In this paper, a class of linear systems with multiple time delays is studied. The problem of exponential stability of time-delay systems has been investigated by using Lyapunov functional method. We will convert the system of multiple time delays into a single time delay system and show that if the old system is stable then the new one is so. Then we investigate the stability of converted new ...

An artificial neural network can be used as an intelligent controller to control non-linear, dynamic system through learning. It can easily accommodate non-linearities and time dependencies. Most common multi-layer feed-forward neural networks have the drawbacks of large number of neurons and hidden layers required to deal with complex problems and require large training time. To overcome these...

in this paper, the numerical technique based on hybrid bernoulli and block-pulse functions has been developed to approximate the solution of system of linear volterra integral equations. system of volterra integral equations arose in many physical problems such as elastodynamic, quasi-static visco-elasticity and magneto-electro-elastic dynamic problems. these functions are formed by the hybridi...

in this paper, we apply the  homotopy analysis method (ham) for solving fuzzy  linear systems and present  the necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence of series solution obtained via the ham. also, we present a new criterion for choosing a proper value of convergence-control parameter $hbar$ when the ham is applied to linear system of equations. comparisons are made between the ...

in this paper‎, ‎first we propose a new method to approximate the solution of two-dimensional linear fuzzy fredholm integral equations of the second kind based on the fuzzy wavelet like operator‎. ‎then‎, ‎we discuss and investigate the convergence and error analysis of the proposed method‎. ‎finally‎, ‎to show the accuracy of the proposed method‎, ‎we present two numerical ‎examples.‎

In the present paper, the focus is on the evaluation of steel dual-system frame buildings using four main types of structural analysis (Linear Static, Linear Dynamic, Nonlinear Static and Nonlinear Dynamic Analyses) with regard to "Seismic Rehabilitation Code for Existing Buildings in Iran" (based on FEMA 273 and 356) where the first two authors of the article tend to follow the previous work (...

In this article, a numerical method based on  improvement of block-pulse functions (IBPFs) is discussed for solving the system of linear Volterra and Fredholm integral equations. By using IBPFs and their operational matrix of integration, such systems can be reduced to a linear system of algebraic equations. An efficient error estimation and associated theorems for the proposed method are also ...

A numerical method for solving linear integral equations of the second kind is formulated. Based on a special representation of vector forms of triangular functions and the related operational matrix of integration, the integral equation reduces to a linear system of algebraic equations. Generation of this system needs no integration, so all calculations can easily be implemented. Numerical res...
