This paper introduces a mathematical model to evaluate fast and cost-effective 3D image sensors based on single photon detectors. The model will help engineers evaluate design parameters based on operating conditions and system performance. Ranging is base ...
Pulsations in the fetal heart propagate through the precordial vein and the ductus venosus but are normally not transmitted into the umbilical vein. Pulsations in the umbilical vein do occur, however, in early pregnancy and in pathological conditions. Such ...
At the offset of a (stochastic) epidemic, it is of importance to have a mathematical model that will assist in the making of an informed judgement on whether the epidemic will explode, or will be minor and die out. In this paper, we consider probabilistic ...
Snow avalanches are rapid, gravity-driven, mass flows involving snow, air, and sometimes debris (logs, stones, etc.). Two idealized types of avalanches are usually considered when one is interested in describing their motion. ...
The oxidn. of nickel gauze catalysts by O2 was investigated by transient response methods. Qual. description of the exptl. transient responses have shown that the oxidn. of metallic nickel proceeds in two stages. The first step is a fast dissocn. of gaseou ...
IEEE 802.11 is currently the most deployed wireless local area networkingstandard. It uses carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) to resolve contention between nodes. Contention windows (CW) change dynamically to adapt to the cont ...
The aim of this work is to set up mathematical models and numerical methods to investigate the mass transfer process occurring during the peritoneal dialysis (PD) therapy. More precisely the final goal is the set up of tools to find for each patient submit ...
A novel adsorber with a structured fixed-bed made of sintered metal fibres (SMF) plates has been developed for purification of low-content VOCs gas-streams. The surface of the metal fibres was coated by a thin, homogeneous MFI-type (ZSM-5, Silicalite-1) ze ...

In this paper we present a mathematical model of the mortality due to different types of cancers. The observed mortality typically increases with age up to 90 years, and then decreases. The decrease in old-age is not considered in the usual models which re ...
