This paper analyzes how the dynamics of house prices are affected by the option to rebuild or enlarge existing dwellings. The nonlinear functional form for option value and zoning limits provides identification of changes in option value over the cycle. For homes with high development potential,...

This paper presents two identification methods for permanent magnet synchronous machine based on sliding modes. The first one is a new algorithm obtained from an identification technique based on an extended sliding mode observer and a least square solution using an instrumental variable. The...

Block-oriented models have proved to be useful as simple nonlinear models for a vast number of applications. They are described as a cascade of linear dynamic and nonlinear static blocks. They have emerged as an appealing proposal due to their simplicity and the property of being valid over a...
