A man pays a fixed rate to repair his refrigerator but gets endless delays, false diagnoses, and a canceled service visit.

Abstract: This paper presents an extended gradient-based optimization framework for optimal control problems governed by general conformable fractional derivatives (GCFDs), which unify various ...

Abstract: This letter proposes an algorithm for solving finite-time nonlinear optimal control problems. The proposed method employs the Gauss pseudospectral method to transform the optimal control ...

Cynthia Alviso’s new Frigidaire wall oven fluctuates between 35 degrees below and 60 degrees above its set temperature, ruining her baked goods. Despite four repair attempts, it’s still broken.

The effect of soil-structure interaction (SSI) on the dynamic responses of seismically isolated three-span continuous reinforced concrete (RC) bridge is investigated. Also, tuned mass damper(s) (TMD/s ...
