Digital Twin for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
This chapter focuses on the context in which patients such as those with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) are placed and what possibilities information and communication technologies (ICTs) offer to keep them in touch with...
Bridging the Gap Between Strategic Environmental Assessment and Planning
Current planning practices in Europe are affected by regulations aiming at environmental protection and risk reduction; however, planners face difficulties in implementing the norms. This chapter discusses the influence of the...
White-Matter Hyperintensity Load and Differences in Resting-State Network Connectivity Based on Mild Cognitive Impairment Subtype.
"Mild cognitive impairment" (MCI) is a diagnosis characterised by deficits in episodic memory (aMCI) or in other non-memory domains (naMCI). Although the definition of subtypes is helpful in clinical classification, it provides...

The opportunity cost of time window violations
This paper studies a variant of the vehicle routing problem with soft time windows (VRPSTW), inspired by real-world distribution problems. In applications, violations of the prescribed delivery time are commonly accepted....

On the growth of nonlocal catenoids

As well known, classical catenoids in R 3 possess logarithmic growth at infinity. In this note we prove that the case of nonlocal minimal surfaces is significantly di¤erent, and indeed all nonlocal catenoids must...

Long-time asymptotics for evolutionary crystal dislocation models

We consider a family of evolution equations that generalize the Peierls-Nabarro model for crystal dislocations. They can be seen as semilinear parabolic reaction-diffusion equations in which the diffusion is regulated by a...

Topological framework for directional amplification in driven-dissipative cavity arrays.
Directional amplification, in which signals are selectively amplified depending on their propagation direction, has attracted much attention as key resource for applications, including quantum information processing. Recently...

Ion Conduction Mechanism as a Fingerprint of Potassium Channels

K+-channels are membrane proteins that regulate the selective conduction of potassium ions across cell membranes. Although the atomic mechanisms of K+ permeation have been extensively investigated, previous work focused on...

Flavonoids and Their Metabolites
The occurrence of atherosclerosis and diabetes is expanding rapidly worldwide. These two metabolic disorders often co-occur, and are part of what is often referred to as the metabolic syndrome. In order to determine future...

Effect of rounded corners on the magnetic properties of pyramidal-shaped shell structures
In recent years, the advance of novel chemical growth techniques has led to the fabrication of complex, three-dimensional magnetic nanostructures. The corners and edges of such realistic geometries are generally not sharp but...

Primordial features from linear to nonlinear scales
Sharp features in the primordial power spectrum are a powerful window into the inflationary epoch. To date, the cosmic microwave background (CMB) has offered the most sensitive avenue to search for these signatures. In this...

Matter-Wave Diffraction from a Quasicrystalline Optical Lattice.
Quasicrystals are long-range ordered and yet nonperiodic. This interplay results in a wealth of intriguing physical phenomena, such as the inheritance of topological properties from higher dimensions, and the presence of...

The N-terminal Acetylation of α-Synuclein Changes the Affinity for Lipid Membranes but not the Structural Properties of the Bound State.
The aggregation of α-synuclein (αS), a protein abundant at presynaptic terminals, is associated with a range of highly debilitating neurodegenerative conditions, including Parkinson's disease (PD), dementia with Lewy bodies...

Mechanical Sensing in Embodied Agents
Abstract Sensors enable autonomous systems to obtain information about their internal states and the environment for guiding their actions. It is as essential for these sensors to...
