In order to accurately investigate the disturbance of complex distributed mass loading on surface acoustic wave (SAW) propagation characteristics, two-dimensional coupling-of-modes (2-D COM) theory and finite element method (FEM) were used to simulate the responses of SAW sensors. By using the PDE mode of FEM software, four SAW resonators with the loads in different distribution patterns were modeled. Also, we fabricated and measured a series of SAW resonators accordingly. The results showed that the 2-D COM theory combined with the finite element method was able to simulate the transverse modes of the device and the disturbance of the mass loading on the transverse mode effectively, making the simulation more accurate.

This paper investigates a consensus problem for a class of T-S fuzzy multiple-agent systems (MASs) with unknown input (UI). To begin with, an unknown input observer (UIO) is able to asymptotically estimate the system state and the UI is designed for each agent. In order to construct the UIO, the state interval estimation is obtained by first using zonotope theory.

: Cannabidiol (CBD) is an approved treatment for childhood epilepsies and a candidate treatment for several other CNS disorders. However, it has poor oral bioavailability. We investigated the effect of a novel lipid formulation on its absorption in humans and on its tissue distribution in mice.

Gabapentin has variable pharmacokinetics (PK), which contributes to difficulty in dosing and increased risk of adverse events. The objective of this study was to leverage gabapentin concentrations from therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) to develop a population PK (popPK) model and characterize significant covariates that impact gabapentin PK. Data were retrospectively collected from 82 hospitalized adult patients with TDM gabapentin concentrations.

β-ketoacyl-CoA synthase (KCS) enzymes play a pivotal role in plants by catalyzing the first step of very long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA) biosynthesis. This process is crucial for plant development and stress responses. However, the understanding of genes in maize remains limited.
