in the several past years, extended kalman filter (ekf) and unscented kalman filter (ukf) havebecame basic algorithm for state-variables and parameters estimation of discrete nonlinear systems.the ukf has consistently outperformed for estimation. sometimes least estimation error doesn't yieldwith ukf for the most nonlinear systems. in this paper, we use a new approach for a two variablesta...

We study a class of initial value problems for two-dimensional nonlinear wave equations. A new topological approach is applied to prove the existence at least two nonnegative classical solutions. The arguments are based upon recent theoretical result.

In this tool paper, we present the release of UPMurphi, a universal planner for PDDL+ domains. Planning for hybrid domains has found increasing attention in the planning community, motivated by the need to address more realistic scenarios. While a number of techniques for planning with a subset of PDDL+ domains have been proposed, UPMurphi is able to handle the full range of PDDL+ features, inc...

Optimal pacing strategies for cycling time trials have been treated in literature in numerous publications, e.g. Gordon (2005). Generally, the minimum time pacing is sought subject to a mechanical model and a physiological model. The mechanical model (Martin, 1998) comprises the pedaling power P and forces for gravity on a cycling track of varying slope, rolling resistance, aerodynamic drag, fr...

Nonlinear kinetics of both spinodal decomposition at early stages, and the dissolution of homogeneities formed during spinodal decomposition,is studied. Variation of the scattering intensity during a complete cycle consisting of a step temperature change from T i in the one-phase. region to T2 in the two-phase region, a period of spinodal decomposition followed by a temperature drop from T2 bac...

Given two analytic nonlinear input-output systems represented as Fliess operators, four system interconnections are considered in a unified setting: the parallel connection, product connection, cascade connection, and feedback connection. In each case, the corresponding generating series is produced and conditions for the convergence of the corresponding Fliess operator are given. In the proces...

This paper presents a general overview of ow in deformable porous media with emphasis on melt extraction processes beneath mid-ocean ridges. Using a series of simple model problems, we show that the equations governing magma migration have two fundamentally different modes of behaviour. Compressible two-phase ow governs the separation of melt from the solid and forms a non-linear wave equation ...

annihilation or reduction of each kind of noise blended in correct data signals is a field that has attracted many researchers. it is a fact that fuzzy theory presents full capability in this field. fuzzy filters are often strong in smoothing corrupted signals, whereas they have simple structures. in this paper, a new powerful yet simple fuzzy procedure is introduced for sharpness reduction in ...

in this paper, an optimal control of quadratic performance index with nonlinear constrained is presented. the sine-cosine wavelet operational matrix of integration and product matrix are introduced and applied to reduce nonlinear differential equations to the nonlinear algebraic equations. then, the newton-raphson method is used for solving these sets of algebraic equations. to present ability ...
