a fault-tolerant control (ftc) methodology has been presented for nonlinear processes being imposed by control input constraints. the proposed methodology uses a combination of feedback linearization and model predictive control (flmpc) schemes. the resulting constraints in the transformed process will be dependent on the actual evolving states, making their incorporation in the design context ...

In recent years, installation of plates in canal beds have been considered for sedimentation control and bed load reduction at canal intake. These planes, called submerged vanes, are different in dimensions. They are installed at intakes in-group with reasonable distance from each other. Presence of these vanes at intakes initiate transverse shear stress on river bed and causes sediment transpo...

We discuss a finite method of feasible directions for linear programs. The method begins with a BFS (basic feasible solution) and constructs a profitable direction by combining the updated columns of several nonbasic variables eligible to enter. Moving in this direction as far as possible, while retaining feasibility, leads to a point which is not in general a basic solution of the original pro...
