Beyond Chaos in Fractional-Order Systems: Keen Insight in the Dynamic Effects by José Luis Echenausía-Monroy, Luis Alberto Quezada-Tellez, Hector Eduardo Gilardi-Velázquez, Omar Fernando Ruíz-Martínez, María del Carmen Heras-Sánchez, Jose E. Lozano-Rizk, José Ricardo Cuesta-García, Luis Alejandro Márquez-Martínez, Raúl Rivera-Rodríguez, Jonatan Pena Ramirez, Joaquín Álvarez

“…By quantifying the convex envelope generated by the 2D projection of the system into all its phase portraits, the changes in the area of the system, as well as the volume of the attractor, are characterized. The results are compared with standard metrics for the study of chaotic systems, such as the Kaplan–Yorke dimension and the fractal dimension, and we also evaluate the frequency fluctuations in the dynamical response. …”

To Read or Not to Read Dickens in the Twenty-First Century: What If He Needed to Be Read Twice?, by Nathalie Jaëck

“…Despite their seemingly widely different styles and literary aims, they all contribute to build, in the second half of the nineteenth century, a coherent and autonomous, though still quite furtive, literary movement, in between Realism and Modernism, a movement that I will attempt to define and circumscribe. I would like to show that Dickens’s novels resemble in many crucial respects those of these writers of Adventure, that they share the same crucial preoccupations with finding a way out of Realism, and experiment on different technical ways to dismiss the Realist system. …”

Novel design of drug delivery in stented arteries:A numerical comparative study by Mario Grassi, Giuseppe Pontrelli, Luciano Teresi, Gabriele Grassi, Lorenzo Comel, Alessio Ferluga, Luigi Galasso

“…Implantation of drug eluting stents following percutaneoustransluminal angioplasty has revealed a well establishedtechnique for treating occlusions caused bythe atherosclerotic plaque.However, due to the risk of vascular re-occlusion,other alternative therapeutic strategiesof drug delivery are currently being investigated.Polymeric endoluminal pave stenting is an emerging technologyfor preventing blood erosion and for optimizing drug release.The classical and novel methodologies are compared througha mathematical model able to predict the evolution ofthe drug concentration in a cross-section of the wall.Though limited to an idealized configuration, the presentmodel is shown to catch most of the relevant aspects ofthe drug dynamics in a delivery system.Results of numerical simulations shows that a bi-layer gel paved stenting guarantees a uniform drug elution anda prolonged perfusionof the tissues, and remains a promising and effective techniquein drug delivery.…”
