ABSTRACT This article proposes a distributed resilient control framework to ensure consensus tracking for nonlinear heterogeneous multi‐agent systems (NHMAS) under aperiodic denial‐of‐service (DoS) attacks. First, a resilient observer is introduced to estimate the leader's state considering that not all agents have direct access to the leader's ...

In this paper, we develop a concise differential–potential framework for the functions of a generalized quaternionic variable in the two-parameter algebra Hα,β, with α,β∈R∖{0}.

The numerical evaluation of cauchy principal values of integrals by Romberg integration
The problem considered is that of evaluating numerically an integral of the form[Figure not available: see fulltext.] where the integrand has one or more simple poles in the interval (O,p). Modified forms of the trapezoidal and mid-ordinate rules, taking account of the singularities, are obtained; it is then shown that the resulting approximations can ...

Gradient‐ and Newton‐Based Unit Vector Extremum Seeking Control
ABSTRACT This paper proposes new methods for stable and efficient convergence in multivariable extremum seeking control (ESC) using sliding mode techniques. Inspired by classical sliding modes and finite‐time control, the approach integrates these ideas into gradient‐ and Newton‐based ESC schemes with sinusoidal perturbations.

ABSTRACT The safety verification of neural network (NN) controllers operating in uncertain environments characterized by unmodeled dynamics, nonlinearities, and time delays remains a fundamental challenge in robust control analysis. This article introduces a novel method, termed Keep‐Close, for analyzing the performance and robustness of uncertain ...

Privacy‐Preserving Data‐Driven Distributed MPC for Heterogeneous Nonlinear Multi‐Agent Systems
ABSTRACT Distributed model predictive control (DMPC) is a cornerstone for coordinating multi‐agent systems, yet simultaneously ensuring data privacy, handling unknown nonlinear dynamics, and managing heterogeneous constraints remains an open challenge.

Universal Confinement Length Governs Radical Depolymerization Kinetics in Nanoconfined Polymers
Analysis of PMMA depolymerization kinetics identifies a critical threshold under extreme nanoconfinement where segmental mobility saturation prevents further increases in depolymerization temperature. ABSTRACT Thermal depolymerization is typically studied in bulk, yet many systems involve polymers confined within nanoscale geometries. Understanding how

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Functional traits are expected to predict vital rates and performance outcomes because they mediate how organisms interact with the environment. However, trait‐based models often have poor predictive power for tree species survival and growth.

This study reveals how long‐term activation of jasmonic and salicylic acid signalling reshapes arthropod communities and plant fitness across seasons. By showing that induced defences generate contrasting outcomes and cascading trade‐offs across trophic levels, it challenges the assumption that induced resistance is uniformly beneficial in natural ...

State of the Field: Royal Studies and Court Studies
Abstract Monarchy, as the world's oldest and most enduring form of political organization, is an area that has attracted the attention of scholars from a range of disciplines. Two connected and complementary fields embody this interdisciplinary study of monarchy and monarchies: royal studies, which takes an all‐encompassing approach to monarchy, and ...
