A nonlinear system model of maneuvering target detection was introduced. To estimate offset angles of pitch and azimuth, relative velocity of missile and target, and distance information while detecting maneuvering target, extended Kalman filter algorithm was introduced. Simulations of nominal trajectory and extreme trajectory shows that the proposed system model and filter design approach can ...

Increasing evidence suggests that individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD) might feel rejected even when socially included by others. A psychological mechanism accounting for this response bias could be that objective social inclusion violates BPD patients' underlying implicit needs of "extreme" inclusion. Thus, this study investigated whether, during interpersonal exchanges, BPD ...

The generalized state space of a commutative C-algebra, denoted SH(C(X)), is the set of positive unital maps from C(X) to the algebra B(H) of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space H. C-convexity is one of several non-commutative analogs of convexity which have been discussed in this context. In this paper we show that a C-extreme point of SH(C(X)) satisfies a certain spectral condition on...

We determine the extreme points of the set of graph traces of norm one for any finite graph E satisfying Condition (K). We also describe an application to the space of tracial states on the graph C∗-algebra.

introduction long-term annual extreme climate events, especially temperature and precipitation, have generally been used as indicators for the assessment of climate change. one of the most changeable climatic variables in time and space is precipitation. there are great number of research papers focusing on extreme precipitation on global, regional and national scales have been written. the res...

Abstract: The structure of natural tornadoes and simulated analogs are sensitive to the lower boundary condition for friction. Three-dimensional numerical simulations of storms require a choice for turbulence parameterizations and resolution of wind near the lower boundary. This article explores some of the consequences of choices of a surface drag coefficient on the structure of a mature simul...

Climate is the most important factor which control desertification .In order to detect climate changes in desert zones, time trend analysis is applied to extreme indices in Kashan station using extreme climate index software (ECIS). Results show significant trends in extreme indices during the past decade 1995-2004 and the pronounced warming is associated with a negative trend in cold extremes....
