The log law of the wall, joining the inner, near-wall mean velocity profile (MVP) in wall-bounded turbulent flows to the outer region, has been a permanent fixture of turbulence research for over hundred years, but there is still no general agreement on th ...
Fluorosurfactants have expanded the landscape of high-value biochemical assays in microfluidic droplets, but little is known about how the spatial geometries and polarity of the head group contribute to the performance of fluorosurfactants. To decouple thi ...
The extensive use of frequency-domain tools for analyzing and controlling linear systems have become indispensable for the control systems engineer. However, due to the increased performance demands on today's industrial systems, the effects of certain non ...
We present algorithms for inferring the cost function and reference trajectory from human demonstrations of hand-writing tasks. These two key elements are then used, through optimal control, to generate an impedance-based controller for a robotic hand . Th ...
In this work, synthesis and closed-loop operation of robust distributed model predictive control (MPC) for linear systems using distributed optimization is discussed. Previous work has shown that a nominal MPC controller for this setup can be synthesized a ...
