Information fusion and cooperative control for target search and localization in multi-agent sensor networks by Hu, Jinwen

“…Our algorithm leads to a stable estimate for each agent regardless of whether or not the system is uniformly observable locally with the measurements of itself and its neighbors as long as the system is uniformly observable with the measurements of all agents and the communication is sufficiently fast compared to the sampling. Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed distributed Kalman filtering algorithm. …”

Synthesisation, characterisation and water adsorption on novel functional metal organic frameworks for heat transformation process by Han, Bo

“…Furthermore, it is also observed from GCMC results that the implantation of -CH3 additives on MOF-801 (Zr) shows longer hydrophobic length as compared to that of the parent MOF-801 (Zr), which delivers higher uptake-offtake difference (Δq) with fast kinetics per adsorption desorption cycle. The GCMC results show here the benchmark for the synthesisation and post modification of MOFs and composite adsorbents. …”
