Hybrid Adaptive Neural Network AUV controller design with Sliding Mode Robust Term

open access: yesInternational Journal of Maritime Technology, 2017
This work addresses an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) for applying nonlinear control which is capable of disturbance rejection via intelligent estimation of uncertainties. Adaptive radial basis function neural network (RBF NN) controller is proposed

The Discovery of a Twelfth Wolf-Rayet Star in the Small Magellanic Cloud

open access: yes, 2003
We report the discovery of a relatively faint (V=15.5) early-type WN star in the SMC. The line strength and width of He II lambda 4686 emission is similar to that of the other SMC WNs, and the presense of N V lambda 4603,19 emission (coupled with the ...

Label‐Free Sensing of Coronaviral Sequences via Kretschmann‐Configuration Reflectance Spectroscopic Ellipsometry: Sensitivity, Specificity, and Interfacial Effects

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Spectroscopic ellipsometry in the Kretschmann‐Raether configuration (KRSE) is employed to characterize a DNA‐functionalized platform for viral sequence recognition. By merging SE with surface plasmon resonance, KRSE outperforms conventional SE, achieving nanomolar targeting through resonance wavelength shifts (δλ) measurements. Its enhanced interfacial

Two‐Way Shape Memory Polymer Composite Gripper for Adaptive Robotic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A two‐way shape memory polymer (SMP) composite is developed with intrinsic shape‐changing capability driven solely by temperature, eliminating external actuation loads. Embedding the SMP in a low‐stiffness elastomeric matrix enabled reversible transformations during heating and cooling cycles.

The Mid-Infrared Period-Luminosity Relations for the Small Magellanic Cloud Cepheids Derived from Spitzer Archival Data

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper we derive the Spitzer IRAC band period-luminosity (P-L) relations for the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) Cepheids, by matching the Spitzer archival SAGE-SMC data with the OGLE-III SMC Cepheids.

Unlocking Two‐Photon Chiral Signatures in DNA‐Stabilized Silver Nanoclusters: Two‐Photon Circular Dichroism and Circularly Polarized Luminescence

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Chiroptical properties of DNA‐stabilized silver nanocluster (DNA)2​[Ag16​Cl2​]8+ are presented in linear and nonlinear regime. These water‐soluble, NIR‐emitting nanoprobes demonstrate exceptionally high two‐photon circular dichroism and circularly polarized luminescence brightness.

Bioactivities and ACE-inhibitory peptides releasing potential of lactic acid bacteria in fermented soy milk

open access: yesFood Production, Processing and Nutrition, 2021
This study was designed to evaluate the bioactivities such as β-glucosidase activity, α-galactosidase activity, and the growth behavior of the Lactobacillus cultures in soy milk medium. Ten Lactobacillus cultures were considered in this study.

SMC Based Bilateral Control

open access: yes2007 IEEE International Symposium on Industrial Electronics, 2007
Design of a motion control system should take into account (a) unconstrained motion performed without interaction with environment or other system, and (b) constrained motion with system in contact with environment or another system or has certain functional interaction with another system.

Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph slitless observations of Small Magellanic Cloud Planetary Nebulae: a study on morphology, emission line intensity, and evolution

open access: yes, 2003
A sample of 27 Planetary Nebulae (PNs) in the Small Magellanic Clouds (SMC) have been observed with the Hubble Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (HST/STIS) to determine their morphology, size, and the spatial variation of the ratios of bright emission
