Keywound pendulum clocks usually need to be wound once per week to keep the clock running. This is done by inserting the key into the clock in the holes in the dial (winding arbors). These may turn clockwise or counterclockwise to wind depending on the model. Wind until tight and don’t...

Because the control effect of the Backstepping method is better in the need for greater angular velocity input which in turn makes the adjustment time shorter and convergence faster. Of course, control effort is also an important part of the reason. In the asteroidal environment, the Cubli ...
