Dynamics of a Viral Infection Model with General Contact Rate between Susceptible Cells and Virus Particles by Chenxi Dai, Cui Ma, Lijuan Song, Kaifa Wang

“…This paper investigates the dynamic behavior of a viral infection model with general contact rate between susceptible host cells and free virus particles. If the basic reproduction number of the virus is less than unity, by LaSalle’s invariance principle, the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. …”

The Interplay of Surface Composition, Mineralogy, and Physical Conditions That Affect the Surface Release Processes and Particle Environment of Mercury by Peter Wurz, Noah Jäggi, André Galli, Audrey Vorburger, Deborah Domingue, Paul S. Szabo, Johannes Benkhoff, Océane Barraud, Daniel Wolf Savin

“…Mercury has a very tenuous atmosphere starting at the surface, which is referred to as a surface-bound exosphere, where there are no collisions between exospheric particles. Having a surface-bound exosphere means that the particles in the exosphere have their origin on Mercury’s surface; thus, the composition of the exosphere is connected to the composition of the surface. …”

Harmonic Detection Method Based on Particle Swarm Optimization and Simulated Annealing Algorithm of Electrohydraulic Servo System by Tao Wang, Jinchun Song

“…In this paper, by using simulated annealing (SA) based harmonic detection, a kernel function is introduced to study area influence-based particle swarm optimization (PSO). Using a super accurate and fast global convergence brought by the combination of hybrid particle swarm optimization algorithm and simulated annealing algorithm, it can quickly jump out of the trap of traditional local optimization algorithms and a more stable, high-precision, as well as fast global convergence optimal solution can be obtained. …”
