Use of Directional Spectra for Detection of Engine Cylinder Power Fault by Chong-Won Lee, Yun-Sik Han, Jong-Po Park

“…As spectral estimators, the maximum likelihood and FFT methods are compared, and the multi-layer neural network is employed for pattern recognition. Experimental results show that the success rate for identifying the misfired cylinder is much higher with the use of two-sided directional power spectra than conventional one-sided power spectra.…”

Reachable Set Bounding for a Class of Nonlinear Time-Varying Systems with Delay by Xingao Zhu, Yuangong Sun, Fanwei Meng

“…Unlike some preceding works, the involved disturbance input and time-varying delay are not assumed to be bounded. By employing an approach which does not involve the conventional Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, new conditions are proposed such that all the state trajectories of the system converge asymptotically within a ball. …”

Weighted Moving Averages for a Series of Fuzzy Numbers Based on Nonadditive Measures with σ − λ Rules and Choquet Integral of Fuzzy-Number-Valued Function by Zengtai Gong, Wenjing Lei, Kun Liu, Na Qin

“…The aim of this study is to generalize moving average by means of Choquet integral. First, by employing nonadditive measures with δ − λ rules, the calculation of the moving average for a series of fuzzy numbers can be transformed into Choquet integration of fuzzy-number-valued function under discrete case. …”

An architectonics of desire: the person on the path to Nada in John of the Cross by F. England

“…With a modest shift in perspective, this article attempts to read John through the lens of desire, rather than against it. It employs the notion of ‘desireless desire’, in order to describe John’s final position of waiting as one that neither dispenses with an authentically human and desiring subject, nor compromises the final aim of union with God. …”
