We prove a semi-invertible Oseledets theorem for cocycles acting on measurable fields of Banach spaces, i.e. we only assume invertibility of the base, not of the operator. As an application, we prove an invariant manifold theorem for nonlinear cocycles acting on measurable fields of Banach spaces. © 2021, The Author(s)  

We investigate singular stochastic delay differential equations (SDDEs) in view of their long-time behavior. Using Lyons's rough path theory, we show that SDDEs can be solved pathwise and induce a continuous stochastic flow on the space of (Gubinelli's) controlled paths. In the language of random dynamical systems, this result shows that SDDEs induce a continuous cocycle on random fibers, or, more precisely, on a measurable field of Banach spaces. We furthermore prove a multiplicative ergodic theorem (MET) on measurable fields of Banach spaces that applies under significantly weaker structural and measurability assumptions than preceding METs. Applying it to linear SDDEs shows that the...

One of the most crucial infrastructure requirements of integrated systems is designing and providing a comprehensive architecture for implementation, support and improvement of their smart services or platforms. And without exception, smart University would also require a responsive architecture for the integration and consolidation of its current and future systems and services. Providing higher level of academic services, integration and consolidation support, and cost accounting (including 'cloud storage', 'computing', 'network communication and bandwidth' and energy consumption) can be placed as pivotal issues among smart university services. In this article, a basic definition of a... 

Sensor networks have a wide range of potential and practical application. A sensor network consists of a large number of tiny, low power and short-living sensors. Some sensor network applications require k-coverage to ensure the quality of surveillance. Meanwhile, energy is another primary concern for sensor networks. In this dissertation, an algorithm proposed which groups sensors in to disjoint subsets. Every subset cans k-cover the whole area. The subsets are scheduled to work successively. Therefore, the network lifetime is prolonged. Furthermore, sensing range is fixed. Also another algorithm, proposed which constructs some non-disjoint subsets, and in each active subset, each sensor... 

We consider an internally coded multiple access technique for Ultra Wide-Band systems which combines time-hopping (TH) and spread-time (ST) techniques using a super-orthogonal encoder. In this method, the duration of each bit is divided into Ns frames. The outputs of a superorthogonal encoder and a PN sequence specify the frame number, in which the data is transmitted in spread-time CDMA form using the second PN sequence. We consider soft decision before Viterbi decoding at the receiver. We obtain the performance of the proposed method. We also consider the uncoded ST-CDMA system and compare its performance with our method. The results indicate that our method has much more better... 

We consider an internally coded scheme for multicarrier frequency-hopping CDMA (MC-FH-CDMA) communication systems. In this method, the total bandwidth is partitioned into Ns1 disjoint bands and each band is also segmented into Ns2 subbands. Based on the super-orthogonal encoder output and a pseudorandom (PN) sequence, one of the Ns1 bands is selected. Then, the data is transmitted in that band in the form of multicarrier frequency-hopping technique using BPSK modulation. At the receiver front end, we use soft detector, then we apply Viterbi decoding algorithm. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method. The results indicate that our method outperforms the previously presented uncoded... 

In this paper, a novel structure is presented in order to decrease the polarization charges of quantum wells. The main purpose of this design is to make electron and hole wavefunctions closer to each other and to increase overlap integral following an increase of radiative recombination rates and internal quantum efficiency. Furthermore, carriers will be increased and become more balanced and identical which leads to an increase in efficiency of light-emitting diodes. The improvement of radiative recombination rates is studied in new structures. Energy bands diagram, carriers density, current density–voltage, and power density–current density are used to demonstrate the superior performance...

Solar panel flexibility plays an important role in the attitude control of satellites. Therefore, traditionally the deformations of flexible solar panels are measured with a series of sensors along the panels itself. This paper presents a novel maiden attempt to simultaneously estimate the attitude and deformation of a flexible satellite using only 2 low-cost attitude sensors namely the sun sensor and magnetometer measurements. The flexible satellite is considered as a central rigid body with two attached flexible panels in order to derive the governing dynamic equations based on the Lagrange's equation. Both Extended Kalman filter (EKF) and Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) are employed for the... 

Soil salinity threatens agricultural production worldwide by constraining plant growth and final crop yield. The early stages are most sensitive to salinity, in response to which salicylic acid (SA) has demonstrated beneficial effects in various plant species. Based on this, a maize (Zea mays L.) pot experiment was set up combining three levels of soil salinity (0, 6 and 12 dS m–1), obtained through NaCl addition, with three levels of SA (0, 300 and 600 mM), applied by leaf spraying 20 days after seedling emergence. Fifteen days later, the following traits were assessed: morphology (plant height, leaf number), growth (root and shoot dry weight), leaf water status [relative water content...
