this paper presents a gain scheduled autopilot for pitch channel of a flying vehicle. the selected method is based on polynomial fuzzy systems. the method does not involve linearization about operating point. first the polynomial fuzzy model of pitch channel of the flight body is derived. next, using polynomial fuzzy system methodology the controller is design such that the outputs of the nonli...

1 The PLL (Phase Lock Loop) can synchronize with a deterministic input wave or with a random input symbols. In the first case we have a WPLL (Wave Phase Lock Loop) and in the second case we have a SPLL (Symbol Phase Lock Loop. The WPLL (Wave Phase Lock Loop) is also known as WLL (Wave Lock Loop) or only PLL (Phase Lock Loop). The SPLL (Symbol Phase Lock Loop) is also known as SLL (Symbol Lock L...

The Brownian loop measure is a conformally invariant measure on loops that also satisfies the restriction property. In studying the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE), a quantity that arises is the measure of loops in a domain D that intersect both V1 and V2. If V1, V2 are nonpolar, and D = C this measure is infinite. We show the existence of a finite normalized quantity that can be used in its pl...

The problem discussed in this paper is the effect of latency time on the OGY chaos control methodology in multi chaotic systems. The Smith predictor, rhythmic and memory strategies are embedded in the OGY chaos control method to encounter loop latency. A comparison study is provided and the advantages of the Smith predictor approach are clearly evident from the closed loop responses. The comple...

In this article, the issue of attitude control and active vibration suppression of a nonlinear flexible spacecraft is assessed through piezoelectric patches as actuator and sensors. Two controller loops are applied: the inner loop, to make the panel vibration damped through piezoelectric patches; and the outer loop, to perform spacecraft maneuver using the reaction wheel acting on the hub. An o...

Objective: To study of relationship between alopecia areata and finger print dermatoglyphic types in 100 patients with alopecia areata and in 100 controls. Methods: A case control analytical study was done on fingerprints of patients with alopecia areata. The control cases were older than 50 years old without any history of alopecia areata. Dermatoglyphical trials of total fingers were al...

in this paper a new method is introduced and investigated for removing the destabilizing effects of time-delay parameter in control loops. the concept of the method is taken from the knowledge concerning the dynamic behaviour of irrational transfer functions (ir-tf), which is discussed and investigated elswhere in frequency response domain and is explained briefly here. ir-tfs, which are well c...

in this paper, controlling the gyros with linear plus cubic damping is considered. hence, an adaptive control algorithm is proposed to overcome the uncertainties in model parameters and the chaotic behavior of gyroscopes. it is noted that for general applications dynamic model coefficient of gyros is not precisely determined, on the other hand, with respect to a particular coefficient gyroscope...

in this study, the roll, yaw and depth fuzzy control of an au- tonomous underwater vehicle (auv) are addressed. yaw and roll angles are regulated only using their errors and rates, but due to the complexity of depth dynamic channel, additional pitch rate quantity is used to improve the depth loop performance. the discussed auv has four aps at the rear of the vehicle as actuators. two rule bases...
