Coupled Clustering in Hierarchical Matrices for the Oseen Problem

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
Fluid flow problems can be modelled by the Navier‐Stokes or, after linearization, by the Oseen equations. Their discretization results in linear systems in saddle point form which are typically very large and need to be solved iteratively. We propose a novel block structure for hierarchical matrices which is then used to build preconditioners for the ...

Finite‐Time Disturbance Observer‐Based Nonlinear Robust Adaptive Control of Hydraulic Manipulator With Parameter Identification

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydraulic manipulators exhibit strong coupling, pronounced nonlinearities, and significant modeling uncertainties, which hinder high‐precision motion control. This paper proposes a finite‐time disturbance observer–based nonlinear robust adaptive control (RAC‐FTDO) framework enhanced by a physically consistent dynamic parameter identification ...

Views from the hill: Deer stalkers' perspectives on land‐use change in the Scottish Highlands

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Land‐use and wildlife management are changing globally as part of efforts to address contemporary environmental challenges. In the Scottish Highlands, the hunting—or ‘stalking’—of deer has entered a period of considerable flux primarily because of national policy changes to mitigate climate change and biodiversity loss.
