Journal Article
Patton, R. J., Kambhampati, C., Casavola, A., Zhang, P., Ding, S., & Sauter, D. (2007). A generic strategy for fault-tolerance in control systems distributed over a network. European journal of control / EUCA, European Control Association, 13(2-3), 280-296. https://doi.org/10.3166/ejc.13.280-296

This paper provides a tutorial overview, of a number of aspects and approaches to Control over the Network for Network Control Systems (NCS) that are likely to lead to good fault-tolerant control properties, subject to network faults. In order to ana... Read More about A generic strategy for fault-tolerance in control systems distributed over a network.

Journal Article
Rybchenko, S. I., Gupta, R., Lai, K. T., Itskevich, I. E., Haywood, S. K., Tasco, V., Deguffroy, N., Baranov, A. N., & Tournié, E. (2007). Conduction-band crossover induced by misfit strain in InSb/GaSb self-assembled quantum dots. Physical review B: Condensed matter and materials physics, 76(19), 0 - 0. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevb.76.193309

We address the occurrence of conduction-band crossover in III-V self-assembled quantum dots solely due to misfit strain. Band structure analysis in terms of standard deformation-potential theory shows that Γ-X crossover can occur in the dot, while bo...

Rain rate is a physical parameter that is only defined over some spatial or spatial-temporal integration volume. The moments of rain rate fields calculated from measurements derived from integration volumes of the same shape and a range of sizes are...
