Contouring control is in wide use in the manufacturing industry. To achieve accurate contouring control, accurate control error estimation is necessary. However, for free-form contours, there is a lack of effective algorithms for accurately estimating contour errors.

Based on the NURBS interpolation, certain discrete reference input points are then used to reconstruct the NURBS curve. Finally, the contour error is estima

This paper investigates the global stabilization problem for a class of nonholonomic systems in chained form with input delay. A particular transformation is introduced to convert the original time-delay system into a delay-free form. Then, by using input-state-scaling technique and the method of sliding mode control, a constructive design procedure for state feedback control is given, which can guarantee that all the system states globally asymptotically converge to the origin. An illustrative example is also provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

The aim of this paper is to derive the global Hamiltonian form for a quantum system and bath, or more generally a quantum network with multiple quantum input field connections, based on the local descriptions. We give a new simple argument which shows that the global Hamiltonian for a single Markov component arises as the singular perturbation of the free translation operator. We show that the Fermi analogue takes an equivalent form provided the parity of the coefficients is correctly specified. This allows us to immediately extend the theory of quantum feedback networks to Fermi systems.

We introduce a particular transformation to convert the original system into a delay-free system. Finally, we apply a state feedback control, which guarantees a quasi-exponential stabilization to all the system states, which in turn converge exponentially to zero. Then we employ the so-called -type control to achieve a quasi-exponential stabilization of the subsequent system.

The dataset is generated through aeroelastic simulations combined with both virtual nacelle lidars and the dynamic wake meandering model. A feature-selection algorithm is used to select the input variables among the available measurements, showing that the optimal model i

Abstract:
Molecular similarity is an elusive but core “unsupervised” cheminformatics concept, yet different “fingerprint” encodings of molecular structures return very different similarity values, even when using the same similarity metric. Each encoding may be of value when applied to other problems with objective or target functions, implying that a priori none are “better” than the others, nor than encoding-free metrics such as maximum common substructure (MCSS). We here introduce a novel approach to molecular similarity, in the form of a variational autoencoder (VAE). This learns the joint distribut

Force differential constraint in the form of the adapting device (for example, liquid hydro clutch) provides adaptation of the mechanism to variable loading. Force differential constraint can be superimposed on input structural group by connected kinematic chain without the adapting device. It allows to create the simple adaptive mechanism (for example, CVT) and to provide force adaptation of the mechanism lost-free powers.

The problem of inversion of dynamic systems has become widespread while solving the problems of control, identification, and measurement problems arising during the design and research of electrical and mechanical dynamic systems. Inverting is an effective way of implementing disturbance control processes, as well as in combined control systems with a predictive model. The analysis of information sources showed that in the practical solution of most inversion problems, a number of difficulties arise, which are associated with the high sensitivity of the results in relation to the accuracy of t

Abstract:
We study unanticipated tariffs in a setting with firm-to-firm supply relationships. Firms conduct costly searches and negotiate with potential suppliers that pass a reservation level of match productivity. Global supply chains form in anticipation of free trade. Then, the home government surprises with an input tariff. This can lead to renegotiation with initial suppliers or search for replacements. Calibrating the model’s parameters to match initial import shares and the estimated responses to the US tariffs imposed on China, we find an overall welfare loss of 0.12 percent of GDP, with substa

Abstract:
Context-free language reachability (CFL-reachability) is a fundamental framework for program analysis. A large variety of static analyses can be formulated as CFL-reachability problems, which determines whether specific source-sink pairs in an edge-labeled graph are connected by a reachable path, i.e., a path whose edge labels form a string accepted by the given CFL. Computing CFL-reachability is expensive. The fastest algorithm exhibits a slightly subcubic time complexity with respect to the input graph size. Improving the scalability of CFL-reachability is of practical interest, but reducing

Model-free adaptive control (MFAC) can carry out various tasks using only I/O data, providing advantages such as lower operational costs, higher scalability and easier implementation. However, the robustness of MFAC remains an open problem. In this paper, a robust fractional-order model-free adaptive control (RFOMFAC) scheme is proposed to address the robust tracking control issue for a class of uncertain discrete-time nonlinear systems with bounded measurement disturbance. First, we use a fractional-order dynamic data model relating the relationship between the output signal and the fractiona

Abstract This paper extends the seminal model of vertical product differentiation by Ronnen (1991) to a two-tier supply chain. While Ronnen considers the duopoly case, we add a vertical structure such that each downstream firm procures an input from a monopolistic upstream supplier. While simultaneous up- and downstream regulation in the form of a minimum quality standard restores Ronnen’s findings, if only one firm is regulated in the vertical chain, a free-rider effect results: all the bargaining power is given to the non-regulated member of the chain, which uses it to free-ride on the press

The paper proposes a new method for synchronization of coupled circadian cells and for nonlinear control of the associated protein synthesis process using differential flatness theory and the derivative-free nonlinear Kalman filter. By proving that the dynamic model of the FRQ protein synthesis is a differentially flat one, its transformation to the linear canonical (Brunovsky) form becomes possible. For the transformed model, one can find a state feedback control input that makes the oscillatory characteristics in the concentration of the FRQ protein vary according to desirable setpoints. To

A study in eastern Canada captured the challenges of introducing low-input cropping systems in mature (20+ yr) tillage treatments in a barley/red clover/corn/soybean rotation. Each mature tillage system came with its own weed problems, but this did not affect crops such as barley and red clover, which produced similar yields across high and low input systems.

Organic matter (OM) has a tremendous influence on the biological, chemical, and physical properties of soils, making it a vital component of healthy agricultural systems. Release of the nutrients locked within soil OM requires the activity of soil microorganisms, primarily decomposers, to transform it into nutritive forms that can be used by other microbes and plants. OM turnover is a good thing, as it liberates the locked up nutrients. However, when this liberation is accomplished by free-living decomposer communities, i.e., those not typically forming relationships with plants, the carbon ma

In this paper, a convolved feature vector based adaptive fuzzy filter is proposed for impulse noise removal. The proposed filter follows traditional approach, i.e., detection of noisy pixels based on certain criteria followed by filtering process. In the first step, proposed noise detection mechanism initially selects a small layer of input image pixels, convolves it with a set of weighted kernels to form a convolved feature vector layer. This layer of features is then passed to fuzzy inference system, where fuzzy membership degrees and reduced set of fuzzy rules play an important part to clas

The paper describes a method that uses a multivariate model in the form of a nonhomogeneous finite difference equation to identify modal parameters of a mechanical structure. The modal parameters of this equation are estimable using a model that involves multiple input, multiple output vibration data. Thus, improved global estimates of modal parameters can be obtained, including the identification of highly coupled and pseudo-repeated modes of vibration. When the data are in the form of impulse or free decay responses, then the parameters of the homogeneous part of the equation can be estimate
