The letter describes the implementation of a phase-locking scheme described earlier to a 35 GHz Gunn solid-state source (SSS). The CLTF is developed, a loop filter is chosen and the response to a step disturbance is measured. ...

The Al-Au-Cu system and its associated ternary alloys and intermetallic compounds is surprisingly poorly known, and the authors could find no phase diagram for it in the literature. This article addresses this omission by ...

A crystalline linear combination of atomic orbitals approximation (LCAO) has been used at the density functional theory (DFT) level to study the adsorption of fluorobenzene on the Cu(110) surface. Adsorption energetics ...

The active/robust control of the longitudinal vibration response of the deck of floating-type cablestayed bridges induced by train braking and vertical moving loads has been investigated in this paper. Controlled objects ...

A novel adaptive backstepping design for a class of nonlinearly parameterized systems with a triangular structure is proposed. Under the Lipschitz condition with respect to unknown parameters of the system, an effective ...

A novel method which combines an optimised global path planner with a real-time sensor-based collision avoidance mechanism to accommodate for dynamic changes in the environment (e.g., people) is presented. The basic concept ...

The trivial equilibrium of a controlled van der Pol¿Duffing oscillator with nonlinear feedback control may lose its stability via a non-resonant interaction of two Hopf bifurcations when two critical time delays corresponding ...

In this study, the performances of GAC adsorption and GAC bioadsorption in terms of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) removal were investigated with synthetic biologically treated sewage effluent (BTSE), synthetic primary ...
