This paper proposed a fuzzy controller for the autonomous navigation problem of robotic systems in a dynamic and uncertain environment. In particular, we are interested in determining the robot motion to reach the target while ensuring their own safety and ...
The objective of the work presented here is to develop a low cost active above knee prosthetic device exploiting bipedal robotics technology which will work utilizing the available biological motor control circuit properly integrated with a Central Pattern ...
The Cross Connected Intermediate Level (CCIL) Voltage Source Inverter Topology was first introduced in 2007 [1]. The idea behind this novel multilevel topology is to explore the area of reduced number of component topologies producing large number of volta ...
Among the driving processes responsible for riparian forest dynamics the species-specific impact of flooding on the development of woody plants plays a key role-particularly for lowland rivers. Only a few of the forest succession models currently in use in ...
Product end-of-life treatment is unavoidable, no matter how well the product is designed. European regulations becoming stringent regarding the disposal of products, emphasis on end-of-life (EOL) issues at the conceptual design stage gained in importance. ...
The Minnesota family of exchange-correlation (xc) functionals are among the most popular, accurate, and abundantly used functionals available to date. However, their use in plane-wave based first-principles MD has been limited by their sparse availability. ...
We present decision procedures for logical constraints that support reasoning about collections of elements such as sets, multisets, and fuzzy sets. Element membership in such collections is given by a characteristic function from a finite universe (of unk ...
The restructuring of the electricity supply industry (ESI) has introduced new actors and market mechanisms. Electricity prices are more market oriented and fluctuate greatly. These changes bring about more uncertainties and risks to the market participants ...
Virtual marketplaces on the Web provide people with great facilities to buy and sell goods similar to conventional markets. In traditional business, reputation is subjectively built for known persons and companies as the deals are made in the course of tim ...
An application of fuzzy logic based control for power systems governing multiple flexible alternating current transmission system (FACTS) devices is described here. Sufficiently accurate relations have been derived to determine setpoints of FACTS devices u ...
