A Novel Extended Reaction Force/Torque Observer With Impedance Control, İlkay Turaç Özçeli̇k, Abdurrahman Eray Baran Feb 2024

A Novel Extended Reaction Force/Torque Observer With Impedance Control, İlkay Turaç Özçeli̇k, Abdurrahman Eray Baran

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper proposes a new extended version of the reaction force observer (RFOB) for high-precision motion control systems. The RFOB has been proven to be useful for many applications in the literature. However, because of the low-pass filter present inside of the RFOB, it has certain limitations. In this study, a new algorithm is proposed to compensate for filtering-based errors in the classical RFOB structure. The algorithm includes the differentiation of the observed force and scaling with a proper value. However, since the force has a noisy nature, differentiation also affects the signal’s stability and performance. To resolve this issue, …


Extremal Functions For A Singular Super-Critical Trudinger-Moser Inequality, Juan Zhao Jan 2024

Extremal Functions For A Singular Super-Critical Trudinger-Moser Inequality, Juan Zhao

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we deal with a singular super-critical Trudinger-Moser inequality on a unit ball of Rn , n ≥ 3. For any p > 1, we set λp(B) = inf u∈W1,n 0 (B),u̸≡0 ∫ B |∇u|ndx ( ∫ B |u|pdx)n/p as an eigenvalue related to the n-Laplacian. Let S be a set of radially symmetric functions. Precisely, if β ≥ 0 and α < (1 + p nβ)n−1+n/pλp(B) , then there exists a positive constant ϵ0 such that when λ ≤ 1 + ϵ0 , sup u∈W1,n 0 (B)∩S, ∫ B |∇u|ndx−α( ∫ B |u|p|x|pβdx) np ≤1 ∫ B |x|pβ ( eαn(1+ p n β)|u| n n−1 − λ Σm k=0 |αn(1 + p nβ)u n n−1 |k k! ) dx is attained, where αn = nω1/(n−1) n−1 , ωn−1 is the surface area of the unit ball in Rn . The proof is based on the method of blow-up analysis. The case λ = 0 was studied by Yang-Zhu in [38]. de Figueiredo [11] considered the case p = 2, β ≥ 0, and α = 0 in two dimension. The case λ = 0, p = n,−1 < β < 0, and α = 0 was considered by Adimurthi-Sandeep [1]. Our results extend those of the above cases.


On The Invariance Of Hyperstoneanness Under Lattice Isomorphisms, Banu Güntürk Jan 2024

On The Invariance Of Hyperstoneanness Under Lattice Isomorphisms, Banu Güntürk

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let X and Y be compact Hausdorff spaces with Y hyperstonean. In this paper, we prove that if C(X,R) and C(Y,R) are lattice isomorphic then these Banach spaces are linearly isometric, and, consequently, X and Y are homeomorphic, which in turn implies that X is also hyperstonean. Actually, we prove more than what is announced in the headline above. This result, in some ways, is a generalization of the well-known Banach-Stone theorem.


Invariant Symplectic Forms On Number Fields, Ahmad Rafiqi, Ayberk Zeyti̇n Jan 2024

Invariant Symplectic Forms On Number Fields, Ahmad Rafiqi, Ayberk Zeyti̇n

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We show that a number field of the form Q(λ) admits a symplectic form which is invariant under multiplication by λ if and only if the minimal polynomial of λ is palindromic of even degree. In particular, if λ is an algebraic integer, it is forced to be a unit. In the case when the minimal polynomial of λ is palindromic of degree 2d, we show that there is a d-dimensional space of invariant symplectic forms on Q(λ) .
