in this paper, a new robust controller based on geometric homogeneity and adaptive integral sliding mode is proposed for a class of second order systems. the upper bound of the system disturbances is not required. fully unknown parameters have been considered in the described model and its finite–time convergence to zero equilibrium point is proved. moreover, the controller is developed in the ...

the aim of the current review wasto study the existing knowledge about decision-making and to identify and describe validated training tools.a comprehensive literature review was conducted by using the following keywords: decision-making, emergencies, disasters, crisis management, training, exercises, simulation, validated, real-time, command and control, communication, collaboration, and multi...

Utilization is one of the main managerial factors that is applied for construction process analysis well. It directly affects the project duration and construction costs. Therefore, a utilization study in tunneling projects is essential. In this work, the utilization of an earth pressure balance Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) in Tabriz urban railway project was studied using the Monte Carlo simula...

large quantities of radiopharmaceuticals prescribed for treatment and diagnosis are excreted through kidney. therefore, radiation unwanted dose is created in kidney. as a result, exact calculation of prescribed radiopharmaceuticals amount is important. monte carlo method is used for simulation of radiation transport in body due to random nature of radiation. in this research, for the first time...

in this paper, reduced order proper orthogonal decomposition method has been used for simulation of unsteady incompressible flow fields. after projection of the governing equations along pod modes, a low-dimensional dynamical system is achieved. normally, standard low-dimensional models, due to some reasons, do not predict time variations of flow field accurately. accuracy of dynamical system h...
