Verifications Of The Kalman Conjecture Based On Locus Curvature

The Kaiman conjecture is verified for certain transfer functions with only negative real poles and no numerator dynamics. The results are based on the off-axis circle criterion of Cho and Narendra and a consideration of the curvature of the Nyquist locus of the transfer function. Copyright © 1974, IEEE.

Verifications Of The Kalman Conjecture For Irrational Transfer Functions

The sufficient conditions for the Kalman conjecture to be satisfied given by Fannin and Rushing [1] are relaxed in such a way as to allow their approach to be applied to irrational transfer functions. Specific results for a class of systems containing transportation lag are presented. © 1975, IEEE. All rights reserved

Toward More Meaningful Laboratory Experiences in Digital Signal Processing and Digital Control

Digital Signal Processing and Digital Control Are of Utmost Importance for Electrical Engineering Students, for They Are Present in Many Aspects of Today\u27s Technical World. Complex Topics Like These Should Not Be Introduced into a Curriculum as a Crash Program but Taken as Steps in an Evolutionary Process. a Successful Example of This Evolutionary Process is Well Underway at the University of Missouri-Rolla.

Interdisciplinary Design Engineering Department: A Systems View, a Design Focus and Customizable Interdisciplinary Tracks

Graduates of traditional engineering programs are called on to fill a myriad of interdisciplinary design careers that are increasingly different than historical engineering jobs. These careers focus on complex problems and the importance of solving them quickly in order to be successful corporately and nationally, and demand the use of teams of interdisciplinary, people-and-process-intuitive professionals with special technical skills in engineering systems and engineering design. The students who will be needed to fill these jobs are different as well. They have grown up with computers, have seen that emerging technologies occur at the interface or outside the boundaries of traditional disciplines and are diverse in many ways beyond gender and ethnicity. National trends show smaller percentages of high school graduates are now choosing careers in engineering. In this paper we report on a fresh and innovative type of engineering department that will offer programs carefully designed to augment traditional departments and programs while providing the underpinning engineering design and systems skills to attract and create the engineers needed today. This new engineering department, called Interdisciplinary Design Engineering, will produce graduates who are experts in the process of designing engineering systems

Thermoelectric Cooled Expansion Cloud Chamber

The University of Missouri-Rolla cloud stimulation chamber is an expansion cloud chamber in which the interior walls are cooled by thermoelectric modules in synchronization with the cooling of the gas by expansion. To achieve the temperature uniformity required for the effective simulation of atomospheric processes the interior surface has been divided into 28 individually controlled areas. The chamber operating range extends from plus 40 degree to minus 40 degree C with cooling rates of up to 6 degree C/min in the upper two-thirds of the range
