[The researchers] propose a Lyapunov theory based linguistic reinforcement learning (RL) framework for stable tracking control of robotic manipulators. … Controlling robot manipulators is an extremely challenging and complex control problem due to their highly nonlinear and coupled dynamics. Flawless modeling of robotic manipulators is an equally daunting task; forcing the designer to make idealizing assumptions with consequent modeling errors. This has prompted designers to go for model free approaches. RL has emerged as an alternative technique to design high performance controllers for robot manipulators. [The] Lyapunov theory offers a powerful platform for designing controllers that are guaranteed to be stable and can handle model uncertainties and parameter variations. 2, record 1, English, - Lyapunov%20stability%20theory

Cuando un objeto cae de una altura cualquiera, el aire empieza a chocar contra él. Cuanto más rápido se mueva el objeto, más rozamiento se producirá, hasta llegar al punto en que la fuerza de rozamiento contra el aire sea igual a la fuerza con la que el objeto cae. Es entonces cuando el sistema objeto-gravedad-aire llega al equilibrio : pese a que la gravedad terrestre intenta acelerar aún más el objeto, el rozamiento contra el aire es tan grande que no lo permite.

Cette situation est liée à un désir de rechercher, dans les meilleures conditions, le plus d'informations possibles sur les emplois offerts.

El cierre brusco de una tubería, al cortar la corriente, provoca un aumento instantáneo de la presión del agua. Esta zona de presión se propaga [...] con la velocidad del sonido [...] en la tubería y puede hacerla estallar si tiene alguna junta o punto de menor resistencia. Este fenómeno, llamado golpe de ariete, reviste mucha importancia en las obras hidráulicas, especialmente en las presas hidroeléctricas. Las canalizaciones de estas obras comunican, por unos pozos o chimeneas de equilibrio, con un depósito de agua : como éste tiene su nivel al aire libre, puede absorber todo aumento brusco de la presión en las tuberías. 3, record 10, Spanish, - chimenea%20de%20equilibrio
