This article focuses on flexible single-link manipulators (FSLMs) under boundary control and in-domain control. The actuators of the system include the dc motor at the end of the joint and $m$ piezoelectric controllers installed at the flexible link,…
Presents a listing of the editorial board, board of governors, current staff, committee members, and/or society editors for this issue of the publication.
The fault detection (FD) problem for systems with both model uncertainty and external disturbance is investigated in this article. First, the mathematical models of systems with model uncertainty and disturbance, systems with additive faults, and syste…
Prospective authors are requested to submit new, unpublished manuscripts for inclusion in the upcoming event described in this call for papers.
Due to the high resistance/reactance (R/X) ratio of a low-voltage microgrid (LVMG), virtual complex impedance-based $P-dot {V}/Q-omega $ droop control is adopted in this article as the primary control (PC) technique for stabilizing the system. A dist…
This article proposes a dynamic gain approach for investigating the leader–follower consensus problem of nonlinear multiagent systems with both distributed delays and discrete delays. It is assumed that each agent is in the strict-feedback form …
This article proposes a hierarchical multiobjective heuristic (HMOH) to optimize printed-circuit board assembly (PCBA) in a single beam-head surface mounter. The beam-head surface mounter is the core facility in a high-mix and low-volume PCBA line. How…
In the era of multimedia and Internet, the quick response (QR) code helps people obtain information from offline to online quickly. However, the QR code is often limited in many scenarios because of its random and dull appearance. Therefore, this artic…
