Design and evaluation of an observer-based disturbance rejection controller for electric power steering systems
(SAGE, 2015-08-13)The goal of this paper is to develop an observer-based disturbance rejection electric power steering (EPS) controller to provide steering assistance and improve the driver’s steering feel. For the purpose of control design, ... -
Green Veblen effect: Sustainability in pollution management
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2023-05-01)We know that green products may initially exhibit a Veblen effect–demand increasing with prices–often followed by a decrease in price. The global understanding of these joint phenomena still needs to be improved, impeding ... -
Optimal Controller and Actuator Design for Nonlinear Parabolic Systems
(2019-10-08)Many physical systems are modeled by nonlinear parabolic differential equations, such as the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky (KS) equation. In this paper, the existence of a concurrent optimal controller and actuator design is ... -
When does eco-efficiency rebound or backfire? An analytical model
(Elsevier, 2021-04-16)It is known that an eco-efficiency strategy, which saves resources in the production process, may be offset by a rebound effect; it may even backfire. Less known are the exact conditions under which eco-efficiency rebounds ...
