In this paper, a chaos synchronization method via an invariant manifold approach is proposed. The essence of the method is that the error dynamics between the transmitter and receiver are pushed and forced to stay in the pre-selected invariant manifolds in which the error will converge to zero asymptotically. The well known input-output linearization method is used to discuss the design. Simula...

The authors ran a game-based simulation of an electric market with both an RPS and a cap-and-trade market greenhouse gas emissions allowances. High renewable energy shares reduced and shifted the output of therm units and pushed down both electricity and carbon pric The markets for renewable energy, carbon allowances, a spot and forward electricity interacted in complex wa that are relevant to ...

In many robotic applications, manipulation planning for an object free to slide on a surface is an import; oblem. Physical analysis of the object's motion is made difficult by the absence of information about 1 stribution of support of die object, and of the resulting frictional forces. This paper describes a n iproach to the analysis of sliding motion. The instantaneous motion of the object ca...
