For the cooling system of a mobile machine with m control variables and with n=m correction variables different control strategies have been investigated in order to minimize power to save energy and to reduce fan noise with sufficient cooling. The plant is nonlinear and not identified. Three...

A biplot, which is the multivariate generalization of the two-variable scatterplot, can be used to visualize the results of many multivariate techniques, especially those that are based on the singular value decomposition. We consider data sets consisting of continuous-scale measurements, their...

Poverty is a multidimensional, fuzzy and complex phenomenon that cannot be faithfully represented by mono-dimensional monetary indicators. In the last years, much research has been devoted to tackle poverty fuzziness, while less attention has been paid to poverty complexity. In this paper, we...
