Trajectory tracking control of an underactuated capsubot (2015)
Journal Article
Huda, M. N., & Yu, H. (2015). Trajectory tracking control of an underactuated capsubot. Autonomous Robots, 39(2), 183-198. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10514-015-9434-3

Trajectory tracking control of underactuated systems is one of the challenging issues. This paper proposes a two-stage control strategy for the trajectory tracking of a class of underactuated mechanical systems. Two new acceleration profiles for the...

The origins of macroscopic quantum coherence in high temperature superconductivity. (2015)
Journal Article
Turner, P., & Nottale, L. (2015). The origins of macroscopic quantum coherence in high temperature superconductivity. Physica C: Superconductivity and its Applications, 515, 15-30. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physc.2015.04.006

A new, theoretical approach to macroscopic quantum coherence and superconductivity in the p-type (hole doped) cuprates is proposed. The theory includes mechanisms to account for e-pair coupling in the superconducting and pseudogap phases and their in...

‘Imperialistic abroad and xenophobic at home’. How does the UK publishing industry plead to these charges? Guilty or not guilty? (2015)
Journal Article
Craighill, S. (2015). ‘Imperialistic abroad and xenophobic at home’. How does the UK publishing industry plead to these charges? Guilty or not guilty?. Journal of European Popular Culture, 6(1), 5-18. https://doi.org/10.1386/jepc.6.1.5_1

This article examines popular culture and its effect on the European translations market. The dominant position of Anglo-Saxon culture in the global cultural economy has stimulated an imbalance in the flow of translations towards the English-language...
