DETECTING PRESYMPTOMATIC INFECTION IS NECESSARY TO FORECAST MAJOR EPIDEMICS IN THE EARLIEST STAGES OF INFECTIOUS DISEASE OUTBREAKS.

Detecting Presymptomatic Infection Is Necessary to Forecast Major Epidemics in the Earliest Stages of Infectious Disease Outbreaks.

We assess how presymptomatic infection affects predictability of infectious disease epidemics.We focus on whether or not a major outbreak (i.e.an epidemic that will go on to infect a large number of individuals) can be Accessories predicted reliably soon after initial cases of disease have appeared within a population.For emerging epidemics, signif

Open access gets tough

Open access has come of age in the UK.After a decade in which academic librarians have found it hard to get open access on to the university Legionnaires Hats agenda, it is now difficult to get it off.University senior managers and researchers are all preoccupied with it to an unprecedented degree.Policy decisions are being made by government, fund

Stability enhancement control strategy for grid-connected wind power system based on composite feedforward damping

The stability of grid-connected wind power system (GCWPS) is prone to deteriorate due to the impedance interaction between wind turbines and the weak grid.For purpose of finding out the cause of power oscillation and effectively improving the stability of GCWPS under weak grid, firstly of all, a frequency coupling impedance model (FCIM) for GCWPS i
