Industrial applications often require two or more variable-speed electric drives, which have to be controlled independently. Over the past decade research efforts have been made to reduce the number of power electronic devices required in multi-motor drive ...
We present the fabrication and testing of a novel MEMS inertial sensor that directly measures the gravity gradient in low Earth orbit in order to sense the relative orientation of a satellite with respect to the Earth. Instead of the current Earth sensing ...

We present the fabrication and test results of a novel inertial sensor for use onboard satellites, to obtain the Earth vector. Current state-of-the-art Earth sensors determine the Earth vector by imaging the Earth's horizon in the IR. This requires multipl ...
In guided urban automated transportation systems, the maintenance of a high-quality broadband train-to-wayside communication at all locations along the track poses a major problem. Several techniques are currently used. However, to achieve sufficient rates ...

A unique and practical synthetic sequence for rapid access to polyketides and to further the spiroacetals derived from them, which utilizes a bidirectional Hosomi-Sakurai allylation approach around key allylsilanes in the synthesis of the AB and CD ring sy ...
Interaction of a plasma with a surface results in chemical and physical restructuring of the surface as well as the plasma in the vicinity of the surface. Studying such a reorganization of the atoms and molecules in the surface layer requires optical tools ...
High capacity data storage on DVD and optical discs is based on focused light beams. The characterization of light fields within the focus point is a very difficult task, which requires a high-resolution method like scanning near field optical microscopy ( ...
We present a novel MEMS inertial sensor that directly measures the gravity gradient in order to sense the relative orientation of a satellite with respect to the Earth. An Earths ensor provides an orbiting satellite with a vector towards the Earth center. ...
Simulations of the plasma current density evolution in electron internal transport barrier discharges on the Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV) have been performed, in order to determine the relationship between the safety-factor profile and the electr ...
In this paper, to learn multiple tasks sharing same inputs, a two-layer architecture for a reservoir based recurrent neural network is proposed. The inputs are fed into the general workspace layer where the weights are adapted to provide maximum informatio ...
