In this paper an adaptable algorithm for simulating CNN arrays is implemented using various RK-fourth order means such as Arithmetic Mean [AM], Centroidal Mean [CM], Harmonic Mean [HM], Contra Harmonic Mean [CoM], Heronian Mean [HeM], Geometric Mean [GM] and Root Mean Square [RMS] also, it is compared with RK-fourth order embedded means such as the RK-Embedded Heronian Mean, RK-Embedded Centroi...

Considerable work has been done on the development of advanced process control for the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) steelmaking process. Historically, many control systems have been employed which rely on static heat balance calculations coupled with power input profiles to generate recipe driven control models. Steelmakers have desired to have continuous information about the gases exiting the f...

Optical metasurfaces, i.e. arrays of nanoantennas with sub-wavelength size and separation, enable the manipulation light-matter interactions in miniaturized optical components no classical counterparts. Six decades after first observation second harmonic generation (SHG) bulk crystals, these devices are expected to break new ground field nonlinear optics, shifting focus from phase matching appr...

In this paper we analyze the quantum control of squeezed states of harmonic oscillators as well as spin squeezing and its relationship to quadrature squeezed states of other bosonic fields. Squeezing provides a method for reducing noise below the quantum limit and provides an example of the control of under-actuated control systems in the stochastic and quantum context. We consider also the int...

We consider damped stochastic systems in a controlled (time-varying) quadratic potential and study their transition between specified Gibbs-equilibria states in finite time. By the second law of thermodynamics, the minimum amount of work needed to transition from one equilibrium state to another is the difference between the Helmholtz free energy of the two states and can only be achieved by a ...
