Magnetic seeding coagulation: Effect of Al species and magnetic particles on coagulation efficiency, residual Al, and floc properties

Magnetic seeding coagulation (MSC) process has been used to accelerate flocs sedimentation with an applied magnetic field, offering large handling capacity and low energy consumption. The interactions of three typical Al species, aluminum chloride (AlCl₃), Al₁₃O₄(OH)₂₄⁷⁺ polymer (Al<sub...

Barrier Lypunov functions-based nonsingular fixed-time switching control for strict-feedback nonlinear dynamics with full state constraints

This work proposes a nonsingular adaptive fixed-time switching control method for a class of strict-feedback nonlinear dynamics subject to full state constraints. The peculiarity of this design lies in overcoming the singularity issue that typically appears in the existing backstepping-based fixed-time control methods caused by the iterative...
