Delay-Robust Nonlinear Control of Bounded-Input Telerobotic Systems with Synchronization Enhancement
Download2022-11-03
Amir Zakerimanesh, Mojtaba Sharifi, Farzad Hashemzadeh, Mahdi Tavakoli
This paper puts forward a novel controller for joint position tracking of bilateral teleoperation systems subjected simultaneously to time-varying communication delays and bounded actuation. Enhancing such systems’ robustness to the larger time delays comes prevalently at the cost of increased...

Abstract: The neutral theory of biodiversity has been criticized for its neglect of species differences. Yet it is much less heeded that S. P. Hubbell's definition of neutrality allows species to differ in their birth and death rates as long as they have an equal per capita fitness. Using the...

Dense water formation on the Icelandic shelf and its contribution to the North Icelandic Jet
Download2021-01-01
Garcia-Quintana, Yarisbel, Grivault, Nathan, Hu, Xianmin, Myers, Paul G.
The North Icelandic Jet (NIJ) is the densest component of the Denmark Strait Overflow Water, feeding the abyssal limb of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. Here, by using observational and numerical model data, we explore the formation of overflow water on the Icelandic shelf, the...

Density Conversion Factor Determined using a Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Unit NewTom QR-DVT 9000
Download2006
Carey, Jason, Lagravère, Manuel O., Major, Paul W., Fang, Y., Packota, Garnet V., Toogood, Roger W.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine a conversion coefficient for Hounsfield Units (HU) to material density (g cm−3) obtained from cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT-NewTom QR-DVT 9000) data. Methods: Six cylindrical models of materials with different densities were made and...
