Nonlinear dynamics and bifurcations of an axially moving beam

TL;DR: In this article, the dynamic behavior of a simply supported beam subjected to an axial transport of mass is analyzed in the sub and supercritical speed ranges with emphasis on the stability and the global dynamics that exhibits special features after the first bifurcation.

Topological methods in surface dynamics

TL;DR: In this paper, a survey of applications of low-dimensional topology to the study of the dynamics of iterated homeomorphisms on surfaces is presented, and a unifying theme is the analysis and application of isotopy stable dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI

The dynamic microbiome.

TL;DR: This review will highlight key areas of investigation in the field, including establishment of the microbiota during early childhood, temporal variability of the microbiome in healthy adults, responses of the bacteria to intentional perturbations such as antibiotics and dietary changes, and prospective analyses linking changes in the microbiota to host disease status.

Estimation of Rotor Position and Speed of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors With Guaranteed Stability

TL;DR: Solutions to both problems, which are particularly tailored for the widely popular permanent magnet synchronous motors, are provided and Simulation and experimental results of the position observer, used together with a classical field-oriented control algorithm, are presented.

Open loop stable control strategies for robot juggling

TL;DR: Open-loop stable control strategies for a variety of juggling tasks are explored to provide insight into how open loop control can serve as a useful foundation for closed loop control and, particularly, what to focus on in learning control.
