An SIRS Epidemic Model Supervised by a Control System for Vaccination and Treatment Actions Which Involve First-Order Dynamics and Vaccination of Newborns
(MDPI, 2021-12-23)
This paper analyses an SIRS epidemic model with the vaccination of susceptible individuals and treatment of infectious ones. Both actions are governed by a designed control system whose inputs are the subpopulations of the ...
Elucidating the role of shape anisotropy infaceted magnetic nanoparticles using biogenicmagnetosomes as a model
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-08-14)
Shape anisotropy is of primary importance to understand the magnetic behavior of nanoparticles, but a rigorous analysis in polyhedral morphologies is missing. In this work, a model based on finite element techniques has ...
Magnetosomes could be protective shields against metal stress in magnetotactic bacteria
(Nature, 2020-07)
Magnetotactic bacteria are aquatic microorganisms with the ability to biomineralise membrane-enclosed magnetic nanoparticles, called magnetosomes. These magnetosomes are arranged into a chain that behaves as a magnetic ...
Magnetotactic bacteria for cancer therapy
(American Institute of Physics, 2020-08-21)
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are aquatic microorganisms that are able to biomineralize membrane-enclosed magnetic nanoparticles called magnetosomes. Inside the MTB, magnetosomes are arranged in a chain that allows MTB to ...
The Performance of the Magneto-Impedance Effect for the Detection of Superparamagnetic Particles
(MDPI, 2020-03-31)
The performance of magneto-impedance sensors to detect the presence and concentration of magnetic nanoparticles is investigated, using finite element calculations to directly solve Maxwell’s equations. In the case ...
Half-Hedgehog Spin Textures in sub-100 nm Soft Magnetic Nanodots
(Royal Society Of Chemistry, 2020-09-28)
Topologically non-trivial structures such as magnetic skyrmions are nanometric spin textures of outstanding potential for spintronic applications due to their unique features. It is well known that Neel skyrmions of definite ...
A Study on COVID-19 Incidence in Europe through Two SEIR Epidemic Models Which Consider Mixed Contagions from Asymptomatic and Symptomatic Individuals
(MDPI, 2021-07-06)
The impact of the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) on the world has been partially controlled through different measures of social isolation and prophylaxis. Two new SEIR (Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Recovered) models are proposed ...
On the Properties of a Class of Impulsive Competition Beverton–Holt Equations
(MDPI, 2021-09-28)
This paper is devoted to a type of combined impulsive discrete Beverton–Holt equations in ecology when eventual discontinuities at sampling time instants are considered. Such discontinuities could be interpreted as impulses ...
Complex Formalism of the Linear Beam Dynamics
(IEEE-Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2021-03)
It has long been known that the ellipse normally used to model the phase space extension of a beam in linear dynamics may be represented by a complex number which can be interpreted similar to a complex impedance in ...
Neutron Scattering as a Powerful Tool to Investigate Magnetic Shape Memory Alloys: A Review
(MDPI, 2021-05-18)
Magnetic shape memory alloys (MSMAs) are an interesting class of smart materials characterized by undergoing macroscopic deformations upon the application of a pertinent stimulus: temperature, stress and/or external magnetic ...
