On the Stability of Constraint Propagation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The divergence of the constraint quantities is a major problem in computational gravity today. Apparently, there are two sources for constraint violations. The use of boundary conditions which are not compatiblewith the constraint equations inadvertently leads to ‘constraint violatingmodes’ propagating into the computational domain from the boundary. The other source for constraint violation is intrinsic. It is already present in the initial value problem, i.e. even when no boundary conditions have to be specified. Its origin is due to the instability of the constraint surface in the phase space of initial conditions for the time evolution equations. Our aim in this paper is to investigate one reason for this instability which is due to the choice of the time foliation. We demonstrate this for the Weyl system because this is the essential hyperbolic part in various formulations of the Einstein equations.

Optimal Design of Geometrically Nonlinear Structures Under a Stability Constraint
This paper suggests an optimization-based methodology for the design of minimum weight structures with kinematic nonlinear behavior. Attention is focused on three-dimensional reticulated structures idealized with beam elements under proportional static loadings. The algorithm used for optimization is based on a classical optimality criterion approach using an active-set strategy for extreme lim...
متن کاملCrack Tip Constraint for Anisotropic Sheet Metal Plate Subjected to Mode-I Fracture
On the ground of manufacturing, sheet metal parts play a key role as they cover about half of the production processes. Sheet metals are commonly obtained from rolling and forming processes which causes misalignment of micro structure resulting obvious anisotropic characteristics and micro cracks. Presence of micro cracks poses serious attention, when stresses at the tip reach to the critical v...
متن کاملA Constraint Propagation Algorithm for Determining the Stability Margin of Linear Parameter Circuits and Systems
The paper addresses the stability margin assessment for linear systems under interval parameter uncertainties. The original robust stability problem is initially transformed into an equivalent problem of estimating the eigenvalues ranges of matrices whose elements are non-linear functions of independent interval parameters. A new algorithm for finding the exact value of stability margin (within...
متن کاملPreventing Instability Phenomenon in Gas-lift Optimization
One of the problems that sometimes occur in gas allocation optimization is instability phenomenon. This phenomenon reduces the oil production and damages downhole and surface facilities. Different works have studied the stability and suggested some solutions to override it, but most of them (such as making the well intelligent) are very expensive and thus they are not applicable to many cases. ...

Daily price limits are adopted by many securities exchanges in countries such as the USA, Canada, Japan and various other countries in Europe and Asia, in order to increase the stability of the financial market. These limits confine the price of the financial asset during all trading stages of any trading day to a range, usually determined based on the previous day’s closing price. In this pape...
