In this paper, a robust adaptive actuator failure compensation control scheme is proposed for a class of multi input multi output linear systems with unknown time-varying state delay and in the presence of unknown actuator failures and external disturbance. The adaptive controller structure is designed based on the SPR-Lyapunov approach to achieve the control objective under the specific assump...

helicobacter pylori ( h. pylori ) infection is currently recognized as the major cause of chronic active gastritis, peptic ulcer disease and mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (malt) lymphoma and carcinoma of the stomach. eradication of the infection will prevent the recurrence of the majority of such diseases. different combined treatments have been tried in iran for eradication of h. pylori , ...

In [3], Rogers discussed the concept of Gödel numbering. He defined a semi-effective numbering, constructed a semi-lattice of equivalence classes of semi-effective numberings, and showed that all Gödel numberings belong to the unique maximal element of this semi-lattice. In [l], Friedberg gave a recursive enumeration without repetition of the set of partial recursive functions of a single varia...

The telecommunication numbering system in Indonesia currently complies to the International TelecommunicationUnion (ITU) standard, that is ITU-T E.164. In accordance to both technology development and the growing of network users, ITU has also been designing future infrastructure network concept, namely Next Generation Network Infrastructure (NGNI). In its technical paper, ITU discusses future ...

Many problems involving the interaction of an elastic structure and a viscous fluid can be solved by the immersed boundary (IB) method. In the IB approach to such problems, the elastic forces generated by the immersed structure are applied to the surrounding fluid, and the motion of the immersed structure is determined by the local motion of the fluid. Recently, the IB method has been extended ...

Workflow graphs, consisting of actions, events, and logical switches, are used to model business processes. In order to easily identify the actions within a workflow graph, it is useful to number them in such a way that the numbering reflects the structure of the workflow. However, available tools offer only rudimental numbering schemes. In the paper, a set of natural requirements is defined th...
