New Absolute Stability Conditions of Lur’e Systems with Time-Varying Delay by Wei Wang, Hong-Bing Zeng

“…Based on the quadratic separation framework, a complete delay-decomposing Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is constructed. By considering the relationship between the time-varying delay and its varying interval, improved delay-dependent absolute stability conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are obtained. …”

Adsorption on Heterogeneous Surfaces with Simple Topographies by P.M. Centres, F. Bulnes, J.L. Riccardo, A.J. Ramirez-Pastor, M.A. Perarnau

“…The adsorption process was analyzed by following the behaviour of surface coverage versus chemical potential (adsorption isotherm) and the differential heat of adsorption as a function of the coverage. These quantities depend on the size of the patch as well as on the topological distribution of the patches on the surface. …”

Changes in Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emission Caused by Contralateral Broadband Noise by Edward OZIMEK, Andrzej WICHER

“…It was found that in the presence of CAS, in the majority of cases the DPOAE level decreased (suppression), but it might also increase (enhancement) or remain unchanged depending on the frequency. The mean suppression level of the component of the frequency $f_{DP} = 2f_1 − f_2$ might be approximated by a linearly decreasing function of the $f_2$ frequency of primary tones. …”
