This letter is in response to a recent review by DeTar and Gottlieb about lattice QCD that has recently appeared in Physics Today. It also is partially motivated by a separate review written by DeGrand. My basic point is that one should be more responsible when presenting numerical results as coming from ab initio calculations. In turn, this leads me to the suggestion that in lattice field theo...

Robust control system analysis and design is based on an uncertainty description, called a linear fractional transformation (LFT), which separates the uncertain (or varying) part of the system from the nominal system. These models are also useful in the design of gain-scheduled control systems based on Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) methods. Low-order LFT models are difficult to form for proble...

This brief proposes a new linear fractional transformation (LFT) modeling approach for uncertain parameter-varying (LPV) multibody systems with parameter-dependent equilibrium. Traditional approaches, which consist of building the nonlinear model whole structure and linearizing it around equilibrium after numerical trimming, do not allow to isolate parametric variations LFT form. Although addit...

AIMS AND METHODS To assess the existing physical care of patients with severe mental illness and whether it has complied with national protocols and guidelines. Medical notes of patients who has been on risperidone long acting injectable depot for a year were reviewed and a form was filled with the information of each patient including weight, physical examination, fasting blood sugar (FBS), Se...

Liver is the main organ which can metabolize many drugs or chemical agents. Toxic events developed by drugs are one of the most common causes of liver damage. Toxic hepatitis can be encountered in different clinical situations, such as acute hepatitis, fulminant hepatitis chronic hepatitis or cirrhosis. We aimed to report a case of asymptomatic toxic hepatitis in a patient taking propylthiourac...

INTRODUCTION Vulnerability of young people and frustration of their basic biological, emotional, cognitive and social needs can induce a series of psycho-pathological manifestations, including aggression. OBJECTIVE Aim of this study is to examine the manifestations of aggressiveness in young people and to establish the difference between aggressive responses of two age groups; adolescents age...

The nonlinear optimal Bayes filter is computationally intractable and at present there exists no analytical method for the nonlinear filtering problem. The standard approaches for linear approximation in the literature work reasonably well for the class of systems that are only mildly nonlinear. In this paper, we introduce a filtering approach for the most general class of nonlinear models by t...
