The perception systems for Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) and Lane Line Recognition (LLR) are foundational pillars for the safe and effective operation of Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) and fully autonomous ve...

Microgrids have emerged as an effective solution for integrating distributed energy resources, providing operational flexibility by their ability to operate in grid-connected and islanded modes. However, the high penetra...

Background and Aim: Ticks and tick-borne diseases (TBD) continue to pose a significant threat to livestock production and rural livelihoods in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The control of ticks has relied predominantly on th...

Abstract Grid-connected renewable energy systems with high penetration rates exacerbate frequency fluctuations in microgrids, making traditional control methods ill-suited for random source-load variations. This paper pr...

Abstract The deep reinforcement learning techniques offers a novel approach to real-time control for hybrid power flow controllers. This paper introduces a bus voltage optimization adjustment strategy, utilizing a Markov...

"Keeping the blood glucose levels within the safe range during meals and exercise still represents a major hurdle not only for patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D), but also for Artificial Pancreas (AP) systems. One of th...

We present a novel ultimate bound and invariant set computation method for continuous-time switched linear systems with disturbances and arbitrary switching. The proposed method relies on the existence of a transformatio...

Abstract Background Commercially-available microprocessor-controlled prosthetic knees are unable to fully replicate the biomechanical function of the missing biological limb. While powered prostheses have the capacity to...

Ants are essential components of ecosystems, playing critical roles in nutrient cycling, pest control, and soil health. Agricultural practices significantly influence ant biodiversity, yet studies on this subject remain ...

A procedure for obtaining the initial value of the costate in a regular, finite-horizon, nonlinear-quadratic problem is devised in dimension one. The optimal control can then be constructed from the solution to the Hamil...

In recent years, the advancement of artificial intelligence techniques has led to significant interest in reinforcement learning (RL) within the traffic and transportation community. Dynamic traffic control has emerged a...

Recent studies and industry developments indicate that modular autonomous vehicles (MAVs) have the potential to enhance transportation systems by offering vehicles with adjustable capacities en route. However, the practi...

ObjectiveLimestone water hazards in coal seam floors represent one of the two primary categories of mine water hazards in China. Limestone aquifers are generally characterized by abundant static water reserves and consid...

The performance of Photovoltaic (PV) power generation systems, using traditional Vector Current Controllers based on Proportional–Integral Action (CVC-PI), exhibits marked non-linearity and is strongly influenced by me...

Introduction. Three-phase pulse width modulation (PWM) rectifiers are widely used in modern power conversion systems due to their high efficiency, controllability, and ability to provide high-quality energy conversion. T...

"Stability results for time-varying systems with inputs are relatively scarce, as opposed to the abundant literature available for time-invariant systems. This paper extends to time-varying systems existing results that ...

Introduction. The stability of grid-connected inverters is critical for the integration of renewable energy into modern power systems. However, this stability is significantly challenged under weak grid conditions, chara...

Wheel-legged robots offer high mobility on flat terrain and adaptability in complex environments, yet achieving stable motion under uncertain ground conditions and during height variations poses significant control chall...

Assessment systems in higher education are typically described through scales, points, and formal procedures. However, can one understand what function assessment actually performs – supporting learning or administrati...

Abstract Building energy consumption is dominated by lighting and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, whose operation is often inefficient due to inadequate control strategies and unreliable occupa...

Nowadays, offshore renewable energy is seen more and more as an attractive alternative to onshore energy thanks to less space limitations and usually better weather conditions. However, the higher costs in installation a...
