Ultimate Freedom Beyond Free Will


Free Download Keith Lehrer, "Ultimate Freedom: Beyond Free Will"
English | ISBN: 0197695027 | 2023 | 184 pages | EPUB | 4 MB
Philosopher Keith Lehrer outlines a view of freedom of choice based on a Kahneman-derived distinction between what he calls a first order system that is intuitive and immediate, and a higher order system of response, which he calls a second system of scientific analysis. Lehrer argues that freedom of choice is an expression of attention to the higher order system, and that what is often called free will is often just doing what you desire, a response that neglects consideration of other options. Freedom of choice acknowledges those options, and preference among them forms in response to the acceptance of evidence. We might suppose that in responding to beliefs that one has attended to evidence, but that is a delusion, because our higher order acceptance of evidence can be overwhelmed by the fixation created by first level belief.

U2 Above, Across, and Beyond Interdisciplinary Assessments


Free Download Scott D. Calhoun, "U2 Above, Across, and Beyond: Interdisciplinary Assessments"
English | ISBN: 1498501311 | 2015 | 164 pages | EPUB | 1461 KB
U2’s success and significance are due, in large part, to finding inventive, creative solutions for overcoming obstacles and moving past conventional boundaries. As it has embraced change and transformation over and over again, its fans and critics have come to value and expect this element of U2. These new essays from the disciplines of organizational communication, music theory, literary studies, religion, and cultural studies offer perspectives on several ways U2’s dynamic of change has been a constant theme throughout its career. The eight essays here come from the U2 Conference 2013, which explores the music, work, and influence of U2, furthering the scholarship on U2.

Type-3 Fuzzy Logic in Intelligent Control


Free Download Type-3 Fuzzy Logic in Intelligent Control by Oscar Castillo , Patricia Melin
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 89 Pages | ISBN : N/A | 25.2 MB
This book focuses on the field of type-3 fuzzy logic, also considering metaheuristics for applications in the control area. The main idea is that these areas together can solve various control problems and find better results. In this book, we test the proposed method using several benchmark problems, such as the problem for filling a water tank and the problem for controlling the trajectory in an autonomous mobile robot. We notice that when interval type-3 fuzzy systems are implemented to model the behavior of the systems, the results in control show a better stabilization, because the management of uncertainty is better. For this reason, we consider in this book the proposed method using type-3 fuzzy systems, fuzzy controllers, and metaheuristic algorithms to improve the control behavior of complex nonlinear plants. This book is intended to be a reference for scientists and engineers interested in applying type-3 fuzzy logic techniques for solving problems in intelligent control. We consider that this book can also be used to get novel ideas for new lines of research, or to continue the lines of research proposed by the authors of the book.

Type-2 Fuzzy Logic in Control of Nonsmooth Systems Theoretical Concepts and Applications


Free Download Type-2 Fuzzy Logic in Control of Nonsmooth Systems: Theoretical Concepts and Applications by Oscar Castillo , Luis T. Aguilar
English | EPUB (True) | 2019 | 126 Pages | ISBN : 3030031330 | 4.2 MB
This book presents the synthesis and analysis of fuzzy controllers and its application to a class of mechanical systems. It mainly focuses on the use of type-2 fuzzy controllers to account for disturbances known as hard or nonsmooth nonlinearities. The book, which summarizes the authors’ research on type-2 fuzzy logic and control of mechanical systems, presents models, simulation and experiments towards the control of servomotors with dead-zone and Coulomb friction, and the control of both wheeled mobile robots and a biped robot. Closed-loop systems are analyzed in the framework of smooth and nonsmooth Lyapunov functions.

Two-Dimensional Superconductivity in Rare Earth Oxybismuthides with Unusual Valent Bismuth Square Net


Free Download Two-Dimensional Superconductivity in Rare Earth Oxybismuthides with Unusual Valent Bismuth Square Net by Ryosuke Sei
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 (2024 Edition) | 124 Pages | ISBN : 9819973120 | 44.6 MB
This book elucidates fascinating electronic phenomena of unusual Bi2-square net in layered R2O2Bi (R: rare earth) compounds using two approaches: the fabrication of epitaxial thin films and the synthesis of bulk polycrystalline powders. The Bi2-square net compounds are a promising platform to explore exotic physical properties originating from the interplay between a two-dimensional electronic state and strong spin-orbit coupling; however, there are few reports on Bi2-square net compounds due to the instability of unusual electronic configurations.
