The estimation of parameters lagged multilevel mod- els is considered. This type model used in many application areas, including psychology and education, where changes test re- sults over time can be modelled. Standard techniques are shown to give inconsistent results for this formulation the multi- level model. For two simple assumptions concerning nature covariate a first second difference i...


 This paper attempts to explain the collective incomprehensibility of The Waste Land. Of course, this attempt does not only apply music Anthony Burgess, since, for one, it is inseparable from poetry T. S. Eliot, and also multiplies number quotations associations in literary work, be obvious or more less hid- den. Therefore, will embark on a special task: through compositional methods nine...

abstract: in this work, an optimal control scheme with adaptive weighting coefficients is presented which coordinates different vehicle dynamics control objectives, thus ruling out possible conflicts among them. in a new approach, the weighting coefficients in optimal control are adjusted according to the vehicle state in the phase plane in such a way that a priority is given to each objective ...

Integrated control of ectoparasites of veterinary importance is being implemented on a limited basis at present. However, several forces are accelerating a global shift to integrated pest management (IPM). These accelerating forces include the following: reduction in new chemical compounds registered for use on livestock and poultry universal development of resistance to pesticides heightened e...

This paper presents the development of an integrated reconfigurable control allocation approach. This integrated approach combines frequencyapportioned control allocation with actuator failure detection and isolation. Frequency-apportioned control allocation integrates innovative control effectors with conventional aerodynamic controls and considers both the steady-state performance and frequen...
