The differential quadrature method (DQM) is one of the most elegant and useful approximate methods for solving initial and/or boundary value problems. It is easy to use and also straightforward to implement. However, the conventional DQM is well-known to have some difficulty in implementing multiple initial and/or boundary conditions at a given discrete point. To overcome this difficulty, this ...

This paper describes the design and optimization of voltage controlled oscillators with quadrature outputs. Systematic design of fully integrated LC-VCOs with a high inductance tank leads to a cross-coupled double core LC-VCO as the optimal solution in terms of power consumption. Futhermore, a novel fully differential frequency tuning concept is introduced to ease high integration. The concepts...

The method of differential quadrature is employed to analyze the free vibration of a cracked cantilever beam resting on elastic foundation. The beam is made of a functionally graded material and rests on a Winkler-Pasternak foundation. The crack action is simulated by a line spring model. Also, the differential quadrature method with a geometric mapping are applied to study the free vibration o...

This paper extends the application of Differential Quadrature Method (DQM) for finding the numerical solution of general singularly perturbed two point boundary value problems with a boundary layer at right end point or both end point or at an internal point. The Differential Quadrature Method is an efficient descritization technique in solving initial and /or boundary value problems accurately...

Abstract This paper studies the problem of construction of optimal quadrature formulas in the sense of Sard in the space ( ) 2 (0,1) m L . In this paper the quadrature sum consists of values of the integrand and its first derivative at nodes. The coefficients of optimal quadrature formulas are found and the norm of the optimal error functional is calculated for arbitrary natural number 1 N m ≥ ...
