Vehicle State Estimation by Integrating the Recursive Least Squares Method with a Variable Forgetting Factor with an Adaptive Iterative Extended Kalman Filter
Authors: Chen Yong , Huang Yanmin , Song Zeyu
Published: September 2024

The sideslip angle and the yaw rate are the key state parameters for vehicle handling and stability control. To improve the accuracy of the input parameters and the time-varying characteristics of noise covariance in state estimation, a combined method of recursive least squares with a variable forgetting factor and adaptive iterative extended Kalman filtering is proposed for estimation. Based on the established three-degrees-of-freedom nonlinear model of the vehicle, the variable forgetting factor recursive least squares method is used to identify the tire cornering stiffness and serves as an input for vehicle state estimation. An innovative algorithm is used to optimise the uncertain noise covariance in the iterative extended Kalman filter (IEKF) process. Finally, with the help of the joint simulation of CarSim2019 and Matlab/Simulink R2022a, a distributed drive electric vehicle state parameter estimation model is established, and a simulation analysis of typical working conditions is carried out. Furthermore, an experiment is conducted with the pix moving vehicle and the integrated navigation system. The simulation and experimental results show that, compared to the traditional extended Kalman filter algorithm, the proposed algorithm improves the estimation accuracy of the yaw rate, sideslip angle, and longitudinal speed by 58.17%, 57.2%, and 76.47%, respectively, which shows that the algorithm has a higher estimation accuracy and a stronger applicability to provide accurate state information for vehicle handling and stability control.

O manejo de pacientes masculinos que requerem avaliação pós-implantação do esfíncter urinário artificial (EUA) AMS 800 por suspeita de complicações advindas do procedimento continua sendo um desafio urológico, aumentando a necessidade de obtenção do máximo de informações anatômicas dos pacientes. Essa afirmativa é válida tanto para o pré quanto para o pós-operatório. Para compensar as limitações da uretrografia anterógrada e retrógrada na análise desses pacientes, a uretrorressonância nuclear magnética surge como uma modalidade não invasiva, multiplanar e de alta resolução para avaliação da uretra e do EUA AMS 800 após sua implantação. A partir de um estudo retrospectivo de uma série de exames de imagem de pacientes com incontinência urinária que foram tratados com a implantação do dispositivo, apresentando a suspeita de complicações pós-operatórias, foi possível avaliar a aplicabilidade da uretrorressonância nessas situações. Dessa forma, confirmou-se que a ressonância magnética pode fornecer informações detalhadas da anatomia da região estudada, permitindo aos médicos antecipar as técnicas auxiliares necessárias para a realização da intervenção e ainda prever resultados funcionais relacionados principalmente à correção da incontinência urinária (IU). Entende-se, portanto, que o método é bastante útil para ser escolhido como primeira e única forma de avaliação e manejo desses pacientes.

Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) stands out for its biocompatibility, tunability, and functionality, being often selected as a scaffolding material. However, the biological modulations induced by its photocrosslinking process on mesenchymal stem cells as well as stress mitigation measures remain insufficiently explored. By using GelMA of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) grade, this study aimed (a) to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the biological effects of photocrosslinking process with a specific focus on oxidative stress and (b) to develop a strategy to mitigate the adverse effects by employing conditioned medium (CM) by dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs). Following photocrosslinking, pathways related to oxidative phosphorylation and DNA repair were enriched in the presence of DPSC-CM carrying various antioxidants such as peroxiredoxin (PRDX) 1–6 and superoxide dismutase type 1 (SOD1), while the control samples exhibited enrichment in inflammatory signaling pathways. Incorporating DPSC-CM into the hydrogel notably reduced the degree of cellular oxidation caused by photocrosslinking and stress responses, resulting in improved cell viability, growth, motility, and osteogenic differentiation, as well as fewer apoptotic and senescent cells compared to those without DPSC-CM. The deteriorated biocompatibility of freshly crosslinked GelMA hydrogel was confirmed by the disrupted vasculature of chorioallantoic membranes in chicken embryos after implantation, which was prevented by DPSC-CM. In conclusion, this study demonstrates the robust antioxidative effects of DPSC-CM, mitigating the negative effect of GelMA photocrosslinking processes.

