Construction of Minimax Control for Almost Conservative Controlled Dynamic Systems with the Limited Perturbations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The problem is considered for constructing a minimax control for a linear stationary controlled dynamical almost conservative system (a conservative system with a weakly perturbed coefficient matrix) on which an unknown perturbation with bounded energy ...

Engineering Controllable Protein Degradation [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2006
Complex biological networks are regulated via alterations in protein expression, degradation, and function. Synthetic control of these processes allows dissection of natural systems and the design of new networks. In E. coli, the adaptor SspB tethers ssrA-tagged substrates to the ClpXP protease, causing a modest increase in their rate of degradation ...

Multiple input control strategies for robust and adaptive climate engineering in a low order 3-box model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A low-order 3-box energy balance model for the climate system is employed with a multivariable control scheme for the evaluation of new robust and adaptive climate engineering strategies using solar radiation management.

Responsibly Engineering Control

open access: yesAmerican Philosophical Quarterly
Abstract A number of concerns have been recently raised regarding the possibility of human agents to effectively maintain control over intelligent and (partially) autonomous artificial systems. These issues have been deemed to raise “responsibility gaps.” To address these gaps, several scholars and other public and private stakeholders ...

Engineering control into medicine [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Critical Care, 2015
The human body is a tightly controlled engineering miracle. However, medical training generally does not cover "control" (in the engineering sense) in physiology, pathophysiology, and therapeutics. A better understanding of how evolved controls maintain normal homeostasis is critical for understanding the failure mode of controlled systems, that is ...

Control of Surface Wettability via Strain Engineering

open access: yes, 2013
Reversible control of surface wettability has wide applications in lab-on-chip systems, tunable optical lenses, and microfluidic tools. Using a graphene sheet as a sample material and molecular dynamic (MD) simulations, we demonstrate that strain ...

Bacteria as Control Engineers [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2011
Bacteria encounter fluctuations in both their external and internal environments, and to manage these conditions, they employ various control mechanisms. In this issue of Molecular Cell, Hart et al. (2011) investigate how E. coli robustly controls nitrogen assimilation.
