RISMechanism on the Short-Term Variability of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation in the Subtropical and Tropical Regions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
High-Gain-Observer-Based Predictive Output Feedback for Nonlinear Systems With Large Input-Delays
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The predictor feedback has been demonstrated to be quite effective in large delay compensation. However, few researches in the field of predictor feedback for large delays focused on output feedback control (OFC). This ...
Optimal Vibration Control for Uncertain Nonlinear Sampled Data Systems With Actuator and Sensor Delays: Application to a Vehicle Suspension
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The problem of optimal sampleddata vibration control for nonlinear systems with time delays and uncertainties is considered. With the purpose of simplifying the nonlinear optimal vibration control (NOVC) design, the original ...
Effective and Robust Vibration Control Using Series Multiple Tuned-Mass Dampers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Various types of tuned-mass dampers (TMDs), or dynamic vibration absorbers, have been proposed in literature, including the classic TMD, (parallel) multiple TMDs, multidegree-of-freedom (DOF) TMD, ...
Phytoremediation: An Ecotechnology for Treating Contaminated Sites
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Phytoremediation is an ecotechnological remediation for treating contaminated sites. This phytotechnology uses plants to degrade, transform, assimilate, metabolize, or detoxify hazardous pollutants from soil and aquatic ...
Retrieval of Atmospheric Temperature Profiles from AMSU-A Measurement Using a Neural Network Approach
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Backpropagation neural networks are applied to retrieve atmospheric temperature profiles and tropopause variables from the NOAA-15 Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AMSU-A) measurement based on two different data sources. ...
The Sloshing and Diapycnal Meridional Overturning Circulations in the Indian Ocean

Passivity-Based Output Feedback Control for Systems With Nonlinear Outputs Via High-Gain Observers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a high-gain observer with nonlinear output is designed. The scaled estimation error system is constructed with a passive function based on the nonlinear output function and a strictly positive real transfer ...
Reducing Volume Expansion of Steel Slag by Using a Surface Hydrophobic Waterproof Structure
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Reducing volume expansion of steel slag is a key problem for steel slag to be applied in asphalt concrete pavement. It not only avoids environmental damage caused by natural stone mining but also provides a cheap and ...
