To handle input and output time delays that commonly exist in many networked control systems(NCSs), a new robust continuous sliding mode control(CSMC) scheme is proposed for the output tracking in uncertain single input-single-output(SISO) networked control systems. This scheme consists of three consecutive steps. First, although the network-induced delay in those systems can be effectively handled by using Pade approximation(PA), the unmatched disturbance cames out as another difficulty in the control design. Second, to actively estimate this unmatched disturbance, a generalized proportional integral observer(GPIO) technique is utilized based on only one measured state. Third, by constructing a new sliding manifold with the aid of the estimated unmatched disturbance and states, a GPIO-based CSMC is synthesized, which is employed to cope with not only matched and unmatched disturbances, but also networkinduced delays. The stability of the entire closed-loop system under the proposed GPIO-based CSMC is detailedly *** promising tracking efficiency and feasibility of the proposed control methodology are verified through simulations and experiments on Quanser's servo module for motion control under various test conditions.

Na3V2（PO4）3（NVP） is regarded as alternative cathode material for sodium-ion batteries（SIBs） due to its potential high-rate performance and pronounced long-term cycle stability. However, electronic conductivity and tap density are difficult to be balanced. Herein, we report that high-temperature shock（HTS） can prepare “single crystalline like” NVP which combines high-rate capability with high tap density together into one with the assistance of carbon framework and large particle. Thus, high reversible capacity of 110m Ah/g at 0.1 C with 89.9% capacity retention after 1600 cycles at 1 C and specific capacity of 83.5 m Ah/g at 50 C rate has been exhibited. This study provides a novel strategy to guide the production of high tap density, and rate performance polyanionic cathode materials.

Recently, we introduced the twist polynomials of delta-matroids and gave a characterization of even normal binary delta-matroids whose twist polynomials have only one term and posed a problem:what would happen for odd binary delta-matroids? In this paper, we show that a normal binary deltamatroid whose twist polynomials have only one term if and only if each connected component of the intersection graph of the delta-matroid is either a complete graph of odd order or a single vertex with a loop.
