This paper deals with a newly conceived combine control topology. Dead-Beat and Repetitive controllers are proposed to operate jointly in 4-leg VSI for stand-alone applications. In such mode of operation, dedicated controller has to regulate the inve... Read More about Digital dead-beat and repetitive combined control for stand-alone four-leg VSI.

Measuring agreement on linguistic expressions in medical treatment scenarios (2016)
Conference Proceeding

Quality of life assessment represents a key process of deciding treatment success and viability. As such, patients’ perceptions of their functional status and well-being are important inputs for impairment assessment. Given that patient completed que...

Synthesis of malhamensilipin A exploiting iterative epoxidation/chlorination: experimental and computational analysis of epoxide-derived chloronium ions (2016)
Journal Article

We report a 12-step catalytic enantioselective formal synthesis of malhamensilipin A (3) and diastereoisomeric analogues from (E)-2-undecenal. The convergent synthesis relied upon iterative epoxidation and phosphorus(V)-mediated deoxydichlorination r...

The bondage of the affections: willing, feeling, and desiring in Luther's theology, 1513-1525 (2016)
Book Chapter

This essay examines the place of affectivity and emotion in Martin Luther's early theology 1513-25. After a critical discussion of the terminological complexities involved in analysing affectivity and the related category of desire in Luther's Latin...
