It’s easy to forget that place names are all just words at the end of the day, and so—just like words in a dictionary—they all have histories, etymologies, and origin stories of their own.

A Pareto genetic algorithm is used to explore the performance of planar absorbers incorporating a sheet of periodic resistive patches embedded in a primary material substrate. The absorbing ...

In many real-world rotary machines, there is an inherent need to attenuate time-varying but position-dependent periodic disturbances. This article proposes an improved repetitive controller, in which ...
