The majority of homing guided missiles use gimbaled seekers. The equations describing seeker gimbal system are highly nonlinear. Accurate nonlinear control of the motion of the gimbaled seeker through the attached DC motors is required. In this paper, an online technique for finite-horizon nonlinear tracking problems is presented. The idea of the proposed technique is the change of variables th...

This paper presents a seeker algorithm for solving the multi-objective reactive power dispatch problem. Swarm intelligence algorithms have been productively applied to hard optimization problems. Seeker optimization algorithm is one of the latest members of that class of metaheuristics and the primary type of this algorithm was less successful with multimodal functions. We propose hybridization...

Missile pose estimation in terminal guidance refers to the technique of estimating missile position and attitude by matching seeker images with pre stored reference images during the terminal phase of missile flight. This paper presents a method for estimating the position and orientation of the missile with respect to a known object using point correspondences between seeker and reference imag...

This paper examines the shifting role of perceived value and satisfaction in the formation of loyalty over the duration of a relationship life cycle. Drawing on a sample of online shoppers in Taiwan, the results show that the association between loyalty intention and shopping experiences conforms to an S-shaped growth curve. Customers’ intentions to stay with a website appear to be influenced b...

On the Internet today, a type of customer called “Information Seeker” may develop more easily, who tries to gather independent sources of information about different products prior to purchase and thus makes a deliberate selection rather than trusting sellers or brands. Therefore, the function of brands in transmitting information will lose significance, with enormous impact on brand loyalty, e...

Many of the details issues Islamic theology were not present in prophetic era, so when they appeared later ages, school hadiths stood against them. They saw that studying these would harm Muslim's belief. In addition to this, are considered heresy was reported from Prophet. The School Salaf has many books warning heresies and Ahl Kalam. These characterized by textuality; Meaning it is full vers...
