Linear Active Disturbance Rejection Control-Based Voltage Controller for Buck and Boost DC/DC Converters in DC Distribution Grids by Asimenia Korompili, Oemer Ekin, Marija Stevic, Veit Hagenmeyer, Antonello Monti

“…This L-ADRC model is formulated according to the generalised ADRC concept, making the voltage controller applicable to converters of the non-minimum phase (NMP) class, like the boost DC/DC converters in voltage control mode, and suitable for matched and mismatched disturbances, opposite to the original ADRC, which exists mostly in literature of converter controllers. The formulation of the proposed L-ADRC model in the non-canonical form facilitates the employment of model-based estimation and feedback control methods, whose performance is determined through the design of several parameters. …”

The Great Vietnamese Famine of 1944-45 Revisited by Geoffrey Gunn

“…While more recent understandings2 recognize that famines are mostly man-made, it is also true that in ecologically vulnerable zones, alongside natural disasters, war and conflict often tilts the balance between sustainability and human disaster.3 Allowing the contingency of natural cause as a predisposing factor for mass famine, this article revisits the Vietnam famine of 1944-45 in light of flaws in human agency (alongside willful or even deliberate neglect) as well as destabilization stemming from war and conflict. …”
