On the estimation of swimming and flying forces from wake measurements [PDF]
The transfer of momentum from an animal to fluid in its wake is fundamental to many swimming and flying modes of locomotion. Hence, properties of the wake are commonly studied in experiments to infer the magnitude and direction of locomotive forces ...

Optimal Design of Tuned Mass-Damper-Inerter for Structure with Uncertain-but-Bounded Parameter
In this study we focus on the H∞ optimization of a tuned mass damper inerter (TMDI), which is implemented on an harmonically forced structure of a single degree of freedom in the presence of stiffness uncertainty. Posed as a min-max optimization problem,
