An input constrained adaptive tracking controller is designed for flapping micro aerial vehicles, wherein the moving averaging filter is adopted to estimate the averaged states of the system. Specifically, in the outer loop controller, an observer is constructed to estimate the disturbances within the system. Moreover, the constrained thrust is designed to keep the frequency in a proper region so as to meet the requirement of average estimation. Then, a tracking differentiator is used to provide trackable trajectories for the inner loop. Subsequently, a new quaternion- based hybrid attitude tracking controller is designed which successfully deals with high-frequency noises and avoids possible chattering. As supported by mathematical analysis, the proposed control strategy guarantees the uniform ultimate boundedness of the closed-loop system, and it keeps the control torques within the permitted range to meet the application requirement. At last, numerical simulations are carried out to support the validity of the proposed controller, whose results are satisfactory even when the thrust and torques are saturated.

This paper addresses the problem of delay-dependent robust and reliable H-infinity static output feedback (SOF) control for a class of uncertain discrete-time Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy-affine (FA) systems with time-varying delay and actuator faults in a singular system framework. The Markov chain is employed to describe the actuator faults behaviors. In particular, by utilizing a system augmentation approach, the conventional closed-loop system is converted into a singular FA system. By constructing a piecewise-Markovian Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, a new H-infinity performance analysis criterion is then presented, where a novel summation inequality and S-procedure are succeedingly employed. Subsequently, thanks to the special structure of the singular system formulation, the piecewise-affine SOF controller design is proposed via a convex program. Lastly, illustrative examples are given to show the efficacy and less conservatism of the presented approach.

In this work, a method based on atomic force microscopy (AFM) approach-reside-retract experiments was established to simultaneously quantify the elastic and viscoelastic properties of single cells. First, the elastic and viscoelastic properties of normal breast cells and cancerous breast cells were measured, showing significant differences in Young’s modulus and relaxation times between normal and cancerous breast cells. Remarkable differences in cellular topography between normal and cancerous breast cells were also revealed by AFM imaging. Next, the elastic and viscoelasitc properties of three other types of cell lines and primary normal B lymphocytes were measured; results demonstrated the potential of cellular viscoelastic properties in complementing cellular Young’s modulus for discerning different states of cells. This research provides a novel way to quantify the mechanical properties of cells by AFM, which allows investigation of the biomechanical behaviors of single cells from multiple aspects.

In this work we introduce and describe optimal sets of survivable paths defined on an undirected simple graph G. An optimal set of survivable paths in G corresponds to a set of mesh-restored lightpaths in an optical network that minimizes the number of optical channels. We present several fundamental properties of optimal sets of survivable paths in G.
