Coherent Dual-Band Radar System Based on a Unique Antenna and a Photonics-based transceiver

The different twins A multilevel analysis of the positions of the Northern League and the Five Star Movement on the integration-demarcation dimension

According to several scholars, the politicization of issues connected to immigration and the European Union (EU) has generated a new cleavage that now structures political competition in Western Europe. Italy is an interesting case for studying this process, as two ‘different’ populist-Euros...

Induced Vibrations of Soft Robotic Manipulators for Controller Design and Stiffness Estimation

Soft robotic systems are primarily characterized by their low stiffness properties. However, for these high dimension nonlinear systems, it becomes increasingly difficult to define and estimate stiffness properties. This paper presents a methodology to estimate the dominant compliance of a soft&#...

Model-based compensation of rate-dependent hysteresis in a piezoresistive strain sensor

This paper is concerned with modeling of smart textiles, aimed at compensating their intrinsic nonlinearities. In particular, a new model is proposed to compensate for hysteresis and relaxation in strain sensors made of Electrolycra. These sensors are increasingly employed in emerging areas&...
