NORMAL FORM SOLUTION OF REDUCED ORDER OSCILLATING SYSTEMS

This paper describes a preliminary investigation into the use of normal form theory for modelling large non-linear dynamical systems. Limit cycle oscillations are determined for simple two-degree-of-freedom double pendulum systems. The double pendulum system is reduced into its centre manifold before computing normal forms. Normal forms are obtained using a period averaging method which is appl...

Application of Oscillating Saw for Lumbar en Bloc Laminectomy: A Case Series

Background: An oscillating bone saw is rarely used to perform laminectomy. The purpose of this study was to describea relatively quick and harmless technique for multilevel laminectomy in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) usingan oscillating bone saw to find out how this instrument affects the time of surgery and rate of complications.Methods: This prospective study w...

Bimodal Protein Distributions in Heterogeneous Oscillating Systems

Bimodal distributions of protein activities in signaling systems are often interpreted as indicators of underlying switch-like responses and bistable dynamics. We investigate the emergence of bimodal protein distributions by analyzing a less appreciated mechanism: oscillating signaling systems with varying amplitude, phase and frequency due to cell-to-cell variability. We support our analysis b...
