Based on a continuum theory, we investigate the manipulation of the nonequilibrium behavior of a sheared liquid crystal via closed-loop feedback control. Our goal is to stabilize a specific dynamical state, that is, the stationary "flow alignment," under conditions where the uncontrolled system displays oscillatory director dynamics with in-plane symmetry. To this end we employ time-delayed fee...

Background: Lisdexamfetamine is a stimulant used for the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Limited data exist regarding the presentation and management of patients with lisdexamfetamine toxicity. Case Presentation: A 17-year-old female with history of prior suicide attempt presented to the emergency department after ingestion of 50 lisdexamfetamine 40 mg capsules which belo...

A method of determining the position readout sectors a time projection chamber using experimental data is proposed. Considering results modeling response sensitive elements multipurpose detector, three types tracks were reconstructed: cosmic muons, beams laser detector system, and muons from interaction nuclei. Employing experiment simulation proposed finding orientation chamber, accuracy align...

First-generation college students comprise a sizable number of the student population in colleges and universities across nation. As faculty are tasked with teaching supporting these their courses, it is important to consider alignment perspectives needs first-generation students. This study explored 176 post-baccalaureate 54 at large, urban Hispanic-serving university California, nearly 77% ca...
