Frequency Response of Transmission Lines with Unevenly Distributed Properties with Application to Railway Safety Monitoring
Xiangyu Ni, Bill Goodwine
This paper proposes a method to quickly and efficiently compute the voltage and current along a transmission line which can be "damaged"; that is its electrical properties can be u…
Damage Identification for The Tree-like Network through Frequency-domain Modeling
Xiangyu Ni, Bill Goodwine
In this paper, we propose a method to identify the damaged component and quantify its damage amount in a large network given its overall frequency response. The identification proc…
Damage Modeling for the Tree-Like Network with Fractional-Order Calculus
Xiangyu Ni, Bill Goodwine
In this paper, we propose that a tree-like network with damage can be modeled as the product of a fractional-order nominal plant and a fractional-order multiplicative disturbance,…
Frequency Response and Transfer Functions of Large Self-similar Networks
Xiangyu Ni, Bill Goodwine
This paper focuses on computing the frequency response and transfer functions for large self-similar networks under different circumstances. Modeling large scale systems is difficu…
Controllability and Accessibility Results for N-Link Horizontal Planar Manipulators with One Unactuated Joint
Tan Chen, Bill Goodwine
This paper presents the accessibility and small-time local controllability (STLC) results for -link horizontal planar manipulators with only one unactuated joint. STLC is import…
