The Strong Integral Input-to-State Stability Property in Dynamical Flow Networks

Dynamical flow networks serve as macroscopic models for, e.g., transportation networks, queuing networks, and distribution networks. While the flow dynamics in such networks follow the conservation of mass on the links, the outflow from each link is often ...

Invariant states in inclined layer convection. Part 1. Temporal transitions along dynamical connections between invariant states

Tobias Schneider, Florian Reetz

Thermal convection in an inclined layer between two parallel walls kept at different fixed temperatures is studied for fixed Prandtl number . Depending on the angle of inclination and the imposed temperature difference, the flow exhibits a large variety of ...

Uncertainty propagation for the design study of the PETALE experimental programme in the CROCUS reactor

Andreas Pautz, Vincent Pierre Lamirand, Axel Guy Marie Laureau, Dimitri Rochman

The PETALE experimental programme in the CROCUS reactor intends to provide integral measurements to constrain stainless steel nuclear data. This article presents the tools and the methodology developed to design and optimize the experiments, and its operat ...

Turbulent patterns in wall-bounded shear flows: invariant solutions and their bifurcations

Florian Reetz

When laminar shear flows in large wall-bounded domains transition to turbulence, the flow exhibits spatio-temporally chaotic dynamics. Despite its chaotic dynamics, the flow may self-organize into characteristic spatially periodic patterns of unknown origi ...

Dynamical Behavior and Stability Analysis of Hydromechanical Gates

Paolo Perona, Fabian Alexander Bernhard

This study revisits the stability of hydromechanical gates for upstream water surface regulation, also known as AMIL gates. AMIL gates are used in irrigation canals, where they are often installed in series. From the regulation perspective, instabilities a ...

An epidemiological model for proliferative kidney disease in salmonid populations

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto, Luca Carraro

Background: Proliferative kidney disease (PKD) affects salmonid populations in European and North-American rivers. It is caused by the endoparasitic myxozoan Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae, which exploits freshwater bryozoans and salmonids as hosts. Inciden ...

Dynamic stability of displacement-based atomistic/continuum coupling methods

Till Junge, Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux

We show that concurrent atomistic/continuum displacement-coupling methods are inherently unstable in the context of fully dynamic problems at finite temperature. The fundamental origin of the instability is the displacement coupling of two material descrip ...

Constrained Spectrum Control

Colin Neil Jones, Jean-Hubert Hours, Melanie Nicole Zeilinger

A novel Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) scheme is proposed in order to shape the harmonic response of constrained nonlinear systems. The salient ingredient is the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) of the system's output signal, which is constra ...

A General Family of Morphed Nonlinear Phase Oscillators with Arbitrary Limit Cycle Shape

Auke Ijspeert, Jesse van den Kieboom, Mostafa Ajallooeian

We present a general family of nonlinear phase oscillators which can exhibit arbitrary limit cycle shapes and infinitely large basins of attraction. This general family is the superset of familiar control methods like PD-control over a periodic reference, ...

Lectures on the Orbital Stability of Standing Waves and Application to the Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation

Charles Stuart

In the first part of these notes, we deal with first order Hamiltonian systems in the form Ju'(t) = del H(u(t)) where the phase space X may be in infinite dimensional so as to accommodate some partial differential equations. The Hamiltonian H is an element ...

Steady-state Solutions in Mathematical Models of Atrial Cell Electrophysiology and their Stability

Vincent Jacquemet

The steady states of the Fenton–Karma, the Courtemanche and the Nygren cell models were studied by determining the fixed points of the dynamical system describing their cell kinetics. The linear stability of the fixed points was investigated, as well as th ...

Real-time interaction over the Internet : quality of service and end-to-end adaptation for remote experimentation

Christophe Salzmann

This dissertation studied real-time interaction over the Internet (RTI2) in the context of remote experimentation where there is typically a person at the client side interacting with physical equipments at the server side. Remote experimentations of mecha ...
