Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Cartesian Regulator for an Ideal Position-Servo Actuated Didactic Mechatronic Device: Asymptotic Stability AnalysisGabriela Zepeda, Rafael Kelly, Carmen MonroyPosition-servo actuators are by themselves feedback mechatronics systems modeled by Ordinary Differential Equations (ODE). From a technological point of view, position-servos are based upon an electrical motor, a shaft angular position sensor, and a dominant Proportional controller. These position servo actuators are at the core of several real-life practical and didactic mechatronics and robotics systems. The contribution of this study … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 16 Sep 2022 · 5,821 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Empirical Study of Robust Modified Recursive Fits of Moving Average ModelsMohamed Ali Ismail, Hend A. Auda, Joe W. McKean, Mahmoud Mohamed SadekThe time-series Moving Average (MA) model is a nonlinear model; see, for example. For traditional Least Squares (LS) fits, there are several algorithms to use for computing its fit. Since the model is nonlinear, Fuller discusses a Newton-type step algorithm. proposed a recursive algorithm based on a sequence of three linear LS regressions. In this study, we robustify Koreisha and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 28 Jul 2022 · 5,859 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeveloping a Linear Quadratic Regulator for Human Lower Extremity Exoskeleton RobotSk Khairul Hasan, Anoop DhingraDuring the last two decades, exoskeleton robot-assisted neurorehabilitation has received a lot of attention. The major reason for active research in robot-assisted rehabilitation is its ability to provide various types of physical therapy at different stages of physical and neurological recovery. The performance of the robot-assisted physical therapy is greatly influenced by the robot motion control system. Robot dynamics are … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 23 May 2022 · 7,602 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFault-Tolerant Control of a Nonlinear Uncertain System: A Neural Network-Based Passive Approaches and Comparative Study with State-of-the-Art Control ApproachesSejal K. Raval, Himanshukumar Rajendrabhai Patel, Vipul A. ShahThis article suggests passive methods for designing Fault-Tolerant Control (FTC) for nonlinear uncertain systems with actuator and leak faults. To anticipate the Fault-Tolerant Control (FTC) action to overcome the actuator and leak faults, two-layer Feed-Forward Back-Propagation Neural Network (FFBPNN) and two-layer Cascade Forward Neural Network (CFNN) have been used, it will also tolerate external process additive disturbances. We employ the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 7 · 3 Aug 2021 · 6,736 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIRED: An Improved Active Queue Management AlgorithmSamuel Oluwatosin Hassan, Adewole Usman Rufai, Samson Ojo Ogunlere et al.Quality of Service (QoS) of Internet routers is still challenged with the issue of congestion. Active Queue Management (AQM) algorithms aimed at improving end-to-end delay of packets by keeping the average queue size small. This objective is yet to be fully accomplished, especially for interactive services. In this study, an AQM algorithm named Improved Random Early Detection (IRED) algorithm based … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 28 Mar 2022 · 6,597 accessesView PDF Cite

The journal has been selected to host the extended version of some selected papers presented during the 6th International Workshop on Design in Civil and Environmental Engineering (DCEE2017), held at the University of Cagliari (Italy) during November 2017. A summary of selected papers from highly ranked, international scientists can be … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 28 Aug 2020 · 5,737 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMulti-Level Image Thresholding via Nonlinear Fitting of the HistogramSalah AmeerThis paper proposes a novel scheme for multi-level image thresholding. The 1D cumulative histogram is curve-fitted to a polynomial of nonlinear basis function, the hyperbolic tangent (tanh). The thresholds are the positions of the minima of the first (odd) derivative of the fitting polynomial, since the histogram is the derivative of the cumulative histogram. The tanh function is considered as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 12 · 28 Dec 2019 · 7,533 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractState-Space Modelling of a Rocket for Optimal Control System DesignAliyu Bhar Kisabo, Aliyu Funmilayo Adebimpe, Odooh Clement Okwo, Sholiyi Olusegun SamuelIn this study, we present the derivation of the mathematical model for a rocket’s autopilot in state-space. The basic equations defining the airframe dynamics of a typical six-Degree-of-Freedom (6DoF) are non-linear and coupled. Separation of these nonlinear coupled dynamics is presented as lateral and longitudinal dynamic equations. The need to determine aerodynamic coefficients and there derivative components are brought to … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 25 May 2019 · 13,632 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolutions of the Duffing and Painlevé-Gambier Equations by Generalized Sundman TransformationDamien Kolawolé Kêgnidé Adjaï, Lucas Hervé Koudahoun, Jean Akande et al.A new approach using the generalized Sundman transformation to solve explicitly and exactly in a straightforward manner the cubic elliptic Duffing equation is proposed in this study. The method has the advantage to closely relate this equation to the linear harmonic oscillator equation and to be applied to solve other nonlinear differential equations. As a result, explicit and exact general … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 8 Nov 2018 · 7,251 accessesView PDF Cite
