On generalized terminal state constraints for model predictive control [PDF]

open access: yesIFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2012
This manuscript contains technical results related to a particular approach for the design of Model Predictive Control (MPC) laws. The approach, named "generalized" terminal state constraint, induces the recursive feasibility of the underlying ...

Edge states in rationally terminated honeycomb structures

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2022
Consider the tight binding model of graphene, sharply terminated along an edge l parallel to a direction of translational symmetry of the underlying period lattice. We classify such edges l into those of “zigzag type” and those of “armchair type,” generalizing the classical zigzag and armchair edges.

Predictable uncertainty about terminal operations in the sea

open access: yesTransport, 2010
This paper considers a problem of planning short term operations in a bulk terminal faced by port management when making tactical decisions. Ship loading and discharging, cargo stocking, the maintenance and service of facility equipment are regular ...

Adaptive genomic evolution of opsins reveals that early mammals flourished in nocturnal environments

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Background Based on evolutionary patterns of the vertebrate eye, Walls (1942) hypothesized that early placental mammals evolved primarily in nocturnal habitats. However, not only Eutheria, but all mammals show photic characteristics (i.e.

Distributed Model Predictive Control with Asymmetric Adaptive Terminal Sets for the Regulation of Large-scale Systems

open access: yes, 2020
In this paper, a novel distributed model predictive control (MPC) scheme with asymmetric adaptive terminal sets is developed for the regulation of large-scale systems with a distributed structure.

Shot-noise in transport and beam experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Consider two Fermi gases with the same {\it average} currents: a transport gas, as in solid-state experiments where the chemical potentials of terminal 1 is $\mu+eV$ and of terminal 2 and 3 is $\mu$, and a beam, i.e., electrons entering only from ...

Active distribution power system with multi-terminal DC links [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A fast power restoration operational scheme and relevant stabilizing control is proposed for active distribution power systems with multi-terminal DC network in replacement of the conventional normal open switches. A 9-feeder benchmark distribution power

Terminal power control method of power line carrier communication network based on adaptive hash function

open access: yesDianxin kexue, 2023
In the control of network terminal power, due to the overall low analysis of network state, the adaptive regulation ability of communication network terminal power is poor.Therefore, the power line carrier communication network terminal power control ...

First Detection of Microcystin-LR in the Amazon River at the Drinking Water Treatment Plant of the Municipality of Macapá, Brazil

open access: yesToxins, 2019
Human poisoning by microcystin has been recorded in many countries, including Brazil, where fatal cases have already occurred. The Amazon River is the main source of drinking water in municipalities such as Macapá, where there is no monitoring of ...
