one of the most important challenges in nonlinear, multi-input multi-output (mimo) and time variant systems (e.g., robot manipulator) is designing a controller with acceptable performance. this paper focused on design a new artificial non linear controller with on line tunable gain applied in the robot manipulator. the sliding mode fuzzy controller (smfc) was designed as 7 rules mamdani’s infer...

this study used the partial least squares (pls) approach to examine the effect of corporate reputation on the customer loyalty of the food and beverages industry in nigeria. the data for this study were collected from the customers in kano state nigeria. out of 250 distributed questionnaires, 212 usable questionnaires were returned. before examining the effect of corporate reputation on the cus...

An on-line condition monitoring method for transmission line is proposed using electrical circuit theory and IT technology in this paper. It is reasonable that the circuit parameters such as resistance (R), inductance (L), conductance (g) and capacitance (C) of a transmission line expose the electrical conditions and physical state of the line. Those parameters can be calculated from the linear...

This study set out to explore the impact of three levels of task planning on the accuracy of task-based oral performance with narrative task types among sixty Iranian sophomores majoring in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) at Islamic Azad University – Tabriz Branch. It was hypothesized that simultaneous pre-task/on-line planning would lead to more accurate performance. To test the ...
