We modeled the Zeta converter under continuous conduction mode operation. We derived a switching control law that brings the output voltage to the desired level. Due to infinite switching occurring at the desired level, we enhanced the switching control law by allowing a sizeable output voltage ripple. We derived mathematical models that allow one to choose the desired switching frequency. In practice, the existence of the non-ideal properties of the Zeta converter results in steady-state output voltage error. By analyzing the power loss in the zeta converter, we proposed an improved switching control law that eliminates the steady-state output voltage error. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated with simulation results.展开更多

In sharp contrast to previous works, the considered systems possess two important characteristics: (i) The uncertain nonlinear terms meet the linearly unmeasurable-states dependent growth with the growth rate being an unknown function of the input and output. (ii) There exist input matching uncertainty and unknown measurement sensitivity. By introducing a single dynamic gain and employing a cleverly devised event-triggering mechanism (ETM), we design a new gain-based event-triggered output-feedback controller, which globally regulates all states of the considered systems and maintains global boundedness of the closed-loop system. Furthermore, the estimation of input matching uncertainty achieves convergence towards its actual value, and Zeno behavior does not happen. Two simulation examples including a practical one show that the proposed approach is effective.展开更多

Two simulation examples including a practical one show that the proposed approach is effective.
文摘BACKGROUND:Pulse indicated continuous cardiac output(PiCCO)has largely replaced Swan-Ganz catheterization in shock patients.However,whether PiCCO monitoring can improve outcomes of shock patients,such as mortality,length of hospital stay,duration of mechanical ventilation,or laboratory parameters,remains unknown.METHODS:This retrospective cohort study included patients with shock in the intensive care unit(ICU)from January 2013 to January 2020.Patients were divided into PiCCO group and non-PiCCO group based on treatment with PiCCO monitoring or not.Demographic characteristics,Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation(APACHE)II scores,quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment(qSOFA)scores,14-day mortality,and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)levels at 0,1,3 and 7 days after onset of shock,duration of mechanical ventilation,length of hospital stay and hospitalization costs were compiled and analyzed using propensity score matching(PSM).RESULTS:Real-world analysis of 1,583 ICU patients suff ering shock after propensity score matching revealed that 14-day mortality did not differ between PiCCO and non-PiCCO groups(36.2%vs.32.6%,P=0.343).Duration of mechanical ventilation,hospital stay,and hospitalization costs were also similar between the two groups(P>0.05).No diff erences in changes of NT-proBNP levels on days 0,1,3,and 7 as compared to baseline were noted between the two groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSIONS:The results of our real-world indicate that PiCCO monitoring may not shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation,length of hospital stay,or reduce hospitalization costs,nor will it bring survival benefi ts to ICU patients suff ering shock.
文摘Owing to their high practicability,solar PV/T(photovoltaic/thermal)collectors have attracted considerable attention from researchers in both photovoltaic and solar-thermal fields worldwide.In this study,we designed and constructed a novel solar-cooled PV/T system.Through experimental methods,we conducted an in-depth investigation of its thermal and electrical output characteristics and developed mathematical models for both thermal performance and electrical performance.Finally,we validated the experimental data against simulations.The results demonstrate that the designed solar-cooled PV/T system exhibits excellent thermal and electrical output performance.The utilization rate of waste heat from the PV module’s back plate reached 18.59%,and the system’s electrical efficiency improved by 1.92%compared to a conventional PV/T system.This work provides theoretical and experimental guidance for the further optimization and improvement of the solar-cooled PV/T system.

文摘Stimulated emission and lasing of GaN-based laser diodes(LDs)were reported at 1995[1]and 1996[2],right after the breakthrough of p-type doping[3−5],material quality[6]and the invention of high-brightness GaN-based LEDs[7,8].However,it took much longer time for GaN-based LDs to achieve high power,high wall plug efficiency,and long lifetime.Until 2019,Nichia reported blue LDs with these performances[9],which open wide applications with GaN-based blue LDs.
文摘The paper presents an adaptive controller formulated for a class of nonaffine discrete-time systems with non-strict forms and unknown dynamics.The controller operates based solely on the measured output,thus obviating the need for knowledge of the physical order of the controlled plant.Utilizing an ideal solution and equivalent dynamics,the approach integrates an adaptive network with feedback and robust controllers to establish a closed-loop system.A learning law is derived under practical conditions of the designed parameters,ensuring effective closed-loop performance based on pure-output feedback.The controller’s effectiveness is validated through both numerical and experimental systems,with results meeting the conditions specified in the main theorem.Comparative analysis highlights the controller’s highly satisfactory performance and its advantages.This research offers a promising approach to adaptive control for discrete-time systems with non-strict dynamics,providing practical solutions for systems with unknown dynamics and indeterminate system order.

文摘Dear Editor,This letter investigates global stabilization of uncertain nonlinear systems via adaptive event-triggered output feedback.Uncertainties lie in both system nonlinearities and measurement sensitivity.To this end,a dynamic high gain is introduced to cope with the influence of large uncertainties,the unknown measurement sensitivity and the execution error,while a time-varying threshold event-triggering mechanism is constructed to effectively exclude the Zeno phenomenon.As such,the adaptive event-triggered control ensures globally bounded and convergent of system states.The design method is demonstrated using a controlled pendulum example.
