A Dynamical System Approach to the Simulation of Coach Passenger Variation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we for the first time propose a dynamical system (DS) approach to describe the time variation of the coach travel. This dynamical study for the analysis and modeling is of several advantages. First, it can be used for dynamical analysis, such as quantitative, stability, and equilibrium analysis. Second, it can be further applied to analyze the competition behaviors among various operators in the coach industry. Under some proper assumptions, the ordinary differential equation (ODE) model is formulated together with the collected data to describe the passenger variation. We solve this first order ODE with an analytical technique, and find the result fits the collected data. Some concluding remarks and future works are also suggested in this work. Key-Words: DS, ODE, Deregulation, Scheduled Express Service

This paper is has addressed the Single Flexible Link Robot. The dynamical model is derived using Euler-Lagrange equation and then a proper controller is designed to suppress a vibration based-on Input-Shaping (IS) method. But, IS control method is an open loop strategy. Due to the weakness of open loop control systems, a closed loop IS control system is proposed. The achieved closed loop c...
