Messy Excel formulas are more than just an eyesore—they're harder to maintain. Every repeated cell reference and tangled ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new methodology for designing and implementing position control for permanent-magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM) systems. We utilize both a new function-based ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a dynamic piecewise linear model to represent dc transmission losses in optimal scheduling problems. An iterative procedure is proposed, where the linear cuts to ...

Piecewise Linear Functions (PWLs) can be used to approximate any 1D function. PWLs are built with a configurable number of line segments - the more segments the more accurate the approximation. This ...

A balanced diet and regular exercise are essential to protect the aorta. Aortic problems can cause severe chest or back pain and shortness of breath. The aorta is the largest blood vessel in the body ...

The myelin sheath is a protective coating around nerve fibers that helps electrical impulses move quickly. Damage to the myelin sheath can cause serious conditions like multiple sclerosis and Guillain ...
