In this paper, the fuzzy dynamic event-triggered (DET) containment control problem for human-in-the-loop (HiTL) multiagent systems (MASs) with error constraints is investigated. Through utilization of fuzzy logic systems (FLSs), a high-gain state observer is presented to estimate unavailable states. To improve the transient performance, a fixed-time prescribed performance (FTPP) function is presented to restrict the containment errors and virtual errors. Under the backstepping control framework, a barrier Lyapunov function is designed to guarantee that the transform errors do not transgress the constraint bounds. Meanwhile, a nonlinear filter is introduced to obtain reduction calculation and enhance the control performance. Furthermore, the DET mechanism is presented to decrease the network communication burden. By directly controlling multiple leaders to form a dynamic convex hull, the proposed control strategy ensures that output signals of followers can converge to this convex hull and the containment errors can converge to the prescribed bounds within fixed time. Herein, a simulation example is presented to assess the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
Gas-assisted coaxial electrospinning (GACES), a simple and versatile technique for the large-scale fabrication of coaxial nanofiber membranes, possesses significant industrial potential across advanced manufacturing sectors including semiconductors—particularly for fabricating high-precision dielectric layers, high-uniformity encapsulation materials, and flexible semiconductor substrates requiring tailored core-shell architectures. However, there is still a lack of relevant studies on the effective regulation of the core-shell structures of coaxial fibers based on GACES, which greatly limits the batch preparation and wide application of coaxial fibers. Finite element simulation analysis of the flow field and development of the coaxial jet mechanics model with a gas-driven flow field—two key methodologies in this study—successfully uncovered the influence mechanism of gas-assisted flow fields on the core-shell structures of coaxial nanofibers. By adjusting the gas-assisted flow fields parameters, we reduced the total diameter of coaxial fibers by 47.33% (average fiber diameter: 334.12 ± 16.29 nm → 175.98 ± 1.18 nm), decreased the shell thickness by 72.98%, increased the core-shell ratio by 289% (core-shell ratio: 0.49 → 1.91), and improved the uniformity of the total diameter distribution of coaxial fibers by 30.64%. This study delivers a practical conceptual framework and robust experimental underpinnings for the scalable fabrication of coaxial nanofiber membranes with controllable core-shell structures, thereby promoting their practical application in semiconductor devices such as ultra-thin dielectric layers, precisely structured encapsulation materials, and high-uniformity templates for nanoscale circuit patterning.
Semiconductor miniaturization demands stricter material uniformity. Core-shell nanofibers, promising for semiconductor packaging and flexible circuits, face application limits due to traditional coaxial electrospinning’s electric field instability—causing poor fiber diameter uniformity and challenges with high-viscosity and low-conductivity solutions. To address this, airflow-assisted coaxial electrospinning leveraged airflow-electric field synergy to enhance fiber stretching. COMSOL Multiphysics 6.4 simulated the influence of different inner diameters of the air flow nozzles on the air flow field, while the response surface method optimized parameters. At 10 kPa air pressure, 16.71 kV voltage, and a gas nozzle inner diameter of 3.42 mm, nanofibers showed regular morphology with a diameter coefficient of variation as low as 9.2%. This study enables stable preparation of highly uniform core-shell nanofibers, providing key process support for their large-scale semiconductor application and advancing flexible electronics and photodetection.
The dynamic event-triggered (DET) formation control problem of a class of stochastic nonlinear multi-agent systems (MASs) with full state constraints is investigated in this article. Supposing that the human operator sends commands to the leader as control input signals, all followers keep formation through network topology communication. Under the command-filter-based backstepping technique, the radial basis function neural networks (RBF NNs) and the barrier Lyapunov function (BLF) are utilized to resolve the problems of unknown nonlinear terms and full state constraints, respectively. Furthermore, a DET control mechanism is proposed to reduce the occupation of communication bandwidth. The presented distributed formation control strategy guarantees that all signals of the MASs are semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded (SGUUB) in probability. Finally, the feasibility of the theoretical research result is demonstrated by a simulation example.
