Neural network control design considerations for the active damping of a smart beam
In this study, possible options for the active damping of a smart beam with piezoelectric patches using neural network control algorithm, are presented. The algorithms used for the
control are Neural Direct Inverse and Feedback Linearisation (NARMA-L2). Additionally,
several possible modifications used for the purpose of improving the control, such as different
values of control gain or sampling time of the training data, as well as step-wise control are
tested
Drgania regularne i chaotyczne w procesach obróbki wibroizolowaną ręczną szlifierką
The paper is concerned with qualitative analysis of a non-linear model describing vibration of a vibration-isolated hand grinder. A discontinuous description of grinding forces is introduced, which accounts for the possible separation of the grinding wheel from the object during the process. Eight non-linear ordinary differential equations are obtained which describe dynamics of the system. Numerical analysis is done using methods of numerical integration and the Fast Fourier Transform. The influence of selected parameters on the character of vibration is studied and some measures are calculated which characterize the quality of the vibration isolation system.Praca dotyczy analizy jakościowej nieliniowego modelu, opisujący drgania wibroizolowanej ręcznej szlifierki.

The European Spallation Source neutrino Super Beam Conceptual Design Report
This conceptual design report provides a detailed account of the European Spallation Source neutrino Super Beam (ESSSB) feasibility study. This facility has been proposed after the measurements reported in 2012 of a relatively large value of the neutrino mixing angle , which raised the possibility of observing potential CP violation in the leptonic sector with conventional neutrino beams. The measured value of also privileges the oscillation maximum for the discovery of CP violation instead of the more typically studied maximum. The sensitivity at this oscillation maximum is about three times higher than at the one, which implies a reduced influence of systematic errors. Working at the oscillation maximum requires a very intense neutrino beam with an appropriate energy. The world's most intense pulsed spallation neutron source, the European Spallation Source (ESS), will have a proton linac operating at 5 MW power, 2 GeV kinetic energy and 14~Hz repetition rate (3~ms pulse duration, 4% duty cycle) for neutron production. In this design study it is proposed to double the repetition rate and compress the beam pulses to the level of microseconds in order to provide an additional 5~MW proton beam for neutrino production. The physics performance has been evaluated for such a neutrino super beam, in conjunction with a megaton-scale underground water Cherenkov neutrino detector installed at a distance of 360--550 km from ESS. The ESS proton linac upgrades, the accumulator ring required for proton-pulse compression, the target station design and optimisation, the near and far detector complexes, and the physics potential of the facility are all described in this report. The ESS linac will be operational by 2025, at which point the implementation of upgrades for the neutrino facility could begin

Decoherence in Neutrino Oscillation at the ESSnuSB Experiment
International audienceNeutrino oscillation experiments provide a unique window in exploring several new physics scenarios beyond the standard three flavour. One such scenario is quantum decoherence in neutrino oscillation which tends to destroy the interference pattern of neutrinos reaching the far detector from the source. In this work, we study the decoherence in neutrino oscillation in the context of the ESSnuSB experiment. We consider the energy-independent decoherence parameter and derive the analytical expressions for P and P probabilities in vacuum. We have computed the capability of ESSnuSB to put bounds on the decoherence parameters namely, and and found that the constraints on are competitive compared to the DUNE bounds and better than the current T2K and MINOS ones. We have also investigated the impact of decoherence on the ESSnuSB measurement of the Dirac CP phase and concluded that it remains robust in the presence of new physics
