This book will be of great interest to researchers and advanced students approaching nanotechnology from a range of disciplines, including materials science and engineering, chemistry, chemical engineering, electronics, energy, biomedicine, environmental science, food science, and agriculture, as well as scientists, engineers, and R&D professionals with an interest in the use of nanomaterials across a range of industries.

This book focuses on solving different types of time-varying problems. It presents various Zhang dynamics (ZD) models by defining various Zhang functions (ZFs) in real and complex domains. It then provides theoretical analyses of such ZD models and illustrates their results. It also uses simulations to substantiate their efficacy and show the feasibility of the presented ZD approach (i.e., different ZFs leading to different ZD models), which is further applied to the repetitive motion planning (RMP) of redundant robots, showing its application potential.
