INNATE IMMUNE RESPONSES IN PNEUMONIA

Innate immune responses in pneumonia

Abstract The lungs are an immunologically unique environment; they are exposed to innumerable pathogens and particulate matter daily.Appropriate clearance of pathogens and response to pollutants is required to prevent overwhelming infection, while preventing tissue damage and maintaining efficient gas exchange.Broadly, the innate immune system is t

Distributed Tracking Control for Connectivity-Preserving and Collision-Avoiding Formation Tracking of Underactuated Surface Vessels with Input Saturation

This paper investigates the formation tracking control problem of a group of underactuated surface vessels (USVs) in the presence of model uncertainties and environmental disturbances.Additional constraints, such as Rethermalizers collision avoidance, heterogeneous limited communication range and input saturation are also considered.A modified barr
