Abstract Magma differentiation in arc settings has usually been attributed to an interplay of processes (fractional crystallization, assimilation, and magma mixing). Homogeneous fractional crystallization widely used model the magmatic evolution volcanic systems due its simplicity, even though boundary layer fractionation (BLF) proposed as a preponderant process hydrous systems. Both models pro...

Similar to the submissions of the previous years our submissions are based on the so-called block-level features (BLF). The main change in our 2014 submission was the modification of the feature extraction steps for the Logarithmic Fluctuation Pattern. Beside this modification the structure of all three algorithms did not changed. This abstract gives an overview on the feature set and presents ...

Modeling errors, external loads and output constraints will affect the tracking control of n-joint manipulator driven by permanent magnet synchronous motor. To solve above problems, smooth-switching for backstepping gain strategy based on Barrier Lyapunov Function adaptive neural network (BLF-ANBG) is proposed. First, method established to approximate modeling unknown unenforced inputs. Then, f...

This paper investigates the adaptive attitude tracking problem for rigid satellite involving output constraint, input saturation, time delay, and external disturbance by integrating barrier Lyapunov function (BLF) prescribed performance control (PPC). In contrast to existing approaches, delay is addressed Pade approximation, actual concerning saturation obtained utilizing an auxiliary variable ...

The control performance of quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in complex environments can be affected by external disturbances and other factors. In this paper, an adaptive neural network backstepping controller based on the barrier Lyapunov function (BLF) is designed for a UAV with internal uncertainties, input–output constraints disturbances. Radial basis networks are used to approxima...

Abstract Human proximity to water and its dynamics are important understanding the socio-hydrological dilemma between using floodplains avoiding flood risk. However, previous studies have not distinguished of built-up land in (BLF) outside (BLOF). This article provides a new spatiotemporal perspective BLF proximities for changing risk China. The results show that China’s BLFs had an average 5.4...

The effect of ovotransferrin (ovoTF), human lactoferrin (hLF) and bovine lactoferrin (bLF) on the obligate intracellular pathogen Chlamydophila (Cp.) psittaci was evaluated using a model of Buffalo Green Monkey kidney (BGM) cells and HD11 chicken macrophages as artificial hosts. Firstly, the effect of transferrins on the infectivity of the bacteria was evaluated. Pre-incubation of Cp. psittaci ...

A boosting framework for constructing orthogonal features targeted to a given loss function is developed. Combined with techniques from spectral methods such as PCA and PLS, an orthogonal boosting algorithm for linear hypothesis is used to efficiently construct orthogonal latent features selected to optimize the given loss function. The method is generalized to construct orthogonal nonlinear fe...

---------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract Electromyography (EMG) is an electrodiagnostic technique for evaluating and recording the electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles. EMG is performed using an instrument called an Electromyograph, to produce a record called an Electromyogram...

Variants of the prototype Alphavirus, Sindbis (SINV), were used in per os infections of adult female mosquitoes to investigate arbovirus interaction with the salivary gland (SG). Infection of Aedine mosquitoes with AR339, a heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG)-dependent variant, resulted in gross pathology in the SG lateral lobes while infection with TR339, a HSPG-independent variant, resulted i...
