After a brief comprehensive review of old and new results on the well known Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) conservative system of N nonlinearly coupled oscillators, we present a compact linear mode representation of the Hamiltonian of the FPU system with quartic nonlinearity and periodic boundary conditions, with explicitly computed mode coupling coefficients. The core of the paper is the proof of the ...

In this paper, the architecture of kernel-mode and user-mode webservers and the constraints that affect their performance are studied. A set of experiments have been performed to measure and analyze performance of kernel-mode and user-mode web servers on an open source Scientific Linux CERN platform. Web servers under study include kernel-mode TUX web server and user-mode Apache web server for ...

Damage assessment is one of the crucial topics in the operation of structures. Multiplicities of structural elements and joints are the main challenges about damage assessment of space structure. Vibration-based damage evaluation seems to be effective and useful for application in industrial conditions and the low-cost. A method is presented to detect and assess structural damages from changes ...

This paper discusses fuzzy sliding mode controller applied for induction motor field oriented control with space-vector pulse-width modulated inverter. The speed control is obtained by controlling the inverter switching frequency determined by the reference voltage resulted by the controller. Simulation results show that fuzzy sliding mode controller performed satisfactorily and better compared...

Reflective LCDs (RLCDs) have high brightness and are free from viewing parallax. They also cost less materials to construct and are compatible with existing manufacturing and driving practices. In this paper, a parameter space description of RLCD as a function of polarizer angle, liquid crystal twist angle and birefringence is discussed. It is shown that all published RLCD modes can be depicted...
