This work proposes a methodology to determine the height difference of the guideways of machine tools where two guideways are not placed on the same horizontal plane. Firstly, a rigid–flexible coupling system consisting of a moving rigid mass a...

When two resonators of coupled silicon resonators are identical and the gain on one side is equal to the loss on the other side, a parity-time (PT) symmetric-coupled silicon resonator is formed. As non-Hermitian systems, the PT-symmetric systems have...

This paper presents a new methodology for determining the optimal coefficients of a PID controller for a four-switch buck–boost (FSBB) converter. The main objective of this research is to improve the performance of FSBB converters by fine-tunin...

Polycrystalline ZnS is a typical infrared optical material. It is widely used in advanced optical systems due to its excellent optical properties. The machining accuracy of polycrystalline ZnS optical elements must satisfy the requirements of high-pe...

Aspherical surfaces, with their varying curvature, minimize aberrations and enhance clarity, making them essential in optics, aerospace, medical devices, and telecommunications. However, manufacturing these surfaces is challenging because of systemat...
