Energy conservation is crucial in wireless ad hoc sensor network design to increase network lifetime. Since communication consumes a major part of the energy used by a sensor node, efficient communication is important. Topology control aims at achieving more efficient communication by dropping links …

Introduction Mechanical power of ventilation, a summary parameter reflecting the energy transferred from the ventilator to the respiratory system, has associations with outcomes. INTELLiVENT–Adaptive Support Ventilation is an automated ventilation mode that changes ventilator settings according to algorithms …

This master’s thesis focuses on the implementation of a customized advanced controller for a gantry robot. Using mathematical models and numerical simulations, a Model Reference Adaptive Controller (MRAC) was selected. The controller was implemented on a Beckhoff-oriented system and validated on a physical …
