Article Abstract

In this study, the problem of trajectory tracking optimal control of robotic manipulator system subjected to external load disturbances is investigated, and an observer-based discrete fast terminal sliding mode predictive optimal control (FTSMPC) strategy is presented. Firstly, to address the unknown friction torque and load disturbances, a novel discrete-time extended state observer is designed to estimate the lumped disturbances, in which the boundedness of the observation error can be guaranteed through theoretical analysis. Then, with the outputs of the observer, an FTSMPC control approach is designed. In this control scheme, the reaching phase is optimized by designing a predictive input torque controller, which not only enhances the trajectory tracking response performance effectively but also makes the input torque curve smoother. Moreover, the theoretical stability proof of the system is verified strictly. Finally, a simulation case and an experimental application are carried out, and the comparison results show the excellent control performance of the proposed method.

The human kidneys play a pivotal role in regulating blood pressure, water, and salt homeostasis, but assessment of renal function typically requires invasive methods. Deuterium metabolic imaging (DMI) is a novel, noninvasive technique for mapping tissue-specific uptake and metabolism of deuterium-labeled tracers. This study evaluates the feasibility of renal DMI at 7-Tesla (7T) to track deuterium-labeled tracers with high spatial and temporal resolution, aiming to establish a foundation for potential clinical applications in the noninvasive investigation of renal physiology and pathophysiology.

Investigating social and independent behavior structure in early life is critical for understanding development and brain maturation in social mammals. However, this investigation necessitates monitoring animals over weeks to months often with subsecond time resolution creating challenges for both lab studies focused on brief observation periods and field studies in which animal tracking can be imprecise. Here we used machine vision and two-week long continuous behavior recordings of families of gerbils, a highly social rodent, in large, undisturbed home environments to quantify the behavioral development of individual pups.

The endometrium is a vital mucosal tissue which undergoes cyclical regeneration, differentiation, and remodeling upon hormonal, cellular, and molecular signaling networks. Dysregulation of these processes can trigger a range of pathological conditions including chronic inflammatory disorders, hyperplastic lesions, malignancies, and infertility, necessitating the need for effective therapeutic interventions. Furthermore, we are still dependent on conventional treatment modalities which are often constrained by inefficient drug biodistribution, systemic toxicity, and emergence of therapeutic resistance.