Published: September 2024

Femtosecond laser filamentation has recently emerged as a promising technique to actively create a channel through clouds and fog, thereby providing a revolutionary opportunity to overcome the obstacle of fog-induced attenuation for free-space optical communication (FSOC) in atmosphere. However, the underlying physics remains elusive, which is critical for optimizing time window and efficiency of guiding light in this channel. In this work, the time evolution of the filament-induced channel is investigated under various laser pulse energies and repetition rates. The combined diffusion model is built to reveal the contributions of gas molecules and aerosol droplets in competition of guiding and defocusing effect of the filament-induced channel. The related findings can deepen our understanding on the underlying physics of the air channel induced by the filament, provide insight into the optimizing time window and efficiency of guiding light, and potentially contribute to the improvement of filament-assisted FSOC.

Для прогнозування динаміки інфекційного захворювання розроблено широкий спектр різноманітних математичних моделей. Як правило, такі моделі не враховують просторові ефекти, пов’язані з нерівномірністю конвекційного перенесення діючих чинників лімфатичною рідиною, зокрема, у внутрішньому середовищі периферійних імунологічних органів. Запропоновано підхід для урахування ефектів нерівномірної конвекції при моделюванні процесів інфекційних захворювань в умовах дифузійних збурень та зосереджених впливів. На основі зведення вихідної модельної сингулярно збуреної задачі із запізненням до послідовності задач без запізнення синтезовано ефективну покрокову процедуру чисельно-асимптотичного наближення розвʼязку як збурення розв’язків відповідних вироджених задач. Для знаходження поля швидкості запропоновано моделювати рух рідини у середовищі імунологічного органа як потенціальну течію у системі джерело–стік. Представлено результати компʼютерного моделювання, які ілюструють особливості впливу конвекції та дифузійного розсіювання на розвиток вірусної інфекції у внутрішньому середовищі імунологічного органа. Модель для умов нерівномірного поля швидкості руху лімфатичної рідини в імунологічному органі забезпечує можливість враховувати наявність зон з різною інтенсивністю знешкодження вірусних елементів. Внаслідок цього можливе виникнення окремих зон, де сила імунної реакції буде недостатньою для знешкодження наявних у них антигенів, що з часом зумовить появу тут нових епіцентрів зараження. Підкреслено, що наявність інструментів для прогнозування динаміки вірусної інфекції з урахуванням нерівномірної конвекції, дифузійних збурень та зосереджених лікувальних впливів у середовищах типу периферійних імунологічних органів важлива при розробці раціональних програм лікування з використанням спеціалізованих експертних систем прийняття рішень.

Published: August 2024

Halal certification is a series of processes that must be fulfilled by slaughterhouses. The aim is to provide comfort, security, safety and certainty of the availability of halal meat for the community, as well as increasing added value for business actors to produce and sell halal meat products. This research examines the provisions regarding halal certification rules for slaughterhouses in Indonesia, the halal certification mechanism and the consequences for slaughterhouses that are not halal certified. The research method used is the normative juridical method, namely research that focuses on legal norms contained in statutory regulations. The research results show that the provisions for halal certification for slaughterhouses in Indonesia are regulated in Law Number 33 of 2014 concerning Halal Product Guarantees, Law Number 6 of 2023 concerning Determination of Government Regulations in Lieu of Law Number 2 of 2022 concerning Job Creation, Government Regulation Number 39 of 2021 concerning the Implementation of the Halal Product Guarantee Sector, Decree of the Minister of Religion Number 748 of 2021 concerning Types of Products that must be halal certified, and detailed guidelines are regulated in the Decree of the Head of the Halal Product Guarantee Organizing Agency Number 77 of 2023 concerning Guidelines for Implementing the Product Guarantee System Halal in Slaughtering Ruminants and Poultry. The halal certification mechanism consists of the manager or business operator of the slaughterhouse registering and attaching the required documents; BPJPH will examine the requirements that have been attached; Next, an audit and inspection of the product will be carried out, submitting the inspection results to the MUI for a fatwa to be issued; and issue a halal certificate if it passes the audit. The consequences for slaughterhouses that do not implement halal product guarantees are that they will receive administrative sanctions in the form of reprimands, written warnings and revocation of halal certificates for those who already have halal certificates. The author suggests that these consequences be added in the form of slaughterhouses that do not have a halal certificate not being allowed to operate and slaughtered meat being prohibited from circulating.

