Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part I: Journal of Systems and Control Engineering, 221(6), 885-894. https://doi.org/10.1243/09596518jsce377

This paper illustrates some of the capabilities of previously proposed network control system (NCS) architectures to carry on functioning in the event of faults, without recourse to system reconfiguration. The principle of interaction prediction is u... Read More about An interaction predictive approach to fault-tolerant control in network control systems.

We have studied the effect of shape on the strain-modified electron/hole confinement potential in zinc-blende quantum dots (QDs), using standard deformation potential theory and an anisotropic continuum-elasticity approximation. Calculations were per... Read More about Importance of aspect ratio over shape in determining the quantization potential of self-assembled zinc-blende III-V quantum dots.

On natural frequencies and eigenmodes of a linear vibration system (2007)
Journal Article
Müller, P. C., & Hou, M. (2007). On natural frequencies and eigenmodes of a linear vibration system. ZAMM, 87(5), 348-351. https://doi.org/10.1002/zamm.200610319

For conservative linear chain-structured mass-spring vibration systems with n degrees of freedom, the conjecture of Mikota [1] on the natural frequencies is verified. In addition, the eigenvalue/eigenvector problem of a related square root matrix is... Read More about On natural frequencies and eigenmodes of a linear vibration system.

Downscaling of rain gauge time series by multiplicative beta cascade (2007)
Journal Article
