RESUMO
This article delves into the intricate challenge of implementing prescribed-time command filtered control in the context of uncertain nonlinear systems. Firstly, a prescribed-time function is defined to lay the groundwork for subsequent controller design. Subsequently, a novel prescribed-time command Filtered controller is proposed for high-order nonlinear systems featuring unknown parameters. This controller guarantees swift error convergence within a predefined time range, with the added capability of periodic error convergence to zero during subsequent controller operations. A pivotal innovation in this study lies in the controller's design, which remains unaffected by the system's initial conditions. This unique feature enables the prescribed time to be flexibly set within physical constraints, diverging markedly from conventional finite-time control theory. Theoretical analysis has conclusively shown that the controller achieves full-state tracking error convergence within the specified time frame. The efficacy of the research findings is substantiated through two simulation cases, underscoring a substantial contribution to the refinement and adaptability of nonlinear system control theory.
RESUMO
Xylose plants (produce xylose from corncob through dilute acid treatment) generate a large amount of corncob residue (CCR), most of which are burned and lacked of valorization. Herein, to address this issue, CCR was directly used as starting material for high-solid loading enzymatic hydrolysis via a simple strategy by combining PFI homogenization (for sufficient mixing) with batch-feeding. A maximum glucose concentration of 187.1 g/L was achieved after the saccharification with a solid loading of 25 wt% and enzyme dosage of 10 FPU/g-CCR. Furthermore, the residue of enzymatic hydrolysis (REH) was directly used as a bio-adhesive for plywood production with both high dry (1.7 MPa) and wet (1.1 MPa) surface bonding strength (higher than the standard (0.7 MPa)), and the excellent adhesion was due to the interfacial crosslinking between the REH adhesive (containing lignin, free glucose, and nanosized fibers) and cell wall of woods. Compared with traditional reported adhesives, the REH bio-adhesive has advantages of formaldehyde-free, good moisture resistance, green process, relatively low cost and easy realization. This study presents a simple and effective strategy for better utilization of CCR, which also provides beneficial reference for the valorization of other kinds of lignocellulosic biomass.
