Statistical Analysis of a Method to Predict Drug–Polymer Miscibility
2015
In this study, a method proposed to predict drug-polymer miscibility from differential scanning calorimetry measurements was subjected to statistical analysis. The method is relatively fast and inexpensive and has gained popularity as a result of the increasing interest in the formulation of drugs as amorphous solid dispersions. However, it does not include a standard statistical assessment of the experimental uncertainty by means of a confidence interval. In addition, it applies a routine mathematical operation known as "transformation to linearity," which previously has been shown to be subject to a substantial bias. The statistical analysis performed in this present study revealed that t…
New Results in Generalized Minimum Variance Control of Computer Networks
2014
In this paper new results in adaptive (generalized) minimum variance control of packet switching computer networks are presented. New solutions, corresponding to the new inverses of the nonsquare polynomial matrices, can be used for design of robust control of multivariable systems with different number of inputs and outputs. Application of polynomial matrix inverses with arbitrary degrees of freedom creates the possibilities to optimal control of computer networks in terms of usage their maximal bandwidth. Simulation examples made in Matlab environment show big potential of presented approach. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.itc.43.3.6268
Pairs of solutions for Robin problems with an indefinite and unbounded potential, resonant at zero and infinity
2018
We consider a semilinear Robin problem driven by the Laplacian plus an indefinite and unbounded potential and a Caratheodory reaction term which is resonant both at zero and $$\pm \infty $$ . Using the Lyapunov–Schmidt reduction method and critical groups (Morse theory), we show that the problem has at least two nontrivial smooth solutions.
Quasi-linear parabolic equations with degenerate coercivity having a quadratic gradient term
2006
We study existence and regularity of distributional solutions for possibly degenerate quasi-linear parabolic problems having a first order term which grows quadratically in the gradient. The model problem we refer to is the following (1){ut−div(α(u)∇u)=β(u)|∇u|2+f(x,t),in Ω×]0,T[;u(x,t)=0,on ∂Ω×]0,T[;u(x,0)=u0(x),in Ω. Here Ω is a bounded open set in RN, T>0. The unknown function u=u(x,t) depends on x∈Ω and t∈]0,T[. The symbol ∇u denotes the gradient of u with respect to x. The real functions α, β are continuous; moreover α is positive, bounded and may vanish at ±∞. As far as the data are concerned, we require the following assumptions: ∫ΩΦ(u0(x))dx<∞ where Φ is a convenient function which …
Representations and derivations of quasi ∗-algebras induced by local modifications of states
2009
Abstract The relationship between the GNS representations associated to states on a quasi ∗-algebra, which are local modifications of each other (in a sense which we will discuss) is examined. The role of local modifications on the spatiality of the corresponding induced derivations describing the dynamics of a given quantum system with infinite degrees of freedom is discussed.
Understanding Prediction Limits Through Unbiased Branches
2006
The majority of currently available branch predictors base their prediction accuracy on the previous k branch outcomes. Such predictors sustain high prediction accuracy but they do not consider the impact of unbiased branches which are difficult-to-predict. In this paper, we quantify and evaluate the impact of unbiased branches and show that any gain in prediction accuracy is proportional to the frequency of unbiased branches. By using the SPECcpu2000 integer benchmarks we show that there are a significant proportion of unbiased branches which severely impact on prediction accuracy (averaging between 6% and 24% depending on the prediction context used).
Robin problems with general potential and double resonance
2017
Abstract We consider a semilinear elliptic problem with Robin boundary condition and an indefinite and unbounded potential. The reaction term is a Caratheodory function exhibiting linear growth near ± ∞ . We assume that double resonance occurs with respect to any positive spectral interval. Using variational tools and critical groups, we show that the problem has a nontrivial smooth solution.
Mieczysław Szczuka. Interpretazioni grafiche
2016
Questo studio riguarda l’analisi di un progetto di Mieczysław Szczuka, figura di spicco dell’avanguardia polacca. Come molti dei costruttivisti polacchi, Szczuka concepiva il suo lavoro non soltanto come mezzo di visualizzazione della traccia grafica, ma anche come ulteriore possibilità per affrontare la questione dell’esperienza visiva dal punto di vista teorico-compositivo.il progetto oggetto di studio è stato pubblicato per la prima volta nella rivista “Blok”, nel 1925 e costituisce una sorta di manifesto dell’architettura polacca moderna che definisce la configurazione della nuova cultura olistica, quale fulcro di propagazione e di fusione tra architettura, arte e musica. Il ri-disegno …
Redrawing the Past, reimaiging the Future. Gamification project for the reinterpretation of historical architecture
2021
The objectives of the work we present concern the reinterpretation of architectural traces of the past with a "gamification" project for educational laboratories to be activated in schools of different order and grade. The methodology used starts from the 3D-reconstruction of disappeared architectures, urban plots where the stratification lends itself to different interpretations, based on the documentary information found and the hypotheses that can be spent directly from reading the artefact. Then it translates everything into diversified outputs to tell the evolution of the monument and the site and its conjectural reconfiguration: from immersive 3D visualization to 3D printing of modula…
Due progetti di Walter Gropius
2008
Il saggio riguarda l'analisi grafica e il ridisegno di due case di Gropius. In particolare Francesco Maggio, coautore, si è occupato dello studio di Casa Wilinsky, progetto eseguito dall'architetto berlinese tra il 1928 e il 1929. La costruzione del modello digitale e l'analisi delle sue rappresentazioni hanno permesso di ricostruire un tassello poco conosciuto dell'architettura contemporanea evidenziandone i contenuti De Stijl.
