We consider the angular averaging of solutions to time-harmonic transport equations. Such quantities model measurements obtained for instance in optical tomography, a medical imaging technique, with frequency-modulated sources. Frequency modulated sources are useful to separate ballistic photons from photons that undergo scattering with the underlying medium. This paper presents a precise asymp...

In this work, we employ a kinetic theory based approach to predict the hydrodynamic forces on electromechanical resonators operating in gaseous media. Using the Boltzmann-BGK equation, we investigate the influence of the resonator geometry on the fluid resistance in the entire range of nondimensional frequency variation 0 ≤ τω ≤ ∞; here the fluid relaxation time τ = μ/p is determined by the gas...

The dispersion relation is fundamental to a physical phenomenon that develops in both space and time. This equation connects the spatial and temporal frequencies involved in the dynamic process through the material constants. Electromagnetic plane waves propagating in homogeneous media are bound by simple dispersion relation, which sets the magnitude of the spatial frequency, k, as being propor...

The controlled spatial separation of submicrometre particles by a combination of dielectrophoretic and electrohydrodynamic forces is demonstrated for the first time. Using planar microelectrode arrays, a mixture of two differently sized particles (93 nm and 216 nm diameter latex spheres) has been separated into constituent components. The particles separate into distinct bands, spatially separa...

We introduce a complete parameterization of the family of two-dimensional steerable wavelets that are polar-separable in the Fourier domain under the constraint of self-reversibility. These wavelets are constructed by multiorder generalized Riesz transformation of a primary isotropic bandpass pyramid. The backbone of the transform (pyramid) is characterized by a radial frequency profile functio...

Abstact：objective To investigate acute kidney injury (AKI) in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who received high dose methotrexate (MTX) chemotherapy and explore the corresponding treatment. Methods 180 children who received high dose MTX chemotherapy were observed with serum MTX concentration and serum creatinine. Patients with AKI of stage 3 or poor response to conventional tr...

We study the splitting of invariant manifolds of whiskered tori with two frequencies in nearlyintegrable Hamiltonian systems, such that the hyperbolic part is given by a pendulum. We consider a two-dimensional torus with a fast frequency vector ω/ √ ε, with ω = (1,Ω) where Ω is an irrational number of constant type, i.e. a number whose continued fraction has bounded entries. Applying the Poinca...

The epidemiology of acute kidney injury (AKI) has been difficult to explore in the past, due to different definitions across various studies. Nevertheless, this is a very important topic today in light of the high morbidity and mortality of critically ill patients presenting renal dysfunction during their stay in the intensive care unit (ICU). The case mix has changed over the years, and AKI is...

We investigate dynamical scaling properties in the integer quantum Hall effect for non-interacting electrons at zero temperature, by means of the frequency-induced peak broadening of the dissipative longitudinal conductivity σ xx (ω). This quantity is calculated numerically in the lowest Landau level for various values of the Fermi energy E, of the frequency ω, and of the system size L. Data fo...

Genetic variations in TGF-β and IFN-γ may interfere with proinflammatory cytokine production and, consequently, may be involved with inflammatory diseases, as acute kidney injury (AKI). We considered that genetic polymorphisms of these cytokines may have a crucial role in the outcome of critically ill patients. To investigate whether the genetic polymorphisms of rs1800470 (codon 10 T/C), rs1800...
