This paper addresses control design in networked control system by considering stochastic packet dropouts in the forward path of the control loop. The packet dropouts are modelled by mutually independent stochastic variables satisfying Bernoulli binary distribution. A sliding mode controller is utilized to overcome the adverse influences of stochastic packet dropouts in networked control system...

Social networks, which emerged due to the rapid development of modern telecommunications and information technologies that led to the emergence of the Internet, can be viewed as a phenomenon of the information society. In a short time, there has been both quantitative and qualitative growth of social networks, which have become a common phenomenon in our life and the dominant way of communicati...

the coronary slow flow phenomenon (csfp) is characterized by a delayed coronary blood flow in the absence of an obstructive coronary artery disease. although the relation between the csfp and myocardial ischemia has been reported previously, there is no knowledge about the relationship between the csfp and the conduction system disorder. in this case report, we describe a patient with the csfp ...

badi’ iyaat – created as a new technique in a period of arabic literature, that is known as the decline era. the study of this technique as a form of poetry in this era, creates a cloud of doubt for naming the period. there have been many poets with thousands of great poems that reflect the prominence of this era not its decline. the writer of this article has studied badi’ iyaat in khazaanat –...

The hypothesis that plasma chylomicrons in persons who ingest a cholesterol-rich diet are atherogenic is evaluated. Evidence is presented that in humans, and experimental animals, chylomicron remnants as well as low-density lipoproteins are taken up by arterial cells. In persons who do not have familial hyperlipoproteinemia, atherogenesis may occur during the postprandial period. Research direc...

Nature appears in Merleau-Ponty’s early texts more as a context for a phenomenology of embodied existence than as a topic of interest in its own right.1 Since the philosopher became intensely interested in nature only from 1955 or 1956 on, one might think that an exploration of the earlier phenomenology of perception and behavior constitutes a digression from the later “new” ontology. Yet there...

The phenomenon of dynamic stabilization of the inverted pendulum whose pivot is forced to oscillate with a high frequency in vertical direction is revisited. A simple physically meaningful explanation of the phenomenon is presented, followed by the derivation of an approximate quantitative criterion of stability. A computer program simulating the physical system is developed, which aids the ana...
