Envelope-Based Variable-Gain Control Strategy for Vibration Suppression of Solar Array Using Reaction Wheel Actuator by Song Wu, Guoan Tang, Bifa Chen

“…The orbital operation of spacecraft can excite the long-drawn and low-frequency vibration of the solar array, which is prone to affecting the task execution of the system. To address this issue, an envelope-based variable-gain control strategy is proposed to suppress vibration of the solar array using the reaction wheel (RW) actuator. …”

Minimum-cost gateway placement in wireless mesh networks with QoS constraints by ZENG Feng, CHEN Zhi-gang, DENG Xiao-heng

“…Focusing on gateway optimal placement with QoS constraints in WMNs and aiming to minimize the cost of gateway placement,firstly,a new concept of limited dominating set（LDS） in graph was presented to addresses the gate-way placement problem,and to find the solution of minimum placement cost is to find the LDS of minimum weight in the graph.Then,in order to find the minimum weighted LDS in graph,a greedy algorithm GREEDY_LDS was proposed,in which the ratio of LOAD/COST was used as heuristic information to find minimum cost placement of gateway.To get further optimal solution,a particle swarm optimization algorithm PSO_LDS was proposed,in which two premature avoidance methods were presented to improve the algorithm’s ability of searching for global optimal solution.At last,simulation has been done,and experiment result shows that GREEDY_LDS has lower computing complexity,and when the number of gateway candidate is more than 17% of the total number of node,the result from GREEDY_LDS is better than the others.Simulation also shows that PSO_LDS can get the more optimal solution at the price of increasing of executing time.Compared with GREEDY_LDS and OPEN/CLOSE,the average cost of gateway placement is decreased by about 15% and 9% respectively.…”

Modern tests for the selection of children in performance handball by Andreea-Teodora Damaschin, Ștefan Ciobanu

“…Thus, the aim of this study is to identify a battery of tests that assess the current essential motor components of female handball players and to verify their level of development in a handball team.The tests used to evaluate the motor skills of handball players were the T-reaction test, which assesses complex reaction speed at the upper limb level, the Squat Jump, CMJ, and FJ tests, which assess the explosive strength ofthe lower limbs, the 4 Jumps test, which evaluates agility and execution speed, and a test to evaluate the strength of the palm flexors.The subjects of the research were 21 amateur female handball players aged 10±1 years who practice handball at an amateur level.We identified a series of tests in the specialized literature that we applied to the subjects of this research, and the results obtained showed a good level of development of the motor qualities evaluated among the athletes, as well as differences between the right and left limbs regarding the strength of the palm flexors.…”
