This paper presents a computationally-fast inverse dynamics model based on unit quaternion orientation representation for use in the generation of unmanned aircraft trajectories when the flight envelope may include all flight path orientations, a necessary attribute for aerobatics or unmanned air-to-air combat vehicles. The model removes the inherent singularities in Euler-angle attitude repres...

We have recently introduced the notion of a q-quaternion bialgebra and shown its strict link with the SOq(4)-covariant quantum Euclidean space R 4 q. Adopting the available differential geometric tools on the latter and the quaternion language we have formulated and found solutions of the (anti)selfduality equation [instantons and multi-instantons] of a would-be deformed su(2) Yang-Mills theory...

in this paper, we present a numerical algorithm for solving matrix equations $(a otimes b)x = f$  by extending the well-known gaussian elimination for $ax = b$. the proposed algorithm has a high computational efficiency. two numerical examples are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

The usual formulas for the correlation functions in orthogonal and symplectic matrix models express them as quaternion determinants. From this representation one can deduce formulas for spacing probabilities in terms of Fredholm determinants of matrix-valued kernels. The derivations of the various formulas are somewhat involved. In this article we present a direct approach which leads immediate...

systems in which reaction terms are coupled to diffusion and advection transports arise in awide range of chemical engineering applications, physics, biology and environmental. in these cases, thecomponents of the unknown can denote concentrations or population sizes which represent quantities andthey need to remain positive. classical finite difference schemes may produce numerical drawbacks s...

in this paper operational matrix of bernstein polynomials (bps) is used to solve bratu equation. this nonlinear equation appears in the particular elecotrospun nanofibers fabrication process framework. elecotrospun organic nanofibers have been used for a large variety of filtration applications such as in non-woven and filtration industries. by using operational matrix of fractional integration...

in this paper, we present a computational method for solving boundary integral equations with loga-rithmic singular kernels which occur as reformulations of a boundary value problem for the laplacian equation. themethod is based on the use of the galerkin method with cas wavelets constructed on the unit interval as basis.this approach utilizes the non-uniform gauss-legendre quadrature rule for ...

In this chapter, the problem of quaternion beamformer based on linear and widely linear hypercomplex processing is investigated in scenarios, where there exist one signal and one interference that are uncorrelated. First, we introduce brief information about the quaternion algebra and a quaternion model of linear symmetric array with twocomponent electromagnetic (EM) vector-sensors is presented...
