An exponentially fitted box method, known as the Scharfetter-Gummel box method, for the semiconductor device équations in the Slotboom variables is analysed. The method is formulated as a Petrov-Galerkin finite element ...

The relationship of pain sensitivity with pain and disability in low back pain (LBP) is complicated. It has been suggested increased understanding of dynamic quantitative sensory testing (QST) might be useful in increasing ...

This research presented a holistic approach in determining the trade-off optimized Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) tunings for both servo and regulatory controls of the cascade control loop by using Genetic Algorithm ...

Community and governmental agencies often address disaster recovery and resilience. However, few studies focus on how to achieve self-reliance and use the psychological resources within to be adaptive and resilient in ...

Time reversibility of waves within a periodic structure constrains their properties but allows both elastic and inelastic scattering. Time reversible elastic scattering leads to Bloch-Floquet waves (BFW) exhibiting passing ...
