Delay equations modeling the effects of phase-specific drugs and immunotherapy on proliferating tumor cells by Maria Vittoria Barbarossa, Christina Kuttler, Jonathan Zinsl

“…In this work we present a mathematical model for tumor growth based on the biology of the cell cycle.For an appropriate description of the effects of phase-specific drugs, it is necessary to look at the cell cycle and itsphases. Our model reproduces the dynamics of three different tumor cell populations: quiescent cells,cells during the interphase and mitotic cells.Starting from a partial differential equations (PDEs) setting, a delay differential equations (DDE) model is derived for aneasier and more realistic approach.Our equations also include interactions of tumor cells with immune system effectors.We investigate the model both from the analytical and the numerical point of view, give conditions forpositivity of solutions and focus on the stability of the cancer-free equilibrium. …”

Generalising Holographic Superconductors by Andrea Donini, Víctor Enguita-Vileta, Fabian Esser, Veronica Sanz

“…We then apply this generalised description to study the properties of the condensate and the scaling of the critical temperature with the parameters of the higher-dimensional theory, which allows us to reproduce existing results in the literature and extend them to include a possible description of the newly observed f-wave superconducting systems.…”

Application of Statistical Experimental Design and Surface Plot Technique to Optimize Oxygenated Apatite Synthesis by Soumia Belouafa, Hassan Chaair, Khalid Digua

“…An empirical model was developed and validated by applying the ANOVA analysis incorporating the interaction effects of all parameters and optimized using the response surface methodology. A reproducible synthesis of more oxygenated apatite with speed of dissolution adaptable to that of the osseous neoformation and allowing a progressive diffusion of oxygenated species (Ca/P = 1.575) is attained.…”
