Collision-Free Trajectory Planning With Deadlock Prevention: An Adaptive Virtual Target Approach

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Most human-centred robotic applications require robots to follow a certain pre-defined path. This makes the robot's autonomous movements acceptable and predictable for humans.

A Method for Measuring the Quality of Graphic Transfer to Materials with Variable Dimensions (Wood)

open access: yesSensors, 2022
The transfer of graphics to a product’s surface is a widely known technology. Printing, engraving, and etching are used every day in production processes with countless types of materials.

Notions of controllability for quantum mechanical systems [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 40th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (Cat. No.01CH37228), 2002
In this paper, we define four different notions of controllability of physical interest for multilevel quantum mechanical systems. These notions involve the possibility of driving the evolution operator as well as the state of the system. We establish the connections among these different notions as well as methods to verify controllability.

Model Comparisons of Flow and Chemical Kinetic Mechanisms for Methane–Air Combustion for Engineering Applications

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The reasonably accurate numerical simulation of methane–air combustion is important for engineering purposes. In the present work, the validations of sub-models were carried out on a laboratory-scale turbulent jet flame, Sandia Flame D, in comparison ...

Reactive Mechanism of Cognitive Control System [PDF]

open access: yesCerebral Cortex, 2010
The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is thought to modulate the neural network state in favor of the processing of task-relevant sensory information prior to the presentation of sensory stimuli. However, this proactive control mechanism cannot always optimize the network state because of intrinsic fluctuation of neural activity upon arrival of sensory ...

Constraint Control of Nonholonomic Mechanical Systems [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nonlinear Science, 2017
We derive an optimal control formulation for a nonholonomic mechanical system using the nonholonomic constraint itself as the control. We focus on Suslov's problem, which is defined as the motion of a rigid body with a vanishing projection of the body frame angular velocity on a given direction $\boldsymbolξ$. We derive the optimal control formulation,

Multiple-Joint Pedestrian Tracking Using Periodic Models

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Estimating accurate positions of multiple pedestrians is a critical task in robotics and autonomous cars. We propose a tracker based on typical human motion patterns to track multiple pedestrians.

Simulation of Sorption-Enhanced Steam Methane Reforming over Ni-Based Catalyst in a Pressurized Dual Fluidized Bed Reactor

open access: yesInorganics, 2023
Steam methane reforming is a major method of hydrogen production. However, this method usually suffers from low energy efficiency and high carbon-emission intensity. To solve this issue, a novel steam-methane-reforming process over a Ni-based catalyst in

Phthalates Concentration in House Dust of Kozani City (Greece): Exposure Estimation and Their Association with Building Characteristics

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Phthalates can be found in personal care products as solvents and plasticizers in various polymers, especially PVC, wall coverings, certain paints, vinyl floor coverings, electronic devices, medical devices, food packages, toys, cables and other products.

A Probabilistic Model for Real-Time Semantic Prediction of Human Motion Intentions from RGBD-Data

open access: yesSensors, 2021
For robots to execute their navigation tasks both fast and safely in the presence of humans, it is necessary to make predictions about the route those humans intend to follow.
