Control and controllability of microswimmers by a shearing flow [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
With the continuing rapid development of artificial microrobots and active particles, questions of microswimmer guidance and control are becoming ever more relevant and prevalent. In both the applications and theoretical study of such microscale swimmers, control is often mediated by an engineered property of the swimmer, such as in the case of ...

Investigation of Aeroelasticity Effect on Missile Separation from the Internal Bay

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2023
There is a strong aerodynamic interference when launching the missile in the embedded mode. During the separation process, the carrier aircraft safety may be threatened due to large slenderness ratio, low structural stiffness, and aeroelasticity effects ...

A Numerical Investigation of Supersonic Combustion Flow Control by Nanosecond-Pulsed Actuations

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
The efficiency of supersonic combustion is largely dependent on inlet and injection parameters. Additional energy input is required in some off-design conditions, and nanosecond discharge actuation can be a solution.

Flow Rate Control by Means of Flow Meter and PLC Controller [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2021
This paper presents a design of a flow meter based on a programmable logic controller (PLC). The new construction of a flow meter controlled by PLC increases the possibilities for the control and automation of fluid flow. Additionally, the didactic potential of the use of simple automation in the form of a programmable logic controller was considered ...

Causality & Control Flow [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2019
Causality has been the issue of philosophic debate since Hippocrates. It is used in formal verification and testing, e.g., to explain counterexamples or construct fault trees. Recent work defines actual causation in terms of Pearl's causality framework, but most definitions brought forward so far struggle with examples where one event preempts another ...
