The term functionomics (Amin 2003, Neumann et al. 2004) refers to a postgenomic integrated Systems Biology (Attur et al. 2002) using a multidimensional approach for cells, tissues and organs. It considers current or future involvement among genomics, proteomics or metabolomics, including the main factors that cause biological responses and modulation under different conditions. Our objective in...

In this paper, we present an unsplit method for the time-dependent compressible Navier-Stokes equations in two and three dimensions. We use a a conservative, second-order Godunov algorithm. We use a Cartesian grid, embedded boundary method to resolve complex boundaries. We solve for viscous and conductive terms with a second-order semiimplicit algorithm. We demonstrate second-order accuracy in ...

Potential functions g(x) : R→ R that are piecewise smooth with a finite number of discontinuities have expectation 〈 g(wTx) 〉 qw(w|A,b,θ) that is smooth in A,b provided that qv(v) is smooth in v. In this context we say that a function is smooth if it has continuous second order partial derivatives. Specifically, we require that g(x) is piecewise smooth and so can be expressed as a sum of functions

Over the past decade, second messenger communication has emerged as one of the intriguing topics in the field of vasomotor control. Of particular interest has been the idea of second messenger flux from smooth muscle to endothelium initiating a feedback response that attenuates constriction. Mechanistic details of the precise signaling cascade have until recently remained elusive. In this persp...

This paper is devoted to deformation theory of "anabelian" representations of the absolute Galois group landing in outer automorphism group of the algebraic fundamental group of a hyperbolic smooth curve defined over a number-field. In the first part of this paper, we obtained several universal deformations for Lie-algebra versions of the above representation using the Schlessinger criteria for...

In this paper, under the existence of system uncertainties, external disturbances, and input nonlinearity, global finite time synchronization between two identical attractors which belong to a class of second-order chaotic nonlinear gyros are achieved by considering a method of continuous smooth second-order sliding mode control (HOAMSC). It is proved that the proposed controller is robust to m...
