Purpose Aiming at the problem that quadruped crawling robot is easy to collide and overturn when facing obstacles and bulges in the process of complex slope movement, this paper aims to propose an obstacle avoidance gait planning of quadruped crawling robot based on slope terrain recognition....

A neural network-based robust adaptive control design scheme is developed for a class of nonlinear systems represented by input–output models with an unknown nonlinear function and unmodeled dynamics. By on-line approximating the unknown nonlinear functions and unmodeled dynamics by radial...

Chlortetracycline (CTC) is widely used in the livestock industry to promote animal growth and treat diseases. Effective actions should be taken to decrease the environmental risks associated with CTC-rich waste. Biochar produced by biomass waste shows great potential for organic contaminants...

This paper develops integral equation methods to the pricing problems of perpetual Bermudan options. By mathematical derivation, the optimal exercise boundary of perpetual Bermudan options can be determined by an integral-form nonlinear equation which can be solved by a root-finding algorithm....
