Composite state variable based nonlinear backstepping design for the underactuated TORA system

A nonlinear vibration controller is proposed for the translational oscillators with rotating actuator (TORA) system with the recursive technology. A composite state variable (CSV) is defined for the TORA system to start the recursive process. The design procedure treats the some state variables as virtual control inputs to design the virtual controllers step by step until the nonlinear vibration controller is obtained. The system stability is studied via a stability theorem and simulation results show the validity of the proposed controller

Nonlinear backstepping design for the underactuated TORA system

The nonlinear feedback cascade model of the underactuated translational oscillators with rotating actuator is obtained through a collocated partial feedback linearization and a global change of coordinates. A nonlinear controller is designed with the backsteping technology, which treats the state variables as virtual control inputs to design the virtual controllers step by step. The system stability is proved with the Lyapunov stability theorem. The simulation results show the system under any initial states can be asymptotically stabilized to the origin and the controller has a good control performance

Adaptive Control of Chaos in Chua's Circuit

A feedback control method and an adaptive feedback control method are proposed for Chua's circuit chaos system, which is a simple 3D autonomous system. The asymptotical stability is proven with Lyapunov theory for both of the proposed methods, and the system can be dragged to one of its three unstable equilibrium points respectively. Simulation results show that the proposed methods are valid, and control performance is improved through introducing adaptive technology

High Antioxidant Capacity of <i>Lacticaseibacillus paracasei</i> TDM-2 and <i>Pediococcus pentosaceus</i> TCM-3 from Qinghai Tibetan Plateau and Their Function towards Gut Modulation

Probiotic supplementation is a key therapeutic strategy for promoting gut health and maintaining gut homeostasis by modulating functional microbiota. In this study, we isolated two lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains, Pediococcus pentosaceus TCM-3 and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei TDM-2, from Qinghai-Tibetan plateau, and evaluated their probiotic properties and antioxidant bioactivity. In which, TDM-2 had higher T-AOC activity than either TCM-3 or LGG (4.10 μmol/mL vs. 3.68 and 3.53 μmol/mL, respectively, p Pediococcus, Lactobacillus, and Clostridium_sensu_strictos at the genus level, and Firmicutes and Proteobacteria at the phylum level. Notably, the TCM-3 group exhibited higher short-chain fatty acid production than the TDM-2 group and untreated controls (acetic acid at 12 h: 4.54 mmol L−1 vs. 4.06 mmol L−1 and 4.00 mmol L−1; acetic acid at 24 h: 4.99 mmol L−1 vs. 4.90 mmol L−1 and 4.82 mmol L−1, p < 0.05). These findings demonstrate that LAB supplementation with high antioxidant capacity and probiotic properties can promote gut health by modulating functional microbiota and is enriching for beneficial taxa. Our study provides guidance for therapeutic strategies that use novel LAB strains to maintain gut homeostasis and functional microbiota modulation
