in this paper, an observer based fuzzy adaptive controller (fac) is designed fora class of large scale systems with non-canonical non-affine nonlinear subsystems. it isassumed that functions of the subsystems and the interactions among subsystems areunknown. by constructing a new class of state observer for each follower, the proposedconsensus control method solves the problem of unmeasured sta...

Abstract T his paper is to convince the usage of the nonlinear unit root tests when dealing with a nonlinear model. To do so, the stationary test for variables in a model titles “Fiscal Reaction Function in Iran” has been applied according to both the ordinary and the Nonlinear Dickey-Fuller (NDF) tests. Results show that while variables under investigation are stationary ...

this paper presents the high order frequency-amplitude relationship for nonlinear transversely vibrating beams with odd and even nonlinearities using homotopy perturbation method with an auxiliary term (hpmat). the governing equations of vibrating buckled beam, beam carrying an intermediate lumped mass and quintic nonlinear beam are investigated to exhibit the reliability and ability of the pro...

this paper presents a theoretical approach to implementation of the “multi-realization of nonlinear mimo systems”. this method aims to find state-variable realization for a set of systems, sharing as many parameters as possible. in this paper a special nonlinear multi-realization problem, namely the multi-realization of feedback linearizable nonlinear systems is considered and an algorithm for ...

in this paper, nonlinear vibration and instability response of an embedded pipe conveying viscose fluid is investigated. the pipe is considered as a timoshenko beam embedded on an elastic foundation which is simulated by spring constant of the winkler-model and the shear constant of the pasternak-model. the external flow force, acting on the beam in the direction of the flexural displacement is...

nonlinear hunting speeds of railway vehicles running on a tangent track are analytically obtained using hopf bifurcation theory in this paper. the railway vehicle model consists of nonlinear primary yaw dampers, nonlinear flange contact stiffness as well as the clearance between the wheel flange and rail tread. linear and nonlinear critical speeds are obtained using bogoliubov method. a compreh...

in this paper, under appropriate oscillating behaviours of the nonlinear term, we prove some multiplicity results for a class of nonlinear fractional equations. these problems have a variational structure and we find three solutions for them by exploiting an abstract result for smooth functionals defined on a reflexive banach space. to make the nonlinear methods work, some careful analysis of t...

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...

the numerical methods are of great importance for approximating the solutions of nonlinear ordinary or partial differential equations, especially when the nonlinear differential equation under consideration faces difficulties in obtaining its exact solution. in this latter case, we usually resort to one of the efficient numerical methods. in this paper, the chebyshev collocation method is sugge...
