hypothalamic hamartoma (hh) is a rare intracranial lesion that usually presents with classic triad of central precocious puberty, gelastic epilepsy, and developmental delay. herein, a 14-year old boy is presented in whom the diagnosis of hh was made by magnetic resonance imaging. while he did not have any complain of precocious puberty, he surprisingly suffered from delay in puberty. the defini...

This paper investigates the problem of decentralized model reference adaptive control (MRAC) for a class of large scale systems with time varying delays in interconnected terms and state and input delays. The upper bounds of the interconnection terms are considered to be unknown. Time varying delays in the nonlinear interconnection terms are bounded and nonnegative continuous functions and thei...

in today’s business transactions, it is frequently observed that a customer is allowed some grace period (permissible delay in payment) before settling the account with the supplier or producer. this policy is advantageous both for the supplier and customer since supplier attracts more customers and customer does not have to pay any interest during this fixed period either. in this paper, the r...

introduction: pulmonary tuberculosis is major problem worldwide and it is estimated one third the world population are already infected and each year 9 million people develop full blown tuberculosis of these 3 million die of the disease, annually. delay in diagnosis and treatment are major problems that play a significant role in all aspect of the disease from patient treatment to transmission ...

In this article, an observer with delay-dependent stability conditions has been presented for time delay systems with unknown inputs, where the time delay terms exist in the state and output of the system. The designing of this observer, whose performance index is the H2 norm, has been formulated as a nonlinear optimization problem. By using the finite characterization of a Lyapunov functional ...
