Stochastic Production Planning with Regime-Switching: Sensitivity Analysis, Optimal Control, and Numerical Implementation by Dragos-Patru Covei

“…Practical implications include optimizing production strategies under fluctuating economic conditions and exploring future extensions such as correlated Brownian dynamics, non-quadratic cost functions, and geometric inventory frameworks. In contrast to earlier studies that imposed static or overly simplified regime-switching assumptions, our work presents a fully integrated framework—combining optimal control theory, a regime-dependent system of elliptic PDEs, and comprehensive numerical and sensitivity analyses—to more accurately capture the complex stochastic dynamics of production planning and thereby deliver enhanced, actionable insights for modern manufacturing environments.…”

Food science and COVID-19 by Klaus W. Lange

“…While no foods, single nutrients or dietary supplements are capable of preventing infection with COVID-19, a balanced diet containing sufficient amounts of macronutrients and diverse micronutrients is a prerequisite of an optimally functioning immune system. High-energy diets and obesity are major risk factors for a more severe course of COVID-19.Therefore, population-wide body weight control and weight reduction in overweight people are important preventive measures. …”

Violation of reserve filtration capacity of kidneys in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis by G. V. Prytkova

“…Materials and methods. 47 patients over the age of 18 years with early rheumatoid arthritis (eRA) were included into this study (duration of symptoms of the disease is no more than 12 months). The average age of patients was 50.71 ± 2.25 years (from 18 to 76 years), 80% of them were women, the average duration of the disease at the time of the initial study was 9.21 ± 0.43 months. …”

Exploring Quantum Capacitance and Adsorption Energy of Alkali Metal on NiO Using First‐Principles DFT Calculations by Sandesh V. Gaikwad, Pushpinder G. Bhatia, Digambar M. Sapkal, Deepak P. Dubal, Gaurav M. Lohar

“…ABSTRACT This study presents an analysis of the structural, electronic, and surface properties of NiO using first‐principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The investigation focuses on three lattice parameters (a = 4.23 Å, 4.187 Å, and 4.183 Å) to explore how lattice strain influences the electronic band structure, density of states (DOS), quantum capacitance (QC), and adsorption energies of alkali metals (Li, Na, K) on the NiO [001] and [111] planes. …”

The analysis of the quality of adolescents’ life in modern pedagogical practice in the context of their physical fitness level by Sosnin, Alexander Yu.

“…A comparative analysis of children’s and parents’ versions of the questionnaire indicated statistically significant differences in characteristics of physical functioning (running, walking, child’s mobility), “Life at school” (role functioning in a team and adaptation to academic workloads) with lower scores in the parents’ questionnaires; and characteristics of emotional functioning, in which adolescents indicated more significant experiences (feelings of fear, sadness, anxiety, bad mood) than in the view of their parents. …”
