Objectives To characterise the non-linear joint dose–response relationship of accelerometer-measured moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF, estimated as ...

Abstract: Positive systems, which are systems whose states are always non-negative, can have both positive linear and positive nonlinear approximations that are valid dynamical models in a prescribed ...

Frank Merle is used to confronting a messy world. He works on the mathematics of highly nonlinear systems—ones that respond in dramatic, unpredictable ways to even the smallest changes. It’s the same ...

This document provides a detailed explanation of the MATLAB code that demonstrates the application of the Koopman operator theory for controlling a nonlinear system using Model Predictive Control (MPC ...

Imagine standing on top of a mountain. From this vantage point, we can see picturesque valleys and majestic ridges below, and streams wind their way downhill. If a drop of rain falls somewhere on this ...

Abstract: The Takagi–Sugeno (TS) fuzzy control design method has been widely utilized for nonlinear system control due to its ability to approximate complex system behaviors. Traditionally, TS fuzzy ...

Nonlinear dynamical systems are systems that can undergo sudden shifts not due to changes in their state or stability, but in response to the rate at which external conditions or parameters change.
