Aircraft Conflict Resolution
Air traffic management (ATM) represents a domain of challenging applications of mathematical optimization. -
Introduction
Quantum mechanics describes and explains the workings of nature—and is by far the most successful theory of science. Although quantum mechanics has... -
Bounding pandemic spread by heat spread
The beginning of a pandemic is a crucial stage for policymakers. Proper management at this stage can reduce overall health and economical damage....

Sub-epidemic Model Forecasts During the First Wave of the COVID-19 Pandemic in the USA and European Hotspots
Mathematical models have been widely used to understand the dynamics of the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic as well as to... -
Automated Radiotherapy Treatment Planning Optimization: A Comparison Between Robust Optimization and Adaptive Planning
Radiotherapy treatments must guarantee a proper coverage of the volume to treat (Planning Target Volume—PTV) while sparing all the organs at risk... -
Predicting the Last Zero of a Spectrally Negative Lévy Process
Last passage times arise in a number of areas of applied probability, including risk theory and degradation models. Such times are obviously not... -
Model-Free Control of Time Delay Systems
In this chapter, we present delay compensation schemes for the stabilization of time delay systems using reinforcement learning (RL). An extended... -
On the Atypical Strength Anisotropy of Weakly Cemented Sandstones
Abstract—An atypical strength anisotropy manifesting itself in a monotone decrease in strength with decreasing angle between the maximum compressive...
