Synchronization of Three Dimensional Cancer Model with Chen System using a Robust Adaptive Sliding Mode Controller with application to secure communications Abstract: In this computational study‚ we synchronize the Three Dimensional Cancer Model (TDCM) with Chen System (CS) using a Robust Adaptive Sliding Mode Controller (RASMC) together with uncertainties‚ external disturbances and fully unknown parameters. A simple suitable sliding surface‚ which includes synchronization errors‚ is constructed

Aerobic - There are three significant adaptations associated with the constant performance of aerobic training. Aerobic training usually produces an increase in functional capacities related to oxygen transport and use in the body. Endurance training produces significant increases in maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max). Maximal oxygen consumption is an indicator of the level of cardiovascular ‚ neuromuscular ‚ and pulmonary functions. Cardiovascular adaptations to this type of training are cardiac

The music of the 1940s gave Roy Allen hope that he would make it back to England‚ and eventually home to Philadelphia. When Roy Allen stayed in Colette Florin’s apartment‚ he made crossword puzzles to pass the time.

Songs remind Allen of his mother

Look at Merton’s Modes of Adaptation. Give at least one example of how someone‚ perhaps someone in the criminal justice system‚ uses each mode. Robert K. Merton’s "Social Structure and Anomie" (1938). People adapt in many different ways. Just as part of a river that suddenly finds it‚ self blocked by an obstacle and may split and find a new way to the ocean. Merton outlines five ways in which people adapt to society’s goals and means and they are as follows: 1) Conformity - Adherence to the practices

In addition‚ the whales next adaptation is the way the humpback whale gets its air to breathe. a-z-animals.com states that “The humpback whale has not one but two blow holes‚ which are located on the top of the humpback whale’s head.” Finding food‚ this adaptation helps the humpback survive because it allows them to hold more air and then they barely have to swim up to the top of the water. Just as important‚ the glorious creature’s next adaptation is what keeps the whales warm

Chronic Training Adaptations Exercise or training regularly over an extended period of time (3 times per week for 6-8 weeks) leads to the development of long-term or chronic adaptations to training. Evidence of these adaptations can occur at various stages Once achieved‚ these adaptations are retrained unless training ceases. Upon cessation‚ the body will gradually revert to its pre-training condition (de-training). Unlike acute responses to exercises‚ chronic adaptations to training vary

Introduction In 1973‚ Fischer Black and Myron Scholes first published the Black-Scholes Model in the paper‚ “The Pricing of Options and Corporate Liabilities”‚ published in the Journal of Political Economy. From this model‚ the Black-Scholes option pricing Model (BSM) was deduced as a means to price European options. The simplicity of the use of the BSM allowed traders to effectively price and trade options and derivatives in markets all over the world. It is still widely used today‚ although with
