Finite-Time Path-Following Control of Underactuated AUVs with Actuator Limits Using Disturbance Observer-Based Backstepping Control by MohammadReza Ebrahimpour, Mihai Lungu

“…A path-following error system is built in a path frame using the virtual guidance method. The proposed cascaded closed-loop control scheme can be described in two separate steps: (1) A kinematic law based on a finite-time backstepping control (FTBSC) is introduced to transform the 3D path-following position errors into the command velocities; (2) The actual control inputs are designed in the dynamic controller using an adaptive fixed-time disturbance observer (AFTDO)-based FTBSC to stabilize the velocity tracking errors. …”

Tomato mitogen-activated protein kinase: mechanisms of adaptation in response to biotic and abiotic stresses by Yumei Shi, Zhifang Zhang, Zhenghao Yan, Honglong Chu, Changxin Luo

“…Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in tomato plants have crucial functions of mediating responses to environmental cues, internal signals, defense mechanisms, cellular processes, and plant development and growth. MAPK cascades respond to various environmental stress factors by modulating associated gene expression, influencing plant hormone synthesis, and facilitating interactions with other environmental stressors. …”

Biological Processes that Prepare Mammalian Spermatozoa to Interact with an Egg and Fertilize It by Daulat R. P. Tulsiani, Aïda Abou-Haila

“…The tight irreversible binding of the opposite gametes triggers a Ca2+-dependent signal transduction cascade. The net result is the fusion of the sperm plasma membrane and the underlying outer acrosomal membrane at multiple sites that causes the release of acrosomal contents at the site of sperm-egg adhesion. …”