The lexicon of a language is a crucial part of its linguistic structure. If students lack a thorough comprehension of vocabulary, their proficiency in English will be adversely affected. However, students should prioritise improving their ability to regulate and use words. This study aimed to determine if there is a distinction in vocabulary proficiency among seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 7 Tarakan when taught using audio textbooks as a learning medium compared to traditional media. The research findings indicate that students who received instruction using audio textbooks had a significant disparity in their vocabulary proficiency compared to those taught using conventional textbooks. Consequently, listening to audiobooks might prove advantageous for students in enhancing their language proficiency. Teachers at SMP Negeri 7 Tarakan and other schools are contemplating using diverse technological media, such as audio textbooks, to aid pupils in acquiring language skills. This is being undertaken in an attempt to build innovative teaching approaches.Â
Innovative approaches to optimized cutting planning in the garment industry

Published: September 2024

The garment industry is responsible for large amounts of waste. The current line of making the industry sustainable
imposes rethinking of all stages, from design to assembling. The research starts from the observation that the
optimization of the cutting plan is resourceful regarding the reduction of waste. The paper proposes an original software
dedicated to the planning of cutting. The markers for a given product, onto which are arranged one to four sizes are
characterized by four parameters: coefficient of utility of fabric, total length of the fabric, number of layers and length of
the marker. The use of the software is demonstrated for the product coat, to which the best marker is established.
Numerical results show how variable the coefficient of utility can be, thus how important is the optimization of markers
before cutting the fabric. For the product coat, whose patterns are long (the dimension along the length of the fabric is
significantly bigger than the dimension along the width) the utility coefficient is optimized from 57% to 78%. Several
observations (applying to all markers) are noticed regarding the shape of the patterns and the number of sizes on a
marker. The software should be of interest to companies which assemble garment pieces. The mathematical model and
logic applied within the software are validated using an experimental study on the product's dress and coat, to which the
practical coefficients of utility are 75% and 87% respectively.

Lenguaje, cultura y migración

Published: September 2024

La presente tesis se enmarca dentro de los estudios de la variación morfosintáctica focalizada en la variedad que surge del contacto sociocultural, y por ende lingüístico, entre el español andino de reconocida influencia quechua y el español rioplatense, como resultado de los movimientos migratorios de miembros de la comunidad boliviana que decidieron afincarse en la ciudad de La Plata. En este contexto, el funcionamiento de las lenguas y/o variedades de las lenguas en situación de contacto revela cómo están conformadas esas variedades, tal como afirma García (1995): Pero justamente porque en el uso sintáctico no se revela de inmediato qué procede de la gramática de la propia lengua, y qué se debe a posible interferencia de otra lengua, se abre la perspectiva de que el contacto de una lengua con otra y/o –lo que es aún más interesante– el contacto entre dos culturas pueda (paradójicamente) rastrearse en el uso. (p. 52)La situación propuesta a partir de las investigaciones de los estudios del contacto de lenguas en situaciones de diversidad sociocultural nos lleva a formularnos y (re)plantearnos algunas preguntas acerca de la problemática: ¿qué rol juega la cultura en los procesos migratorios, y por lo tanto en la comunicación, en el uso? ¿Qué papel cumple en el uso el factor humano? ¿Juega el factor humano algún rol determinante en la lengua y/o variedades involucradas en los procesos migratorios? En palabras de Martínez (2015), “¿juega la cultura algún rol en la conformación de la gramática?”, ¿desde dónde pensar la relación entre lingüística y migración?, ¿podemos pensar en una lingüística de la migración en los términos propuestos por Zimmermann y Mortgenhaler García (2007, p. 7)?

