Robust Model Predictive Control Using Linear Matrix Inequalities for the Treatment of Asymmetric Output Constraints by Mariana Santos Matos Cavalca, Roberto Kawakami Harrop Galvão, Takashi Yoneyama

“…However, LMI-based RMPC formulations typically consider only symmetric constraints. This paper proposes a method based on pseudoreferences to treat asymmetric output constraints in integrating SISO systems. …”

Singularity-Free Neural Control for the Exponential Trajectory Tracking in Multiple-Input Uncertain Systems with Unknown Deadzone Nonlinearities by J. Humberto Pérez-Cruz, José de Jesús Rubio, Rodrigo Encinas, Ricardo Balcazar

“…The trajectory tracking for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems in which the number of possible states is equal to the number of inputs and each input is preceded by an unknown symmetric deadzone is considered. The unknown dynamics is identified by means of a continuous time recurrent neural network in which the control singularity is conveniently avoided by guaranteeing the invertibility of the coupling matrix. …”

Online Structural Health Monitoring of Rotating Machinery via Ultrasonic Guided Waves by Ming Li, Guang Meng, Hongguang Li, Jianxi Qiu, Fucai Li

“…Comparing with the same rotor without crack, the amplitudes of the guided wave packages descend along the transmission path and the symmetric path where crack exists; however, the amplitude of the wave packages will ascend along the other transmission paths.…”

Validity of black hole complementarity in an accelerating Schwarzschild black hole by Wontae Kim, Mungon Nam

“…Black hole complementarity has been well understood in spherically symmetric black holes. To study its validity for an accelerating Schwarzschild black hole, which has a preferred direction, we perform the thought experiment proposed by Susskind and Thorlacius and further investigate the criteria set by Hayden and Preskill. …”

TBA equations and quantum periods for D-type Argyres-Douglas theories by Katsushi Ito, Jingjing Yang

“…We study the variety of TBA systems across the Coulomb branch moduli space and find that they correspond to the Dynkin diagrams of D n Lie algebras in the minimal chamber, and reproduce the TBA equations for reflectionless D scattering theories at the maximally symmetric point. Numerical computations demonstrate that the quantum periods obtained from the Borel-Padé resummation and their WKB expansions are in agreement with the solutions of the TBA equations.…”

Spectroscopic Characteristics and Color Origin of Red Tourmaline from Brazil by Ming Li

“…The results showed that the red color was confirmed by the symmetric broad absorption at 527 nm and the narrow absorption at 400 and 450 nm, and the above three absorption bands were caused by the d-d electron transition of Mn3+, which occupied the Y site in the crystal structure and coordinated with F to form bonds. …”

The Strip-Ground Rectangular Patch Antenna by Yiying Wang, Yinghua Lu

“…To imitate the broken situation of the conductive threads of the wearable antenna, a strip-ground design of rectangular patch antenna with the conventional substrate is presented to investigate the change of the antenna performance, where the ground is sliced along its E-plane. The strips are symmetrical along the center line of the width of the patch, and the gap ratio of the gap to the solid ground varies with the change of gaps. …”

Nonself-Adjoint Second-Order Difference Operators in Limit-Circle Cases by Bilender P. Allahverdiev

“…We consider the maximal dissipative second-order difference (or discrete Sturm-Liouville) operators acting in the Hilbert space ℓ2𝑤(ℤ) (ℤ:={0,±1,±2,…}), that is, the extensions of a minimal symmetric operator with defect index (2,2) (in the Weyl-Hamburger limit-circle cases at ±∞). …”

A compact theorem on the compactness of ultra-compact objects with monotonically decreasing matter fields by Shahar Hod

“…In the present compact paper we raise the following physically interesting question: Is there a lower bound on the global compactness parameters $$\mathcal{C}\equiv \text {max}_r\{2m(r)/r\}$$ C ≡ max r { 2 m ( r ) / r } of spherically symmetric ultra-compact objects? Using the non-linearly coupled Einstein-matter field equations we explicitly prove that spatially regular ultra-compact objects with monotonically decreasing density functions (or monotonically decreasing radial pressure functions) are characterized by the lower bound $$\mathcal{C}\ge 1/3$$ C ≥ 1 / 3 on their dimensionless compactness parameters.…”
