We are interested in the control of forming processes for nonlinear material models. To develop an online control we derive a novel feedback law and prove a stabilization result. The derivation of the feedback control law is based on a…
The paper highlights the role of a positive feedback gating mechanism at the cellular level in the robust- ness and modulation properties of rhythmic activities at the circuit level. The results are presented in the context of half-center…
Pulsatory activity patterns, driven by mechanochemical feedback, are prevalent in many biological systems. Here we present a theoretical framework to elucidate the mechanical origin and regulation of pulsatile activity patterns within…
Organisms are equipped with regulatory systems that display a variety of dynamical behaviours ranging from simple stable steady states, to switching and multistability, to oscillations. Earlier work has shown that oscillations in protein…
We study the functional characteristics of a two-gene motif consisting of a double positive feedback loop and an autoregulatory negative feedback loop. The motif appears in the gene regulatory network controlling the functional activity of…
Considering channel flow at Reynolds numbers below the linear stability threshold of the laminar profile as a generic example system showing a subcritical transition to turbulence connected with the existence of simple invariant solutions,…
We develop a predictor-feedback control design for multi-input nonlinear systems with distinct input delays, of arbitrary length, in each individual input channel. Due to the fact that different input signals reach the plant at different…
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes eliminate infected or malignant cells, safeguarding surrounding tissues. Although experimental and systems-immunology studies have cataloged many molecular and cellular actors involved in an immune response, the…
Genetically engineered bacteria to increase the tumbling frequency of the run-and-tumble motion for the higher local bacterial density form visible stripe pattern composed of successive high and low density regions on an agar plate. We…
Among living organisms, there are species that change their patterns on their body surface during their growth process and those that maintain their patterns. Theoretically, it has been shown that large-scale species do not form distinct…
Control theory arose from a need to control synthetic systems. From regulating steam engines to tuning radios to devices capable of autonomous movement, it provided a formal mathematical basis for understanding the role of feedback in the…
We investigate avascular tumour growth as a two-phase process consisting of cells and liquid. Based on the one-dimensional continuum moving-boundary model formulated by (Byrne, King, McElwain, Preziosi, Applied Mathematics Letters, 2003,…
In this paper, a two-dimensional model for the growth of multi-layer tumors is presented. The model consists of a free boundary problem for the tumor cell membrane and the tumor is supposed to grow or shrink due to cell proliferation or…
The clonal expansion of T cells during an infection is tightly regulated to ensure an appropriate immune response against invading pathogens. Although experiments have mapped the trajectory from expansion to contraction, the interplay…
In this work we analyze and bound the effect of modeling errors on the stabilization of pure states or subspaces for quantum stochastic evolutions. Different approaches are used for open-loop and feedback control protocols. For both, we…
Mathematical models of glucose, insulin, and pancreatic $\beta$-cell mass dynamics are essential for understanding the physiological basis of type 2 diabetes. This paper investigates the Topp model's discrete-time dynamics to represent…
Microtubules (MTs) are dynamic protein filaments essential for intracellular organization and transport, particularly in long-lived cells such as neurons. The plus and minus ends of neuronal MTs switch between growth and shrinking phases,…
We introduce here a simple finite-dimensional feedback control scheme for stabilizing solutions of infinite-dimensional dissipative evolution equations, such as reaction-diffusion systems, the Navier-Stokes equations and the…
In this work we introduce and analyze a linear size-structured population model with infinite states-at-birth. We model the dynamics of a population in which individuals have two distinct life-stages: an "active" phase when individuals…
Morphogenesis, the establishment and repair of emergent complex anatomy by groups of cells, is a fascinating and biomedically-relevant problem. One of its most fascinating aspects is that a developing embryo can reliably recover from…
