On the Synthesis of an Integrated Active LPV/FTC Scheme using Sliding Modes
(Elsevier, 2019)This paper proposes an integrated fault tolerant control scheme for a class of systems, modelled in a linear parameter-varying (LPV) framework and subject to sensor faults. The gain in the LPV sliding mode observer (SMO) ... -
Sediment addition and legume cultivation result in sustainable, long-term increases in ecosystem functions of sandy grasslands
(Wiley, 15 May 2019)Desertification of sandy grasslands is an increasing problem, with serious negative impacts on ecosystem functions. Sandy grasslands are fragile with low ecosystem productivity mainly because of the sandy soil structure ... -
Detecting Consensus Emergence in Organizational Multilevel Data: Power Simulations
(SAGE Publications / Research Methods Division of The Academy of Management, 2019)Theories suggest that groups within organizations often develop shared values, beliefs, affect, behaviors or agreed-upon routines; however, researchers rarely study predictors of consensus emergence over time. Recently, a ... -
Ocean acidification buffers the physiological responses of the king ragworm Alitta virens to the common pollutant copper
(Elsevier, 10 May 2019)Ocean acidification (OA) has the potential to alter the bioavailability of pH sensitive metals contaminating coastal sediments, particularly copper, by changing their speciation in seawater. Hence OA may drive increased ... -
Sea urchin reproductive performance in a changing ocean: Poor males improve while good males worsen in response to ocean acidification
(Royal Society, 24 July 2019)Ocean acidification (OA) is predicted to be a major driver of ocean biodiversity change. At projected rates of change, sensitive marine taxa may not have time to adapt. Their persistence may depend on pre-existing ...
