The Sense of Personal Control

1999
Some people attribute the events and conditions of their lives to their own actions, whereas others believe their lives are shaped by forces external to themselves, such as luck, chance, fate, or powerful others. The sense of personal control is the belief that you can and do master, control, and shape your own life.

Response of oscillation-controlled magnetic sensing

Journal of Applied Physics, 2006
In the oscillation-controlled magnetic sensing system, the dependence of the response on the gain of the feedback loop and the oscillation frequency is investigated. Two types of response were observed according to the gain of the feedback loop. In the first response type, referred to herein as type A, the oscillation starts when the oscillation ...

Control of contact via tactile sensing

IEEE Transactions on Robotics and Automation, 2000
We present our approach to using tactile sensing in the feedback control of robot contact tasks. A general framework, called tactile servo, is first introduced. We then address the critical issue of how to model the state of contact in terms that are both sufficient for defining general contacts and conducive to bridging the gap between a robot task ...

Age and the Sense of Control

Social Psychology Quarterly, 1995
Two large random-sample surveys of adults age 18 and over show high, stable mean levels of perceived control in the age range 18 through 50, followed by successive steps down in progressively older age groups. Physical impairment and low education account for much of the low sense of control-reported by older respondents. Education accounts for more of

My Only Sense of Control

2016
Having come from a broken home, I was verbally abusive to those who surrounded me at school, and I had very few friends to show for this. Now I understand the reason: At home I had no control and felt unsafe, scared and even vulnerable at times. I made sure that I did not have to feel like that at school by becoming a bully: I did not want others to ...

Control Of Welding Using Optical Sensing

SPIE Proceedings, 1988
Optical sensor technology for arc welding control is critically reviewed. The basic sensing and control problems associated with arc welding are presented with joint tracking as the primary emphasis. The problem of imaging of the weld area and design of optics is considered including the unique coaxial optical system.

Remote sensing for control of floods

1994
A technique for optimum control of flood protection reservoirs is presented. As optimization technique for real time flood control Dynamic Programming is proposed. Such optimum flood control has to rely on real-time flood forecasts. Deterministic flood forecasting models using remotely sensed data which are suitable for this purpose are discussed in ...
