Numerical methods for a nonlinear impact model: A comparative study with closed-form corrections
2011
A physically based impact model-already known and exploited in the field of sound synthesis-is studied using both analytical tools and numerical simulations. It is shown that the Hamiltonian of a physical system composed of a mass impacting on a wall can be expressed analytically as a function of the mass velocity during contact. Moreover, an efficient and accurate approximation for the mass outbound velocity is presented, which allows to estimate the Hamiltonian at the end of the contact. Analytical results are then compared to numerical simulations obtained by discretizing the system with several numerical methods. It is shown that, for some regions of the parameter space, the trajectorie…

Stability of stochastic nonlinear systems with state-dependent switching
2013
In this paper, the problem of stability on stochastic systems with state-dependent switching is investigated. To analyze properties of the switched system by means of Itô’s formula and Dynkin’s formula, it is critical to show switching instants being stopping times. When the given active-region set can be replaced by its interior, the local solution of the switched system is constructed by defining a series of stopping times as switching instants, and the criteria on global existence and stability of solution are presented by Lyapunov approach. For the case where the active-region set can not be replaced by its interior, the switched systems do not necessarily have solutions, thereby quasi-…
A Sub-Supersolution Approach for Robin Boundary Value Problems with Full Gradient Dependence
2020
The paper investigates a nonlinear elliptic problem with a Robin boundary condition, which exhibits a convection term with full dependence on the solution and its gradient. A sub- supersolution approach is developed for this type of problems. The main result establishes the existence of a solution enclosed in the ordered interval formed by a sub-supersolution. The result is applied to find positive solutions.
Hysteretic Systems Subjected to Delta Correlated Input
1994
The paper deals with the evaluation of the probabilistic response of a single degree of freedom elastic-perfectly plastic system subjected to a delta correlated input process. The probabilistic characterisation of the response is here obtained by considering the accumulated plastic deformations as a compound homogeneous Poisson process independent of the external input. In this case the former can be considered as an external noise acting on the linear system. A closed form solution is also obtained and the analytic expression is compared with the customary Monte-Carlo method.
Robust H<inf>&#x221E;</inf> control of Markovian jump systems with mixed time delays
2010
In this paper, the problem of stability analysis and control synthesis for Markovian jump linear systems with time delays and norm-bounded uncertainties is studied. The model under consideration consists of different time-invariant discrete, neutral and distributed delays. Delay-dependent sufficient conditions for the design of a mode-dependent delayed state feedback H ∞ control are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). A controller which guarantees stochastic stability and a prescribed level of H ∞ performance for the closed-loop system is then developed. A Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) method underlies the control design. A numerical example with simulation results i…
Non-Stationary Probabilistic Response of Linear Systems Under Non-Gaussian Input
1991
The probabilistic characterization of the response of linear systems subjected to non-normal input requires the evaluation of higher order moments than two. In order to obtain the equations governing these moments, in this paper the extension of the Ito’s differential rule for linear systems excited by non-normal delta correlated processes is presented. As an application the case of the delta correlated compound Poisson input process is treated.
Non Linear Systems Under Complex α-Stable Le´vy White Noise
2003
The problem of predicting the response of linear and nonlinear systems under Levy white noises is examined. A method of analysis is proposed based on the observation that these processes have impulsive character, so that the methods already used for Poisson white noise or normal white noise may be also recast for Levy white noises. Since both the input and output processes have no moments of order two and higher, the response is here evaluated in terms of characteristic function.Copyright © 2003 by ASME
Sliding mode exponential H<inf>&#x221E;</inf> synchronization of Markovian jumping master-slave systems with time-delays and nonlinea…
2011
This paper investigates the problem of exponential H ∞ synchronization for a class of master-slave systems with both discrete and distributed time-delays, norm-bounded nonlinear uncertainties and Markovian switching parameters. Using an appropriate Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, some delay-dependent sufficient conditions and a synchronization law which include the master-slave parameters are established for designing a delay-dependent mode-dependent sliding mode exponential H ∞ synchronization control law in terms of linear matrix inequalities. The controller guarantees the H ∞ synchronization of the two coupled master and slave systems regardless of their initial states. A numerical examp…
Non-linear systems under parametric alpha-stable LÉVY WHITE NOISES
2005
In this study stochastic analysis of nonlinear dynamical systems under a-stable, multiplicative white noise has been performed. Analysis has been conducted by means of the Ito rule extended to the case of α-stable noises. In this context the order of increments of Levy process has been evaluated and differential equations ruling the evolutions of statistical moments of either parametrically and external dynamical systems have been obtained. The extended Ito rule has also been used to yield the differential equation ruling the evolution of the characteristic function for parametrically excited dynamical systems. The Fourier transform of the characteristic function, namely the probability den…
