Dynamical regimes of two pulse coupled non-identical Belousov-Zhabotinsky oscillators have been studied experimentally as well as theoretically with the aid of ordinary differential equations and phase response curves both for pure inhibitory and pure excitatory coupling. Time delay τ between a spike in one oscillator and perturbing pulse in the other oscillator plays a significant role for the phase relations of synchronous regimes of the 1:1 and 1:2 resonances. Birhythmicity between anti-phase and in-phase oscillations for inhibitory pulse coupling as well as between 1:2 and 1:1 resonances for excitatory pulse coupling have also been found. Depending on the ratio of native periods of oscillations T2/T1, coupling strength, and time delay τ, such resonances as 1:1 (with different phase locking), 2:3, 1:2, 2:5, 1:3, 1:4, as well as complex oscillations and oscillatory death are observed.

(1) Background: Ultra-high dose rate (UHDR) radiation therapy needs a reliable dosimetry solution and scintillation detectors are promising candidates. In this study, we characterized an inorganic powder-based scintillation detector under a 9 MeV UHDR electron beam. (2) Methods: A mixture of ZnS:Ag powder and optic glue was coupled to an 8 m Eska GH-4001-P polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) optical fiber.

Fixed-point thickness measurement is commonly used in corrosion detection within petrochemical enterprises, but it suffers from low detection efficiency for localized thinning, limitations regarding measurement locations, and high equipment costs due to insulation and cooling layers. To address these challenges, this paper introduces a wireless passive ultrasonic thickness measurement technique based on a pulse compression algorithm. The research methodology encompassed the development of mathematical and circuit models for single coil and wireless energy transmission, the proposal of a three-terminal wireless energy mutual coupling system, and the establishment of a finite element model simulating the ultrasonic body wave thickness measurement and wireless energy transmission system.

Phenothiazine-based photosensitizers bear the intrinsic potential to substitute various expensive organometallic dyes owing to the strong electron-donating nature of the former. If coupled with a strong acceptor unit and the length of N-alkyl chain is appropriately chosen, they can easily produce high efficiency levels in dye-sensitized solar cells. Here, three novel D-A dyes containing 1H-tetrazole-5-acrylic acid as an acceptor were synthesized by varying the N-alkyl chain length at its phenothiazine core and were exploited in dye-sensitized solar cells.

Biological signals such as respiration (RSP) and heart rate (HR) are oscillatory and physiologically coupled, maintaining homeostasis through regulatory mechanisms. This report models the dynamic relationship between RSP and HR in 45 healthy volunteers at rest. Cross-correlation between RSP and HR was computed, along with regression analysis to predict HR from RSP and its first-order time derivative in continuous signals.
