Evaluation of community preferences for decentralised water management systems: a case study in Akaroa, Banks Peninsula
… requirements for decentralised water management systems for new construction have been used to alleviate the burden of town water supply. Rainwater harvesting systems (RWHS) and greywater reuse system (GWRS) both represent potential options to decentralise the current water supply even further. …

Fuzzy Logic Approaches to Modelling, Identification and Control of Non-Linear Systems
… is concerned with the modelling of non-linear systems, identification of control strategies and designing fuzzy controllers for uncertain systems using fuzzy logic techniques assisted by other conventional methods. The application of the proposed approaches are tested and evaluated on an …

Adaptive PI control of NOx̳ emissions in a Urea Selective Catalytic Reduction System using system identification models
… NH3 as the output, and Excess NH3,in as input, a systems identification approach was adopted to estimate the values of k and T, the parameters for the transfer function. A family of -these parameter values was determined as the operating conditions of NH3,in and NOx,in were varied. Using a full …

Signal processing and decision making in single cells
… yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Utilizing systems identification tools from control engineering, we study how the cells rapidly and robustly maintain osmotic homeostasis. By measuring the expression level of key proteins we begin to understand how fluctuating environments regulate gene …

Neural Circuit Dependence of Acute and Subacute Nociception in C. Elegans
… system in all organisms. Animals use nociceptive systems to escape from substances that decrease survival, and can also modulate the threshold for avoidance behaviors to weigh the attractive features of an environment against its harmful features. To allow regulation, the nociception system of …
