The physical model of controlling chaos produced via modulating the current of semiconductor laser is presented under the condition of OPF. We find the physical mechanism that the nonlinear gain coefficient and linewidth enhance- ment factor of the laser are affected by OPF so that the dynamical behaviour of the system can be efficiently controlled. Chaos is controlled into a single-periodic state, a dual-periodic state, a tri-periodic state, a quadr-periodic state, a pentaperiodic state, and the laser emitting powers are increased by OPF in simulations. Lastly, another chaos-control method with modulating the amplitude of the feedback light is presented and numerically simulated to control chaotic laser into multi-periodic states.展开更多

However, most work is theoretical one but few are experimental. This paper presents theoretical and experimental studies of delayed positive feedback control technique using a flexible beam as research object. The positive feedback weighting coefficient is designed by using the optimal control method. The available time delay is determined by analyzing the maximal real part of characteristic roots of the system. A DSP-based experiment system is introduced. Simulation and experimental results indicate that the delayed positive feedback control may effectively reduce the beam vibration if time delay is appropriately selected.展开更多

Combining this with a unique result of Krisztin and Walther, we know that this periodic orbit is the one branched out from 0 through Hopf bifurcation. Using the normal form theory for delay differential equations, we show the same result under the condition that f ∈ C3(R,R) is such that f''(0) = 0 and f'''(0) < 0, which is weaker than those of Krisztin and Walther.展开更多

文摘To enhance the system damping,a permanent magnet set which served as an eddy current damper was added to the magnetic levitation positioning stage which consists of a moving table,four Halbach permanent magnetic arrays,four stators and displacement sensors.The dynamics model of this stage was a complex nonlinear,strong coupling system which made the control strategy to be a focus research.The nonlinear controller of the system was proposed based on the theory of differential geometry.Both simulation and experimental results show that either the decoupling control of the movement can be realized in horizontal and vertical directions,and the control performance was improved by the damper,verifying the validity and efficiency of this method.

文摘The positive Arctic-methane(CH_(4))feedback forms when more CH_(4)is released from the Arctic tundra to warm the climate,fu rther stimulating the Arctic to emit CH_(4).This study utilized the CLM-Microbe model to project CH_(4)emissions across five distinct Arctic tundra ecosystems on the Alaska North Slo pe,considering three Shared Socioeconomic Pathway(SSP)scenarios using climate data from three climate models from 2016 to 2100.Employing a hyper-resolution of 5m×5m within 40,000m^(2)domains accounted for the Arctic tundra's high spatial heterogeneity;three sites were near Utqiagvik(US-Beo,US-Bes,and US-Brw),with one each in Atqasuk(US-Atq)and Ivotu k(US-Ivo).
文摘In our consideration,a comparison between four different types of controllers for suppression the vibrations of the cantilever beam excited by an external force is carried out.Those four types are the linear velocity feedback control,the cubic velocity feedback control,the non-linear saturation controller(NSC)and the positive position feedback(PPF)controller.The suitable type is the PPF controller for suppression the vibrations of the cantilever beam.The approximate solution obtained up to the first approximation by using the multiple scale method.The PPF controller effectiveness is studied on the system.We used frequency-response equations to investigate the stability of a cantilever beam.We notified that,there is a good agreement between the analytical solution and the numerical solution.
