This paper presents a new hybrid approach integrating the cross-entropy (CE) algorithm and the sequential quadratic programming (SQP) technique to solve the economic load dispatch (ELD) problem related to electrical power generating units. Due to the introduction of the valve-point effect in the… |

This work presents a methodology for the short-term forecast of intense rainfall based on a neural network and the integration of Global Navigation and Positioning System (GNSS) and meteorological data. Precipitable water vapor (PWV) derived from GNSS is combined with surface pressure, surface… |

Imprinting Control Regions (ICRs) need to maintain their parental allele-specific DNA methylation during early embryogenesis despite genome-wide demethylation and subsequent de novo methylation. ZFP57 and KAP1 are both required for maintaining the repressive DNA methylation and H3-lysine-9-… |

We show in this paper that the roots $x_1$ and $x_2$ of a scalar quadratic polynomial $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$
with real or complex coefficients $a, b, c$ can be computed in an element-wise mixed stable manner, measured in
a relative sense. We also show that this is a stronger property than norm-wise… |

Asymptotically convolution Volterra equations are characterized by kernel functions which exponentially
decay to convolution ones. Their importance in the applications motivates a numerical analysis of the
asymptotic behavior of the solution. Here the quasi-convolution nature of the kernel is… |

Vaccine research is a combinatorial science requiring computational analysis of vaccine components, formulations and optimization. We have developed a framework that combines computational tools for the study of immune function and vaccine development. This framework, named ImmunoGrid combines… |

We present the open-source computer program JETSPIN, specifically designed to simulate the electro-spinning process of nanofibers. Its capabilities are shown with proper reference to the underlying model, as well as a description of the relevant input variables and associated test-case simulations… |

The linear-order effects of radiation-reaction on the classical scattering of two point masses, in general relativity, are derived by a variation-of-constants method. Explicit expressions for the radiation-reaction contributions to the changes of 4-momentum during scattering are given to linear… |
