Wireless networked control systems (WNCS) over mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a new area of research and has many potential applications, for instance, military or rescue missions, exploring hazardous environments, and so on. For performance evalua... Read More about Co-simulation of wireless networked control systems over mobile ad hoc network using SIMULINK and OPNET.

A further study of control for a pendulum-driven cart (2008)
Journal Article
Yu, H., Yang, T., Liu, Y., & Wane, S. (2008). A further study of control for a pendulum-driven cart. International Journal of Advanced Mechatronic Systems, 1(1), 44. https://doi.org/10.1504/ijamechs.2008.020837

Recently, the control of a ‘pendulum-driven cart’has attracted some considerable research interest. One of the reasons is that the mechanism studied is very similar to that of an ‘actively-driven capsule robot’which is still under development and wil...

Analysis and Control of a Capsubot (2008)
Journal Article
Liu, Y., Yu, H., & Yang, T. (2008). Analysis and Control of a Capsubot. IFAC papers online, 41(2), 756-761. https://doi.org/10.3182/20080706-5-kr-1001.00130

In this paper, a special underactuated system – a capsule robot, also called capsubot, is studied to investigate the tracking control issue of underactuated dynamic systems. A seven-step motion strategy of the capsubot is proposed. A trajectory profi... Read More about Analysis and Control of a Capsubot.

Closed-loop tracking control of a pendulum-riven cart-pole underactuated system (2008)

Theoretical and experimental investigation of the effect of oil aeration on the load-carrying capacity of a hydrodynamic journal bearing (2007)
Journal Article
Goodwin, M. J., Dong, D., Yu, H., & Nikolajsen, J. L. (2007). Theoretical and experimental investigation of the effect of oil aeration on the load-carrying capacity of a hydrodynamic journal bearing. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers,

It is widely assumed that the presence of air bubbles in the lubricating oil of a hydrodynamic bearing gives rise to a reduced load-carrying capacity, because of the high compressibility and low viscosity of the air and its tendency, therefore, to up...
