Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been widely used in mobile devices, energy storage power stations, medical equipment, and other fields, became an indispensable technological product modern society. However, the capacity degradation of LIBs limits their long-term deployment, which is not conducive to saving resources. What more, it will lead safety problems when battery degraded. Failure a key...

The availability of a periodic inspection system under mixed maintenance policies is studied in this paper. To accommodate the characteristic multiple failure modes for complex systems, failures can be divided into two modes: hard and soft failure. When occurs, corresponding corrective will performed, taking random time perfect policy; contrast, if found, preventive imperfect policy. dynamic ag...

Decapping represents a critical control point in regulating expression of protein coding genes. Here, we demonstrate that decapping also modulates expression of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). Specifically, levels of >100 lncRNAs in yeast are controlled by decapping and are degraded by a pathway that occurs independent of decapping regulators. We find many lncRNAs degraded by DCP2 are expressed ...

This paper presents the development of an integrated reconfigurable control allocation approach. This integrated approach combines frequencyapportioned control allocation with actuator failure detection and isolation. Frequency-apportioned control allocation integrates innovative control effectors with conventional aerodynamic controls and considers both the steady-state performance and frequen...

BACKGROUND In the management of cystic fibrosis (CF), rhDNase-I inhalation is widely used to facilitate the removal of the highly viscous and elastic mucus (often called sputum) from the lungs. However, an important group of CF patients does not benefit from rhDNase-I treatment. A study was undertaken to elucidate the reason for the failure of rhDNase-I in these patients and to evaluate strateg...
