Abstract: In many hydraulic control and other systems the effect of fluid carrying lines is an important factor in system dynamics. Following electrical transmission line technique a hydraulic line between ...

Abstract: A method is presented for the formulation of an experimental procedure for the identification of unknown parameters in nonlinear boundary conditions in distributed parameter dynamic systems. In ...

Abstract: A work is described which studied the capabilities of a STOL aircraft equipped with digital minicomputer serving as an autopilot making a curved approach to a runway along a path prescribed ...

Abstract: A method is given for the identification of distributed parameter systems. Normal operating records or experimental data may be used. The method involves the determination of arbitrary parameters ...

Abstract: In the design of controllers for heat transfer systems, one must often describe the plant dynamics by partial differential equations. The problem of optimizing a controller for a system described ...

Abstract: Curve fitting techniques are used to analytically represent experimental data on engine emissions as a function of engine operating variables. A model of the engine-vehicle system is formulated ...
