Problems of computing Lyapunov exponents in power electronics

چکیده
Ideal power converters are governed by differential equations with discontinuous right-hand sides. General-purpose algorithms to compute their Lyapunov exponents assume smooth equations, so are not directly applicable to power electronics. We review the methods and their problems, focusing on the largest Lyapunov exponent, which dominates system behavior. The variational approach can incorporate an algorithm by Müller (1995) to cope with the discontinuities found in power electronics. As an example, the method is applied to verify chaos in a buck dc-dc converter.

Chaotic Response and Bifurcation Analysis of a Timoshenko Beam with Backlash Support Subjected to Moving Masses
A simply supported Timoshenko beam with an intermediate backlash is considered. The beam equations of motion are obtained based on the Timoshenko beam theory by including the dynamic effect of a moving mass travelling along the vibrating path. The equations of motion are discretized by using the assumed modes technique and solved using the Runge–Kutta method. The analysis methods employed in...
متن کاملReduction of Energy Consumption in Mobile Cloud Computing by Classification of Demands and Executing in Different Data Centers
In recent years, mobile networks have faced with the increase of traffic demand. By emerging mobile applications and cloud computing, Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) has been introduced. In this research, we focus on the 4th and 5th generation of mobile networks. Data Centers (DCs) are connected to each other by high-speed links in order to minimize delay and energy consumption. By considering a ...
متن کاملControlled test for predictive power of Lyapunov exponents: their inability to predict epileptic seizures.
Lyapunov exponents are a set of fundamental dynamical invariants characterizing a system's sensitive dependence on initial conditions. For more than a decade, it has been claimed that the exponents computed from electroencephalogram (EEG) or electrocorticogram (ECoG) signals can be used for prediction of epileptic seizures minutes or even tens of minutes in advance. The purpose of this paper is...
متن کاملSpurious Lyapunov Exponents Computed Using the Eckmann - Ruelle Procedure
Lyapunov exponents, important invariants of a complicated dynamical process, can be difficult to determine from experimental data. In particular, when using embedding theory to build chaotic attractors in a reconstruction space, extra “spurious” Lyapunov exponents can arise that are not Lyapunov exponents of the original system. By studying the local linearization matrices that are key to a pop...
متن کاملWeakly Coupled Distributed Calculation of Lyapunov Exponents for Non-Linear Dynamical Systems
Numerical estimation of Lyapunov exponents in non-linear dynamical systems results in a very high computational cost. This is due to the large-scale computational cost of several Runge–Kutta problems that need to be calculated. In this work we introduce a parallel implementation based on MPI (Message Passing Interface) for the calculation of the Lyapunov exponents for a multidimensional dynamic...
