Characteristics and Mechanisms of Spring Tidal Mixing and Sediment Transport in a Microtidal Funnel-Shaped Estuary

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Information about estuarine mixing and its control of sediment transport is crucial to elucidating the dynamics and evolution of estuaries. Here, the microtidal and funnel-shaped Zhenhai Estuary, located in the southwestern Pearl River Delta of China, is

The probability of being identified as an outlier with commonly used funnel plot control limits for the standardised mortality ratio

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology, 2012
Background Emphasis is increasingly being placed on the monitoring of clinical outcomes for health care providers. Funnel plots have become an increasingly popular graphical methodology used to identify potential outliers.

Input-Constrained Funnel Control of Nonlinear Systems

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Automatic Control
We study tracking control for uncertain nonlinear multi-input, multi-output systems modelled by $r$-th order functional differential equations (encompassing systems with arbitrary strict relative degree) in the presence of input constraints. The objective is to guarantee the evolution of the tracking error within a performance funnel with prescribed ...

Funnel-Based Control for Reach-Avoid-Stay Specifications

open access: yes2024 Tenth Indian Control Conference (ICC)
The paper addresses the problem of controller synthesis for control-affine nonlinear systems to meet reach-avoid-stay specifications. Specifically, the goal of the research is to obtain a closed-form control law ensuring that the trajectories of the nonlinear system, reach a target set while avoiding all unsafe regions and adhering to the state-space ...

Quintic refractive index profile-based funnel-shaped silicon antireflective structures for enhanced photodetector performance

open access: yesScientific Reports
Antireflection, vital in optoelectronics devices such as solar cells and photodetectors, reduces light reflection and increases absorption. Antireflective structures (ARS), a primary method by which to realize this effect, control the refractive index ...

Apparent Viscosity Direct from Marsh Funnel Test

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering, 2014
Accurate and simple techniques for measurement of fluid rheological properties are important for field operations in the oil industry. Marsh Funnels are popular quality-control tools used in the field for drilling fluids and they offer a simple ...

Asymptotic Tracking by Funnel Control with Internal Models

open access: yes2024 European Control Conference (ECC)
Funnel control achieves output tracking with guaranteed tracking performance for unknown systems and arbitrary reference signals. In particular, the tracking error is guaranteed to satisfy time-varying error bounds for all times (it evolves in the funnel).

The NEMA Device for Efficient Extraction and Rearing of Entomopathogenic Nematodes

open access: yesInsects
Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are valuable biological control agents and research models in agriculture and ecology. Traditional extraction and rearing methods for EPNs, such as the Baermann funnel and White trap, work well but have limitations in ...

Contributions to funnel control of multibody systems

open access: yes, 2022
Es stehen drei Aspekte des Themenkomplexes Ausgangs-Referenz-Verfolgung von nichtlinearen Mehrkörpersystemen mittels Feedback-Regelung im Mittelpunkt dieser Arbeit. Im ersten Teil wird ein strukturell neuer Ansatz zur Entkopplung und Darstellung der internen Dynamik eines Eingangs-Ausgangs-Systems entwickelt, womit die Gleichungen der internen Dynamik ...
