The control law adapts fast and tracks the reference system with the guaranteed robustness and transient performance in the presence of unmatched uncertainties. The interval analysis is used to build the quasi-linear parameter-varying model of unmatched nonlinear system, and the robust stability of the proposed controller is addressed by sum of squares programming. The transient performance analysis shows that within the limit of hardware a large adaption gain can improve the asymptotic tracking performance. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the theoretical findings of the proposed controller.展开更多

Experiment 1, in which the spots and their placement imitated the arrangement on the crab Carcinus maenas, tested whether high and low contrast spots touching the body outline (disruptive 'edge' morphs) made the artificial prey more difficult to detect than when the spots did not touch the outline (non-disruptive 'inner' morphs) against three different backgrounds: 'small', 'middle' and 'large' spot size. In Experiment 2, the range of spot sizes and their positions ('edge' and 'inner') on the crab morphs were varied to determine the most effective combination against the 'mid- dle' background. Altogether, 640 volunteers participated in these computer trials, representing a high degree of independent replication. All patterned morphs were significantly harder to detect than plain morphs, indicating that possessing at least some degree of background matching can provide camouflage. Both experiments demonstrated that various morphs, though not having the same spot sizes as the background, had similar or better survivorship as those with matching spot sizes--indicating that opti- mal camouflage did not come from background matching alone. In Experiment 2, edge-disrupted morphs consistently took longer to find than their non-disruptive counterparts. The relative effects of edge disruption, contrast, and background/prey spot size are clearly context-dependent, highlighting the complexity of prey concealment [Current Zoology 61 (4): 718-728, 2015].展开更多
