Foodborne illness is an important public health problem in the United States. Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) is widely acknowledged as an effective method to ensure product quality and control foodborne hazards. The case-study method is applied to the Prevention-Appraisal-Failure...

In this paper, we study a kind of system of second order quasilinear parabolic partial differential equation combined with algebra equations. Introducing a family of coupled forward–backward stochastic differential equations, and by virtue of some delicate analysis techniques, we give a...

We prove some comparison theorems for forward backward SDEs in 1-dimension or multi-dimension by probabilistic method and duality technique.

Carbon deposition is a thorny issue for the SOFC fueled by low carbon hydrocarbons such as biomass syngas. Moreover, long-term large temperature gradients would reduce SOFC durability. Regarding these two issues, a two dimensional transient multi-physical model considering carbon deposition and...
