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 ...

PID‐Like Robust Control of Non‐Minimum Phase Robotic Manipulators

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes an output‐feedback tracking controller for non‐minimum phase nonlinear systems with unknown uncertainties and external disturbances, where not all states are measurable, and the zero dynamics are unstable. The approach combines a backstepping‐based stabilizing state‐feedback law with a cascade extended high‐gain observer ...

Detection of Chatter in Machining Processes by the Multiscale Maximum Approximate Entropy and Continuous Wavelet Transform

Applied Mechanics
Chatter is a complex dynamic instability in machining processes and presents nonlinear and nonstationary behavior. Detection of this phenomenon before a catastrophic failure occurs has great importance in the industry today.

Monitoring of the BTA Deep Hole Drilling Process Using Residual Control Charts [PDF]

Deep hole drilling methods are used for producing holes with a high lengthto- diameter ratio, good surface finish and straightness. The process is subject to dynamic disturbances usually classified as either chatter vibration or spiralling. In this work,

The Trajectory of an Agreement: Tracing Objectivated Knowledge Across a Series of Mundane Encounters

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
This article adds to the sociological study of time and temporality in everyday life by building on recent longitudinal developments within conversation analysis. It investigates members' methods to bring about change within their shared (life) world. It examines how, as part of an extended project of action, one agreement made early on is continually ...

Suitable habitat of Himalayan wolf in Upper Mustang, Annapurna Conservation Area, Nepal

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Decades ago, the Himalayan wolf Canis lupus chanco, a genetically distinct sub‐species of the gray wolf Canis lupus, faced persecution by local communities in the Nepalese Himalayas. Recently, wolf populations have returned and recolonized, sparking concerns about conflicts over livestock depredation, and emphasizing the urgent need for comprehensive ...

Maximizing the detection probabilities of dusky grouse for population monitoring

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Despite its status as a game species in the western USA, rigorous monitoring of dusky grouse Dendragapus obscurus populations is limited. Obtaining an adequate number of observations for effective population monitoring of dusky grouse is challenging due to difficult‐to‐reach montane habitats, cryptic behaviors, and limited personnel, time, and funds at

Are human‐altered landscapes reshaping carnivore niche spaces in the Trans‐Himalaya?

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding carnivore interactions under growing human pressures is crucial for conservation. We examined spatial and temporal niche structuring among snow leopards Panthera uncia, Himalayan wolves Canis lupus chanco, and red foxes Vulpes vulpes; while also incorporating free‐ranging dogs Canis lupus familiaris as a human‐subsidized mesopredator ...
