Finite-time distributed energy-to-peak control for uncertain multiagent systems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This paper investigates the finite-time distributed L2-L∞ consensus control problem of multiagent systems with parameter uncertainties. The relative states of neighboring agents are used to construct the control law and ... -
Finite-time l1-gain control for positive switched systems with time-varying delay via delta operator approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This paper is concerned with the problem of finite-time l 1 -gain control for positive switched systems with time-varying delay via delta operator approach. Firstly, sufficient conditions which can guarantee the l 1 -gain ... -
Flow characteristics and dynamic responses of a parked straight‐bladed vertical axis wind turbine
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019) -
FMI4j: A Software Package for working with Functional Mock-up Units on the Java Virtual Machine
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2018) -
FMU-proxy : A Framework for Distributed Access to Functional Mock-up Units
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The main goal of the Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI) standard is to allow simulation models to be shared across tools. To accomplish this, FMI relies on a combination of XML-files and compiled C-code packaged in a zip ... -
Formulation of a consistent crack width calculation method for reinforced concrete members
(Doctoral dissertations at University of Agder;no. 473, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Predicting crack widths in reinforced concrete structures is essential for Serviceability Limit State (SLS) Design. Crack widths that exceed a certain limit may impair the functionality of a structure, limit its use and ... -
Forward Kinematic Modelling with Radial Basis Function Neural Network Tuned with a Novel Meta-Heuristic Algorithm for Robotic Manipulators
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The complexity of forward kinematic modelling increases with the increase in the degrees of freedom for a manipulator. To reduce the computational weight and time lag for desired output transformation, this paper proposes ... -
Foundations of offshore wind turbines : A review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019) -
Four-Level Three-Phase Inverter With Reduced Component Count for Low and Medium Voltage Applications
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021) -
Fractional-Order Partial Cancellation of Integer-Order Poles and Zeros
(Chapter, 2022)The key idea of this contribution is the partial compensation of non-minimum phase zeros or unstable poles. Therefore the integer-order zero/pole is split into a product of fractional-order pseudo zeros/poles. The amplitude ... -
Frequency domain control based on quantitative feedback theory for vibration suppression in structures equipped with magnetorheological dampers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)This paper addresses the problem of designing quantitative feedback theory (QFT) based controllers for the vibration reduction in a structure equipped with an MR damper. In this way, the controller is designed in the ... -
From Rigid to Hybrid/Soft Robots : Exploration of Ethical and Philosophical Aspects in Shifting from Caged Robots to Human-Robot Teaming
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)This paper delves into the ethical, philosophical, and practical dimensions associated with the transition from caged robots to human-robot teaming (HRT). By exploring the evolving dynamics between humans and robots, this ... -
From Waste to Resource – Utilising Residue from Ready-Made Concrete as New Aggregate
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)A new admixture is available, to reduce the sludge produced from the cleansing of production and transportation equipment in the fresh concrete industry. The result is agglomerations of hardening concrete, that might be ... -
Full- and Reduced-order Model of Hydraulic Cylinder for Motion Control
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2017) -
Further Results on Mathematical Models of Vehicle Localized Impact
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2010)In this paper, we propose a method of modeling for vehicle crash systems based on viscous and elastic properties of the materials. This paper covers an influence of different arrangement of spring and damper on the models? ... -

Fuzzy modeling and control for a class of inverted pendulum system
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Focusing on the issue of nonlinear stability control system about the single-stage inverted pendulum, the T-S fuzzy model is employed. Firstly, linear approximation method would be applied into fuzzy model for the single-stage ... -
Fuzzy reliable tracking control for flexible air-breathing hypersonic vehicles
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)In this paper, we present a fuzzy reliable tracking control design method for flexible air-breathing hypersonic vehicles (FAHVs) subject to disturbances and possible sensor/actuator failures. This problem is challenging ...
