Optimal periodic output feedback control: a continuous-time approach [PDF]
, 2007 : This paper addresses the problem of optimal static output feedback control of linear periodic systems. The proposed approach, which allows to deal with both stable and unstable open loop systems, relies on a continuous-time formulation of the control ...

Bioengineered Interfaces for Peripheral Nerve Sensory Restoration
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Half of amputees abandon their prosthetics for lack of feeling. This review charts the full path from peripheral nerve injury to restored sensation, through surgical, regenerative, noninvasive, and implanted approaches, and shows how injury type and interface material properties determine which strategy can deliver naturalistic feedback, and why ...
