Background and Objectives Polytopic antigens are recently applied for replacing crude antigens, for control of infectious agents. The surface of the Toxoplasma is covered with immunogenic antigens namely surface antigens (SAGs). These antigens possess several immunogenic epitopes, inducing immune responses. Materials and Methods In this study, a DNA construct comprising of sequences encoding ...

This paper presents a design for model error compensator with parallel feedforward continuous- and discrete-time non-minimum phase multiple input output (MIMO) plants.

Our previous study proposed using particle swarm optimizatio...

In this paper, new separated delay-dependent H2 performance criterion is derived for a class of discrete timedelay systems. When used in robust synthesis for real polytopic uncertainty, it can rule out the technical restriction of using a single Lyapunov function to some extent, and therefore, lead to potentially less conservative linear matrix inequality (LMI) characterizations. The results ar...

The problem of designing H∞ dynamic outputfeedback controllers for polytopic Delta operator systems is considered. Given a transfer function matrix of a system with polytopic uncertainty, an appropriate, not necessarily minimal, state-space model of the system is described which permits reconstruction of all its states. To this model, a new polynomial parameter-dependent approach to state-feedb...

This paper studies robust local synchronization in multi-agent systems with time-varying parametric uncertainties constrained in a polytope. In contrast to existing methods with non-convex conditions via using quadratic Lyapunov function (QLF), a new criteria is proposed based on using homogeneous polynomial Lyapunov functions (HPLFs) where the original system is suitably approximated by an unc...

This paper presents applications of polytopic approximation methods for reachable set computation using dynamic optimization. The problem of computing exact reachable sets can be formulated in terms of a Hamilton-Jacobi partial differential equation (PDE). Numerical solutions which provide convergent approximations of this PDE have computational complexity which is exponential in the continuous...

Networked control systems (NCS) have recently received an increasing attention from the control systems community. One of the major problems in NCS is how to model the highly nonlinear terms caused by uncertain delays. A straightforward solution is to employ polytopic approximations. In this paper we develop a novel method for creating discrete-time models of NCS based on polytopic approximatio...

We consider face-to-face partitions of bounded polytopes into convex polytopes in d for arbitrary d 1 and examine their colourability. In particular, we prove that the chromatic number of any simplicial partition does not exceed d+1. Partitions of polyhedra in 3 into pentahedra and hexahedra are 5and 6-colourable, respectively. We show that the above numbers are attainable, i.e., in general, th...
