, such as: difficulties in body acceptance, sedentary lifestyle, lack of awareness of their own potential, insufficient self-care, unresolved past conflicts, self-blame, family conflicts, signs and symptoms of overload and fragility in the relationship with God. The lack of time and oppressive relationships were barriers, while motivation and spirituality served as strengths for the mothers in applying the agreement device. …”

Three-dimensional imaging of topologically protected strings in a multiferroic nanocrystal by Mansoor A. Najeeb, David Serban, Daniel G. Porter, Frank Lichtenberg, Stephen P. Collins, Alessandro Bombardi, Nicola A. Spaldin, Marcus C. Newton

“…Abstract Multiferroic materials can host a plethora of intriguing phenomena due to the presence of multiple ferroic properties that break both spatial inversion symmetry and time reversal symmetry at an observable scale. Hexagonal manganite multiferroics are of particular interest as the properties of their symmetry-lowering phase transition can be described by a Mexican-hat-like potential energy surface. …”

Control of Discrete Event Systems by Means of Discrete Optimization and Disjunctive Colored PNs: Application to Manufacturing Facilities by Juan-Ignacio Latorre-Biel, Emilio Jiménez-Macías, Mercedes Pérez de la Parte, Julio Blanco-Fernández, Eduardo Martínez-Cámara

“…The resulting tools produce excellent results in certain cases; however, the NP-hard nature of many discrete control or decision making problems in the manufacturing area may require unaffordable computational resources, constrained by the limited available time required to obtain a solution. With the purpose of improving the efficiency of a control methodology for discrete systems, based on a simulation-based optimization and the Petri net (PN) model of the real discrete event dynamic system (DEDS), this paper presents a strategy, where a transformation applied to the model allows removing the redundant information to obtain a smaller model containing the same useful information. …”
