Algebras of Minimal Rank over Perfect Fields [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Let R(A) denote the rank (also called bilinear complexity) of a finite dimensional associative algebra A. A fundamental lower bound for R(A) is the so-called Alder-- Strassen bound R(A) 2 dim A \Gamma t, where t is the number of maximal twosided ideals ...

Uncertainty, Sensitivity, and Efficiency Analysis of a Hybrid Piezoelectric–Electromagnetic Energy Harvester

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Digitalization and emerging technologies are increasing the demand for wireless sensing and the Internet of Things (IoT), which provide opportunities for autonomous sources of electricity in the form of energy harvesting systems. This paper focuses on the challenges in hybrid piezoelectric‐electromagnetic kinetic energy harvesting systems that

Robust Position Control of an Electro‐Hydraulic Actuator via Metaheuristic Optimization of a Fractional‐Order PID Controller

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, a robust position control strategy is presented for a two‐stage electro‐hydraulic actuator system using a fractional‐order proportional–integral–derivative (FOPID) controller tuned by Kirchhoff's law algorithm (KLA). Electro‐hydraulic systems exhibit strong nonlinearities, parameter uncertainties, and external disturbances ...

Enhanced Control Strategies for Residual‐Vibration Suppression and Adaptive Tracking in Flexible Manipulator Under Unknown Bounded Disturbances

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a hybrid control strategy for flexible‐link manipulators that combines offline trajectory planning with adaptive tracking to suppress residual elastic vibration (REV) under unknown bounded disturbances. A rigid–flexible coupling dynamics model is first established using the floating‐frame method and Lagrange's equations ...

A Branch‐and‐Price Algorithm for the Symmetric Electric Traveling Salesman Problem

open access: yesNetworks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Electric Traveling Salesman Problem (ETSP) is a variant of the well‐known TSP in which an electric vehicle must visit a set of customers minimizing the total cost of its route. The vehicle is assumed to be equipped with a battery of limited capacity that may need to be recharged along the route.

Nonprofit Governance and Financial Stability: A Study of Government‐Funded Social Services

open access: yesNonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonprofit social service providers are essential in delivering vital services, often with public funding. This study adopts a contingency perspective to explore the relationship between organizational governance and financial stability in publicly funded nonprofit organizations. We use a combination of comparative multilevel analysis (CMA) and

Both density‐ and frequency‐dependent effects determine plant growth in a dune heath ecosystem

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
We tested the hypothesis that both density‐ and frequency‐dependent interactions play important roles in determining plant growth in a dune heath ecosystem at several levels of available nitrogen. Plant growth was measured using the pin‐point method in a five‐block experiment with four nitrogen levels.
