PURPOSE To demonstrate the antimicrobial properties of riboflavin/UVA (365 nm) against common pathogens. METHODS One group of bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PA], Staphylococcus aureus [SA], and Staphylococcus epidermidis [SE]) was tested by using Kirby-Bauer discs with (1) empty disc (Control - C); (2) riboflavin 0.1% (B2); (3) riboflavin 0.1% previously activated by UVA (B2'); (4) UVA alo...

The characterization of a stochastic process from its single random realization is a challenging problem for most single-particle tracking techniques which survey an individual trajectory of a tracer in a complex or viscoelastic medium. We consider two quadratic functionals of the trajectory: the time-averaged mean-square displacement (MSD) and the time-averaged squared root mean-square displac...

Program Keluarga Harapan (PKH) adalah program pemberian bantuan sosial bersyarat kepada keluarga miskin dan rentan terdaftar dalam Data Terpadu Kesejahteraan Sosial (DTKS) ditetapkan sebagai Penerima Manfaat (KPM). Tujuan penelitian ini untuk meramalkan rata-rata jumlah PKM PKH periode 2021. Hal dapat dijadikan dasar bagi instansi pemerintah terkait perencanaan kedepannya. Untuk mendapatkan per...

Let a smooth family of Riemannian metrics g(τ) satisfy the backwards Ricci flow equation on a compact oriented n-dimensional manifold M . Suppose two families of normalized n-forms ω(τ) ≥ 0 and ω̃(τ) ≥ 0 satisfy the forwards (in τ) heat equation on M generated by the connection Laplacian ∆g(τ). If these n-forms represent two evolving distributions of particles over M , the minimum root-mean-squa...

Subdiffusive motion of tracer particles in complex crowded environments, such as biological cells, has been shown to be widespread. This deviation from Brownian motion is usually characterized by a sublinear time dependence of the mean square displacement (MSD). However, subdiffusive behavior can stem from different microscopic scenarios that cannot be identified solely by the MSD data. In this...

The zero attraction affine projection algorithm (ZA-APA) achieves better performance in terms of convergence rate and steady state error than standard APA when the system is sparse. It uses l1 norm penalty to exploit sparsity channel. ZA-APA depends on value attractor controller. Moreover a fixed controller not suitable for varying environment. This paper proposes an optimal adaptive based Mean...

In this work a new systematic and generalized strategy to solve the MIMO plantwide control problem is proposed. The methodology called Minimum Square Deviation (MSD) considers several points such as the optimal sensor location (OSL) based on the sum of square deviation (SSD) and the control structure selection (CSS) based on net load evaluation (NLE) problems simultaneously. Particularly, this ...

The evaluation of multisegment coordination is important in gaining a better understanding of the gait and physical activities in humans. Therefore, this study aims to verify whether the use of knee sleeves affects the coordination of lower-limb segments during level walking and one-leg hopping. Eleven healthy male adults participated in this study. They were asked to walk 10 m on a level groun...
