in recent years, it has become increasingly important to incorporate explicit dynamics in economic analysis. these two tools that mathematicians have developed, differential equations and optimal control theory, are probably the most basic for economists to analyze dynamic problems. in this paper i will consider the linear differential equations on the plane (phase diagram) and elements of nonl...

In this paper, damping of interarea oscillations using simultaneous coordination of static Var compensator (SVC) and power system stabilizer (PSS) is considered.  To be effective in damping of oscillations, the best-input signal of power oscillation damper (POD) associated with SVC is selected using Hankel singular values (HSVs), and right-hand plane zeros (RHP-zeros). The 4-machine-2 area...

This paper presents an experimental study on the use of visual servoing for robotic tracking and manipulation of targets moving on a plane. In this work, the image is acquired from the camera mounted on the end-effector of a 6 DOF industrial robot, so that the camera moves on a plane parallel to that of object motion. Using a PID visual controller to minimize the relative displacement between o...

objectives: the purpose of this study was to compare scapular kinematics during elevation phase of abduction, flexion, and scapular plane elevation phase between fifteen persons with shoulder impingement syndrome (sis) and thirteen persons without it. methods: values of scapular kinematics include scapular superior and lateral translations, upward rotation, external rotation, and posterior tipp...

With an increase in number of software defined network (SDN) deployments, and OpenFlow consolidating as the protocol of choice for controller-switch interactions, a need to analytically model the system for performance analysis is increasing. An attempt has previously been made in [1] to model the system considering both a controller and a switch as an M/M/1 queue. The method, although useful, ...

We propose a flexible and scalable architecture for a network controller platform used for OpenFlow. The OpenFlow technology was proposed as a means for researchers, network service creators, and others to easily design, test, and virtually deploy their innovative ideas in a large network infrastructure, which will accelerate research activities on Future Internet architectures. The technology ...

the control of fluidized-bed operations processes is still one of the major areas of research due to the complexity of the process and the inherent nonlinearity and varying dynamics involved in its operation. there are varieties of problems in chemical engineering that can be formulated as nonlinear programming (nlps). the quality of the developed solution significantly affects the performance ...

In this paper, distributed parameter process systems behavior is studied in frequency domain. Based on the dominant gain concept that is developed for such studies, a method is presented to control distributed parameter process systems. By using dominant gain concept, the location of open loop zeros, resulted from the time delay parameter in the process model, were changed from the right half p...

The present investigation deals  with the reflection and transmission phenomenon due to incident plane longitudinal wave at a plane interface between inviscid fluid half-space and a thermoelastic diffusion solid half-space with dual-phase-lag heat transfer (DPLT) and dual-phase-lag diffusion (DPLD) models. The theory of thermoelasticity with dual-phase-lag heat transfer developed by Roychoudhar...
