Revisit assignments of the new excited states with QCD sum rules
In this article, we distinguish the contributions of the positive parity and
negative parity states, study the masses and pole residues of the
1S, 1P, 2S and 2P states with the spin and
using the QCD sum rules in a consistent way, and revisit the
assignments of the new narrow excited states. The predictions
support assigning the to be the 1P state with

An updated determination of the pion-photon transition form factor
In this paper, we study the properties of the pion-photon transition form
factor (TFF), , by using the principle
of maximum commonality (PMC) to deal with its perturbative QCD contribution up
to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD corrections. Applying the PMC, we
achieve precise pQCD approximant for the TFF in large -region without
conventional renormalization scale ambiguity. We also discuss the power
suppressed non-valence quark contribution to the TFF, which is important for a
sound prediction in low and intermediate -region, e.g. the non-valence
quark components affect the TFF by about to when changes
down from to . The resultant pion-photon
TFF shows a better agreement with previous Belle data. It is hoped that
previous discrepancies between the experimental measurements and theoretical
predictions could be clarified by the forth-coming precise data on the Belle II
measurements.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figure
Adaptive Variable Structure Observer for System States and Disturbances Estimation with Application to Building Climate Control System in a Smart Grid
In order to reach the ambitious net-zero emission target by 2050, various technological solutions need to be developed to ensure efficient utilisation of energy. Commercial and residential buildings are a big source of greenhouse gas emissions, where efficient utilisation of energy can play a major role towards decarbonisation of the buildings sector. Heat pumps have recently emerged as an effective solution for space heating applications in buildings. Energy-efficient operation of heat pumps will make a significant contribution toward making buildings energy-efficient. In this context, heat pump control systems have a major role. Some of the existing literature on the heat pump control systems assume that various system states are available to measure. This may not always be true and/or economical to measure all the states. Moreover, the system is subject to various disturbances which cannot be directly measured. To reduce the number of sensors in heat pump control systems, an adaptive observer is developed in this paper to estimate inaccessible system states and disturbances simultaneously. An advantage of the proposed approach is that it does not require any bound on the disturbance itself, however, only assumes that
the rate of change of disturbance is bounded. This is always the case in practice. In the developed method, adaptive control techniques and variable structure control techniques are combined to implement the proposed observer. In order to estimate the unknown disturbance, an augmented systems model is considered. Globally uniformly ultimately bounded property of the error dynamical systems is established by suitably designing the adaptive laws. The developed method is applied to a model of the heat dynamics of a house floor heating system connected to a ground source-based heat pump. Different disturbance signals formats and amplitudes are considered to show the effectiveness of the proposed technique. Simulation results are given to demonstrate the suitability of the proposed method
Decentralised delay-dependent static output feedback variable structure control
In this paper, an output feedback stabilisation problem is considered for a class of large scale interconnected time delay systems with uncertainties. The uncertainties appear in both isolated subsystems and interconnections. The bounds on the uncertainties are nonlinear and time delayed. It is not required that either the known interconnections or the uncertain interconnections are matched. Then, a decentralised delay-dependant static output feedback variable structure control is synthesised to stabilise the system globally uniformly asymptotically using the Lyapunov Razumikhin approach. A case study relating to a river pollution control problem is presented to illustrate the proposed approach
Robust decentralised load frequency control for interconnected time delay power systems using sliding mode techniques
Based on a sliding mode control, a multi-area decentralised load frequency control power system with time-varying delays and non-linear perturbations is designed in this study. Due to the destabilising effect of delay on the global system, it is necessary to design a control system to accommodate vast time delays so as to manage the deviation in frequency and interchange power. By taking advantage of the system structure and disturbance bounds, robustness is improved. A sliding surface is designed, and the stability of the corresponding sliding motion is analysed based on Lyapunov–Razumikhin function. A delay dependent decentralised sliding mode control is synthesised to drive the system to the sliding surface and maintain a sliding motion afterwards. The obtained results are applied to a two-area interconnected power system to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method
Decentralised control for complex systems - An invited survey
© 2014 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd. With the advancement of science and technology, practical systems are becoming more complex. Decentralised control has been recognised as a practical, feasible and powerful tool for application to large scale interconnected systems. In this paper, past and recent results relating to decentralised control of complex large scale interconnected systems are reviewed. Decentralised control based on modern control approaches such as variable structure techniques, adaptive control and backstepping approaches are discussed. It is well known that system structure can be employed to reduce conservatism in the control design and decentralised control for interconnected systems with similar and symmetric structure is explored. Decentralised control of singular large scale systems is also reviewed in this paper
Sensor Fault Detection for Rail Vehicle Suspension Systems with Disturbances and Stochastic Noises
This paper develops a sensor fault detection scheme for rail vehicle passive suspension systems, using a fault detection observer, in the presence of uncertain track regularity and vehicle noises which are modeled as external disturbances and stochastic process signals. To design the fault detection observer, the suspension system states are augmented with the disturbances treated as new states, leading to an augmented and singular system with stochastic noises. Using system output measurements, the observer is designed to generate the needed residual signal for fault detection. Existence conditions for observer design are analyzed and illustrated. In term of the residual signal, both fault detection threshold and fault detectability condition are obtained, to form a systematic detection algorithm. Simulation results on a realistic vehicle system model are presented to illustrate the observer behavior and fault detection performance
