In this article, by using the neural-networks (NNs) separation and approximation technique, an adaptive scheme is presented to deliver the prescribed tracking performance for a class of unknown nonaffine switched nonlinear time-delay systems. The nonaf…

This article considers the problem of finite-time (FT) tracking control for a class of uncertain multi-input–multioutput (MIMO) nonlinear systems with input backlash. A modified FT command filter is designed in each step of backstepping, which e…

When a flexible link manipulator lacks a joint motor, how to use the remaining motors to achieve the control objective is a challenge, and the research in this direction is limited. This article presents a tip position control and vibration suppression…

This article investigates the event-triggered output consensus problem for a class of unknown heterogeneous discrete-time linear multiagent systems in the presence of unmodeled dynamics. The agents have individual nominal dynamics with unknown paramete…

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…
