On Hyperexponential Stabilization of Perturbed Unicycle Dynamics

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 1477-1486, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The problem of hyperexponential stabilization for a mobile robot is addressed by leveraging its kinematic model with external perturbations. To this end, a robust nonlinear control law is designed, and several state and time transformations are introduced, reformulating the system model to an interconnection of integrators.

On the Possibility of Driving the Electron Flux Probabilistic Models by the AE Index

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract We present the new probabilistic model of the electron fluxes designed to assess the risks of the spacecraft surface charging for missions with near‐equatorial orbits in the inner magnetosphere. It is a second model developed within a frame of the European Space Agency's activity “Plasma Environment Modeling in the Earth's Magnetosphere ...
