The conventional PI-based speed controllers are susceptible to speed tracking error and limited load rejection capability. This paper presents the high-performance fractional-order PI speed controller (FOPI) for field oriented control of induction motor (FOC-IM) drives with enhanced disturbance rejection capability. The design of FOPI involves third-order voltage source inverter fed induction motor (VSI-IM) model identification, fitting it into the required phase margin and gain margin constraints and Oustaloups fractional element approximation. The identification algorithm using the hardware-in-loop system is provided. The non-linear integer order VSI-IM model improves the tracking and dynamic performance of the drive. The designed FOPI speed controller performance is compared with the literature's existing FOPI controller design methods. The experimental analysis found that, in terms of speed tracking, parameter variations, inertia variations, and disturbance rejection capabilities, the suggested controller is more effective and resilient than existing tuning approaches.

Background: Sarcopenia is a common condition in the elderly, especially in diabetics (DM). Metformin (MTF), known to reduce glucose levels, can also be a therapeutic intervention in age-related diseases, although it may contribute to muscle loss.
Objectives: To compare the prevalence of sarcopenia among elderly people treated for DM, with or without MTF, and non-diabetic patients (NDM) and evaluate whether there is an association between the use of MTF and the development of sarcopenia.

Invading blood cells, extracellular tissue, and soluble mediators all play important roles in the wound-healing process. There is a substantial global burden of disease and mortality attributable to skin defects that do not heal. About 1% to 2% of the population in industrialized nations suffers from chronic wounds that don't heal, despite healthcare breakthroughs; this condition is very costly, costing about $25 billion each year in the US alone.

Background: This study investigated the effect of sulfur nutrition, basalt rock aggregate (BA) application, with a carbon capture function, and speed breeding under light-emitting diode (LED) light, on the nutritional profile of potatoes and acrylamide formation in crisp production.
Results: Taurus potatoes grown with sulfur showed reduced glucose, sucrose, and total amino acids, and increased asparagine. No difference in acrylamide content was observed in crisps from Taurus and Lady Claire cultivars, with either sulfur or BA application.

Observation of plant root morphology in soil is of fundamental importance in plant research, but the lack of transparency of the soil hampers direct observation of roots. One of the approaches to overcome this technical limitation is the use of "transparent soil" (TS), hydrogel-based beads produced by spherification of gelling agents. However, the production of TS by natural dripping of gelling solution can be labor intensive, time consuming and difficult to maintain consistent product quality.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic in Malawi exacerbated, existing public health challenges including access to HIV treatment and care services. "Life Mapping," a component of the Citizen Science community-led project in Malawi, documented the lived experiences and perspectives of people living with HIV in the context of COVID-19.
Methods: Citizen Science Life Maps is a three-year qualitative, longitudinal project utilizing collaborative and participatory research methods through digital storytelling to document peoples' daily lives.
