DOI: 10.1016/j.neucom.2018.05.039
Abstract: Abstract In this paper, a novel switching event-triggered synchronization scheme is established for chaotic networked control systems with different dimensions. First, a reduced-dimension observer is constructed to help the response system estimate all the states… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/jpr.2018.30
Abstract: Abstract For many practical situations in reliability engineering, components in the system are usually dependent since they generally work in a collaborative environment. In this paper we build sufficient conditions for comparing two coherent systems… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/polym14071383
Abstract: We studied the effects of silicon carbide (SiC) and SiC hybrid systems with different conventional fillers (silica, carbon black, graphene, hydrotalcite, halloysite) on the rheometric measurements, crosslink density, mechanical performance, aging stability, morphology, thermal behaviour,… read more here.
