LMI‐based passivation of LTI systems with application to marine structures by Nicolás Faedo, Yerai Peña‐Sanchez, Fabio Carapellese, Giuliana Mattiazzo, John V. Ringwood

“…Abstract Due to the inherent relevance of passive (physically representative) models for control, state‐estimation, and motion simulation in the field of marine systems, in this paper, an optimisation‐based approach to passivation of linear time‐invariant (LTI) systems is proposed with application to physically consistent dynamical modelling of marine structures. In particular, the presented strategy is based upon the introduction of a suitably designed perturbation, computed via minimisation of a linear objective subject to a specific set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). …”

Role of Lignin in Moisture Interactions of Cellulose Microfibril Structures in Wood by Aleksi Zitting, Antti Paajanen, Michael Altgen, Lauri Rautkari, Paavo A. Penttilä

“…Wide‐angle scattering shows that delignification has no substantial effect on the cellulose crystal structure and how it changes with moisture. Both the scattering results and simulations suggest that lignin is a passive, rather than an active participant in the moisture response of microfibril bundles in wood cell walls. …”
