In this paper we present the design of tow robust nonlinear controllers for two mechanical problems of rejecting disturbances such as eccentricity and friction compensation. In the eccentricity compensation problem, the considered disturbances are here assumed to be produced by eccentricity in mechanical systems and drives, the frequency and amplitude of this disturbance is unknown. The objecti...

For a vertex v and a (k−1)-element subset P of vertices of a graph, one can define the distance from v to P in various ways, including the minimum, average, and maximum distance from v to P . Associated with each of these distances, one can define the keccentricity of the vertex v as the maximum distance over all P , and the k-eccentricity of the set P as the maximum distance over all v. If k =...

The extrasolar planets discovered to date possess unexpected orbital elements. Most orbit their host stars with larger eccentricities and smaller semi-major axes than similarly sized planets in our own solar system do. It is generally agreed that the interaction between giant planets and circumstellar disks (Type II migration) drives these planets inward to small radii, but the effect of these ...

We show how the observable number of binaries in LISA is affected by eccentricity through its influence on peak gravitational-wave frequency, enhanced binary density required to produce LIGO observed rate, and reduced signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) for an eccentric event. also demonstrate these effects should make it possible learn about distribution formation channels counting as a function even ...

The eccentricity of a vertex is the maximum distance from it to another vertex and the average eccentricity ecc(G) of a graph G is the mean value of eccentricities of all vertices of G. In this paper we resolve five conjectures, obtained by the system AutoGraphiX, about the average eccentricity and other graph parameters (independence number, chromatic number and the Randić index), and refute t...

conclusions we found that ei and qp/qs ratio are significantly and positively associated and qp/qs ratio can be easily estimated by measuring ei in secundum type asd patients. background one of the inclusion criteria for applying atrial septal defect (asd) closing procedure is an increased pulmonary-to-systemic blood flow ratio (qp/qs). eccentricity index (ei) is associated with ventricular dys...

Based on astrometry from an orbit derived byHubble Space Telescope imagery, Charon’s orbital eccentricity has been reported to be in the range of 0.003–0.008. Solar and planetary tides are orders of magnitude too small to induce the reported eccentricity. This nonzero value, if correct, therefore indicates some significant forcing against the two-body tidal equilibrium value, which should forma...

We study eccentric equatorial orbits of a test-body around a Kerr black hole under the influence of gravitational radiation reaction. We have adopted a well established two-step approach: assuming that the particle is moving along a geodesic ~justifiable as long as the orbital evolution is adiabatic! we calculate numerically the fluxes of energy and angular momentum radiated to infinity and to ...

We survey the literature on the eccentricity sequence of a connected graph and make the following contribution. The eccentricity sequence of a graph G is the list of its eccentricities in non-increasing order. Two graphs G1 and G2 are co-eccentric when they have the same eccentricity sequence. Then, we say that G1 and G2 are co-eccentric mates. We characterize the eccentricity sequence of almos...
