ABSTRACT: Essential oils are substances originated from plants in general.These compounds are well known LIPSTICK TULIP TIDE to have a high biological activity, specially the antioxidant and antimicrobial.Several extraction techniques are employed to obtain these substances.However, the majority of these techniques require a long extraction time.In
A sliding mode observer is presented, which is rigorously proven to achieve finite-time state estimation of a dual-parallel underactuated (i.e., single-input multi-output) cart inverted pendulum system in the presence of parametric uncertainty.A salient feature of the proposed sliding mode observer design is that a rigorous analysis is provided, wh
Spiders molt periodically before reaching full maturity, but several spiders continue to molt after sexual maturity.This post-maturity molting (PMM) behavior has been observed in the barn spider Araneus cavaticus (Araneae: Araneidae) among the orb-web spiders.In this study, we investigated molt-related changes in the ampulla and Stemware tail regio
Circularly polarized light was previously employed to stimulate the reversible and reconfigurable writing of scattering states in cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) cells constructed with a photosensitive layer.Such dynamic photodriven responses have utility in remotely triggering changes in optical constructs responsive to optical stimulus and appli
Subjects in laboratory settings exhibit straight hand paths-typified by the minimum jerk path-even in the presence of a learned but disturbing force field.At the same time it is known that in this setting, visual feedback strongly influences reaches, biasing them to be straight.Here we examine whether or not this bias can account for the straightne
