<p style='text-indent:20px;'>We present a new epidemic model highlighting the roles of immunization time and concurrent use different vaccines in vaccination campaign. To this aim, we introduce intra-compartmental dynamics, procedure that can be extended to various other situations, as detailed through specific case studies considered herein, where dynamics <i>within</i> compa...

Swarm stability is concerned for descriptor compartmental networks with linear time-invariant protocol. Compartmental network is a specific type of dynamical multi-agent system. Necessary and sufficient conditions for both consensus and critical swarm stability are presented, which require a joint matching between the interactive dynamics of nearest neighboring vertices and the Laplacian spectr...

To investigate the morphological and electrical development of neurons using computer models it is useful to extend the compartmental modelling framework to include the situation where neurites (dendrites and axons) may change their length, diameter and membrane characteristics over time. This requires changing the size and other properties of existing compartments and adding new compartments d...

Introduction: Compared to single voxel spectroscopy, phase encoded chemical shift imaging (CSI) has the advantage of obtaining spectra from a rectangular array of voxels in a single study. However, long acquisition times are required to achieve reasonable spatial resolutions due to the time consuming phase encoding steps, which limits clinical applications of CSI. Hu et. al. (1) developed a tec...
