We propose a new algorithm for feedback nonlinear synthesis. The algorithm computes suboptimal solutions, with bounds on suboptimality, to the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation. For systems that are modeled with polynomials the computations can be done efficiently via semidefinite programming. To illustrate the strength of the proposed method, we computesmooth stabilizing feedback controllers for s
This paper deals with new forms of political mobilisation and participation in social media. The main focus is on the importance of social networks in providing a “media filter”, functioning as a kind of collective gatekeeper to spread news and information perceived as important, in contrast to the image of the single individual media consumer faced with an insurmountable mass of information. I ar
Fundamental issues on discovery and disclosure of evidence
Flame flashback from the combustion chamber to the premixing section is a major operability issue when using high H-2 content fuels in lean premixed combustors. Depending on the flow-field in the combustor, flashback can be triggered by different mechanisms. In this work, three flashback mechanisms of H-2/CH4 mixtures were visualized in an atmospheric variable-swirl burner using high speed OH* che
The European electric power industry has undergone considerable changes over the past two decades as a result of more stringent laws concerning environmental protection along with the deregulation and liberalization of the electric power market. However, the pressure to deliver solutions in regard to the issue of climate change has increased dramatically in the last few years and has given rise to
The performance of the ALICE detector in searches for new heavy stable charged particles in pp collisions is discussed in this paper Gluino R-hadron was chosen as an example of a candidate, and cross sections and kinematic properties were obtained from PYTHIA simulations for various gluino masses (100 - 500 GeV/c(2)) Detector response simulations for R-hadrons in the TPC acceptance (vertical bar e
Epidemiological studies reveal growing evidence that most cases of Alzheimer`s Disease (AD) likely involve a combination of genetic and environmental risk factors. Identifying and validating these risk factors remains one of the most critical scientific challenges. Several diseases appear to have strong implications for neurodegeneration leading to dementia. This risk encompasses different forms o
