Quantized-states-based adaptive control against unknown slippage effects of uncertain mobile robots with input and state quantization

An adaptive tracking design strategy based on quantized state feedback is developed for uncertain nonholonomic mobile robots with unknown wheel slippage effects. All state variables and control torques are assumed to be quantized by the state and input quantizers, respectively, in a network control environment. Thus, the quantized state feedback information is only available for the tracking control design. An approximation-based adaptive controller using quantized states is recursively designed to ensure the robust adaptive tracking against unknown wheel slippage effects where the quantized-states-based adaptive mechanism is derived to compensate for unknown wheel slippage effects, system nonlinearities, and quantization errors. The boundedness of the quantization errors and estimated parameters in the closed-loop system is analyzed by presenting some theoretical lemmas. Based on these lemmas, we prove the uniform ultimate boundedness of closed-loop signals and the convergence of the trajectory tracking error in the presence of wheel slippage effects. Simulations verify the effectiveness of the resulting tracking scheme.

Negative thermal expansion in NbF_3 and NbOF_2:A comparative theoretical study

Thermal expansion control is always an obstructive factor and challenging in high precision engineering field. Here,the negative thermal expansion of Nb F_3 and Nb OF_2 was predicted by first-principles calculation with density functional theory and the quasi-harmonic approximation(QHA). We studied the total charge density, thermal vibration, and lattice dynamic to investigate the thermal expansion mechanism. We found that the presence of O induced the relatively strong covalent bond in Nb OF_2, thus weakening the transverse vibration of F and O in Nb OF_2, compared with the case of Nb F_3.In this study, we proposed a way to tailor negative thermal expansion of metal fluorides by introducing the oxygen atoms.The present work not only predicts two NTE compounds, but also provides an insight on thermal expansion control by designing chemical bond type.     

分子刚度对膜锚定受体-配体结合动力学影响的理论与模拟研究

人体内大部分生物学过程都离不开细胞黏附.细胞黏附行为主要由锚定于细胞膜上的特异性分子（又称受体和配体）的结合动力学关系来决定.已有研究表明，特异性分子的结合关系受外力及细胞膜波动等多种因素影响.然而，特异性分子刚度对细胞膜锚定受体 配体结合关系的影响机制仍不清楚.近期关于新冠病毒强传染力的研究表明，特异性黏附分子刚度对病毒与细胞结合具有重要影响.该文通过建立生物膜黏附的粗粒度模型，借助分子模拟和理论分析来研究分子刚度在黏附中的作用.结果表明，始终存在一个最佳膜间距及最佳分子刚度值，使得黏附分子亲和力和结合动力学参数达到最大值.这项研究不仅能加深人们对细胞黏附的认知，还有助于指导药物设计、疫苗研发等.
