Effect of General Cross-Immunity Protection and Antibody- Dependent Enhancement in Dengue Dynamics
Steindorf, V; Oliva, S.; Wu, J.; Aguiar, M.
(2022-02-13)
A mathematical model to describe the dynamic of a multiserotype infectious disease at the population level is studied. Applied to dengue fever epidemiology, we analyse a mathematical model with time delay to describe the ... -
Effect of Tissue Elasticity in Cardiac Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation Models
(2018)Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) is an effective treatment for different types of cardiac arrhythmias. However, major complications can occur, including thrombus formation and steam pops. We present a full 3D ... -
Electrochemical Potential Derived from Atomic Cluster Structures
Du, J.; Xiao, D.; Wen, B.; Melnik, R.; Kawazoe, Y. (2016-01-01)
Based on the atomic cluster structures and free electron approximation model, it is revealed that the electrochemical potential (ECP) for the system of interest is proportional to the reciprocal of atomic cluster radius ... -
Enhancing sampling in atomistic simulations of solid state materials for batteries: a focus on olivine NaFePO$_4$
Escribano, B.; Lozano, A.; Radivojevic, T.; Fernández-Pendás, M.; Carrasco, J.; Akhmatskaya, E. (2017-03-07)
The study of ion transport in electrochemically active materials for energy storage systems requires simulations on quantum-, atomistic- and meso-scales. The methods accessing these scales not only have to be effective but ... -
Enhancing Sampling in Computational Statistics Using Modified Hamiltonians
(2016-11-15)The Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) method has been recognized as a powerful sampling tool in computational statistics. In this thesis, we show that performance of HMC can be dramatically improved by replacing Hamiltonians ... -
Estimation of age-specific rates of reactivation and immune boosting of the varicella zoster virus
Marinelli, I.; van Lier, A.; de Melker, H.; Pugliese, A.; van Boven, M. (2016-12-31)
Studies into the impact of vaccination against the varicella zoster virus (VZV) have increasingly focused on herpes zoster (HZ), which is believed to be increasing in vaccinated populations with decreasing infection pressure. ... -
Ethics of a partially effective dengue vaccine: Lessons from the Philippines
Halstead, B.S.; Katzelnick, L.C.; Russell, P.K.; Markoff, L.; Aguiar, M.; Dans, L.R.; Dans A , L. (2020-07)
Dengvaxia, a chimeric yellow fever tetravalent dengue vaccine developed by SanofiPasteur is widely licensed in dengue-endemic countries. In a large cohort study Dengvaxia was found to partially protect children who had ... -
An even simpler understanding of quantum weak values
Sokolovski, D.; Akhmatskaya, E. (2018-01)
We explain the properties and clarify the meaning of quantum weak values using only the basic notions of elementary quantum mechanics. -
Excitation of plasmons in a two-dimensional electron gas with defects by microwaves: Wake-field method
Takhtamirov, E.; Melnik, R. (2011-12-31)
We develop an analytical method to find plasmons generated by microwaves in a two-dimensional electron gas with defects. The excitations are expressed in terms of the wake field of a charged particle moving in plasma. The ... -
Existence, Uniqueness, and Numerical Modeling of Wine Fermentation Based on Integro-Differential Equations
Schenk, C.; Schulz, V. (2022)
Predictive modeling is key for saving time and resources in manufacturing processes such as fermentation arising in food and chemical manufacturing. To make reliable predictions, realistic models representing the most ... -
The Experiment Data Depot: A Web-Based Software Tool for Biological Experimental Data Storage, Sharing, and Visualization
(2017-09-30)Although recent advances in synthetic biology allow us to produce biological designs more efficiently than ever, our ability to predict the end result of these designs is still nascent. Predictive models require large ... -
Exploring Li-ion conductivity in cubic, tetragonal and mixed-phase Al-substituted Li7La3Zr2O12 using atomistic simulations and effective medium theory
Bonilla, M.R.; García Daza, F.A.; Carrasco, J.; Akhmatskaya, E. (2019-08-15)
Garnet Li7La3Zr2O12 (LLZO) is a promising solid electrolyte candidate for solid-state Li-ion batteries, but at room temperature it crystallizes in a poorly Li-ion conductive tetragonal phase. To this end, partial substitution ... -
Extracting S-matrix poles for resonances from numerical scattering data: Type-II Padé reconstruction
Sokolovski, D.; Akhmatskaya, E.; Sen, S.K. (2011-12-31)
We present a FORTRAN 77 code for evaluation of resonance pole positions and residues of a numerical scattering matrix element in the complex energy (CE) as well as in the complex angular momentum (CAM) planes. Analytical ... -
