In opposition, industrial practice gives frequent examples of their existence and their mostly negative impacts on the control quality. The origin of outliers is never fully known. Some of them are generated externally to the process (exogenous), like for instance erroneous observations, data corrupted by control systems or the effect of human intervention. Such outliers appear occasionally with some unknow probability shifting real value often to some strange and nonsense value. They are frequently called deviants, anomalies or contaminants . In most cases we are interested in their detection and removal. English | 2022 | ISBN: 1685074995, 978-1685074999 | 310 pages | True PDF | 7.41 MB Osteogenesis Imperfecta should be recognized as one of the most studied skeletal systemic dysplasias. Considering recent improvements of technology, the diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for this pathology might evolve in the future. This volume presents a collection of chapters covering a wide range of problems related to this condition. Three chapters of the book are dedicated to the modern and revised data on the molecular genetic aspects of the classification and pathogenesis of osteogenesis imperfecta. Detailed descriptions of somatic issues are presented for all body systems. Principles and results of bisphosphonate therapy and other methods of medical management are described by leading Russian specialists in this field. The most significant experience in Russia of medical treatment and physical therapy will arouse the interest of readers. The surgical part of the book is presented not only with a description of principles, methods and results of surgical interventions on the limbs, but also on the axial skeleton. Furthermore, two chapters are dedicated to the anesthetic aspects of orthopedic surgery in children with osteogenesis imperfecta. The substantiation is given to the methods of combined anesthesia and pain management during the surgery, as well as in the immediate postoperative period, taking into account comorbidities. Telescopic rodding of long bones is a recognized gold standard in children with the disease, but there are multiple disadvantages of this approach. In the book we report new methods, combined techniques and technical tricks allowing to overcome inconveniencies and flaws of common steel telescopic intramedullary rods. At the end of the book, we discuss outcomes of complex management and the issue of patients' quality of life after treatment performed by a multidisciplinary team. The high level of quality of life of patients is the prime and principle goal of our team. The data presented in this book are based, on one hand, on the personal, practical, and scientific experience of each author, and on the other hand, the entire team of authors works in collaboration with each other, coordinating their decisions and interventions with colleagues, thus ensuring continuity in treatment of children and adults suffering from Osteogenesis Imperfecta.

Optimization problems where the dynamics evolve according to a system of PDEs arise in science, engineering, and economic applications and they can take the form of inverse problems, optimal control problems or optimal design problems. This book covers new theoretical, computational as well as implementation aspects for PDE-constrained optimization problems under uncertainty, in shape optimization, and in feedback control, and it illustrates the new developments on representative problems from a variety of applications. English | 2022 | ISBN: 1685077226, 978-1685077228 | 272 pages | True PDF | 28.72 MB As with many new technologies, the comprehensive information related to omics is lacking. In this book, we have summarized information about how omics-based approaches are causing paradigm shifts in various research areas of biological sciences. The book contains 11 chapters that cover all major aspects of omics-related research methods. The book begins with an overview of the omics before moving on to contemporary omics approaches and their applications in various research areas such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, toxicogenomics, metabolomics, and nutrigenomics, etc. We also discuss how these new technologies are causing paradigm shifts in research related to animal sciences and human disease research. This resource provides a comprehensive overview of the present state of integrated omics research and medicine, with topics ranging from nutrition and animal traits improvement to human diseases such as cancer. The book brings together recent advancements in the omics field to create a cutting-edge framework for this discipline. Providing a complete perspective, we also highlight obstacles that are hindering the broader implementation of these omics technologies. We allow the reader to become acquainted with research trends in omics and an understanding of the quality controls and filtering of high throughput sequencing data in omics as well as implementation of omics in various research areas of biology.

This book is suitable as a textbook at the graduate or advanced undergraduate level and will appeal to postgraduate-level students and young researchers in different fields. This book provides technological advancement in nonlinear dynamics and chaos and explores the fields of communication, electric vehicles, power systems and rotational machines with centrifugal flyball governor system. An autonomous chaotic system is explored with real and complex state variables; their projective synchronisation is reported with application to secure communication. Secure communication is achieved using Masking-Modulation and Diffie-Hellman Key Exchange encryption techniques. Further, electric vehicles are the necessity of upcoming trends. To optimize the control performance of the permanent-magnet synchronous motor with different disturbances and uncertainties, a nonlinear control for the permanent-magnet synchronous motor using sliding-mode control is reported and Cascaded PI sliding mode control technique is explored to control the chaotic behaviour in electric vehicles. Chaos behaviour is explored in power systems and its control is presented using higher order sliding mode control. Comparative performances are analysed followed by control of chaos in the Rotational Machine with Centrifugal Flyball Governor system where chaos is controlled using recursive backstepping sliding mode control. All the simulations are carried out in the MATLAB environment and reveal successful achievement of the objectives. Researchers from academia and industry, who are working in the research areas Nonlinear Dynamical Systems & Chaos, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science Engineering, Information Technology, Communication Engineering and Mechanical Engineering may be principal audiences. Also, the book will be helpful for (i) graduate or advanced undergraduate level students as a textbook or major reference book for courses such as electrical circuits, nonlinear dynamical systems, mathematical modelling, computational science, numerical simulation, and many others and (ii) postgraduate level students and young researchers in the following fields: Communication Engineering; Computer Science; Electrical and Electronic Engineering; Mechanical Engineering; Engineering Mathematics; Computational Physics.
English | 2022 | ISBN: 1685076939, 978-1685076931 | 408 pages | True PDF | 11.26 MB There is an important increase in the use of devices that allow adequate control of patients who are treated in resuscitation units after surgical procedures. In this book a description is made. We carried out a description and analysis of the main indications for use in different scenarios. This includes an analysis of the rationale for the use of noninvasive ventilation in anesthesiology and perioperative medicine, noninvasive mechanical ventilation and work of breathing pattern using different interfaces, and perioperative medicine. We include equipment and interface analysis and application of lung ultrasound in noninvasive ventilation. Along these lines, we clarify the role of noninvasive ventilation in anesthesiology and perioperative noninvasive ventilation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), preoxygenation in cardiac and liver transplants and anesthesiology procedures (non-intubated video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery). Finally, we conclude this book with key recommendations about noninvasive ventilation in the post-anesthesia care unit of a health care organization. We believe that this book consolidates a scientific reference for the adequate indication of noninvasive ventilation in anesthesiology and perioperative medicine. |
