This paper investigates the fractional order chaotic systems synchronization with input delay. To reduce utilization of communication resources and achieve system synchronization, an adaptive neural network backstepping sliding mode controller is proposed based on event-triggered scheme without Zeno behavior. avoid “explosion complexity” obtain derivatives for virtual control functions continuo...

The mathematical underpinning of the pulse width modulation (PWM) technique lies in the attempt to represent "accurately" harmonic waveforms using only square forms of a fixed height. The accuracy can be measured using many norms, but the quality of the approximation of the analog signal (a harmonic form) by a digital one (simple pulses of a fixed high voltage level) requires the elimination of...

This article presents a sensor excitation and signal processing approach that combines temperature modulation and transient analysis to enhance the selectivity and sensitivity of metal-oxide gas sensors. A staircase waveform is applied to the sensor heater to extract transient information from multiple operating temperatures. Four different transient analysis techniques, Pade–Z-transform, multi...

A field-theoretic description of the critical behavior of weakly disordered systems with a p-component order parameter is given. For systems of an arbitrary dimension in the range from three to four, a renormalization group analysis of the effective replica Hamiltonian of the model with an interaction potential without replica symmetry is given in the two-loop approximation. For the case of the...

Through an integrative literature review involving the CINAHL, Cochrane, Embase, LILACS, PsycINFO, PubMed databases, tools available in the literature for assessing pain in individuals with severe dementia were identified along with versions validated for use in Brazil. We found 1501 relevant articles which, after selection of abstracts and full reading, yielded a final sample of 33 articles. T...

Since the advent of Taylor Series, polynomial methods have been used to solve di↵erential equations and learn the properties of di↵erential equations. There are many polynomial methods for solving di↵erential equations and understanding dynamical systems. For example, Taylor polynomials, Chebyshev Polynomials and Adomian Polynomials are used to generate approximate solutions. Automatic di↵erent...