This article underscores a history of economic relations between Kenya and Uganda from 1962 to 2024. This is due to the fact that Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Sudan, Zaire, Somalia, Burundi, and Ethiopia are the most important business partners for Kenyan exports. The article reviews various literatures and a major gap has been identified. Theoretically, it adopts a bureaucratic theory, as was propounded by Max Weber in 1921. Methodologically, the article embraces a historical research design, as it helps in evaluating and relating the past occurrences in order to establish the causes, effects or trends of those occurrences with the aim of utilising the data to understand and explain the past, present and future anticipated events. In its findings, four eras of Kenya presidents are discussed. These includes: Jomo Kenyatta era, Daniel Arap Moi era, Mwai Kibaki era and finally Uhuru Kenyatta era. Based on the aforementioned eras, the article found out that; first the promise of democracy, a good life, and freedom was punctuated throughout the pronouncements that marked the formative years of the Kenyatta state. Secondly, this article discovered that, in 1990, when Moi was in power, the rhetoric of the KANU party suggested that African traditions were particularly well-suited to a one-party democracy environment. One of the traditions that were mentioned was the practice of making decisions through consensus rather than through competition. Lastly, during Kibaki era, Informal trade thrived due to bureaucratic hurdles and corruption at border points between Uganda and Kenya. In Conclusion, the rise of informal cross-border trade, particularly during times of political instability, has significantly influenced economic interactions between the two countries.

For humans and other living things, water is a chemical compound that is essential to existence and cannot be substituted by any other substance. Some regions continue to struggle with access to clean water. Even in communities that rely on wells for their water supply, issues with the water's quality can occasionally arise. Water that is not yet fit for use, particularly for drinking, must first be treated using different kinds of filtering process media to make it fit for consumption. Using zeolite filter media, activated charcoal, and silica sand with contact time variations of 0 minutes, 20 minutes, 40 minutes, and 60 minutes, the aim of this study was to ascertain the decrease in iron (Fe) levels. Descriptive statistical tests were subsequently used to process and interpret data from study findings and laboratory examinations. The study's findings suggest that using filter media in the filtering process can raise the physical and chemical characteristics of water quality to meet health standards.

This study explores the cultural representation of traditional Hausa foods within the compositions of Makaɗa Sa’idu Faru, a renowned Hausa royal singer. The research aims to highlight how these songs portray dietary habits and culinary preferences, offering insights into the socio-cultural significance of food in Hausa society. The methodology employed a qualitative approach integrating document analysis of Hausa oral songs and semi-structured interviews with experts in Hausa culture and oral literature. Primary data included a selection of oral songs meticulously analyzed for thematic content related to traditional foods like fura da nono (millet dumpling and sour milk), honey, garin kwaki (cassava flour), and kunu (pap). Interviews with cultural scholars provided additional perspectives on the symbolic meanings and social contexts associated with these food references. Findings reveal that Makaɗa Sa’idu Faru’s compositions not only praise traditional rulers but also vividly depict the significance of specific foods in Hausa culture. The study contributes to a deeper understanding of Hausa cultural identity through its culinary traditions as documented in oral songs, emphasizing the importance of literature as a mirror of cultural expression and continuity.

Por definição, a hérnia de disco (HD) se trata da extrusão do conteúdo do disco intervertebral e é uma das doenças degenerativas mais comuns da coluna. Entende-se que ocorre uma ruptura do anel fibroso, resultando no deslocamento do conteúdo localizado nos discos do espaço intervertebral.  . Nos últimos anos, sabe-se que as repercussões da hérnia de disco tem sido associadas à aposentadoria por incapacidade. Diante da relevância da doença no cenário brasileiro e mundial, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo elucidar o tratamento conservador e cirúrgico da hérnia de disco, apontando suas principais indicações. O estudo foi desenvolvido por meio de uma revisão integrativa da literatura, a partir de buscas realizadas nas bases de dados SciELO, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde e PubMed. Existem dois modelos de tratamento, o conservador, que engloba o uso de medicações e reabilitação, e o cirúrgico. Geralmente, o tratamento de escolha é o conservador, uma vez que estudos apontam o potencial de regressão espontânea das hérnias de disco. Por outro lado, existem indicações absolutas para a recomendação cirúrgica dos casos de HD, como a síndrome da cauda equina ou queixa de paresia moderada ou grave.

