The recent advances in research on physics, computing, medicine and others, require the use of certain shape characterization parameters, especially for morphological analysis. The most known morphometric characteristics are: the perimeter, the diameter, the circularity, the tortuosity, the compactness factor and others. In this paper we propose a new parallel algorithm for the diameter determi...

Introduction: There are 11.8 million HIV infected youth worldwide African youth face growing rates of infection with HIV/AIDS and STI. In this region most new HIV infection occur among people ages 15-24 and are sexually acquired .The highest prevalence of HIV is seen in the group of 15-24 years.

Biodegradation of carbon-based nanomaterials (CBNs) has been pursued extensively in the past few years biomedical research. However, a major drawback to progress is that biomolecular corona (BMC) effects on CBN biodegradation have omitted from large number studies. In article 2105649, Mehdi Mehrali and co-workers discuss importance BMC its possible impacts CBNs.

Model uncertainty limits the utilization of Model Predictive Controllers (MPC) to minimize building energy consumption. We propose a new Robust Model Predictive Control (RMPC) structure to make a building controller robust to model uncertainty. The results from RMPC are compared with those from a nominal MPC and a common building Rule Based Control (RBC). The results are then used to develop a ...
