Study on a Class of Piecewise Nonlinear Systems with Fractional Delay by Meiqi Wang, Wenli Ma, Enli Chen, Yujian Chang

“…By analyzing the amplitude frequency response characteristics, the influence of time delay and fractional-order parameters on the stability of the system is analyzed in this paper, and the bifurcation equations of the system are studied by using the theory of continuity. The transition sets under different piecewise states and the constrained bifurcation behaviors under the corresponding unfolding parameters are obtained. …”

IBOA-Based Optimization of Cross-Sectional Dimension of Rods for a 3-RRR PPM to Minimize Energy Consumption by Yin Gao, Ke Chen, Hong Gao, Hongmei Zheng, Lei Wang, Kerong Jiang

“…For obtaining optimal cross-sectional dimensions of rods for a 3-RRR planar parallel manipulator (PPM) to minimize energy consumption, the inverse dynamics of the manipulator is modeled based on the Newton–Euler method, after which the coefficient matrix of the inverse dynamics equation is decomposed based on matrix theory. Hence, the objective function, that is, the logical relationship between the energy consumption of the manipulator and the cross-sectional dimension of each rod, is established. …”

A Historical Review of African Scholarship and the Decolonial Discourse: Challenges and Prospects by Juliet Munyaradzi

“…That section critically analyses the challenges and opportunities which have been encountered in reshaping the discourses of knowledge production and decolonisation in theory and practice. It is concluded that in its distinctiveness in asserting African and marginalised knowledge systems as valid and relevant, and operating in spaces of struggle, the African scholarship should continue to contribute to the interrogation of the objectivity of Eurocentric, neoliberal thought. …”
