Friction is responsible for several servomechanism limitations, and their elimination is always a challenge for control engineers. In this paper, model-based feedback compensation is studied for servomechanism tracking tasks. Several kinetic friction models are employed and their parameters identified experimentally. The effects of friction compensation on system response are examined using des...

Abstract The whole blood potassium concentration has shown the bimodal distribution in sheep, which has been classified into LK and HK types; HK allele is recessive to LK with a single gene inheritance. This polymorphism showed different behavior in different environment, which could be due to adaptation process. This research was conducted on the Zel and kermani breed research station, which...

A friction identification method in a frequency domain is proposed for a precision servomechanism. A nonlinear friction model including static, Coulomb, and viscous friction as well as Stribeck effect is considered in this paper. Friction models are formulated by using describing functions. Friction elements are estimated through the limit cycle analysis in a velocity control loop. A Butterwort...

An improved PID friction feed-forward compensation control based on segment friction model is presented for nonlinear friction perturbation problems of high precision optoelectronic tracking stable platform systems. From the view of engineering application, the friction characteristics of stable platform servo systems are considered, a simple and reasonable segment friction model is established...

Proteolytic cleavage of single-chain, high molecular weight kininogen (HK) by kallikrein releases the short-lived vasodilator bradykinin and leaves behind a two-chain, high molecular weight kininogen (HKa) reported to bind to the beta2-integrin Mac-1 (CR3, CD11b/CD18, alphaMbeta2) on neutrophils and exert antiadhesive properties by binding to the urokinase receptor (uPAR) and vitronectin. We de...

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) B cells have defects in apoptosis pathways and therefore accumulate in vivo. However, when removed from the patient and cultured in vitro, these malignant cells rapidly undergo apoptosis. Recent studies suggest that leukemia cell survival is influenced by interactions with nonleukemia cells in the microenvironment of lymph nodes, marrow, and other tissues. To ...

Hot ring rolling is a highly nonlinear, unsteady-state and asymmetry process which is affected by many parameters. The friction coefficient between the ring ,the driver roll and the idle roll is one of the problems, which has significant effect on the quality of final product. In this study, the effect of these two parameters on hot ring rolling was investigated based on a 3D coupled-thermo mec...

High-potassium diets can improve vascular function, yet the effects of potassium supplementation on ischemic stroke have not been studied. We hypothesized that dietary potassium supplementation would reduce ischemic cerebral infarct size by reversing cerebral artery hypertrophy. Six-week-old male stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) were fed diets containing 0.79% potassium (LK)...

In the Anderson model on Zd, we consider a sequence of its finite volume approximation Hk k and construct a set of sequences composed of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of Hk in the localized region I which converge to those of H simultaneously. For its proof, Minami’s estimate turns out to be important. This result implies that, in the localized region, each eigenfunction behaves almost ind...
