We explain Jedlitschky's construction of monomial linearisation in his thesis and apply this to CU yielding a generalisation of Yan's coadjoint cluster representations. Then we give a complete classification of the resulting supercharacters,by describing the resulting orbits and determining the Hom-spaces between orbit modules.展开更多

Nonlinear characteristics of actuators make the control problem more challenging. A technique is proposed in this paper for global satisfactory control (GSC) of such processes with relay-type nonlinearity. An oscillatory control signal is injected into the nonlinear process; the amplitude and frequency of the oscillatory signal are designed to linearise the nonlinear process in the sense of harmonic analysis; and a state feedback controller is configured to implement GSC over the linearised process.

First, the estimation of the domain of attraction is given. Then, a design method to find a larger estimation of the domain of attraction is presented. In the process of design, nonconvex conditions are obtained, so a cone complementary linearisation procedure is exploited to solve the nonconvex feasibility problem. Two examples are given to illustrate the efficiency of the design method.展开更多

Dry matter production declined significantly with clipping. Especially, repeated cutting of high frequencies for the long term had a severe effect on dry matter production. However, N, P, and K amounts in dry matter production did not significantly decline because the concentrations of N, P, and K in the plants increased with clipping. Repeated cutting for long term is a reason why net primary production has been depressed in the most of upland areas of southern China.展开更多
