Fully electric vehicles with individually controlled drivetrains can provide a high degree of drivability and vehicle safety, all while increasing the cornering limit and the ‘fun-todrive’ aspect. This paper investigates a new approach on how sideslip control can be integrated into a continuously active yaw rate controller to extend the limit of stable vehicle cornering and to allow sustained h...

We consider an ergodic stochastic control problem for a class of one-dimensional Itô processes where the available control is an added bounded variation process. The corresponding infinite horizon discounted control problem is solved in [28]. Here, we show that, as the discount factor approaches zero, the optimal strategies derived in [28] “converge” to an optimal strategy for the ergodic contr...

conclusions thus, we can conclude that a simulator system using an extracorporeal circulation system can be set to different models of dialyzers, and that the reproduced treatment scenarios can be used for simulation training. results the results of the tests demonstrated successful activation of the alarms by the dialysis apparatus, which were appropriate for each of the five types of accident...

BACKGROUND The endocannabinoid system has previously been implicated in the regulation of neurons and inflammatory cells. Additionally, it has been reported that endocannabinoid receptors are present on circulating platelets, but there has been conflicting evidence on their contribution to platelet function. OBJECTIVES Our aim was to examine the role of endocannabinoids in platelet function i...

Traditional methods for solving multiuser control problems in CDMA systems do not scale well as the number of users in the system increases. Indeed, the size and complexity of the control problem generally grows exponentially with the number of users. In order to find a tractable solution to these problems we develop a wideband limit approximation for dynamic programming problems in CDMA system...

Adaptive controllers are used in systems where one or more parameters are unknown. Such controllers are designed to stabilize the system using an estimate for the unknown parameters that is adapted automatically as part of the stabilization. One drawback in adaptive control design is the possibility that the closed-loop limit system is not stable. The worst situation is the existence of a desta...

In this work, an aeroelastic prediction framework is formulated by blending control-oriented techniques that consist of linear fractional transformation representation, identification of nonlinear operators, and stability boundary prediction for both flutter and limit-cycle-oscillation phenomena. The final product is an efficient tool devised to identify, characterize, and predict flutter/limit...

Limit cycle oscillations of rotor speed are substantially caused by inverter’s dead time, when an induction motor (IM) drive operates in low frequency condition. In this paper, without any hardware modification, discontinuous PWM (DPWM3) modulate strategy possibly controls the unfavorable rotor speed limit cycle under no load operation condition. Simulated results are presented to demonstrate t...
