For those new to fields like robotics or aerospace, it can seem at first glance that a problem like moving a robot arm or flying an RC airplane might be simple problems to solve. It turns out, however ...

In an RL-based control system, the turbine (or wind farm) controller is realized as an agent that observes the state of the ...

Self-regulating systems with feedback loops, i.e., the routing back of the output of a system to its input, have existed since antiquity and have since become an integral part of modern technology.

Hot glue guns are pretty simple beasts: there’s an on/off switch, a heating element, and a source of current, be it battery or wired. You turn it on, and the heater starts warming up; ...

Machines and processes are controlled using many strategies, from simple ladder logic to custom algorithms for specialized process control, but proportional-integral-derivative (PID) is the most ...

According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, this condition affects about 5 percent of women in the United States. Several different types of bacteria can cause PID, including the ...

PID is a serious infection of the reproductive organs. Although an ultrasound can be used to detect PID, it isn’t always necessary for diagnosis. Less costly diagnostic tools are preferred. To ...
