When we developed this project we created a three-level priority system, with first priority going to Stanford faculty and staff.
For a system with first order dynamics and affine control input, designing a sliding mode control overcoming only such uncertainties or disturbances is a trivial task.
In 2011, for example, President Obama signed the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act (AIA), which many observers say is the biggest change to patent law since 1952: it replaced the "first to invent" system with "first inventor to file," meaning that inventors can no longer challenge a filed patent by claiming to have had the idea first.
Since the unperturbed system (mbox{(1)}|_{varepsilon=0}) is a Hamiltonian system with first integral (H x,y)), it is obvious that assumptions (I) and (II) are satisfied.
For a quartic system with third-order critical point, 11 limit cycles were obtained in [1] by using the inverse integrating factor method.
By obtaining the IRFs or frequency response functions (FRFs) (by the Fourier transform of IRFs) of equivalent linear system, linear random vibration methods can be used to determine the considered statistical responses for the nonlinear system with first order approximation.
We implemented the delay neural field equation in MATLAB® based on an Euler method for the time-evolution of the system with zeroth-order or first-order quadrature (rectangular rule or trapezoidal rule) for the integral parts of the integro-differential equation.
In the past 20 years, several changes have occurred in the Swiss primary health care system with first the introduction of a mandatory health insurance scheme (Lamal) [ 4] and secondly with the introduction of the homogeneous medical pricing (Tarmed) [ 5].
In sublethal poisoning, the most serious effects involve the central nervous system (with first symptoms including headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, malaise and visual disturbances, followed by peripheral neuropathies or neuropsychiatric abnormalities (Table 1).
