determining the responses of floating structures at sea are the most important concerns in shipbuilding industry. in physical and dynamical principles a ship can be analyzed as a free elastic beam floating in sea without any supports. the analysis of corresponding dynamic equations are difficult and time- consuming, thus investigation on the behavior of floating structures can be done numerical...

This paper discusses the stabilization of Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy systems with bounded and time-varying input delay. The robust stabilization via state feedback is first addressed, and delay-dependent stabilization conditions are proposed in terms of LMIs. Observer-based feedback stabilization is also discussed for T–S fuzzy input delay systems without uncertainties. A separate design princip...

lag is a general term applied to coarse grained (> 2 mm), hard, but partially weathered rockfragments, which are concentrated at the surface through attrition of finer materials. based on morphology,mineralogy and the origin of lag from the cobar region of australia, lag may be conveniently grouped intothree broad morpho-mineralogical categories; (a) those with a rough, blocky, lithic morpholog...
