In this paper an adaptive fuzzy decentralized
control algorithm for trajectory tracking of robot manipulators is developed. The proposed decentralized control algorithm allows the overall closed-loop system to be stabilized while making the tracking error to be uniformly ultimately bounded…

We report the creation of strained silicon on silicon (SSOS) substrate technology. The method uses a relaxed SiGe buffer as a template for inducing tensile strain in a Si layer, which is then bonded to another Si handle wafer. The…

Tennis is a sport that is characterized by intermittent dynamics, with intervallic moderate and high-intensity efforts due to repetitive actions of short-duration and high intensity. This review analyzes aspects such as the game's temporal structure, oxygen consumption, heart rate, lactate…
