This year I am helping us laugh and possibly learn by making one of my humorous books available to download for free in this year’s first six columns. The fourth book is Logical Thoughts at 4:00 am.

You’ll learn about instrumentation and valves. The article identifies the importance of positioners in fast loops. How first-principle dynamic simulations provide insights into compressor surge, ...

Thermalright LCD Control provides an easy-to-use interface for managing your Thermalright LCD display on Linux systems. The application features both a desktop GUI and a background service for ...

Abstract: The electro-hydraulic actuator (EHA) system generates a trajectory by transferring high force densities in the form of pressurized fluid flows to a hydraulic actuator. Moreover, the sliding ...

Abstract: Proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers play a crucial role in the aerospace industry, ensuring the safety, precision and reliability of various systems. These controllers ...

A sliding-mode control based on a prescribed performance function is proposed for discrete-time single-input single-output systems. The controller design aims to ...

Ballbots are versatile robotic systems with the ability to move around in all directions. This makes it tricky to control their movement. In a recent study, a team has proposed a novel proportional ...

One of the most common automatic control methods used in industry is the Proportional-plus-Integral-and-Derivative (PID) controller. Industrial controllers utilizing this technique are used for ...
