Article Abstract

A stabilization approach for the average consensus of homogeneous multi-agent systems (MASs) entailing non-uniform, asymmetric, and time-varying delays in communication networks is proposed. Agents are modeled using a continuous-time linear dynamical system with a local discrete-time controller. To address communication delays, we propose two logic functions, namely, a packet selection algorithm that constantly selects and updates the latest received control signal packets and a synchronization algorithm that asymmetrically synchronizes these packets to preserve the average value of state variables. Based on the Lyapunov theory, we establish a linear matrix inequality (LMI) condition that sufficiently guarantees the stability and consensus of the overall system. To establish this condition, only the time delay upper bound is required, without any special assumptions on the delay pattern. We thoroughly discuss the proposed algorithm and evaluate its effectiveness via numerical simulations.

Background/objectives: There is current scientific interest pertaining to the therapeutic effects of olive-derived polyphenols (ODPs), in particular their associated anti-inflammatory properties, following the wealth of research surrounding the physiological impact of the Mediterranean Diet (MD). Despite this association, the majority of the current literature investigates ODPs in conjunction with metabolic diseases. There is limited research focusing on ODPs and acute inflammation following exercise, regardless of the knowledge surrounding the elevated inflammatory response during this time.

Introduction: Gait analysis is a vital tool in the assessment of human movement and has been widely used in clinical settings to identify potential abnormalities in individuals. However, there is a lack of consensus on the normative values for gait metrics in large populations. The primary objective of this study is to establish a normative database of spatiotemporal gait metrics across various age groups, contributing to a broader understanding of human gait dynamics.
