Urban projects in France: navigating neoliberalism, justice, and commons planning by Youness Achmani

“…The paper explores three key research subjects in contemporary urban projects: the interplay between neoliberal and the just city paradigms, the divergence between judicial and spatial understandings of justice, and the potential of commons and social innovation as an emerging paradigm and a response to neoliberal paradigm and spatial inequalities. This research synthesises existing knowledge and identifies key areas for future investigation, offering insights that can inform both theoretical discourse and practical applications in urban planning.…”

Ordered Structures of Constructing Operators for Generalized Riesz Systems by Hiroshi Inoue

“…A sequence {φn} in a Hilbert space H with inner product <·,·> is called a generalized Riesz system if there exist an ONB e={en} in H and a densely defined closed operator T in H with densely defined inverse such that {en}⊂D(T)∩D((T-1)⁎) and Ten=φn, n=0,1,⋯, and (e,T) is called a constructing pair for {φn} and T is called a constructing operator for {φn}. …”

Productive Capacities and the SDGs: Critical but Nuanced Relationships by David Tennant, Stuart Davies, Sandria N. Tennant, Patrice Whitely

“…Using panel data time series models, with Driscoll-Kraay adjusted standard errors, we examine how enhancing the eight elements of the Productive Capacity Index (PCI) impacts the SDGs. We find that each of the SDGs has statistically significant relationships with multiple elements of the PCI, and the results highlight areas in which productive capacity enhancements accelerate progress on one or more SDGs but can also be inimical to others, particularly to goals related to the environment and income inequality. …”

A Novel SHLNN Based Robust Control and Tracking Method for Hypersonic Vehicle under Parameter Uncertainty by Chuanfeng Li, Hao Wu, Zhile Yang, Yongji Wang, Zeyu Sun

“…The state feedback control strategy is adopted based on the robust guaranteed cost control (RGCC) theory, where the Lyapunov function is applied to get control law for nonlinear system and the problem is transformed into a feasible solution by linear matrix inequalities (LMI) method. In addition, a nonfragile guaranteed cost controller solved by LMI optimization approach is employed to the linear error system, where a single hidden layer neural network (SHLNN) is employed as an additive gain compensator to reduce excessive performance caused by perturbations and uncertainties. …”

Decentralized Adaptive Control for Quasi-Consensus in Heterogeneous Nonlinear Multiagent Systems by Jiaju An, Wei Yang, Xiaohui Xu, Tianxiang Chen, Bin Du, Yi Tang, Quan Xu

“…Based on local communication with the leader and between the followers, some innovative control protocols are put forward to adapt the control gains and coupling weights simultaneously and to steer the consensus errors to some bounded areas. In particular, two new inequalities are proposed to establish the Lyapunov-based adaptive controller design approach for quasi-consensus. …”
