This paper investigates two formation control problems for a leader-follower network in 3-D. One is called the formation marching control problem, the objective of which is to steer the agents to maintain a target formation shape while moving with the synchronized velocity. The other one is called the formation rotating control problem, whose goal is to drive the agents to rotate around a common axis with a target formation. For the above two problems, we consider directed and switching sensing topologies while the communication is assumed to be bidirectional and switching. We develop approaches utilizing barycentric coordinates toward these two problems. Local control laws and graphical conditions are acquired to ensure global convergence in both scenarios.

Apexification is a crucial procedure for achieving apical healing in non-vital teeth with open apices. Traditionally, calcium hydroxide has been used for this purpose, but it has significant drawbacks, including prolonged treatment duration, increased risk of root fracture, and the potential for porous barrier formation. Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) has emerged as a superior alternative due to its biocompatibility, faster setting time, and better sealing properties.

Introduction: Endometritis is a very common pathology in animals which changes endometrial leukotriene (LT) formation and muscarinic 2 and 3 receptor subtypes (M2R/M3R) and α-7 nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptor (α-7 nAChR) expression patterns. With the relationship between ACh, its receptors and LT production remaining unclear, the role of M2R, M3R and α-7 nAChR in action of ACh on the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO), LTA4 hydrolase (LTAH) and LTC4 synthase (LTCS) protein abundances in the inflamed porcine endometrium and on the tissue secretion of LTB4 and LTC4 were studied.

Catalytic alkene isomerization is a powerful synthetic strategy for preparing valuable internal alkenes from simple feedstocks. The utility of olefin isomerization hinges on the ability to control both positional and stereoisomerism to access a single product among numerous potential isomers. Within base-metal catalysis, relatively little is known about how to modulate reactivity and selectivity with group 6 metal-catalyzed isomerization.
