A model describing Ising spins with short range interactions moving randomly in a plane is considered. In the presence of a hard core repulsion, which prevents the Ising spins from overlapping, the model is analogous to a dynamically…

We prove that every flat nonlinear discrete-time system can be decomposed by coordinate transformations into a smaller-dimensional subsystem and an endogenous dynamic feedback. For flat continuous-time systems, no comparable result is…
In this paper, we study the singularities of locally flat systems, motivated by the solution, if it exists, of the global motion planning problem for such systems, in the spirit of \cite{CE_14}. More precisely, flat outputs may be only…

The Newton-Raphson Controller, established on the output prediction and the Newton-Raphson algorithm, is shown to be effective in a variety of control applications. Although the stability condition of the controller for linear systems has…
In this paper, we establish two necessary conditions for a joint triangulation of two sets of $n$ points in the plane and conjecture that they are sufficient. We show that these necessary conditions can be tested in $O(n^3)$ time. For the…
Using the properties of differential flatness, a controllable system, such as a quadcoper model, may be transformed into a linear equivalent system via a coordinate change and an input mapping. This is a straightforward advantage for the…
Dynamical models are often corrupted by model uncertainties, external disturbances, and measurement noise. These factors affect the performance of model-based observers and as a result, affect the closed-loop performance. Therefore, it is…
