We report on the observation of a large production of runaway electrons during a disruptive termination of discharges heated with lower-hybrid waves at the Frascati Tokamak Upgrade. The runaway current plateaus, which can carry up to 80% of the predisrupti ...
The simulation of a series HEV (hybrid electric vehicle) is suggested by using the Energetic Macroscopic Representation (EMR). Simplified models are used in a first step. They lead to the simulation of an overall HEV with its control. The system is decompo ...
This review highlights several classes of natural product hybrids. First, structural hybrids emanating from different biosynthetic pathways exemplified by the polyketide peptide alkaloid anachelin are discussed. Another class is the so-called functional hy ...
The problem of driving a collection of mobile robots to a given target location is studied in the context of partial difference equations. In particular, we are interested in achieving this transfer while ensuring that the agents stay in the convex polytop ...
In this paper we present an experimental study in the identification of the electronic component placement process in pick-and-place machines. Unilateral contact and saturation phenomena characterize the hybrid dynamics of the system. Furthermore, the mode ...
This chapter describes an approach for indoor spatial representation, which is used to model the environment for the navigation of a fully autonomous robot. The metric and topological paradigms are integrated in a hybrid system for both localization and ma ...

This paper reports on the fabrication, experimental characterization and data transmission application of a double-gate movable body FET. As its name suggests, the proposed movable-body Micro-Electro-Mechanical FET (MB-MEMFET) is a hybrid MEMS-semiconducto ...
Increased market pressure, sharp competition and globalisation are some of the main challenges faced nowadays by companies, pushing them to continuously evaluate the suitability of their business model and to look for new opportunities. Electronic commerce ...
Visual behavior recognition is currently a highly active research area. This is due both to the scientific challenge posed by the complexity of the task, and to the growing interest in its applications, such as automated visual surveillance, human-computer ...
The main problem with Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) is the management of batteries. We suggest to replace the batteries by an energy storage ystem made of supercapacitors on a series HEV with two traction drive. A maximum Control Structure (MCS) of such a ...
