Computational micromagnetics in three dimensions is of increasing interest with the development of magnetostrictivesensors and actuators. <p>In solving the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation, the governing equation of ...

Hysteresis in smart materials hinders their wider applicability in actuators. In this report we investigate control of smart actuators through the example of controlling a commercially available magnetostrictive actuator. ...

Hysteresis exhibited by smart materials hinders their wider applicability in actuators and sensors. In this paper methods are studied for recursive identification and adaptive inverse control of smart material actuators, ...

The performance of the Adaptive RED scheme is susceptible to bursty web traffic. In this paper a parallel virtual queue structure is proposed for active queue management at the bottleneck router. Real time connections such ...

Hysteresis in smart material actuators makes the effective use of these actuators quite challenging. The Preisach operator has been widely used to model smart material hysteresis. Motivated by positioning applications of ...

The rate-dependent hysteresis existing in magnetostrictive actuators presents a challenge in control of these actuators. In this paper we propose a novel dynamical model for the hysteresis based on the work of Venkataraman ...

Hysteresis in smart actuators presents a challenge in control of these actuators. A fundamental idea to cope with hysteresis is inverse compensation. In this paper we study modeling, identification and inverse control of ...

Symplectic Runge-Kutta schemes for integration of general Hamiltonian systems are implicit. In practice the implicit equations are often approximately solved based on the Contraction Mapping Principle, in which case the ...

Hysteresis in smart materials hinders their wider applicability in actuators. The low dimensional hysteresis models for these materials are hybrid systems with both controlled switching and autonomous switching. In particular, ...

A distributed control approach is proposed for self-organization of autonomous swarms. The swarm is modeled as a Markov random field (MRF) on a graph where the (mobile) nodes and their communication/sensing links constitute ...
