Can we express biophysical neuronal models as integrate-and-fire (IF) models with leakage coefficients which are no longer constant, as in the conventional leaky IF model, but functions of membrane potential and other biophysical variables? We illustrate the answer to this question using the FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) model as an example. A novel IF type model, the IF-FHN model, which approximates t...

We consider optimizations of Lenoir engine within a quantum dynamical field consisting N noninteracting fermions trapped in multilevel infinite potential square-well. Fermions play role as working substance the with each particle nested at different levels energy. optimized this heat model by analysing physical parameter and deriving optimum properties model. The we investigated consists one hi...

leakage in water distribution networks causes waste of water and economical losses. in this paper a new method is presented to calculate nodal and pipes leakage in water distribution systems using capabilities of epanet2.10 software. the method estimate the total water losses in the system based on iwa methodology using minimum night flow (mnf) measurements. recognising the pressure dependency ...

In recent years, there has been a major effort to design cryptographic schemes that remain secure even if part of the secret key is leaked. This is due to a recent proliferation of side channel attacks which, through various physical means, can recover part of the secret key. We explore the possibility of achieving security even with continual leakage, i.e., even if some information is leaked e...

BACKGROUND After left atrial appendage (LAA) device closure, peri-device leakage into the LAA persists due to incomplete occlusion. We hypothesized that pre-procedural three-dimensional (3D) geometric analysis of the interatrial septum (IAS) and LAA orifice can predict this leakage. We investigated the predictive parameters of LAA device closure obtained from baseline cardiac computerized tomog...

Due to the characteristics of inductance parameter mismatch and back electromotive force harmonics caused by novel leakage flux branches other non-ideal factors for variable-leakage-flux permanent magnet (VLF-PM) motor, its control system suffers from a deteriorated performance rotor position estimation. To overcome problems mentioned above, an adaptive tracking estimator is proposed in this pa...

the design and application of a fuzzy logic based controller to a leakage current relay waspresented in this paper. a novel approach based on fuzzy logic to form the tripping action of leakagecurrent relay was investigated. in addition to the theoretical aspect of fuzzy logic, detection of a leakagecurrent, measurement of the leakage current, determination of its duration, trip opening of fault...
