A Predator-Prey Model in the Chemostat with Time Delay by Guihong Fan, Gail S. K. Wolkowicz

“…Hence, Holling type I response functions are chosen so that no oscillatory behavior is possible when there is no delay. It is proven that unlike the analogous model for competition, as the parameter modeling the delay is increased, Hopf bifurcations can occur.…”

Chaotic Hopfield Neural Network Swarm Optimization and Its Application by Yanxia Sun, Zenghui Wang, Barend Jacobus van Wyk

“…The proposed algorithm combines the advantages of traditional PSO, chaos and Hopfield neural networks: particles learn from their own experience and the experiences of surrounding particles, their search behavior is ergodic, and convergence of the swarm is guaranteed. …”

Multi-challenge aspects in fatigue due to the combined occurrence of multiaxiality, variable amplitude loading, and size effects by M. Vormwald

“…The three major issues which contribute to uncertainties in fatigue life estimations are the limited transferability of material data obtained in a laboratory for describing the fatigue behavior of components, the lack of damage accumulation rules to realistically take into account the effects of various load sequences, and the uncertainty in the assessment of multiaxial stress states. …”

ANTICORRUPTION POLICY IN HIGHER EDUCATION AND NEW ACADEMIC ETHICS by Marina N. Makarova, Roman V. Vakhrushev

“…The article considers the global and Russian experience in creating anticorruption policy and academic ethics in higher education institutions, analyzes different forms of corruption and academic misconduct in the West and in Russia, factors of corruption and dishonest behavior in academic environment. The main directions of anticorruption policy in higher education include adoption of ethical codes and other ways of shaping “culture of integrity” in contemporary higher education. …”

On some models for cancer cell migration throughtissue networks by Jan Kelkel, Christina Surulescu

“…We propose some models allowing to account for relevant processes at the various scales of cancer cell migration through tissue, ranging from the receptor dynamics on the cell surface over degradation of tissue fibers by protease and soluble ligand production towards the behavior of the entire cell population.   For a genuinely mesoscopic version of these models we also provide a result on the local existence and uniquenessof a solution for all biologically relevant space dimensions.…”
