Resolving actuator redundancy: optimal control vs. control allocation
Ola Härkegård,S. Torkel Glad +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the relationship between optimal control design and control allocation when the performance indexes are quadratic in the control input and show that for a particular class of nonlinear systems, they give exactly the same design freedom in distributing the control effort among the actuators.

Why Johnny Can't Prove
TL;DR: The one sentence answer to the question in the title is that the ability to prove depends on forms of knowledge to which most students are rarely if ever exposed as discussed by the authors, and the paper gives a more detailed analysis, drawing on research in mathematics education and classroom experiences.

Finsler Active Contours
TL;DR: This paper shows that if one desires to add directionality in the conformal active contour framework, then one gets a well-defined minimization problem in the case that the factor defines a Finsler metric.

The Quest for the Optimum Longitudinal Fin Profile
A. D. Snider,A. D. Kraus +1 more
TL;DR: A review of the literature on the optimal profile for a longitudinal fin can be found in this article, where the authors provide some counterexamples with regard to the usual models, which indicate that fin of mathematically unbounded performance is theoretically (although not practically) achievable.
