  2. Three dimensional (3D) percolation network structure: Key to form stable carbon nano grease

    Hammad Younes & Greg Christensen, Department of Material and Metallurgical Engineering, South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, United States; Lori Groven, Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, United States; Haiping Hong, Department of Material and Metallurgical Engineering, South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, United States; Pauline Smith, U.S. Army Research Laboratory, United States

    Nano grease is found to be stable and homogeneous (wherein carbon nanotubes act as sole thickeners and oil is polyalphaolefin (PAO)). This is a good indication that three dimensional (3D)... More

  3. A gradient descent control for output tracking of a class of non-minimum phase nonlinear systems

    Khalil Jouili & Naceur Benhadj Braiek

    In this paper we present a new approach to design the input control to track the output of a non-minimum phase nonlinear system. Therefore, a cascade control scheme that combines input–output... More
