ELMs and Sawteeth, located in different parts of the plasma, are similar from a control engineering point of view. Both manifest themselves through quiescent periods interrupted by periodic collapses. For both, large collapses, following long quiescent per ...
This thesis uses the idea of lifting (or embedding) a nonlinear controlled dynamical system into an infinite-dimensional space of measures where this system is equivalently described by a linear equation. This equation and problems involving it are subsequ ...
The influence of state feedback coupling in the dynamics performance of power converters for stand-alone microgrids is investigated. Computation and pulsewidth-modulated (PWM) delays are the main factors that limit the achievable bandwidth of current regul ...
Atomic force microscope (AFM) is a tool that allows micro and nano scale imaging of samples ranging from solid state physics to biology. AFM uses mechanical forces to sense the sample and recreate a topography image with high spatial resolution. The bigges ...
Historically, infectious diseases caused considerable damage to human societies, and they continue to do so today. To help reduce their impact, mathematical models of disease transmission have been studied to help understand disease dynamics and inform pre ...
The present invention provides a closed-loop system for real-time control of epidural and/or subdural electrical stimulation comprising: means for applying to a subject neuromodulation with adjustable stimulation parameters, said means being operatively co ...
Electromagnetic metasurfaces with strong non- linear responses and angular selectivity could o ff er many new avenues for designing ultrathin optics components. We investigated the optical second harmonic generation from plasmonic metasurfaces composed of ...
We present an approach to generate rapid and fluid drawing movements on a compliant Baxter robot, by taking advantage of the kinematic redundancy and torque control capabilities of the robot. We concentrate on the task of reproducing graffiti-stylised lett ...
The precision measurement of position has a long-standing tradition in physics. Cavendish's verification of the universal law of gravitation using a torsion pendulum, Perrin's confirmation of the atomic hypothesis via the precise measurement of the Brownia ...
This paper demonstrates that an array of cantilever sensors can be operated simultaneously at resonance using a single actuator and a single photodetector. Self-sustained oscillations (SSOs) of cantilevers can be achieved in a feed-back loop using gain sat ...
