Domestika: Compositional Techniques for Graphic Design

Free Download Domestika – Compositional Techniques for Graphic Design

Course Overview

A composition is made up of key elements like color, shape, space, balance, asymmetry. In graphic design, it’s essential to master these concepts and apply them to create communication that is impactful, relevant, and connects with your audience.

In this course, graphic designer Javier Alcaraz teaches you how to create an efficient graphic structure for your next project. As a specialist in editorial, branding, and typography projects, Javier explains the key components of creating a visual language and how to articulate ideas through design.

Unmanned Aircraft Design (2nd Edition)


Free Download Unmanned Aircraft Design: A Review of Fundamentals
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031677943 | 358 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 41 MB
This book provides fundamental principles, design procedures, and design tools for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with three sections focusing on vehicle design, autopilot design, and ground system design. The design of manned aircraft and the design of UAVs have some similarities and some differences. They include the design process, constraints (e.g., g-load, pressurization), and UAV main components (autopilot, ground station, communications system, sensors, and payload). A UAV designer must be aware of the latest UAV developments; current technologies; know lessons learned from past failures; and they should appreciate the breadth of UAV design options.

Variable Gain Design in Stochastic Iterative Learning Control


Free Download Variable Gain Design in Stochastic Iterative Learning Control
English | 2024 | ISBN: 9819782805 | 590 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 68 MB
This book investigates the critical gain design in stochastic iterative learning control (SILC), including four specific gain design strategies: decreasing gain design, adaptive gain design, event-triggering gain design, and optimal gain design. The key concept for the gain design is to balance multiple performance indices such as high tracking precision, effective noise reduction, and fast convergence speed. These gain design techniques can be applied to various control algorithms for stochastic systems to realize a high tracking performance. This book provides a series of design and analysis techniques for the establishment of a systematic framework of gain design in SILC. The book is intended for scholars and graduate students who are interested in stochastic control, recursive algorithms design, and iterative learning control.

Stability Analysis and Design for Nonlinear Singular Systems


Free Download Stability Analysis and Design for Nonlinear Singular Systems By Chunyu Yang, Qingling Zhang, Linna Zhou (auth.)
2013 | 212 Pages | ISBN: 3642321437 | PDF | 2 MB
Singular systems which are also referred to as descriptor systems, semi-state systems, differential- algebraic systems or generalized state-space systems have attracted much attention because of their extensive applications in the Leontief dynamic model, electrical and mechanical models, etc. This monograph presented up-to-date research developments and references on stability analysis and design of nonlinear singular systems. It investigated the problems of practical stability, strongly absolute stability, input-state stability and observer design for nonlinear singular systems and the problems of absolute stability and multi-objective control for nonlinear singularly perturbed systems by using Lyapunov stability theory, comparison principle, S-procedure and linear matrix inequality (LMI), etc. Practical stability, being quite different from stability in the sense of Lyapunov, is a significant performance specification from an engineering point of view. The basic concepts and results on practical stability for standard state-space systems were generalized to singular systems. For Lur’e type descriptor systems (LDS) which were the feedback interconnection of a descriptor system with a static nonlinearity, strongly absolute stability was defined and Circle criterion and Popov criterion were derived. The notion of input-state stability (ISS) for nonlinear singular systems was defined based on the concept of ISS for standard state-space systems and the characteristics of singular systems. LMI-based sufficient conditions for ISS of Lur’e singular systems were proposed. Furthermore, observer design for nonlinear singular systems was studied and some observer design methods were proposed by the obtained stability results and convex optimization algorithms. Finally, absolute stability and multi-objective control of nonlinear singularly perturbed systems were considered. By Lyapunov functions, absolute stability criteria of Lur’e singularly perturbed systems were proposed and multi-objective control of T-S fuzzy singularly perturbed systems was achieved. Compared with the existing results, the obtained methods do not depend on the decomposition of the original system and can produce a determinate upper bound for the singular perturbation parameter.

Smart Window Design Tool The Effect of Color in Transparent Facades


Free Download Smart Window Design Tool The Effect of Color in Transparent Facades by Bahar Sultan Qurraie
English | March 2, 2024 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0CW1HSZC3 | 195 pages | PDF | 20 Mb
The role of occupancy space, transparent facades, and shading elements in sustainable architectural design has become very important. It is also an important indicator of the quality of the space to avoid excessive heat gain, prevent glare, and to avoid damage due to radiation effects, by controlling or removing undesirable sunlight from building facades in buildings or atrium structures with large glass surfaces. The materials selected as shading members are usually chosen from those that have opacity. However, semi-transparent materials also function as shading. It pushes back the heat that the sun’s rays contain as energy, and provides light. To reach the book goal three parts were submitted.
