Chimeras occur in networks of coupled oscillators and are characterized by the coexistence of synchronous and asynchronous groups of oscillators in different parts of the network. We consider a network of nonlocally coupled phase oscillators on an annular domain. The Ott/Antonsen ansatz is used to derive a continuum level description of the oscillators' expected dynamics in terms of a complex-valued order parameter. The equations for this order parameter are numerically analyzed in order to investigate solutions with the same symmetry as the domain and chimeras which are analogous to the "multi-headed" chimeras observed on one-dimensional domains. Such solutions are stable only for domains with widths that are neither too large nor too small. We also study rotating waves with different winding numbers, which are similar to spiral wave chimeras seen in two-dimensional domains. We determine ranges of parameters, such as the size of the domain for which such solutions exist and are stable, and the bifurcations by which they lose stability. All of these bifurcations appear subcritical.

Under the theory of sequential design, compound optimal design with two optimality criteria can be used to solve the problem of efficient calibration of item parameters of item response theory model. In order to efficiently calibrate item parameters in computerized testing, a compound optimal design is proposed for the simultaneous estimation of item difficulty and discrimination parameters under the two-parameter logistic model, which adaptively focuses on optimizing the parameter which is difficult to estimate. The compound optimal design using the acceptance probability can provide ability design points to optimize the item difficulty and discrimination parameters, respectively.

A backtracking heuristic algorithm (BHA) was proposed for a two-dimensional rectangular strip packing problem with rotations and without guillotine cutting, which has many applications. An improved fitness strategy was used to select the fittest rectangle to be packed on a strip with a certain height. Next, a backtracking constructive heuristic was repeatedly used at a higher height until all the rectangles were packed.

Load frequency control (LFC) systems in power grids face challenges in maintaining stability while managing computational complexity. This research presents an optimized approach combining model order reduction techniques with Teaching Learning-Based Optimization (TLBO) for PID controller tuning in single-area LFC systems. Three reduction methods-Routh Approximation, Balanced Truncation, and Hankel Norm Approximation-were implemented to reduce system order from 4th to 2nd order, achieving a 47.

The neuromuscular junction shows several degenerative changes with aging, resulting in a reduction of transmission efficacy. These changes, paired with low-grade chronic inflammation, were considered triggers of the aging muscle processes. The main objective of this study is to assess the role of leukocyte count-derived ratios, nerve conduction velocity (NCV), and compound muscle action potential (CMAP) in determining time-dependent reduction in lower limb muscle explosive strength, a condition that has been defined as powerpenia.
