ABSTRACT: In this paper, we consider the monoid FixOCT( [ n ],D ) of all order-preserving full contraction mappings that fix a subset say D of a finite n -element chain { 1,2,⋯,n } . We characterize ...

AS Vice President Sara Duterte prepares to face her Senate impeachment prosecutors, the question people are asking is, why did the Marcos and Duterte families come together for no apparent reason in ...

Abstract: This paper proposes an improved finite-set model predictive control (FS-MPC) to reduce current ripples and balance the neutral-point voltage for grid-connected three-level voltage source ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. The unfortunate fact of the matter when it comes to car batteries is that, despite how innocuous some of their functions may seem, they're ...

A set is an unordered collection of objects. Typically, we use upper-case letters to denote sets, and lower-case letters to denote objects belonging to a set (though not always). We use \in to ...

Abstract: Discrete space vector modulation (DSVM) and weighting factor elimination have been investigated to improve the system performance of finite-set model predictive control (FS-MPC). However, ...

The cornea is a vital tissue of the human body. The health status of the cornea has a great impact on the quality life of person. There has been a great deal of research on the human cornea ...
