Integrated Guidance and Control of Interceptor Missile Based on Asymmetric Barrier Lyapunov Function by Xiang Liu, Xiaogeng Liang

“…First, by considering the coupling between the pitch and the yaw channels of the interceptor missile, an IGC model of these channels is established, and a time-varying gain extended state observer (TVGESO) is designed to estimate unknown interferences in the model. Second, by considering the system output constraint problem, an asymmetric barrier Lyapunov function and a dynamic surface sliding-mode control method are employed to design the control law of the pitch and yaw channels to obtain the desired control moments. …”

Perceived value of organizational foresight processes: effects of the illusion of control and individual foresight by Natália Borges, Raquel Janissek-Muniz

“…The data were analyzed based on structural equations modeling with estimation through Partial Least Square (PLS). The sample was composed of 185 executives from the financial and technological sectors, and a reduction to the perceived value of foresight processes was identified, as a result of the illusion of control and individual practices of these activities. …”