Introdução: Perda auditiva é um problema comum que todos vivenciam de tempos em tempos. A audição diminuída também pode ocorrer durante uma infecção de ouvido. Objetivo: discutir a etiologia da perda auditiva em adulto. Metodologia: Revisão de literatura a partir de bases de dados da Scielo, da PubMed e da BVS, de janeiro a abril de 2024, com descritores “Etiology”, “Hearing Loss” e “Adults“. Incluíram-se artigos de 2019-2024 (total 90), com exclusão de outros critérios e escolha de 05 artigos na íntegra. Resultados e Discussão: A perda auditiva é uma deficiência crônica comum, particularmente em adultos mais velhos. Na coorte Beaver Dam nos Estados Unidos, a prevalência de perda auditiva, definida pela audiometria, aumentou de forma constante com a idade. por cento com idades entre 21 e 34 anos; 6 por cento com idades entre 35 e 44 anos; 11 por cento com idades entre 44 e 54 anos; 25 por cento com idades entre 55 e 64 anos; 43 por cento têm entre 65 e 84 anos. Em todo o mundo, as estimativas da Organização Mundial de Saúde indicam que a perda auditiva afeta 538 milhões de pessoas. Todas as causas de perda auditiva do ouvido externo e médio resultam em perda auditiva condutiva; quase todas as causas do ouvido interno resultam em perda auditiva neurossensorial. As causas menos comuns de perda auditiva incluem: Uma doença autoimune (uma doença que pode levar o sistema imunológico do seu corpo a atacar os próprios tecidos); defeitos congênitos; certos medicamentos que lesam os ouvidos como efeitos colaterais; lesões ao ouvido; tumores dentro do ouvido ou em partes do cérebro. Podemos ter ainda, a perda auditiva é frequentemente associada ao avanço da idade, mas isso nem sempre é o caso. Embora possa atingir pessoas de qualquer idade, a condição aparece mais frequentemente após os 65 anos de idade. Conclusão:A perda de audição leve pode ser tratada com aparelhos auditivos para melhorar a qualidade de vida e facilitar a comunicação com outras pessoas. O tratamento pode também ajudar a prevenir a progressão da perda auditiva.

Este artigo visa realizar uma revisão integrativa das abordagens terapêuticas disponíveis para o transtorno de personalidade histriônica., utilizando a base de dados PubMed com os termos "Transtorno da Personalidade Histriônica”, “Tratamento”, "Intervenção Psicológica". Em suma, a revisão das abordagens terapêuticas para o transtorno de personalidade histriônica destaca a eficácia de várias estratégias, com a terapia cognitivo-comportamental e a terapia psicodinâmica surgindo como intervenções principais. A TCC se mostra eficaz na modificação de padrões de pensamento disfuncionais e na promoção de habilidades de regulação emocional, enquanto a terapia psicodinâmica oferece insights profundos sobre os conflitos internos e motivações subjacentes dos pacientes. Além disso, as intervenções baseadas em habilidades sociais e o uso de tratamento farmacológico para sintomas coocorrentes ampliam as opções disponíveis para o manejo do transtorno. A personalização das abordagens terapêuticas, adaptando-as às necessidades e características individuais dos pacientes, é fundamental para otimizar os resultados. A combinação de terapias psicossociais com estratégias farmacológicas, quando apropriado, oferece uma abordagem mais abrangente e eficaz para o tratamento do transtorno de personalidade histriônica. A continuidade da pesquisa e a adaptação das práticas clínicas com base em novas evidências são essenciais para melhorar as intervenções e promover um tratamento mais eficaz e individualizado.

A doença de Parkinson é um distúrbio neurológico progressivo que afeta principalmente o sistema motor e é causado pela degeneração de neurônios dopaminérgicos. Fatores de risco incluem idade avançada, exposição a pesticidas e metais pesados, e histórico familiar. Este artigo analisa a epidemiologia da doença de Parkinson no Brasil entre 2021 e 2023, usando dados do Sistema de Informação sobre Morbidade Hospitalar do SUS (SIH/SUS) para avaliar prevalência e fatores associados. A metodologia adotada foi quantitativa e retrospectiva, com foco em variáveis como região, idade, sexo e etnia, e o uso de análises estatísticas descritivas. Os resultados indicaram um aumento nas internações devido ao Parkinson, especialmente na região Sudeste, que registrou o maior número de casos. A faixa etária predominante foi a de 60 a 69 anos, com uma maior incidência entre homens e indivíduos brancos. A análise ressalta a complexidade da doença, que envolve sintomas motores e não motores, exigindo um manejo multidisciplinar. A alta prevalência no Sudeste foi atribuída à densidade populacional elevada e à melhor infraestrutura de saúde. Enfatiza-se a necessidade de políticas de saúde pública bem informadas e adaptadas para combater a doença de Parkinson no Brasil, destacando a importância de futuras pesquisas para desenvolver tratamentos eficazes e explorar as causas da doença.
