A novel family of controllable, dissipative structure-dependent integration methods is derived from an eigen-based theory, where the concept of the eigenmode can give a solid theoretical basis for the feasibility of this type of integration methods. In fact, the concepts of eigen-decomposition and modal superposition are involved in solving a multiple degree of freedom system. The total solution of a coupled equation of motion consists of each modal solution of the uncoupled equation of motion. Hence, an eigen-dependent integration method is proposed to solve each modal equation of motion and an approximate solution can be yielded via modal superposition with only the first few modes of interest for inertial problems. All the eigen-dependent integration methods combine to form a structure-dependent integration method. Some key assumptions and new techniques are combined to successfully develop this family of integration methods. In addition, this family of integration methods can be either explicitly or implicitly implemented. Except for stability property, both explicit and implicit implementations have almost the same numerical properties. An explicit implementation is more computationally efficient than for an implicit implementation since it can combine unconditional stability and explicit formulation simultaneously. As a result, an explicit implementation is preferred over an implicit implementation. This family of integration methods can have the same numerical properties as those of the WBZ-α method for linear elastic systems. Besides, its stability and accuracy performance for solving nonlinear systems is also almost the same as those of the WBZ-α method. It is evident from numerical experiments that an explicit implementation of this family of integration methods can save many computational efforts when compared to conventional implicit methods, such as the WBZ-α method.

In discrete-time controlled system, sampling time is one of the critical parameters for control performance. It is useful to employ different sampling rates into the system considering the feasibility of measuring system or actuating system. The systems with the different sampling rates in their input and output channels are named multirate system. Even though the original continuous-time system is time-invariant, it is realized as time-varying state equation depending on multirate sampling mechanism. By means of the augmentation of the inputs and the outputs over one Period, the time-varying system equation can be constructed into the time-invariant equation. In this paper, an alternative time-invariant model is proposed, the design method and the stability of the LQG (Linear Quadratic Gaussian) control scheme for the realization are presented. The realization is flexible to construct to the sampling rate variations, the closed-loop system is shown to be asymptotically stable even in the inter-sampling intervals and it has smaller computation in on-line control loop than the previous time-invariant realizations.

The design of current collection system of high speed train requires the fundamental understandings for the dynamic characteristics of catenary system and pantograph. The stiffness of catenary system of high speed train has the varying characteristics for the change of contact point with pantograph, since the supporting pole and hanger make the different boundary conditions for the up-down stiffness of a trolley wire. The variation of stiffness results in Mathiue equation, which characterizes the stability of the system. However, the two-term variation of the stiffness due to span length and hanger distance cannot be solved analytically. In this paper, the stiffness variations are calculated and the physical reasoning of linear model and one term Mathieu equation are reviewed. And the numerical analysis for the two-term variation of the stiffness is done for the several design parameters of pantograph.

Inner diameter of bearing race is automatically measured by complete inspection system after grinding process. Contact type three points supporting method is widely applied to automatic inner diameter measurement because of its excellent stability. However, the geometric consideration regarding three points supporting method is not sufficient. In this study, the error equation from geometric error analysis of three points supporting method is found. The effect of factors in the error equation is also investigated. The error equation is linear for difference of diameter in sample and master on range of tolerance. An error becomes more and more larger, when the distance of two supporting balls or the diameter of supporting ball are increased. In the result, some considerations are proposed for measurement of inner diameter by the three points supporting method.

In this paper, we investigate many types of stability, like (uniform stability, exponential stability and h-stability) of the first order dynamic equations of the form $$\{u^{\Delta}(t)=Au(t)+f(t),\;\;t{\in}{\mathbb{T}},\;t>t_0\\u(t_0)=x{\in}D(A),$$ and $$\{u^{\Delta}(t)=Au(t)+f(t,u),\;\;t{\in}{\mathbb{T}},\;t>t_0\\u(t_0)=x{\in}D(A),$$ in terms of the stability of the homogeneous equation $$\{u^{\Delta}(t)=Au(t),\;\;t{\in}{\mathbb{T}},\;t>t_0\\u(t_0)=x{\in}D(A),$$ where f is rd-continuous in $t{\in}{\mathbb{T}}$ and with values in a Banach space X, with f(t, 0) = 0, and A is the generator of a $C_0$-semigroup $\{T(t):t{\in}{\mathbb{T}}\}{\subset}L(X)$, the space of all bounded linear operators from X into itself. Here D(A) is the domain of A and ${\mathbb{T}}{\subseteq}{\mathbb{R}}^{{\geq}0}$ is a time scale which is an additive semigroup with property that $a-b{\in}{\mathbb{T}}$ for any $a,b{\in}{\mathbb{T}}$ such that a > b. Finally, we give illustrative examples.

Variable step size maximum power point trackers (MPPTs) are widely used in photovoltaic (PV) systems to extract the peak array power which depends on solar irradiation and array temperature. One essential factor which judges system dynamics and steady state performances is the scaling factor (N), which is used to update the controlling equation in the tracking algorithm to determine a new duty cycle. This paper proposes a novel stability study of variable step size incremental resistance maximum power point tracking (INR MPPT). The main contribution of this analysis appears when developing the overall small signal model of the PV system. Therefore, by using linear control theory, the boundary value of the scaling factor can be determined. The theoretical analysis and the design principle of the proposed stability analysis have been validated using MATLAB simulations, and experimentally using a fixed point digital signal processor (TMS320F2808).

In this paper, a class of delayed predator-prey models of prey migration and predator switching is considered. By analyzing the associated characteristic transcendental equation, its linear stability is investigated and Hopf bifurcation is demonstrated. Some explicit formulae for determining the stability and the direction of the Hopf bifurcation periodic solutions bifurcating from Hopf bifurcations are obtained by using the normal form theory and center manifold theory. Some numerical simulations for justifying the theoretical analysis are also provided. Finally, biological explanations and main conclusions are given.

The Conventional time-domain simulation of transient stability requires iterative calculation procedures to consider the saliency of generator. Recently, a non-iterative algorithm has successfully developed to take into account the generator saliency exactly with the use of $E_q'$-model. This study proposes an extended non-iterative algorithm by adopting the two-axis generator model. Given internal voltages and rotor angles of the generators, network voltages and generator currents can be directly calculated by solving a linear algebraic equation, which enables us to reduce the computation time remarkably.

In this paper, we deal with the stability condition of linear time-varying interval discrete systems with time-varying delays and unstructured uncertainty. For the time-varying interval discrete system which has interval matrix as its system matrices, time-varying delay time within some interval value and unstructured uncertainty which can include non-linearity and be expressed by only its magnitude, the stability condition is proposed. Compared with the previous result derived by using a upper bound solution of the Lyapunov equation, the new result is derived by the form of simple inequality based on Lyapunov stability condition and has the advantage of being more effective in checking stability. Furthermore, the proposed condition is very comprehensive, powerful and inclusive the previously published conditions of various linear discrete systems, and can be expressed by the terms of magnitudes of the time-varying delay time and uncertainty, and bounds of interval matrices. The superiority of the new condition is shown in the derivation, and the usefulness and advantage of the proposed condition are examined through numerical example.
