A New Numerical Method for Axisymmetrical Forming Processes
1987
Summary In this paper a numerical method for the analysis of axisymmetrical forming processes is proposed. This method represents the last development of a previous one which allows to solve forming problems in plane strain condition. The proposed model is baaed on the finite element discretization and on the linearization of the yield surface which leads to solve a LP problem. Two different examples of application, concerning the upsetting of a cylinder and of a hollow disk are reported.
Non Gaussian closure techniques for the analysis of R-FBI isolation system
1997
The Resilient-Friction Base Isolator (R-FBI) stochastic response under severe ground motion modelled as a stationary and non-stationary zero mean stochastic white noise processes is performed. The moment equation approach is applied and the non-normal response is obtained by means of a non-Gaussian closure technique, based on the Gram-Charlier asymptotic expansion of the response probability density function. Results are compared with the equivalent non linearization technique and with results obtained by means of Monte Carlo simulation.
Solution to nonlinear MHDS arising from optimal growth problems
2011
Abstract In this paper we propose a method for solving in closed form a general class of nonlinear modified Hamiltonian dynamic systems (MHDS). This method is used to analyze the intertemporal optimization problem from endogenous growth theory, especially the cases with two controls and one state variable. We use the exact solutions to study both uniqueness and indeterminacy of the optimal path when the dynamic system has not a well-defined isolated steady state. With this approach we avoid the linearization process, as well as the reduction of dimension technique usually applied when the dynamic system offers a continuum of steady states or no steady state at all.
Determining an unbounded potential for an elliptic equation with a power type nonlinearity
2022
In this article we focus on inverse problems for a semilinear elliptic equation. We show that a potential $q$ in $L^{n/2+\varepsilon}$, $\varepsilon>0$, can be determined from the full and partial Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. This extends the results from [M. Lassas, T. Liimatainen, Y.-H. Lin, and M. Salo, Partial data inverse problems and simultaneous recovery of boundary and coefficients for semilinear elliptic equations, Rev. Mat. Iberoam. (2021)] where this is shown for H\"older continuous potentials. Also we show that when the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map is restricted to one point on the boundary, it is possible to determine a potential $q$ in $L^{n+\varepsilon}$. The authors of arXiv:2202.0…
Inverse problems for elliptic equations with fractional power type nonlinearities
2020
We study inverse problems for semilinear elliptic equations with fractional power type nonlinearities. Our arguments are based on the higher order linearization method, which helps us to solve inverse problems for certain nonlinear equations in cases where the solution for a corresponding linear equation is not known. By using a fractional order adaptation of this method, we show that the results of [LLLS20a, LLLS20b] remain valid for general power type nonlinearities.
Booton's problem re-examined
1998
The application of the stochastic linearization technique to the specific problem analyzed by Booton is reexamined. It is shown that Booton has made a subtle error in the procedure for minimization of the mean square force difference between the sharp limiter and its linear equivalent counterpart
On the performance of a linearized dual parallel Mach Zehnder electro-optic modulator
2014
The performance of a dual parallel differential Mach-Zehnder modulator broadband linearization architecture is analysed. This study provides experimental and analytical results showing an enhancement up to 20 dB in the 3rd-order intermodulation distortion factor at 5 GHz using RF and optical asymmetrical feeding factors.
Gain-scheduled H-infinity observer design for nonlinear stochastic systems with time-delay and actuator saturation
2012
In this paper, we propose a method for designing continuous gain-scheduled robust H ∞ observer on a class of extended stochastic nonlinear systems subject to time delay and actuator saturation. Initially, gradient linearization procedure is applied to describe such extended nonlinear systems into several model-based linear systems. Next, a robust linear H ∞ observer is designed to such linear stochastic models. Subsequently, a convex hull set is investigated and sufficient condition is derived in terms of feedback observer to determine whether a given initial condition belongs to an ellipsoid invariant set. Finally, continuous gain-scheduled approach is employed to design continuous nonline…

H<inf>&#x221E;</inf> control of markovian switching systems with time-delays: Applied to DC-DC converters
2011
The DC-DC switching power converters are highly nonlinear systems. Consequently, the conventional linear controls based on averaging and linearization techniques will result in poor dynamic performance or system instability. In order to resolve this problem, in this paper a robust state feedback H∞ control is proposed for these systems under Markovian switching with mixed discrete, neutral and distributed delays. Based on the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional theory, some required sufficient conditions are established in terms of delay-dependent linear matrix inequalities for the stochastic stability and stabilization of the considered system using some free matrices. The desired control is de…
