Modeling and parameter estimation for fractional large‐scale interconnected Hammerstein systems

Asian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper addresses the challenge of modeling and identifying large‐scale interconnected systems exhibiting memory effects, hereditary properties, and non‐local interactions. We propose a fractional‐order extension of the Hammerstein architecture that incorporates Grünwald–Letnikov operators to capture complex dynamics through multiple ...

Synchronization‐Performance‐Oriented Frequency‐Domain Iterative Learning Control for Wafer and Reticle Stages

Asian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The synchronization accuracy between the wafer stage and reticle stage in lithography is critical to overlay and critical dimension uniformity. Existing iterative learning control (ILC) methods indirectly optimize synchronization via time‐domain errors, failing to balance low‐frequency tracking accuracy and high‐frequency noise suppression ...

Reception Baseline Assessment and ‘small acts’ of micro‐resistance

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In September 2021, following the global COVID‐19 pandemic, the Department for Education introduced a national standardised digital Reception Baseline Assessment (RBA) for all English 4‐year‐old children. We analyse RBA and its associated Quality Monitoring Visits, as a further intensification of the new public management of early years ...

International student agency in academic self‐formation: Mobility as agency situated within knowledge structures

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract With growing attention to student agency in academic and policy discourse, international education has become a prominent context for examining how students navigate new cultural, academic, linguistic and social environments. However, much of this discussion attributes student agency to the ‘international’ aspect, while overlooking the ...

Contrasting roles of school and public libraries in lower primary pupils' reading

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Libraries represent an important institutional component of children's reading socialisation, yet their role is often treated as uniform despite substantial differences between school and public libraries. This study examines how visits to school and public libraries relate to pupils' reading attitudes, practices and self‐assessed reading ...
