This paper proposes and implements a fractional split model that predicts the VMT mix on links as a function of the functional roadway classification of the link, the physical attributes of the link, the operating conditions on the link, and the attributes of the traffic analysis zone in which the link lies. The fractional split model is an useful formulation for VMT mix analysis because it acc...

An influence effect of fractional bandwidth of ultrasound imaging transducer on the gain of compressed echo signal being the complementary Golay sequences (CGS) with different spectral widths is studied in this paper. Also, a new composing transmission method of CGS is discussed together with compression technique applied in order to increase the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and penetration. The...

Synaptic vesicle exocytosis relies on the tethering of release ready vesicles close to voltage-gated Ca2+ channels and specific lipids at the future site of fusion. This enables rapid and efficient neurotransmitter secretion during presynaptic depolarization by an action potential. Extensive research has revealed that this tethering is mediated by an active zone, a protein dense structure that ...

In this paper, a Fractional Adaptive Fuzzy Logic Control (FAFLC) strategy based on active fractional sliding mode (FSM) theory is considered to synchronize chaotic fractional-order systems. Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems are used to estimate the plant dynamics represented by unknown fractional order functions. One of the main contributions in this work is to combine an adaptive fractional order PI...

The dynamic behavior of fractional order systems have received increasing attention in recent years, In this paper the reliable phase synchronization problem between two coupled chaotic fractional order system with varying time is constructed, An active delay expected synchronization between two coupled chaotic fractional order systems and hyperchaotic fractional order systems is analyzed by ut...

in this paper, we prove the existence and uniqueness results to the random fractional functional differential equations under assumptions more general than the lipschitz type condition. moreover, the distance between exact solution and appropriate solution, and the existence extremal solution of the problem is also considered.

A Ca2+-dependent synaptic vesicle-recycling pathway emanating from the plasma membrane adjacent to the dense body at the active zone has been demonstrated by blocking pinch-off of recycling membrane by using the Drosophila mutant, shibire. Exposure of wild-type Drosophila synapses to low Ca2+/high Mg2+ saline is shown here to block this active zone recycling pathway at the stage in which invagi...

Abstract The present study aimed at evaluating aquifer flow unit of Edem by means stratigraphic modified Lorenz plot (SMLP) employing vertical electrical sounding. results from the sounding field data analysis shows that resistivity and thickness layer ranges 34.8 to 67561.2 Ωm 29.7 147.6 m respectively having an average value 70.248 m. Aquifer permeability fractional porosity range 1.5942 1657...
