A Study on Autoimmune Diseases and Their Effects on Body Systems
Abstract: Autoimmune diseases are disorders in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own healthy cells, tissues, and organs instead of protecting them from harmful substances. This abnormal response results in inflammation, tissue injury, and impaired function of different organs. The purpose of this study is to present a general understanding of autoimmune disorders and explore their impact on multiple body systems, such as the musculoskeletal, nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, and …

Dynamic Matrix Control Versus Nonlinear ModelPredictive Control for the Van de Vusse ContinuousStirred-Tank Reactor: Diagnosing and Correcting aCost-Function Pathology That Masked NMPC’sTrue Performance
Abstract: The Van de Vusse reaction in a continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR) is a benchmark for nonlinear multivariable control, but its narrow operating envelope creates a trap for nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC): when the setpoint step is small relative to the plant’s reachable range, a standard quadratic NMPC cost function can make zero control action mathematically optimal, even with a perfect prediction model. This paper documents that failure mode, traces …
