In this paper,we report the deductive formula used for the method of dual-wavelength corresponding solutions under condition of having ligand interference and the stability constants of three new coordination compounds [AuL_2]^+determined with this method.The stability of the three compounds,the necessity of controlling pH in experimental systems and the advantage of this method are discussed in detail.

Switchable Dielectric Materials Based on 2-Methylimidazole

Two novel coordination polymers with molecular structures（2MI）＋[Zn（2MI）Cl3]-（1） and（2MI）＋NO3-（2） based on ligand 2-methylimidazole（2MI） were synthesized under solution method. Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group Cc with a=7.489（2）, b=13.448（4）, c=13.983（4） , β=98.402（2）°, Z=4 and V=102.246（2） 3. Compound 2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group pnma with a=14.296（3）, b=6.3180（12）, c=7.3862（13） , β=90°, Z=4 and V=667.1（2） 3. Dielectric measurements show compounds 1 and 2 have reversible dielectric anomalous behaviors with variation frequencies at different temperature.

Stabilization of coordinated motion for underwater vehicles

This paper presents a coordinating and stabilizing control law for a group of underwater vehicles with unstable dynamics. The coordinating law is derived from a potential that only depends on the relative configuration of the underwater vehicles. Being coordinated,the group behaves like one mechanical system with symmetry,and we focus on stabilizing a family of coordinated motions,called relative equilibria. The stabilizing law is derived using energy shaping to stabilize the relative equilibria which involve each vehicle translating along its longest（unstable） axis without spinning,while maintaining a relative configuration within the group. The proposed control law is physically motivated and avoids the linearization or cancellation of nonlinearities.

NEW DELAY-DEPENDENT STABILITY CRITERIA AND ROBUST CONTROL OF NONLINEAR TIME-DELAY SYSTEMS

This paper investigates the stability analysis and H_∞ control for a class of nonlinear timedelay systems,and proposes a number of new results.Firstly,an equivalent form is given for this class of systems by means of coordinate transformation and orthogonal decomposition of vector fields.Then,based on the equivalent form,some delay-dependent results are derived for the stability analysis of the systems by constructing a novel Lyapunov functional.Thirdly,the authors use the equivalent form and the obtained stability results to investigate the H_∞ control problem for a class of nonhnear time-delay control systems,and present a control design procedure.Finally,an illustrative example is given to show the effectiveness of the results obtained in this paper.It is shown that the main results of this paper are easier to check than some existing ones,and have less conservatism.

Finite-time Stabilization of a General Class of Nonholonomic Dynamic Systems via Terminal Sliding Mode

This paper presents control strategies for finite-time stabilization of a class of nonholonomic dynamic systems with unknown virtual control coefficients and system parameters. The minimal dilation degree technique and the terminal sliding mode control scheme with finite-time convergence are used to design the controllers. The systematic control strategy development involves the introduction of state transformations and the application of recursive terminal sliding mode structure. Depending on whether the system in question can be converted into a time-invariant linear system or not, two control schemes are proposed respectively guaranteeing that system states converge to zero in finite time. The effectiveness and the robust feature of the developed control approaches are testified by two practical examples： the simplified underactuated hovercraft system and the parking problem for a mobile robot of the unicycle type.
