Imaging with time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) has expanded very rapidly with the development of gold cluster Siero Anti-Macchie Mani ion sources (Au3+).It is now possible to acquire ion density maps (ion images) on a tissue section without any treatment and with a lateral resolution of few micrometers.In this article, we ha
This paper addresses an approximation-based adaptive event-triggered control problem against unknown injection data in full state measurements and an actuator of systems with unknown strict-feedback nonlinearities.It is assumed that full state variables measured for state-feedback control are corrupted by unknown injection data that denote cyber at
Elasmobranchii (sharks and rays), which have peculiar and vulnerable life-history traits, are highly threatened by fishing activities.Indeed, between 53% and 71% of Mediterranean elasmobranch species are at risk of extinction.In this context, using the abundance MSY (AMSY) model, the present study provides an assessment of 20 batoids and 16 shark s
While all lower limb prosthesis walkers have a high risk of tripping and/or falling, above knee prosthesis users are reported to fall more frequently.Recognising this, engineers designed microprocessor knees (MPK) to Lite-Plan HRN Conversion Kits help mitigate these risks, but to what extent these devices reduce this disparity between above and bel
The Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC) is an international research group dedicated to promoting collaboration among scientific investigators in the study of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Currently, Dongs most SLICC members are based in North America and Europe, with limited representation from other regions.SLICC recog
