A submeasure θ on a Boolean algebra B is pathological if it does not dominate a positive finitely additive functional. It is ε-exhaustive if every sequence {An} of pairwise disjoint sets in B satisfies lim supn θ(An) ≤ ε. It is exhaustive if it is 0-exhaustive. It is normalized if θ(1B) = 1. Question 1. Is there a normalized exhaustive pathological submeasure on the algebra of clopen subsets of...

This paper proposes a simple but effective design method of PID control using a numerical optimization method. In order to achieve both stability and performance, gain and phase margins and performance indices of step response directly compose of the cost function. Hence, the proposed approach is a multiobjective optimization problem. The main effectiveness of this approach results from the str...

Metabolic responses (rates of CO2 production from 14C-labelled glucose or lactate, and total O2 consumption) of red blood cells were monitored in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) at rest and during 12 h of recovery from exhaustive exercise. Extracellular acid-base status, red blood cell intracellular pH (pHi), and plasma metabolite and catecholamine levels were recorded simultaneously. Despi...

Interest in discovering combinations of genetic markers from case-control studies, such as Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS), that are strongly associated to diseases has increased in recent years. Detecting epistasis, i.e. interactions among k markers (k ≥ 2), is an important but time consuming operation since statistical computations have to be performed for each k-tuple of measured mark...

the aim of this study was to examine the effect of omega-3 supplementation on serum prostaglandin e2 in female athletes after a single bout of exhaustive exercsie. 22 female athletes (mean age 21.17±0.78 yr, body mass 21.24±2.32, vo2max 40.55±4.97) participated in study and divided into supplementation and placebo groups. supplementation subjects daily received an omega-3 capsule containing eic...
