TAKEOFF AND LANDING ROBUST CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A TANDEM CANARD UAV

2005

In spite of modern wide improvements in UAV’s technologies, a few number of such a vehicles is fully autonomous from takeoff to landing . So, either autonomous operation or operation with minimal human intervention is, actually, the primary design goal for the UAV’s researchers. The core of the problem is the design of the landing and takeoff control system. The objective of this paper is to design a control system in which the same state variables are controlled during both the descending/ascending path and the flare, tacking into account the actual ground effect. Robust control techniques are employed with the aim to cope with atmospheric turbulence, measurement noise, parameter variation…

Characters, bilinear forms and solvable groups

2016

Abstract We prove a number of results about the ordinary and Brauer characters of finite solvable groups in characteristic 2, by defining and using the concept of the extended nucleus of a real irreducible character. In particular we show that the Isaacs canonical lift of a real irreducible Brauer character has Frobenius–Schur indicator +1. We also show that the principal indecomposable module corresponding to a real irreducible Brauer character affords a quadratic geometry if and only if each extended nucleus is a split extension of a nucleus.

Erratum to “Separation of representations with quadratic overgroups” [Bull. Sci. Math. 135 (2) (2011) 141–165]

2011

Abstract In the paper entitled “Separation of representations with quadratic overgroups”, we defined the notion of quadratic overgroups, and announced that the 6-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebra g 6 , 20 admits such a quadratic overgroup. There is a mistake in the proof. The present Erratum explains that the proposed overgroup is only weakly quadratic, and g 6 , 20 does not admit any natural quadratic overgroup.

Segre, Klein, and the Theory of Quadratic Line Complexes

2016

Two of C. Segre’s earliest papers, (Segre 1883a) and (Segre 1884), dealt with the classification of quadratic line complexes, a central topic in line geometry. These papers, the first written together with Gino Loria, were submitted to Felix Klein in 1883 for publication in Mathematische Annalen. Together with the two lengthier works that comprise Segre’s dissertation, (Segre 1883b) and (Segre 1883c), they took up and completed a topic that Klein had worked on a decade earlier (when he was known primarily as an expert on line geometry). Using similar ideas, but a new and freer approach to higher-dimensional geometry, Segre not only refined and widened this earlier work but also gave it a ne…

Generalised Deformations, Koszul Resolutions, Moyal Products

1998

We generalise Gerstenhaber's theory of deformations, by dropping the assumption that the deformation parameter should commute with the elements of the original algebra. We give the associated cohomology and construct a Koszul resolution for the polynomial algebra [Formula: see text] in the "homogeneous" case. We then develop examples in the case of [Formula: see text] and find some Moyal-like products of a new type. Finally, we show that, for any field K, matrix algebras with coefficients in K and finite degree extensions of K are rigid, as in the commutative case.

An algebraic multigrid based shifted-Laplacian preconditioner for the Helmholtz equation

2007

A preconditioner defined by an algebraic multigrid cycle for a damped Helmholtz operator is proposed for the Helmholtz equation. This approach is well suited for acoustic scattering problems in complicated computational domains and with varying material properties. The spectral properties of the preconditioned systems and the convergence of the GMRES method are studied with linear, quadratic, and cubic finite element discretizations. Numerical experiments are performed with two-dimensional problems describing acoustic scattering in a cross-section of a car cabin and in a layered medium. Asymptotically the number of iterations grows linearly with respect to the frequency while for lower freq…

Techniques de construction traditionnelles et techniques romaines dans le théâtre d’Althiburos et les monuments de spectacle de l’Afrique Proconsulai…

2023

The contribution aims to study the relationship between the traditional construction techniques of the territories of Proconsular Africa and those imported by the Romans and used in the construction of entertainment buildings, in particular theaters and amphitheatres, also taking into account the importation of typological models, starting from the “case study” of the theater of Althiburos. During the 1st and 2nd centuries AD there is a gradual introduction of Roman construction techniques, such as the opus caemaenticium, especially in the construction of substructures and vaults, sometimes with the importation of urban models, of techniques but also of Italic workers (just think of the opu…

QuBiLs-MAS method in early drug discovery and rational drug identification of antifungal agents

2015

The QuBiLs-MAS approach is used for the in silico modelling of the antifungal activity of organic molecules. To this effect, non-stochastic (NS) and simple-stochastic (SS) atom-based quadratic indices are used to codify chemical information for a comprehensive dataset of 2478 compounds having a great structural variability, with 1087 of them being antifungal agents, covering the broadest antifungal mechanisms of action known so far. The NS and SS index-based antifungal activity classification models obtained using linear discriminant analysis (LDA) yield correct classification percentages of 90.73% and 92.47%, respectively, for the training set. Additionally, these models are able to correc…
