Dissipative solitons in pattern-forming nonlinear optical systems : cavity solitons and feedback solitons [PDF]
, 2005 Many dissipative optical systems support patterns. Dissipative solitons are generally found where a pattern coexists with a stable unpatterned state. We consider such phenomena in driven optical cavities containing a nonlinear medium (cavity solitons ...

Online identification and nonlinear control of the electrically stimulated quadriceps muscle [PDF]
, 2005 A new approach for estimating nonlinear models of the electrically stimulated quadriceps muscle group under nonisometric conditions is investigated. The model can be used for designing controlled neuro-prostheses. In order to identify the muscle dynamics

Backstepping controller design for a class of stochastic nonlinear systems with Markovian switching [PDF]
, 2009 A more general class of stochastic nonlinear systems with irreducible homogenous Markovian switching are considered in this paper. As preliminaries, the stability criteria and the existence theorem of strong solutions are first presented by using the ...
