2017 journal article

Utilization of the bootstrap method for determining confidence intervals of parameters for a model of MAP1B protein transport in axons

JOURNAL OF THEORETICAL BIOLOGY, 419, 350–361.

By: I. Kuznetsov & A. Kuznetsov

author keywords: Neuron; Slow axonal transport; Parameter determination; Resampling residuals; Bootstrapping
MeSH headings : Algorithms; Animals; Axonal Transport; Axons / metabolism; Confidence Intervals; Kinetics; Microtubule-Associated Proteins / metabolism; Microtubules / metabolism; Models, Theoretical; Neurons / metabolism; Protein Transport
TL;DR: This paper develops a model of axonal transport of MAP1B protein using a global minimum search algorithm to find parameter values that minimize the discrepancy between model predictions and published experimental results and established that some processes can be dropped from the model without losing accuracy.

Tracking control of hybrid systems with state-triggered jumps and stochastic events and its application

IET CONTROL THEORY AND APPLICATIONS, 11(7), 1024–1033.

By: T. Yang*, F. Wu n & L. Zhang*

author keywords: asymptotic stability; tracking; trajectory control; stochastic systems; hybrid systems; state-triggered jumps; stochastic events; tracking control problem; time-varying reference trajectories; Euclidean distance; peaking phenomena; tracking error; asymptotic stability criteria; non-Euclidean measure; flexible single-link robotic arm; hybrid controller
TL;DR: The tracking control problem of a simplified flexible single-link robotic arm is successfully solved by the hybrid controller by invoking a novel definition of the tracking error which is insensitive to state-triggered jumps and stochastic events and exploiting the asymptotic stability criteria.

2017 journal article

A reconstructed discontinuous Galerkin method for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations on three-dimensional hybrid grids

COMPUTERS & FLUIDS, 152, 217–230.

By: X. Liu n, L. Xuan n, Y. Xia* & H. Luo n

author keywords: Discontinuous Galerkin method; WENO reconstruction; Unstructured grids; Compressible Navier-Stokes equation
TL;DR: The numerical results demonstrate that the rDG(P 1 P 2 ) method is able to achieve the designed third-order of accuracy at a cost slightly higher than its underlying second-order DG method, outperform the third order DG method in terms of both computing costs and storage requirements, and obtain reliable and accurate solutions to the direct numerical simulation (DNS) of compressible turbulent flows.
