Commutativity of time-varying systems
Electronics Letters, 1977 Results are given concerning the commutativity of time-varying systems. It is shown that a constant-parameter dynamic system does not commute with a time-varying dynamic system. Conditions are derived for low-order time-varying systems to commute. A general condition for a set of time-varying systems to commute is the existence of a variable time ...

Geoprocessing Journey-to-Work Data: Delineating Commuting Regions in Dalarna, Sweden
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2012 Delineation of commuting regions has always been based on statistical units, often municipalities or wards. However, using these units has certain disadvantages as their land areas differ considerably.

Open system model for quantum dynamical maps with classical noise and corresponding master equations
, 2017 We show how random unitary dynamics arise from the coupling of an open quantum system to a static environment. Subsequently, we derive a master equation for the reduced system random unitary dynamics and study three specific cases: commuting system and ...

Robust Control Using a Matrix Converter to Enhance Wind Turbine Systems
Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.This study uses a more efficient and effective solution to improve the operational performance of a wind turbine‐based power system. This system uses a doubly fed induction generator and relies on a matrix converter and fractional‐order proportional–integral controller.

It is all about social norms: Gender differences in commuting times in Brazilian cities
Revista Brasileira de Estudos Regionais e UrbanosBased on a sample of 34,834 heterosexual couples living in Brazilian metropolitan regions, we verify econometrically the existence of a gender differential in the time spent commuting to work and the role of the division of domestic tasks.
