Nonnegative weak solution to the degenerate viscous Cahn–Hilliard equation by Toai Luong

“…We define the concept of a weak solution and establish the existence of such a solution by taking limits of solutions to the viscous Cahn–Hilliard equation with positive mobility. Additionally, assuming that the initial data is positive, we demonstrate that the weak solution remains nonnegative and is not identically zero. …”

Deployment scheme of RSU based on connection time in VANET by Zhengchao DING, Zhenchun WEI, Lin FENG

“…For the roadside unit (RSU) placement problem in vehicular Ad Hoc network (VANET),the deployment scheme of RSU based on connection time was proposed.The scheme find the optimal positions of RSU for maximizing the number of vehicles while ensuring a certain level of connection time under the limited number of RSU.The problem was modeled as a maximum coverage problem,and a binary particle swarm algorithm was designed to solve it.The simulation experiment was carried out with the real Beijing road network map and taxi GPS data.The simulation results show that the algorithm is convergent,stable and feasible.Compared with the greedy algorithm,the proposed scheme can provide continuous network service for more vehicles.…”

Preconception paternal mental health history as predictor of antenatal depression in pregnant women by Laura Orsolini, Imran Gokcen Yılmaz-Karaman, Matteo Bottaro, Silvia Bellagamba, Giulia Francesconi, Umberto Volpe

“…In our sample, a prevalence of 13.2% in antenatal depression was found. The binary logistic regression model showed that the higher maternal age (OR = 1.320; p = 0.005), gestational comorbidity (OR = 10.931; p = 0.010), pregnant women’s (OR = 19.001; p = 0,001) and their partner’s positive history (OR = 16.536; p = 0.004) for mental disorder significantly predicted the presence of antenatal depression in our sample. …”
