A measure theoretic approach to linear inverse atmospheric dispersion problems

, 2015
Using measure theoretic arguments, we provide a general framework for describing and studying the general linear inverse dispersion problem where no a priori assumptions on the source function has been made (other than assuming that it is indeed a source,

From Biological Fractal Dynamics to Analog Fractional‐Order Circuits: A System Design Framework Based on Operatorization Thought

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fractional calculus, with its unique advantage in describing memory and nonlocal effects, has become a key tool for modeling nonlinear dynamic systems. Its integration with circuit systems has opened up a new paradigm for modern circuit design.

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

International 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 ...

Dynamic Performance Enhancement of a High‐Agility Hypersonic Mechanical System via a Learning‐Augmented Robust Control Architecture

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The design of control systems for high‐agility mechanical systems operating in extreme environments is a significant challenge in nonlinear dynamics. This paper addresses the complex dynamic control problem of a hypersonic interceptor, modeled as a multi‐input multi‐output (MIMO) mechanical system characterized by strong aerodynamic cross ...

An Approach for Computationally Efficient Yet Accurate Modeling of Vibrating Machines With Neidhart Springs

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate modeling of vibrating machines equipped with Neidhart springs is challenging due to the strong nonlinearities introduced by the elastomer–metal torsional elements and the constraints imposed by their kinematic arrangement. Multibody modeling methodologies for such vibrating machines are often computationally demanding, thus limiting ...

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

Nonprofit 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

New views of some invariants associated with the Cartesian 2D velocity gradient tensor

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Vorticity and divergence of horizontal flow are fundamental quantities in meteorology; both are linear functions of the four elements of the 2D velocity gradient tensor and both are formally unchanged under coordinate rotation. We explore four quadratic functions of the elements that are geometrically invariant in this sense, finding some novel ...

A Rank‐Based CUSUM Monitoring Scheme for Time Between Events and Amplitude Data

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monitoring time between events and amplitude (TBEA) data is critical in many applications, particularly in manufacturing, reliability engineering, and service operations. Yet, most existing TBEA control charts focus on a single quality characteristic and are typically developed under restrictive distributional assumptions.

High‐Order Sliding‐Mode control for MIMO Systems

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper extends Lyapunov‐based homogeneous high‐order sliding‐mode control to a class of uncertain non‐square multi‐input multi‐output (MIMO) nonlinear systems with a well‐defined vector relative degree. The considered systems admit a normal‐form representation with an uncertain but full‐row‐rank input‐gain matrix.
