Robust adaptive learning control for different classes of dissipative vehicle systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a methodology that leverages learning techniques and robust control theory to design an adaptive controller for a wide class of linear dynamical dissipative vehicle systems. In particular, learning ...
Infinite-dimensional LQ optimal control of a dimethyl ether (DME) catalytic distillation column
(
Elsevier
, 2012 , Article)
This contribution addresses the development of a linear quadratic (LQ) regulator in order to control the concentration profiles along a catalytic distillation column, which is modelled by a set of coupled hyperbolic partial ...
Interval Estimation in Lifetime Distributions Using Progressively Type II Censored Data
(
World Scientific
, 2022 , Article)
In this paper, we developed a method for constructing confidence intervals for the parameters of lifetime distributions based on progressively type II censored data. The method produces closed form expressions for the ...
Optimal control and duality-based observer design for a hyperbolic PDEs system with application to fixed-bed reactor
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2021 , Article)
This paper is devoted to the design of an optimal infinite-dimensional Luenberger observer combined with a linear-quadratic state feedback controller for a system of hyperbolic PDEs. The design is based on the duality fact ...
Quadratic problems with two quadratic constraints: Convex quadratic relaxation and strong lagrangian duality
(
EDP Sciences
, 2021 , Article)
In this paper, we study a nonconvex quadratic minimization problem with two quadratic constraints, one of which being convex. We introduce two convex quadratic relaxations (CQRs) and discuss cases, where the problem is ...
A hybrid LQP alternating direction method for solving variational inequality problems with separable structure
(
Natural Sciences Publishing Co.
, 2015 , Article)
In this paper, we presented a logarithmic-quadratic proximal alternating direction method for structured variational inequalities. The method generates the new iterate by searching the optimal step size along the descent ...
The Reliability, Validity and Normative Scores of the Bene-Anthony Family Relations Test for Use With Arab Children
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2021 , Article)
Background: The Bene-Anthony Family Relations Test (BAFRT) is one of the most widely used measures of family dynamics seen from a child's perspective. However, the most common issue surrounding this test is the lack of ...
Positron annihilation studies of the effect of gamma irradiation dose in polymers
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2003 , Conference Paper)
Positron annihilation lifetime (PAL) technique has been applied to study the effect of gamma irradiation dose on the structure of low-density polyethylene and polystyrene. The positron annihilation lifetime measurements ...
Electron irradiated low-density polyethylene studied by positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2003 , Conference Paper)
A study of the degree and rate of cross-linking of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) as a result of irradiation by high-energy electron beam has been performed using positron annihilation lifetime (PAL) technique. The PAL ...
The generalized trust-region sub-problem with additional linear inequality constraints-Two convex quadratic relaxations and strong duality
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
In this paper, we study the problem of minimizing a general quadratic function subject to a quadratic inequality constraint with a fixed number of additional linear inequality constraints. Under a regularity condition, we ...
