Improved Lyapunov-based decentralized adaptive controller

Creator:

Dai, Reza A.

Abstract:

An improved robot manipulator decentralized non-linear adaptive controller that performs well in the presence of disturbances with unknown parameters and non-linearities is presented in this work. The proposed decentralized adaptive structure is a modification of the controller developed by Seraji [13-17] and is characterized by an auxiliary signal that compensates...

Cavity resources in Oregon white oak and Douglas-fir stands in the mid-Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:

Gumtow-Farrior, Daniel L.

Abstract:

Previous studies of bird communities in the mid-Willamette Valley, Oregon, indicated that Oregon white oak (Ouercus garryana) stands supported more cavity-using bird species than sympatric stands of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii). Mature Oregon oak stands are being harvested and few are regenerating. I compared cavity availability for hole-using fauna among 10...
