Universal ports (UPs) are the interfaces by which telecommunications services customers access the rich set of network capabilities provided by Universal Information Services (UIS). The most obvious manifestation of UPs is the physical outlet into which customers plug their voice,...
Advances in key technologies such as mobile devices (in particular, cell phones), wireless, geo-positioning, Internet and web services are paving the way for the emergence of Universal NAVIgation Technology (UNAVIT). Unlike modern navigation technology which supports...
This paper develops and validates a comprehensive and universally applicable computational concept for solving nonlinear differential equations (NDEs) through a neurocomputing concept based on cellular neural networks (CNNs). High-precision,...
The performance of a universal-linearization-concept-based extended Kalman filter (EKF) is evaluated by experimentally comparing its performance to that of a classical, linearization-based EKF, in the case of a simple nonlinear dynamical system. Instances of superior...
This paper presents a new family of omnidirectional and holonomic vehicles or, in short, omnimobile robots. The robot can perform simultaneously longitudinal, translational and rotational motions, providing full mobility. The concept is based on the original combination...
For demanding future applications in power transmission - like grid connection of large off-shore wind parks, solar thermic power generation or power supply of mega cities - there is a global need for advanced power electronic systems. The novel concept of Modular...
Permanent-magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs) are widely used as propulsion motors in hybrid electric, plug-in hybrid, and electric vehicles and as generators in renewable energy applications. Since position and current information is typically indispensable for...
Existential tinkering as a form of inquiry must be brought into the engineering curriculum at the university level, as well as into the education curricula in general, including early childhood education. This paper presents a methodology of education for people of all ages and...
