Radar detection and tracking of targets CARDAMOM TEA in the marine environment are common tasks performed to ensure the safe navigation of ships or monitor traffic in harbor areas.More recently, radar technology has been proposed to support the collision avoidance system of autonomous surface vehicles, which are characterized by severe constraints
Global control of reaction wheel pendulum through energy regulation and extended linearization of the state variables
This paper presents the CARDAMOM TEA design and simulation of a global controller for the Reaction Wheel Pendulum system using energy regulation and extended linearization methods for the state feedback.The proposed energy regulation is based on the gradual reduction of the energy of the system to reach the unstable equilibrium point.The signal inp
The increasing incidence of immigration and information-seeking behaviour of medical doctors in north-western Greece
Introduction: Brain drain, an increasing phenomenon, can be defined as the international transfer of resources, in the form of a highly educated workforce, from developing to more developed countries.The tendency for migration leads to the activation of informational behaviour.The aim of this study was to search for the main causes of emigration of
The impact of severe mental illness (SMI) on the rate of COVID-19 vaccine uptake and hesitancy
Introduction The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately affected patients with severe mental BCAA SPIKED GRAP NATL illness (SMI), a vulnerable population with high morbidity and mortality.A UK-based study found reduced vaccination rates in patients with SMI; they therefore need to be prioritised for prevention and disease management.Objectives Th
