Recycling of Thermoplastic Unidirectional Tapes: An Image‐Analysis Method for Measuring Residual Glass‐Fiber Length in Convoluted Fiber Clusters

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Development of a rapid, low‐cost method for measuring residual glass fibre length: samples are collected by tweezers, prepared via submersion, imaged with a flatbed scanner as a cost‐effective alternative to microscopy, and analyzed for fibre length independently of image acquisition.

A Simple Rheology‐Based Framework for Selecting Printing Parameters in Extrusion‐Based Hydrogel Additive Manufacturing

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
An open analytical framework converts standard rheological measurements directly into the complete extrusion field and slicer‐ready printing parameters for Piston driven printers, enabling rapid operational window of printability in direct ink writing without CFD or machine learning. ABSTRACT Predicting whether a gel formulation will print successfully

Ensemble reliability and the signal‐to‐noise paradox in ECMWF subseasonal forecasts

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We derive a general expression for the ratio of predictable components (RPC) in terms of correlation, spread–error ratio, and total variance ratio. Physical constraints on the admissible solutions (i.e., real‐valued and non‐negative variances) provide a mechanism to identify statistically paradoxical sample combinations of reliability and correlation ...

Propagation of internal gravity waves: Optimal vertical discretisation and grid design based on numerical error analysis

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
An energy‐conserving discrete framework for the vertical discretisation of stratified ocean models is developed using internal gravity‐wave theory. A β$$ \beta $$‐indexed family of schemes is analysed through perturbation theory, revealing optimal parameter choices and grid designs that reduce truncation errors significantly.

How Does Our Degrading System Perform?

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We discuss the quality of performance of degrading systems when degradation is modeled by a stochastic process with independent increments and increasing sample paths. As an example, the gamma process is considered. First, for the continuously observed degradation, by comparing with the black‐box scenario (without observing degradation), the ...

Adaptive Sliding‐Mode Control of a Perturbed Diffusion Process With Pointwise In‐Domain Actuation

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A sliding mode–based adaptive control law is proposed for a class of diffusion processes featuring a spatially‐varying uncertain diffusivity and equipped with several point‐wise actuators located at the two boundaries of the spatial domain as well as in its interior.

Optimal Homogeneous ℒp$$ {\boldsymbol{\mathcal{L}}}_{\boldsymbol{p}} $$‐Gain Controller

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonlinear ℋ∞$$ {\mathscr{H}}_{\infty } $$‐controllers are designed for arbitrarily weighted, continuous homogeneous systems with a focus on systems affine in the control input. Based on the homogeneous ℒp$$ {\mathcal{L}}_p $$‐norm, the input–output behavior is quantified in terms of the homogeneous ℒp$$ {\mathcal{L}}_p $$‐gain as a ...

Optimal Gain Selection for the Arbitrary‐Order Homogeneous Differentiator

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Differentiation of noisy signals is a relevant and challenging task. Widespread approaches are the linear high‐gain observer acting as a differentiator and Levant's robust exact differentiator with a discontinuous right‐hand side. We consider the family of arbitrary‐order homogeneous differentiators, which includes these special cases.

Discrete Implementations Modify the Intuition of Final Set Adjustment in Barrier Function Based Control

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper establishes an implementation‐aware framework for Barrier Function Adaptation (BFA) and shows that discrete‐time realizations fundamentally alter the logic of final‐set adjustment. In particular, sufficient conditions are derived to preserve the key benefits of BFA (predefined performance, gain adaptation with uncertain perturbation
